two. Mysaelf, I ususally flatten my system and start from scratch again,
but this couple are newbies to computers.

Bluetooth audio receiver
Sat, 12 Jan 2008 20:50:24 GMT
Can I use Bluetooth to transmit audio played on my home PC to

pick up the audio broadcast from the PC dongle and then output an audio
signal into my self-powered speakers?
(I'm on bit of a budge ...

DVD from PowerPoint presentation
Sat, 12 Jan 2008 18:34:20 +0000
Is there any way that a Powerpoint presentation (images and sound,
auto-runs from slide to slide) can be put onto a DVD so that it runs
in a DVD player independent of a computer? (Somewhere, wasting space
on my HD I have Movie Maker, Virtual Dub and ZweiStein video editor,
none of which I've ever used but there's ...

You know the sort of site those that tell your cheapest car insurence etc.

WiFi radio?
Fri, 11 Jan 2008 08:06:58 GMT
I was intrigued to see these in the shops over Xmas, never having heard
of them before.
How do you set them up? Do you have to pre-program the channels you
want from a PC or something?
What about security - can you use them on a WEP/WPA-protected wifi network?

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 14:06:55 +0000
Before reinstalling XP I was getting around 5MB/s. After my recent
reinstallation of XP Home I'm getting less than half of that.
The main PC is connected to a Netgear DG632 router on the USB.
A secondary computer is connected via the ethernet. This one
maintains the 5MB rate, which leads me to suspect the USB on ...
