Sorry, I am not good with computers. I can’t find beginner guides anywhere either and it didn’t come with instructions, so I would really appreciate help from anyone. Thanks in advance!!

I just got a Dell Latitude D630 laptop. Do I have to plug it in to use it? How can I check how full the battery is so I know when to charge it?

Do I have to back it up BEFORE doing anything to it? If so, will CD-R’s do?

How do I get internet? It has a wireless card but do I need to plug something in or call my internet provider to order a modem/plug/wire?

I have a connection that I need to keep on constantly and I was wondering how I could ensure my hub stays on in the event of a power failure.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance

Have a new desktop computer in the way and wondering what most people use for surge protection and if they use backup battery protection or if this is over-kill.

Thanks in advance!

I have a Dell Axim X5 Pocket PC. I keep getting a message that says “Backup Battery Very Low — To prevent possible data loss, replace or recharge your battery according to the owner’s manual.” When I check my Power it says that my Backup battery is at 0%. I’m not certain how that happened. But, I would like to charge it if possible. I checked my Dell Axim X5 User’s Guide and other papers I got with it and it only tells me how to charge the Main Battery and not the backup battery. Is it possible to charge it or do I have to buy another? The words on the backup battery read as: maxell CR2032 3V Hitachi Maxell, Ltd. Japan. I’ve tried just plugging in the PC like I would to charge the main battery but, the backup battery won’t charge at all like that. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
