Hi.. I'm running on Lenovo Ideapad Z570... 8g RAM, core i5.. would like to know what you guys suggest as for games?

Here is my advise. Stay away from Freeware unless Microsoft or reputable. I was sneak attacked by a Dolphin screen saver and Yohntoo. My Blue screen last a few seconds and had some intructions on it, but lasted on a few seconds and disappeared. So I re installed Windows. Couldn't help it. If...

Hi all, I have a load of Windows 7 laptops/pc's on a domain and wondered if the general feeling was to leave the default administrator acct disabled and create another local admin (although obviously I realise there will be domain admins as well) It was my understanding that leaving it...

Okay I have about 20 minutes before I have to leave, so I will make this brief: Last semester I could not connect to the WiFi my roommate had set up. It wasn't a big issue for me because I could have free internet through the school "ATTWIFI". I moved, and am now having the same exact problem...

Just last night after I was finished playing Skyrim for the night, I saw on steam that I had no connection. So I looked towards the internet bars icon next to the clock and saw a yello triangle with a "!" in it. So I disconnected and reconnected but still the yellow "!". So I just decided I...

There is some little software around to take ownership of files and folders in Windows 7. When I was installing Windows 7 Ultimate, I took ownership of all I could find. Then a few things no more worked and I had to reinstall... Luckily, I had almost only the basic installation done. I and...

I have been seeing a disturbing ammount of talk on the web, and it could have been there and I ju st didn't notice, about *d3d9* files issues. People talk like DX10 & DX11 are just upgrades to the DX lineup. That is not the case at all. Just because Vista comes with DX10 and 7 with DX11 doesn't...

I have to use Office Communicator at work - but unfortunately this is a huge distraction as every single message (and I have to be in a group chat) causes the taskbar to pop up and the icon to demand attention on the taskbar. This is even though I have gone to Properties and Customize and...
