I have Vista Home Premium 32bit. When my PC becomes idle for different periods of time, my desktop freezes. The little blue circle doesn't move, mouse doesn't work, Ctrl, Alt, Delete doesn't work. I have to turn it off and on again to get it to work. As long as the system stays busy with something in motion, everything is terrific. This has been going on for a couple of weeks &...

Hi all, For a few weeks my Laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) had been randomly freezing, and earlier today it froze. I did what I usually do, which was restart and wait, but this time it just wouldn't turn on; it kept telling me it had failed to start correctly. After trying again and again with the system repair, with no luck, I tried safe mode, which still wouldn't work. After exploring different...

Why is it all of the sudden anything I choose as a desktop background is enlarged and out of focus? Not just images I've downloaded, but the "stock" backgrounds offered by Windows. I'm getting close-ups on both. I've tried re-sizing them but no soap. I haven't changed any resolution settings either. What gives?

Hoping someone can help me out here. I'm running 64bit Vista Ultimate on my pc and it just will not power off when I click hibernate. Instead it just reboots. I have the settings all set the same as another computer in my house which powers down properly. I would appreciate if anyone could help me out...starting to go a little crazy over here :confused: --

I have a laptop and would like to be able to use it at Starbucks or Panera Bread. I don't understand how it works. Is there a charge and more importantly, how do I connect? Will all laptops connect or do I need a particular software? At home I use a router from my desktop.
