You can cancel it anytime. Even if not complete, the shredding tool will have deleted the partition table. You can create this again in Windows Disk Management and then format the drive (with quick enabled).

Shredding is always slow because it writes many times to the drive to securely erase the contents. If you just want to clear the drive, format the drive in Windows and tick the "quick" option.

These are ok I guess. The second one has higher output, but you will need to mount it in a box or something and buy a power supply. It really depends on the sound quality and volume you are looking for. These are pretty basic. The power ratings are probably PMPO, which is not a good indicator of...

If there are four connections on the back, these are likely just common and active for each channel (left + right). This means there should be a crossover in the box to limit frequency ranges to each speaker. The input impedance on the crossover is likely 6 ohm or 8 ohm. Most AV receivers or...

You likely have to enable ARC in the TV, and only one HDMI input on the TV will support it. If the sound bar is receiving 5.1 Dolby Digital, this should appear whether you have additional speakers connected or not.

You won't get any more bass from the M10 than you will from the m200mkii. They are not in the same league for audio quality and the tiny little subwoofer of the M10 is simply trying to fill in the bass below 100 Hz that the small satellites cannot reproduce.

You say the m200mkii is too expensive, so which model are you looking at other than M10? The m200mkii speakers are monitor quality stereo speakers. Very good reproduction from 53 Hz, but no sub woofer. The D1080MKII are the cheaper alternative. The M10 get pretty good reviews for a 2.1 system...

HDMI 1.2 and earlier support up to 1920x1200 @ 60 Hz. You will need support for HDMI 1.3 or later in both your laptop and monitor for 2560x1440 (QHD). Note that not all QHD monitors have this support, some support 2560x1440 using DisplayPort or Dual-link DVI inputs and lower resolutions using...

A 1920x1080 monitor with a HDMI input will work fine. Higher than that depends on the version of HDMI being used and the maximum resolution of that GT 940M, which doesn't appear to be published on the Nvidia website. If planning to run games you will need to choose fairly low settings with that...

Check your spam folder, other wise you should see the e-mail if yahoo received it. It is possible for an e-mail not to get through, but the sender should get a failure notice.

When comparing TVs in the store, you need to stand at the same distance as you will use it at home, and look from the right height. Standing next to a TV on a low stand will ruin the image because you are viewing from an angle vertically. Curved is of some small benefit if the screen is large...

HDMI, optical or coaxial will all send digital audio as Dolby Digital, DTS or PCM depending on the source and if there is any internal conversion. All can support Dolby Digital or DTS, but optical and coaxial are limited to 2-channel PCM as I understand it. I think audio from the PC will...

HDMI audio is a digital audio source just like optical or coaxial. The only way to have the audio decoded by the PC is to use individual analog outputs for each channel. You typically wouldn't want this as the decoder in a decent amp is better than the CODEC on your motherboard audio.
