    Cell Phone Memory Size-Is 16 GB enough

    I'm planning to upgrade my flip phone to a Droid Maxx soon, and it comes in a 16 gb and 32 gb internal memory size, with no ability to add any sort of card or anything to change/increase that. If I go to 16 gb it's free and I can just pick one up from the Verizon store, while if it's 32 gb I...

    Droid Maxx Questions

    Just wanted to make sure. It didnt really seem like there would be any differences between the two aside from storage and the OS it ships with, but I wanted to make sure there wasn't some slight hardware issue or improvement or something like that that newer made phones might get. But from what...

    Droid Maxx Questions

    The time has come for me to get a smartphone, and I was planning on getting the Droid Maxx. However, I am a bit confused about the different models. From what I've seen, there is a 16 gb and 32 gb version of this phone. However, apparently the Verizon store doesnt sell the 32 gb anymore and only...

    Itunes-Finding All My Stuff

    My Itunes library has been backed up/moved through several computers over the years, and since Itunes these days likes to store everything in folders it's a bit difficult to go to every folder when I want to see all my songs in one nice neat place. Adding to that, when some of my backups got a...

    A very odd laptop issue. intermittent power problems

    I could see that being a cause. You might want to test a working battery just to rule out everything, but if the board is on its way out then everything else is likely to have issues..the computer seems to think so at least

    Lenovo y510p problems

    You should look into getting a cooling pad if you want to game on a laptop such as something like: http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-NotePal-ErgoStand-Adjustable/dp/B003GCQ1YI/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1389727411&sr=8-7&keywords=cooler+master+cooling+pad for example (the one I got, research...

    A very odd laptop issue. intermittent power problems

    From what I understood the code said that there was an issue with the board, not the cpu

    A very odd laptop issue. intermittent power problems

    For number 3, was it a beep like a beep code from a motherboard speaker? I did a quick google search for beep codes and, assuming I found the right manual (ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_laptop/esuprt_xps_laptop/xps-17_setup%20guide_en-us.pdf), not sure if it's the right one, but...

    Approximate life on a gaming laptop?

    It also depends on what you use it for. If you play games that push the hardware a fair bit and often have high temperatures (due to usage) then that will likely decreases the lifetime. Proper maintenance is also helpful as stuff gets clogged with dust after a while. You could probably get 4...

    is lenovo y410p good for gaming?

    I second that advice about the cpu, it is a good upgrade for not much more. And keep in mind, the i7 has hyperthreading has well. This model is also always on sale it seems so if you can hit a good one you could probably get it for cheap. I don't think there is such a huge difference between...

    $1000 laptop with SSD and 8gb ram?

    I can get 4+ on my y410p from a full charge, even with some internet usage, assuming of course im not doing stuff like playing games or streaming a lot of things at once. It might be more than 1000 with the ssd but my sister has an asus zenbook and she loves it. It doesnt have much for graphics...

    Lenovo Y410p Owners

    I never had much in the way of wifi or touchpad issues. Although just in case I followed the advice of the linked thread and disabled some stuff (which I wasnt using anyway) and fiddled with some settings. From what I remember from the thread (it's been a few months) the intel proset software...

    Call the laptop manufacturer/place where you bought it from with some sort of proof of purchase and ask them, it's against the rules of this forum to tell you how to crack it
