You are looking at the laptop powering both displays simultaneously. Sorry for the dark pic, but you get the idea. The laptop screen is on the right - you...

    Quick question about USB

    I know that USB 2.0 ports can also access USB 1.1 devices, but can a USB 1.1 port access USB 2.0 devices (granted they would transfer at the 1.1 rate)? I'm looking at a jump drive (thumb drive, pen drive, disk on key, USB flash drive, whatever), and I need to know as my PC at work has USB...

    Viruses and System Restore

    I just cleaned an XP system of Viruses, spyware, trojans etc. AV and firewall functioning now. I dont want these back in the system. I just realized that my customer had System Restore turned on, so most likely the backup contains viruses and are stored somewhere in the system. If you turn...
