Multi-monitor modes Windows supports a single multi-monitor mode, usually referred to as standard or extended desktop mode, also DualView or independent displays mode. In this mode, all monitors connected to the installed video cards form a single desktop, you can move the mouse and applications to any monitor. Each monitor can use different settings (resolution, color depth and refresh rate). Most multi-monitor video cards (video cards which can drive 2 or more monitors) support additional, video card-specific modes. Very common is clone mode: in this mode, the same image is shown on 2 or more monitors. Clone mode is usually limited to the monitors connected to a single video card, for example you couldn't clone monitor 1 (on video card 1) on monitor 3 (on video card 2) if you have two dualhead cards installed. Span mode (also called stretched mode): in this mode, all the monitors connected to a single video card form a single large monitor. Windows thinks that you are using a single... See less

One day my computer won't boot and my technician suggests reformatting the disk. He installs Window XP (which I had been running when the problem occurred) and updates MS Office from 2000 to XP. Everything is fine for a about a week and then Outlook keeps freezing up on me. I went back to the technician who hands me Outlook 2003 and suggests that I try using the newer version. This also seemed to solve the problem for about a day or two and then the same problem returned. I've been using Outlook to organize my whole life - contacts, appointments, e-mail, etc. and really want to get this fixed. Any ideas??? See less

Antivirus programs are designed to detect and intercept harmful files downloaded to your computer. In order to monitor incoming files, however, antivirus programs--like all applications--need to use system resources. The degree to which an antivirus program detrimentally affects a system's performance varies from one application to another. CNET Labs tests three areas of antivirus application performance: how deep-file virus scanning impacts overall system performance, how quickly files can be scanned for viruses, and how system boot time is affected by the antivirus program. We also report on how effective the antivirus programs are at identifying viruses by citing the studies of established industry authorities. Antivirus software is tested on a desktop system with a 3.4GHz Pentium 4 550 processor, 1GB of DDR2 SDRAM running at 533MHz, an Nvidia GeForce 6600 PCI-Express graphics card with 256MB of memory, a 74GB Western Digital WD740 Raptor hard drive, and Windows XP Professional SP2...

The old adage that time is money might seem jaded, but it's also true for most businesses. In some situations, time in your day is directly related to a specific project or client. An attorney who spends 20 minutes working on a brief, for example, would bill the time to the client. A project manager who spends an hour working on a project status report might need to allocate that time to the project's administrative overhead cost. In other situations, time spent on a particular document, phone call, or meeting isn't a directly billable item, but it's important even so. For example, a salesperson might need to keep track of time spent talking to a prospective client so that it can be determined whether the sale might prove to be worthwhile. Or you might just be curious as to where all that time goes. Whatever the situation, Journal is a helpful tool for tracking the time you spend on specific items. And it can help you get a handle on each project in other ways, such as tracking e-mail... See less

One of the least-known but most useful features in Office 95, 97, and 2000 is Microsoft Office Binder, a utility that lets you tie Word documents, Excel worksheets, Microsoft Project files, and PowerPoint presentations together in one file without having to load separate programs. Each piece becomes a section of the binder file. You can keep related documents, worksheets, and presentations together, jumping back and forth from one kind of data to another as easily as you jump from one worksheet to another in an Excel workbook. You can also export the sections to individual files as needed (using the Section | Save As File command) or add already existing files to the binder file (using the Section | Add From File command).
