SOURCE: my dell pentium 2 with windows XP professional keeps restarting

There are two options of solving the problem according to my own diagonosis.
1. Remove the memory chip and replace it with a another one.
2. If it doesn't work then it should be a power supply problem and if its a l;aptop then its Battery failure.

SOURCE: how to convert Pooh Days of Hunny Activity Center Exersaucer

Ok take the legs off of the top part (white) just twist and the top part comes off; then twist the springs off. Now take the legs that you took off and slide them through the first hole of the bottom from the bottom not the top; do all three legs and you have a table.

You can pop off the toys the tigger and flower one you have to push the thing till you have a big enough for it to slide through.

The disney pooh car pops right off of the top part; then you just unscrew the car from it's bottom (2 screws) take it off the track and volia you have a car.

I bought mine from someone but with a little bit of imagination I figured it on my own. lol.

How can I download SoundmAX audio on my new Dell Windows XP Professional desktop?

Dell has a great support site- if you can find the Service Tag on your computer (usually a string of 7 letters and numbers) and type it in, it will take you to the correct drivers. The SoundMAX driver is usually installed from a package named "Analog Devices ADI Integrated Audio".
If you can't find the tag (mine was behind a door on the front!), you can click "Choose from all products", then Desktops, the model name (e.g., OptiPlex), and then the model number.

My dell d620 web cam not open

Click start control panel view devices and printers you should see your webcam from there
if you are have trouble with your webcam

Click start control panel administrative tools computer management device manager scroll down image devices you could see a yellow question mark?
right click to reinstall drivers or update driver xp

Click start right click on computer select properties device manager scroll to image devices expand right click to update driver in W7

http://download.cnet.com/2000-20_4.html
on the home page you should see a search tab just type in what you are looking for
IE: webcam name webcam driver you might have to try a few times to get it right

software if you dont have the driver you will need to download one here rather doing a driver hunt which can take hours

Windows XP/Vista/7/8


It might take some time being a freeware driver solution

note: it will find all of your outdated drivers

this is a free driver solutions

This will automatically search for and find the correct driver
you will have to update every driver individually once you update you might be asked whether you

want to restart or make a system restore point click no to both of these then continue updating each driver free then restart once all of the drivers have been updated

Some webcams and programs require additional software, although that should be installed with the webcam if things are right.

But is does not harm to check if your Java, Flash and Quicktime software are installed and up to date.
But certainly check your DirectX software, since all video applications, including webcams, use DirectX for video processing.

Try downloading the latest DirectX version and install it (Windows XP: DirectX 9.0c - Windows Vista: DirectX 10).

I don have aduio in my dell computer directsound output v2.46. were can i download a driver to fix my problem

It is my understanding that DirectSound drivers are part of DirectX drivers available from Microsoft.

You may have to update DirectX drivers to fix this

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/179113

shows how to download and install.
Cannot provide any more suggestions as you have not provided the details of your Dell computer, ie, model no etc to know what audio / sound card it has.

You can also go to the Dell support site for download of specific drivers after you select the model of your computer
