if your software did not install properly you should probably go to control panel add remove programs and select to remove it there. Then you can either try to re-install it or just forget about it. My personal preference is to forget about it and go with a card reader. First are you sure your computer does not have a card reader built in to it? Most of the newer ones do. You take the little memory card out of the camera and insert it into the proper slot in the card reader. If you get a usb card reader it simply plugs into a usb port on your pc or a usb hub you have connected to your pc, then once it is ready you just insert the memory card from your camera into the reader. You can then copy the pics directly to the pc or do what ever you want to do with them. Always remember when using any device that plugs into a usb port to use the safely remove icon down in the systray before unplugging from the usb port.

john4291 If your wanting to use one monitor - one keyboard - one mouse and 2 computers than you can do what I did. I use a kvm switch. It's simple to hook up. On 2 occasions I've had the mouse and keyboard not recognized.It was easy to fix. I just had to turn of the pc and unplug the power for about 2 minutes. With power back on everything was working. Mine has 2 ports (2 computers) costs around $30.00 My kvm switch connects Windows XP and Windows 7

Two steps backwards, one step forward. While dealing with the impending death of my own pc's hard drive, I had plenty of time to work on her computer. I opened the case. Cleaned out the dust bunnies much more thoroughly than I had in October. I found the fan - and actually took it out and cleaned it thoroughly (mostly compressed air, and a little damp cloth). I did remove the label and add a drop of WD 40. (While I was at it, I searched for replacement fans in case this didn't work - and bookmarked some - it would be so simple to replace if needed.) Put the pieces back together and started it up. Still noisy. I started organizing her files, deleting duplicates and ridiculous things she didn't even know she had on there. I put everything in logical folders - then copied her 16GB of video (Ipod videos and flip share) onto a 32mb flash drive. Deleted 8gb of that video bc. it's also on her ipod. Then I ran auslogics defrag. Defrag was 100% successful - and she now has about 15GB free on a 40GB drive. Now the noise is less. I hear the fan a little - but you have to stop to listen. Not sure if it just took running a little for the oil to do it's thing. From what folks said earlier, it's unlikely that freeing up space and defragging reduced the noise. So far, so good. (I even think I could have turned it on with the case open - but i didn't have to.) Thanks. Lynn.

Below is my dual monitor set-up at work. My two monitors are different sizes and brands but that doesn't make any difference to how I use them. The monitor on the left is my main workspace monitor, while the one on the right is primarily used to place menus, iChat windows, post-it notes, etc. You can see a slight color difference which could be improved if I wanted to spend the time and energy to fix it with color profiles. On this second close-up photo you can see how the spread works a little better. The headline for this posts reads: Do you use two monitors (at on the left monitor and the same time)? on the right. Nothing gets lost in the translation between both monitors. Jodi-
