All of a sudden, my HP laptop cannot write to any of my sd cards. It says they are write-protected although they are not. I can write to my cards on cameras but not on my laptop. I have tried the trick with the tape but it doesn't work as it seems the trouble is on the laptop. I have tons of stuff on my laptop and it's big trouble to restore it. Is it actually Windows issue or hardware?

When I had 2gb of RAM Windows reported 1.86gb. I just doubled it to 4gb and it shows in the BIOS as 4gb but in Windows only 2.85gb. I realise that it's probably being eaten alive by my video and TV-FM cards plus other parerphernalia but isn't that loss a bit much? Is there anything I can do to improve matters or should I just ignore it? -- Peter Toronto, Canada XP Pro SP2 x 2 + Vista...

/Scott Thomas/ said: Given the massive upgrades that I've been reading about, is it really worth it to upgrade to Vista? Some of the upgrades people are talking about here cost +/- $1000 just to be able to run an untested Operating System. Is it really worth it? That is a subjective decision. For many, it is not worth it at this time. If a PC that is more than

I have just built a new system and after much trouble setting things up everything is finally running. The problem is, while my DVD drives are working, it is taking a LONG time for vista to access them making it virtually impossible to install any software/drivers from disc. When trying to access any information, the system will usually hang for 5-10 minutes before accessing the drive for 20...

I'm very frustrated... my subscore for graphics is 1.0 and it's telling me I don't have any memory set aside for graphics. So, I go and try to update that, and it tells me that I have the suggested device for my system. I then go to the properties of that device (ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Series) and it tells me this "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)"...
