New Computer wont recognize XP disc
Hello everyone,
I recently built a new computer and everything works great. I set up BIOS and start loading XP on my computer. The install stopped me and asked me to put in a full version of windows even though the disc I put in there is the full version. I bought the disc through my college and it has an activation key and everything. Is anyone familiar with what to do?
Thanks,
Matt

Hey all,
Does anyone know of a program that will create an Operating System/application re-installation disk/partition? For example, an image from the factory install.

Print spooler problem
Marcia's computer has become unable to print to any printer. If I try, say, to print a test page on her HP 1020, I get the error message shown below. I've copied over the spoolsv.exe file from her latest service pack's i386 folder, but the situation is unchanged.
Any hints?
Divx for vob to mkv
I've used nero 7 for years, but it wont work on my new Windows 7 computer. I don't want to buy nero 9. I'm looking for the best freeware solution to convert individual songs from unprotected concert DVD's to a smaller file to play on a HTPC. I have tried Handbrake allready. I'm looking for advice on the best converter and file format before I convert my concert collection. I'm also considering Divx 7.

$4.8 trillion - Interest on U.S. debt
Unless lawmakers make big changes, the interest Americans will have to pay to keep the country running over the next decade will reach unheard of levels.
By Jeanne Sahadi, CNNMoney.com senior writer

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Here's a new way to think about the U.S. government's epic borrowing: More than half of the $9 trillion in debt that Uncle Sam is expected to build up over the next decade will be interest.
More than half. In fact, $4.8 trillion.
If that's hard to grasp, here's another way to look at why that's a problem.
In 2015 alone, the estimated interest due - $533 billion - is equal to a third of the federal income taxes expected to be paid that year, said Charles Konigsberg, chief budget counsel of the Concord Coalition, a deficit watchdog group.

XP Pro freezes on HP Media Center pc
I have an HP Media Center PC running XP Pro SP3. A few months ago it began freezing up requiring that I pull the power plug to get back into Windows. Then it would just freeze again, usually within a few minutes. It runs fine in Safe Mode. I ran anti-virus and anti-spyware programs, uninstalled or disabled all unnecessary programs and services. I tried all the recommended recovery techniques including System Restore and both versions of the built-in HP Recovery (light and re-format). Nothing seems to work. Hardware must be fine or safe mode would not work right? Any suggestions welcome.
The AP: Going Rogue
Number of AP reporters assigned to story:
? ObamaCare bills: 2
? Palin book: 11
Number of pages in document being covered:
? ObamaCare bills: 4,064
? Palin book: 432
Number of pages per AP reporter:
? ObamaCare bill: 2,032
? Palin book: 39.3
No wonder we spend more time debating Sarah Palin than the largest government expansion in history.
Tip o' the hat to James Taranto.
Reid's "health" plan includes an abortion premium
Nancy Pelosi couldn't get away with it, but Harry Reid is trying to sneak a premium into one of the government health insurance policies to cover abortions.
Quote:
Section 1303(a)(2)(C) describes the process in which the Health Benefits Commissioner is to assess the monthly premiums that will be used to pay for elective abortions under the government-run health plan and for those who are given an affordability credit to purchase insurance coverage that includes abortion through the Exchange. The Commissioner must charge at a minimum $1 per enrollee per month.

HIS HD5770 graphic card question
I am planning to buy the HIS Radeon HD 5770 for my computer. I am just wondering if my PC would be compatible with it. I an just mainly concerned with my motherboard compatibility (which is a MSI 945GCM5-F V2) and whether the power supply I am planning to buy would be enough to power it (a SuperFlower Gaming 650W)? Is there anything else I should be worried about?
