How to fix my computers hardware to accept my external Hard Drive?
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007I own a Maxtor 160gb hard drive that i was planning to use to put .mp4 videos on so i can view them on my ps3. I found out online for the ps3 to recognize the hard drive it is required to FAT32. I followed eHow’s directions but quit half way. Now when i connect the hard drive to the computer it does not recognize the hard drive. How do i fix this problem?
You can actually connect an external hard drive but like i said it has to be in a special format. I failed to mention what i did to ***** this all up.
If you go to: http://www.wikihow.com/Add-an-External-Hard-Drive-to-a-PlayStation-3
I made it up to step 2c then closed it. I really would just like to fix my computer so that it recognizes the hard drive (not really focusing on trying to make my ps3 recognizing it).

Computer Hardware help?
Thursday, March 1st, 2007Hey, i just have a few questions about computer hardware, any help would be greatly appreciated.
1)All notebooks come with DVD burners. The NEC says 4X whilst the ACER 4233 says 2X. What does this mean?
2)Both say that the DVD drive supports DVD RAM. What does this mean?
3)There appears to be two main differences with the DELL notebooks when compared to Portacom’s NEC.
Firstly, Dell’s Inspiron 640M specifies an Intel Centrino Duo Processor Technology featuring Intel Core Duo Processor T2350. Is this basically the same as the Acer ‘s Intel Core Duo or a different device altogether?
4)Secondly, the Dell specifications says “1 Gb Dual Channel Memory shared with Graphics whereas the NEC Versa (albeit $100 over our budget) has ATI graphics. What does it mean to have memory shared with graphics?
answers to all or any of the following questions would be a big help thanks.
