Google may be helpful but it won't solve all the problems, otherwise there won't be any need for forums like this. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer Aspire 5750 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit CPU Intel Core i3-2310M Motherboard Acer OEM Memory 8GB Graphics Card Intel HD3000 Screen Resolution 1366x768 Hard Drives 320GB Toshiba |

Although I agree with the basic observation, I myself do not mind to answer "simple" questions. As was said, there are many circumstances where people do not react the way like we would react. And Googling is an art in itself. If you want a meaningful result, you need some practice too. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 What's up with the Newbies these days problems?
