Traore wants to "increase my video memory size by allocating more system RAM to video memory." Since it's a notebook with Intel integrated graphics, we'd start with the Intel Driver Update. Watch the video to find out what we'd do next!
Jared wants to use a static IP address at home, needs to change his wireless settings back to automatic when he connects to other WiFi routers. It's a hassle, so he asks, "Is there a program that will allow me to leave my laptop to "obtain an IP address automatically" but will keep a specific IP address when I'm on my home network?" Find out the -FREE- program we use in the video!
@Dijitek tweets, "@patricknorton figured you might be the guy to ask. Know any 12v car vacuums worth a damn? Most are underwhelming." True... but folks do seem to love Black & Decker's PAV1200W Cyclonic Action Pivoting Nose 12V Vacuum!
Buying a new PC? Been waiting for Ivy Bridge ? Good news... Intel's latest 22nm part went on sale April 29th. It uses less power... but is Intel's new CPU a must have upgrade? Ryan Shrout from PCPer.com has the answer!
Jim writes in, "You can go into a store and buy a name brand bleach, and then you can buy a generic bleach. bleach is bleach isn't it? Does this hold true for Intel and AMD?" Well, they both run Windows... but the difference is in -how- they run Windows apps, especially for performance users!
This week's "Website We Just Can't Get Enough of!" is PlayEm.org which scours your Facebook news feed for videos and media from your friends, so you can watch it in one place... it's perfect if you want the cool videos from your Facebook friends without having to go to Facebook!
When you think of Web Browsers you think Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari. But you're looking to give a new browser a try, check out Maxthon. Not only is it free, it also claims to be faster than the other browsers out there because of its unique GPU rendering... find out how fast it really is, its super cool mouse gestures, reader mode, night mode, and much more, including if Veronica's ready to dump Chrome for Maxthon- in the video!
John wrote in, "I'm sure you've gone over this a million times before, but can you send me a link that explains whatever alternative you recommend that's more secure than WEP? I need something simple and basic if it is to stand a chance at getting through my thick skull. I have Wi-Fi at home, which connects my TiVo, Roku, iPad, Wii, Blu Ray player and Wi-Fi printer." We've got the simple version of WPA in the video!
Laurentiu wanted us to know that "the people that bought Google Storage are essentially grandfathered in on their old plans. I have a Google account for which i payed 5$/year for 20 GB combined storage for Gmail, Picasa and Google Docs. They "upgraded" me to the 25GB plan but instead of paying 2.49/mo, i pay the old 5$/year." Forty-two cents a month is a great deal for 30GB of online storage!
Finally Ricardo wanted to add Microsoft Virtual Academy to our certification conversation, where students "can progress at their own pace in almost all Microsoft products, including certifications and global recognition of their studies. And best of all it's FREE!!" Thanks Ricardo!!! (You'll have to watch the video to find out if you won our Hackintosh Giveaway!)
