			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by celestino jr m</i>: My Cable TV does not have Audio output, how can I get connected to Home speaker to listen to quality sound?</strong><br />
My  TV in my room does not have audio output where I suppose to connect it to my home theater system to enjoy quality sound coming from Dish TV programs, niether it has a Dish satellite box receiver. How can I possibly make connection to my home theater?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by aplusjimages</i><br/>You&#8217;ll need to buy a TV that has them built in. As far as I know, I&#8217;ve never heard of a way to add an audio out without taking your TV apart and moding it.</p>
<p><strong>What do you think? Answer below!</strong></p>

<p>Help!!!</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Jim H</i><br/>You need to have a computer to run the web server.  The content can be on the portable drive, but it isn&#8217;t capable of running the server program.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by madmonkett</i>: How do I get a picture back on a memory card?</strong><br />
I have a FujiFilm XD 512 MB memory card for my digital camera. A recently saved all of my pictures onto a cd and deleted all of my pictures that were on my memory card, because the memory card was full. However, I want to get a picture developed but the pictures I want are saved on my comp and not on my memory card. So is there a way to get the pictures back on my memory card so I can take them somewhere to be developed?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by SaturnKiller</i><br/>stik the memory card into the comp.wait till it is done installing the device. then go to ur picture folder. select all of them and then rite clik on them and select copy. then go 2 ur memory card folder and rite clik in it and select paste. the pics should transfer to the memory card folder.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by l0ck3d 1n</i>: How much would it cost to activate a phone through Verizon?</strong><br />
I want to get a blackberry curve in orange because I don&#8217;t like my phone that I have right now. I would buy the phone off ebay, cause they aren&#8217;t that expensive.</p>
<p>I was wondering what Verizon would charge to get the phone activated and put onto my line?<br />
And does having a Blackberry make your phone bill more expensive?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Jeremy M</i><br/>The phone would cost the same to activate new or used.<br />
Just with a used phone you do not have to agree to a 1 or 2 year contract,</p>
<p>YES a black berry is a more expensive phone plan.<br />
All smart phones need a data plan as well as a voice plan.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by harryr57</i>: How difficult is it to connect a digital video recorder to my TV?</strong><br />
I am considering purchasing a Phillips digital video recorder<br />
(records to a hard drive).  I have a TV with very simple plug-ins.<br />
I have two coaxial connections and an audio and video input<br />
in the front and rear of the TV.   I am a little concerned that I<br />
may need to upgrade my TV if I purchase a Phillips DVR.</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by TV guy</i><br/>What you have should be good enough.</p>
<p>Connect your TV source (antenna, set-top box, etc.) to the Philips DVR<br />
Connect the DVR to the TV either via Coax or the composite video.<br />
If you don&#8217;t use a set-top box, make sure the DVR has a tuner.</p>
<p><strong>What do you think? Answer below!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><i>Question by </i>: How to install windows XP on a netbook with SATA?</strong><br />
Hi I have a Samsung Netbook with Windows 7 Starter but I can&#8217;t install Windows XP because I can&#8217;t switch off SATA without screwing up my installation of Windows 7 as I am planning to dual boot. I just want Windows XP because I want performance to be a bit better.</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Colinc</i><br/>XP will be likely to be worse on performance. 7 handles memory and cpu better. You can NOT &#8220;turn off&#8221; SATA. SATA is the type of hard drive the machine uses, without SATA the machine can not run. Your biggest problem is that there will be no easily available late SATA drivers for XP.</p>

Beyond the fact that if you external hard drive was the size of a house it wouldn&#8217;t be portable? Are there any other differences? Also after I back up my data can I just leave them unplugged and powered down? Or is there some reason they would constantly need power?</p>
<p><strong>Best answer:</strong></p>
<p><i>Answer by Christopher J</i><br/>They do the same thing, essentially. Most &#8220;portable&#8221; hard drives use a 2.5&#8243; hard drive, the same sized drive that comes in a laptop for example. External hard drives usually use 3.5&#8243; drives, hence the difference in size. </p>
<p>You can also build your own external drive by purchasing a drive and then a cage for the drive. If you were to do this eSATA is your best bet, provided your computer has an eSATA port of course.</p>
