Quad core (AMD or Intel, it doesn't matter), 16gb RAM. Everything else you might need is built onto most motherboards so there's no need for add-on cards unless you're going to to be gaming.I also recommend building it yourself.

Even though the question is absolutely not clear, I don't think is makes any sense. COM port and the USB are very different things with very different functionality. Unlike COM, USB is not a port but a bus, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB[^].—SA

Short answer: about average.Longer answer: It depends how big it is and how far away you sit. I have a monitor of about that resolution (1680 x 1050, 560mm diagonal) at arm's length and I can (on a good day) almost make out pixels.I also have a laptop screen of the same pixels, 390mm...

Open the event viewer of the PC and check for the errors.There should be some diagnostics information.Maybe your setup.exe is missing some dependencies (e.g. some runtime, etc.).CheersAndi

What stops me using cmd or a third party file explorer to access the folder and do what I want? Trying to prevent access to things by manipulating the GUI is never the right solution and it always leaves workarounds. If you want to restrict access to a folder do it properly using authentication.

You should contact a company that specializes in data recovery from hard drives.
2 Nov 2015 by OriginalGriff
If you have repartitioned your hard disk and used it for over a year and you want to get the pre-partition info back, you are probably out of luck.It may be possible to recover it - HDD's are magnetic media and that means that specialist companies can recover a number of datasets, even if...

If you deleted data then please look at following linkhttp://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/995/how-do-i-get-back-some-deleted-records[^]Also you can use data recovery tools .And if you want to restore previous data then you must stop current data entering action.

So turn it on, run it for an hour or so flat on a table and then feel the table and the bottom of the lappie. The bit that needs the cooler is the bit that feels hottest...Or contact HP and ask them: this isn't really a suitable question for a development site.
