I like the "StopWatch & Timer" made by sportstracklive.com You can get it from Google Play. Just as you need, it can run in the background, but when it is, it displays a small counter in the Android notification area. If you also have a Task Manager running, then you …

Looking at your pictures there, it looks to me that you already have power feeding the converter board with a four pin floppy drive power connector. Please be careful in how you set this up, we don't want you to fry your HDD.. I've found this [PATA To SATA converter](http://sgcdn.startech.com/005329/media/sets/PATA2SATA3_Manual/PATA2SATA3.pdf) …

Is it for your homework, or similar course work? It really isn't that difficult, my friend. It's quite elementary stuff, and researching this will give you a more rounded out understanding of the subject. Honestly, on this occasion, and others may think differently, if you come back to us with …

This is not good, there is nothing that can be done to retrieve your data by any standard method. If it was a problem with the memory component, there would be hope. But, the fault you are describing here is with the controller. Even with the specialist gear I use, …

I don't think the Surge Protector has done its job. Sorry to hear about your situation, because as far as you are concerned you did all you could to protect your system. Considering the symptoms you describe, it appears that your motherboard has been fried. But with that much current …

The power connector that plugs into the laptop, does it feel loose when plugged in? Sometimes, because the laptop hinge is very close to the power connector, when you open the laptop it can appear to be a fault related to the opening of the laptop, but often that isn't …

If you just want to wipe it and Windows isn't letting you then an Ubuntu live disc (meaning that you don't need to install it, just boot from it) should do the job. :)

Set up your deploy for 1080 and then use the screen format button on your TV remote control - the button that changes the TV picture between Widescreen, 4:3 , Zoom, etc. When it reaches Widescreen everything should fit and look as it is supposed to.

There was a TV series in the 80's which was inspired by 'War Games' called Whiz Kids. That series made me so envious of Americans, they had all the computer gear we in the UK could only dream about. As someone said earlier in the thread, they do silly things …
