@rrojas260
Is the router set to use 802.11g in it's web-based configuration settings?
@701
The specs you mentioned sound fine for what you want to do, just make sure you get a decent graphics system like radeon mobility,
@p900
I'll take a propper look at your problem shortly and try to suss out what was going on

Assuming that the wireless cards in your PCs are 802.11g capable, you can change wireless mode from 'mixed mode' to 'g mode'. That might allow file transfers at the full rate.

As I said in my previous post, G mode didnt help (and yes, i have a 802.11g network card). I will try on my dad's pc to see if the problem is there too.

cant get floppy working on old pc. it has a disk thing at the bottom and if i plug it one power cable in the back (also connected to my cd copier) then the disc always spins. if i connect it to another power supply connected with a load of wires in the main bit then the disk only spins when s floppy is in. cable seems to be ok in the pc and have tried both ways in pc. on the motherboard it says "floppy" where the ide cable is and i plug the other end in the floppy with no luck. the reason i took them both out is because i kept getting write protection errors on this pcs floppy drive so couldnt coppy wid 95 onto a floppy at a time to install on old pc.

That's the problem with laptops and the video component: u hardly find a dedicated video card in the system. My offer says: " max 128 mb shred'', which means it's not dedicated but the video chipset IS Radeon 9200.Is that the same thing? That's all I can afford unfortunately.

Yes, the video memory will be shared in all but the most expensive laptops, but the 9200 should be sufficient for the type of games that you want to play

Bloody pc. When I boot my pc sometimes it loads into windows, but today it froze at the windows xp logo, then at the login screen and then at the blank screen between the xp logo and login screen.
Any idea’s?

Sounds like it might be a hardware problem to me, when it does feel like booting up, do you get any strange errors occasionally or wierd things happening like freezing up, restarting itself etc?

Ok, since I got no replies to my topic about Aerials for tv cards on laptops, i'll ask the proffesionals.
Quite simply, I want to be able to watch tv on my laptop, prefferably freeview channels (or if possible, some way to connect my Sky digital to my laptop).
What hardware/softare would I need?

Yeah, I got WME. Also have the PCMIA tuner card.
I'm just not sure how to get the channels. I did once plug a basic £5 indoor aerial, but at best I got 2 very unclear channels.
Do I need a special tuner card aerial, or can I use any indoor aerial?
