ATI radeon 5450 in a HP Pavillion a1428x?

The video card : 400 Watt or greater power supply recommended. 480W may not be enough for the other components, you should have a 550W PSU, minimum.

Why are ECP's still recommending Polycarbonate?

Trivex is a great material but more costly than Poly. Many progressive lens designs are not available in Trivex. Some labs don't have a lot of experience with Trivex and have trouble finishing the edges in a way that looks good. The poly that is available now is not the same poly that was available 40 years ago so calling it 40 year old technology is not exactly fair.

Can a weak or faulty power supply unit cause graphics card to overheat?

Your PSU won't cause the GPU to overheat directly, but could be the reason indirectly. 105 is really hot for a GPU (graphics processing unit) but the greatest reason is lack of airflow in the case. There should be at least two fans in your case, one to draw the air in, usually from the front, and one in the rear to push it back out. Many systems have 4, 5, 6 just to make sure there is good air movement. Also the GPU heatsink could be jammed with dust and other debris causing this problem. But the biggest reason is likely that you are overdrawing your PSU causing it to generate tons of heat. A basic system with a 4650 runs about 150w, a weak PSU that runs at 70% inefficiency (which is not unrealistic for a generic PSU) maxes out at around 190w, making it work hard to power your system. I suggest get some canned compressed air, blow out the GPU heatsink at the least but also change your PSU for something beefier.

My 2 and 3yr old daughters found nailpolish and colored each other. What will take it off without harming them?

I didn't leave it just lying around. They climbed a bookshelf to get to it. I was feeding my infant son when I realized they were very quiet. The nail polish is all over the carpet, the bed and their skin. I tried acetone free remover on the skin and they freaked out. I'm not so worried about the floor and bed as much. But if you know how to get it off those that would be helpful too.

Poll: define love as briefly as you can?

I don't care about your definition, love stinks nowadays. But I would like to know if you ever swim in a lake, where is it and what is the temperature now or also at other times?

Acetone that haven't use for a long time?

Why did my husband get so angry?

eh he's just being a guy i wouldn't worry about it too much. I'd just let him cool off and just be like " i'm sorry it's just that the noise was really bugging me i didn't mean to make you upset." He should understand i wouldn't take it to heart though guys will be guys :)

California best towns?

So Im determined to go to college in California because that state is AMAZING!!! My first question is what are some good colleges out there and Im smart and I volunteer and stuff so I don't want a school that's easy to get into. My next question is where are nice towns in California? I want a town that is an hour or less away from the beach and I want it to be well put together, warm, low crime rates, low pollution and overall a great place to raise a family when im ready. I know that where ever you go in Cali there are earthquakes but is there a town that has all these qualities but doesn't get that effected by earthquakes and also wildfires? Those things scare me but they are part of life I know :(

How to treat an abcess. Never dealt with one?

Get your vet to remove it. They can become serious over time if not attended to. Your vet will give you bute to give your horse to help with the pain. You have to soak the foot in epsom salt and water everyday or every other day and then wrap the hoof in gauze and duck tape. You are absolutely right about treatment but I would have the vet com out and pop it ASAP since it can be very painful for the horse. Good luck!

If I order P90X from beachbody.com will I start getting a bunch of junk mail?

I'm thinking about getting the P90X dvd set but not sure where I should buy it from, either beachbody.com itself or from their Amazon front. There are some reviews on Amazon that claim faulty DVDs and no warranty to have them replaced. I think I read somewhere that beachbody.com does offer a warranty to replace faulty products but if I order it from them will I start getting a bunch of junk mail for supplements and other crap? Back when I was a kid I ordered something from the back of a Boy Scout mag and next thing I know I'm getting a couple novelty catalogs every week. So, I suppose I'll be ordering directly from the company to get the benefits of the warranty, but I'd still like to know what I'm getting my self into. Also, I know this question isn't about diet or fitness but it requires the personal experience of someone who has ordered it so it seemed appropriate......... I think.

What would be the best way to change the color of a Frisbee golf disc?

10 POINTS! I cant thin out my nailpolish!!!?

It was really old and thick so i googled how to thin it out, it said put a few drops of acetone in it, which i did, and that worked for a while, but i kept putting more in it cause it kept getting thick again, now, its all just clumps inside the bottle and the acetone doesnt miz with it, its like oil and water! just clumps with water around it, and ive also tried rubbing alcohol, i really want my nailpolish to be thinner, i dont know where to buy this color, i cant find it in walmart or stores like that, so dont tell me to go buy a new one, i need advice!

Cold sore question... again!?

Hi, i had a cold sore for 6 days now, on my previous question i stated that i never had one before this is my first cold sore, i had no idea why but now i realize why i got it.. I HAVE A COLD!.. anyways, i did everything i see on the internet to do, acetone, salt, idk what else but i tried it . the cold sore is going away thankfully, but mid way of the first cold sore, i seemed to start getting another one on my top lip, i have been very careful with the first one, super clean with it. i used abreva right away but ran out, the new sores have not erupted or anything, they are just a couple of small bumps here and there. would they erupt? i am using l lysine and carmex, thats it.

Is this benefit boi-ing concealer fake?

I bought and received one this week too from ebay. I think it is a fake as it came with a bonus benefit concealer brush which is a completely different colour to the one on their website. I can't prove anything either but the quality of the concealer isn't as good as I thought it would be. The price I paid wasn't cheap but it wasn't expensive either. As for the details on the back of mine it is the same as the post before mine. Mine doesn't have a four digit number on the back but the sticker on the back is very off centre (another reason I think it's a fake). There are some youtube videos you can check but they don't really clarify anything for us!

What happens when you mix acetone and bleach?

I've read that mixing acetone and bleach results in chloroform. However, I have also read that it makes for a great cleaning solution. I have a container of Clorox bleach and a container of acetone-based nail polish, both at room temperature. Will mixing them be at all dangerous?

I gave mt rabbit a bath with human shampoo?

I have a rabbit and my rabbit was in her cage and she had to pee so she did and it was right after I cleaned her cage so she had no bedding down and she was goin to get some water from her bottle and she walked all through it and then had it ALL over her. I put my rabbit in the sink and used lukewarm water and alittle bit of suave all natural shampoo just alittle in my hands lathered up and then rinsed her REALLY well, and towled dried her and then blowdried her so she wouldnt get cold. She has a upper respitory infection and shes just about done with her medicine so she is sneezing but she is sneezing ALOT after her bath.

One positive pregnancy test, one negative?

What are the best cheaper EARBUDS that will last me at least a month without being faulty?

The Sony MDR-D100 Stereo Headphones are terrific. I'm a retired part-time announcer for a midwest talk radio station so it goes without saying that after a four hour shift on the air a headset that not only sounds great but is light weight and easy on the ears is a necessity. Sony's MDR-XD-100 Stereo Headphones fill the bill. And you can't beat the price.

Does a rusty evaporator coil in a home a/c constitute a leaky/faulty coil?

i dont work on them but i take apart old ones to say more then likely that is it. if you open it be carefull the freeon is nasty i wont even mess with them untill an expert reclaims the stuff. if u look around the unit if there is any abnormal white staining thats ur leak freeon leaves a residue or stain that would not be there unless u have a leak. you should also check pipe fittings and coroded copper when it gets old aand has cold freeon it can weaken the pipe and may leak. if all else fails you can get a new ac and scrap the old one for 80 bucks good luck

Drop some hints. It seems like its kinda obvious for both of you that you guys have a thing for eachother. Chances are he likes you too and he just doesnt know how to break the ice.

You 2 seem to connect, so just let it out..

Why did my cat bring me a dead mouse?

Used a condom left in car but didn't break. Still reason to worry?

I bought a pack of condoms about a month ago. When i first bought them I had left them in the bag in the backseat of my car that day. The car was in the sun. I just used two of them this past week. Neither broke and I even tested to see if one from the pack to see if they were faulty by filling it with water and nothing leaked. Both times, the condom appeared to be fine after pulling out. Still, I have read that the latex can deteriorate and expand, leading to small holes. Is there cause for concern because it hasn't been 72 hours and I would like to buy Plan B if you guys think it's necessary.

Caring for a wild baby rabbit?

I recently discovered two baby rabbits my dog had found, the dog killed one and had the other in its mouth. I was able to rescue it and brought it inside. Its eyes are open but it doesn't seem to be able to walk. I don't think the dog paralyzed it because if you pick it up it strains to get away. I hope to get it to a wildlife group in the next few days. At the moment I have it in a basket on a towel. Is there anything I should do until the group can take it? It seems fat enough and stays warm on its own.

I bought a pair of headphones from an amazon trader about a month ago that have now developed a fault - the trader has said I should return the item to them for testing - if they agree they are faulty they will replace them but if they don't they will charge me a restocking fee. The item is definitely faulty but what is to stop the trader simply denying there is a fault and charging me to replace them?

If global warming is real, why aren't countries doing anything about it?

So, you're arguing that idea that Earth's climate is increasing is false because countries are failing to either prevent it or ensure their ways-of-life. Well, I think that argument is bogus. People willing disregard all warning signs, even with things far more certain than global warming. Everything from speeding, smoking, drugs, you name it. The average person willingly ignores all signs and wisdom. Now, before you say, "But these are countries, not the average person." Let me point out that countries do the same, and there is a long history of that too. The economic collapse in 2007 or the 9/11 attacks had major warning signs that were ignored, but those events happened --- despite the obvious consequences to the US government.

AGi in cloud seeding emits pollution, how? I'm talking about the ground based liquid propane burning generator?

I want other people's opinions please...?

Well I was considering moving to arizona to live with my grandmother for quite a few reasons, it's warmer there, and there wouldn't be snow, and because I loved spending time with grandma as a kid. My grandparents moved from illinois to arizona when I was like 7 or 8 years old. My grandpa recently passed away in April, and grandma has other family in arizona to rely on, (my uncle, and his kids) and a few other family members but I mentioned moving in with grandma, because it's the only way I could afford to move out west to Arizona. My grandma sent me an email with a few things to consider such as if I was okay with staying in her guest room/sewing room & I told her I was, I thought it was a done deal I was moving out their, until I realized my grandma wants to talk with my dad about it, and my dad says she has strong reservations about it, not that she wouldn't be excited to have me their but grandma pretty much suggested going out and staying with her for a month on a vacation while we talked about all this. I thought it was a done deal, that I was moving out their (im unemployed in illinois) so I would have to look for a job and such out in Arizona. I'm really just wondering what strong reservations really means. I mean, I flat out told her that I didn't want to be a burden, is this her way of being polite and saying it may be a burden? She keeps telling me to consider other things like car insurance for a vehicle and legalizing it, considering I would have to sell my car and then buy another one out there, im just worried she will find reasons not to consider it. I pretty much feel like if I don't move out their now I probably won't because once I find a job here, im stuck here. Ya know? Is she politely trying to tell me she would rather not? Or do you think she's still considering it there's just alot we have to talk about?

Grounding prong broke off Scentsy Plug-In warmer... can i still use it?

I have a scentsy warmer that I use for melting wax in my bathroom. I had it plugged in my living room a while back and my daughter pulled it at a weird angle and snapped the grounding prong off in the socket. I'm not concerned about the socket, just if I can use the warmer still or not. It still has about 2/3 of the prong, but has a small piece of metal showing in the middle of it. Is it safe to use until I can afford a new one? They run about $15 +shipping, so I don't want to spend the money if I don't need to. Thanks for any help!

Unique burn? MDs prefered?

I have a unique situation, I was boiling acetone for a chemistry lab when it caught on fire, I tried to blow it out but it splashed on my face instead, within seconds I had a damp towel on my face and had taken a vicodin anticipating pain. Well when I tried to determine what type of burn it was there were no similar images online, about a minute after I burned myself I looked at it in the mirror and my top layer of skin was all white, I peeled it off, it was really weird, the next day at school everyone told me it looked like I got mad sun, so weird, I have a realy high pain tolerance and it hurts pretty badly, what would you guys determine the severity of the burn to be? How can I make this heal fast? Yes I know of aloe vera, neosporin, vitamin E, and hydrocortosine cream. I need PRACTICAL off the wall ways to get burns to heal really fast. Is it possible that I just seared my top layer of skin? Yes I know, I need to see a doctor, I already have.

Allen Head bolt Anti-theft?

I am currently building up a bike with (in my opinion) expensive quill stem and handlebars. I sometimes need to park it outside. I am currently experimenting with different adhesives in the head of the allen bolts to deter theft. I've heard people using epoxy with a ball bearing, but acetone to remove the epoxy makes me nervous with painted surfaces around. Bathroom Caulk seems to be rather easy to remove. I'm aware of expensive anti-theft bolts, but I was looking for an easy/cheap fix. Any Suggestions/ Ideas?

Do you think there is something about being ultraconservative that motivates people to deny anthropogenic climate change?

Iphone 4 exchange at apple tomorrow.. help!!?

IF . . . . IF they exchange it then it will be the same as the one you took in and a reconditioned one NOT a brand new one. BUT most likely unless they say they are exchanging it they will repair the current one for you as they are under no obligation to exchange it without trying to repair it first.

No, that could actually make it worse after it melts and evaporates since water vapor is a greenhouse gas.

If gravity is strongest at the poles, then why do accretion discs form at equators?

The reason Jupiter is a ball is because it is a gas giant. The gas will always form a ball shape because it is confined due to gravitational pull of the actual dense mass and the perfect shape to avoid contact with other objects is a sphere.

I tried to remove polish from a gel manicure with an acetone soak and received 2nd degree burns, why?

My acetone was really old (back of shelf, didn't want to run to Walmart), I'm wondering if it was the age of the acetone or because of the chemical reaction between the two things: Acetone and the gel product that I received second degree chemical burns? Please be careful, everyone! I'm in pain, 10 fingers wrapped with Neosporin, on antibiotics, pain pills, received a tetanus shot, have an emergency hospital bill, need Dr. follow up, and I'm wearing plastic gloves over bandages to function daily. What a mess.

I'm not feeling any progress in therapy, what should I do?

Finding the right doctor is a very important thing. You need to be strong enough to first tell your current doctor about your belief or feeling that she is not fulfilling your needs, then you need to be strong enough to select a different doctor if her answer does not satisfy you. Please consider the psychological need you have to maintain contact. If you explore that with this doctor and still feel as though your are not progressing, you should look for someone else.

Do I have frostbite or frostnip?

This sounds ridiculous, but I was scooping ice cream at a friend's house and they must have a sub zero freezer because my finger started tingling and burning while I was scooping it out. I had to use my finger to get the ice cream which was sticking to the scooper off. I went to run it under warm water but I accidentally turned the cold on first and it felt hot to me. I then let it warm up and it still felt hot even though it was just warm. It is now 4 hours later and my finger is burning, tingling, and feeling kind of numb but there isn't really much color difference. It might just be slightly more red than my other fingers. No blisters or anything like that. It does feel a little tight around the skin on the tip of it. I put soothing cream on it but it is just burning and hurts worse when I touch it on anything. It's pretty painful!

I am 5 months pregnant and have started buying baby things and what not. I bought this really cute teddy specially made for newborns, and somehow my puppy (who eats everything!) has got hold of it and chewed it a bit. Some stuffing came out but I've put more in and sewn it back together. I have thoroughly washed it by hand, in warm soapy water and tumble dried it. Is it still safe to give to my baby? I'm only worried about germs and things from the dog which are harmful to babies. Thanks in advance :)

I will say, good job on the narrative and spelling, but one thing you left out...what engine. I would guess the 3.1L ? if you are loosing coolant the problems will start. The computer will set a "limp home mode" and cause all kind of issues. In a 1998 OBDII car I would start with the codes set.

How do I remove professionally done gel nails?

About 2 1/2 weeks ago me and a couple friends went to get our nails done. so i have had them on for a little while. Today i attempted to remove them and just made my hands look horrible.

How can i safely remove glued in hair extensions?

i had the klix hair system for 2 years. it left me with bald spots from the metal connections and i was always worrying about "showing". i am white and have fine, thin hair. when i moved i went to the local college and spent hundreds of dollars on what appeared to be very good hair. the director supervised the whole project. the problem came in when they were removed. i have found that they use acetone to remove the glue. it has torn the extensions up horribly. i hate to think about what it has done to my real hair. what other removers can be used with the glue. the cut the weft into small sections then glued. it seemed to provide support spreading the weight across several strands. because if the damage i actually wore it in a braid for a very important function. help, plz.

How can I avoid hurting my sister's feelings?

My older sister is about a year into doing her beauty course and she keeps asking me to come into her class to have my nails and make up done for her course work. The problem is that she's really terrible at doing it! She did acrylic nails for me a few months back when I was going to a party and not only did she scuff my cuticles RAW with her nail file, but she put far too much acrylic on my nails and it was almost impossible to get off. I had to soak my raw fingers in acetone for hours just to weaken the acrylic enough to scrape it off. By the end of it, my fingers were so sore and throbbing I could barely use my hands :P I feel terrible because I keep turning her down, but I really can't put myself through that ordeal again. It's scared me off ever having my nails done, even in a professional salon. And I've seen her apply make up on people, and they always turn out looking awful. So my question is; how do I tell her I don't want her to do any of these things without hurting her feelings? :(

CRAP!!! Fake nails problem?

Okay so I bought fake nails that last only a week but they are pretty good quality I guess. They've popped off a few times because I didn't use enough glue. It's the 7th day and even though the package said don't bend or break the nails, I already popped off all but 4 because they were about to fall off anyway. The directions for removing them say soak in acetone polish remover, but all I have is NON-acetone!! I don't have time to go to the store. Is acetone extremely important or will non-acetone do the job?? thanks!

My tattoo is completely peeling. Help?

I know tattoo peeling is normal, but the black shading of the tattoo I just got 3 days ago is peeling off completely. I called the shop and they said to wait a few weeks to let it heal and they would touch it up. I just want to know if this is normal. Is this due to faulty tattooing or is this natural? This didn't happen with my other tattoo but it wasn't as large. Any advice?

How can I care for my Dining Room set?

I have a gorgeous set, big table with two wide leaves, and 6 chairs with padded seats. For the most part it's all in great shape, with a walnut top and chairs, and the table's apron and legs are an antiqued painted finish. The problem is that if I put anything at all on it, it seems to leave a mark - not a white ring - but a mark I can see when I stand back a little and let the light bounce off the table top. Is the finish faulty? (I purchased it used) What can I do, short of using a table pad all the time and not letting the beautiful wood show?

How to remove paint from plastic?

I painted the center console and ac vents in my jeep a few months ago with crylon. The sun has made the paint bubble up. I need to strip he paint off. I can't sand it because I simply can't get sand paper into all the painted areas. I need something That will disolve the paint without Harming the plastic. I though about using dot 3 brake fluid. it's very good at dissolving paint. But I want to repaint this and I don't think paint would stick to it after being soaked in brake fluid. And acetone is to harsh for the plastic. I have a high pressure water jet. I was thinking if I could dissolve the paint enough the high pressure water could take care of the rest. Do you have any suggestions on what I could use?

My Pelonis space heater shorted out and caused a fire. Do I have a case?

My Pelonis ceramic space heater caused a fire in my family room. I'm so glad we were home and awake! The heater was off but still plugged in. Honestly during the winter it's a permanent fixture in that room because it gets so cold. We do turn it off but typically do not unplug it. The other morning I heard what sounded like a cell phone vibrating, very loudly I might add. The next thing I new I heard my husband screaming "fire, fire, fire....He's your typical goof ball...so I figured he's goofing off with the kids...I turned around and looked into the family room and saw he was serious. There was a fire up the wall and behind the chair. He was able to get the fire out on his own however there was some damage. The plug on the heater shorted out (actually melted in the outlet). We did get an estimate for the damages and it's just over 8,000.00. We do have home owners insurance but I'm curious to know if it's worth the time and effort to try to have the manufacturer of the heater pay for the damages. It could have been a lot worse had we not been home and/or asleep but if this could be faulty manufacturing I don't think it's fair we are stuck with a large deductible.

Whys my amp cutting out?

I have a car audio setup in my house. Whenever I turn up the volume on my radio my amp cuts out and makes my sub do a popping noise. I've had a few people on youtube tell me my power supply isnt good enough and I need a car battery to power the amp. I also thought the same thing. My bro on the other hand told me that my power supply pushes a constant 12 volts and there is no voltage drop involved. He told me its probably doing it because my sub is not broke in yet and the amp is trying to push a lot of watts to it and its freaking the amp out making it cut out. Or the amp is just faulty. I dont understand. Can someone please tell me what the real problem is.

I'm stuck at guitar. Can you help?

u gotta practice your scales and arpeggios. the reason ur having trouble playing fast is because your left and rite hands are not in sync with eachother. once thats taken care of, it really just becomes a matter of getting comfortable with what your trying to play. because unless theres a physically taxing quality to it, like a very wide stretch for instance...it just boils down to picking the same way you did to play those scales. and the scales are the simplest way to address that problem.

Regarding faulty wiring?

Recently I had my flat rewired by a qualified electrician. Everything is OK with the exception in one area. There are three four plugs installed in the room. Even after switching off the plugs, the tester shows presence of electricity, if it is put inside the plug hole (most probably the negative hole). Is this dangerous, because I am using a geyser from one of the plugs.

Cutting your grass weekly/biweekly keeps weeds out. The higher you let your grass get the more it's going to smother the seedlings and block the sun. It's necessary to cut the grass to allow for a thick beautiful lawn.

High blood pressure at 19?

I agree that those public blood pressure may not be the best indicator. One size does not fit all. Believe it or not there is a proper way to take a blood pressure. Sitting for 5 mins, arm at heart level, with proper size cuff. If you are a muscular person or overweight a normal cuff will give a false high reading. If a cuff is too large it will be a false low reading. If you feel fine have it checked if there is a local health fair. Or you could go to the local paramedic/EMT station when they are not busy. If you see'em sitting outside their not busy. Then ask what their policy is and explain your situation, Then tell them you appreciate their professionalism.

i took one test last night, and another this morning, one was a first response and another was answer. both tests did this. i would see a faint positive start to develop, the line was fairly obvious, then it would disappear, and i cant tell if i see something or not! this would happen in probably a minute or so after i peed on it. could these be faulty tests, or could they just be crazy positives? we have been trying for 10 months for a baby...so we would be happy. we did decide if it didnt happen this time we would give it a rest, so im nervous to know! period is due tomorrow as well

To ladies who like to be ravaged by men, help!?

I posted a few days ago about something similar, and got great responses, but I'm going to get more specific with my question. She wants to be ravaged, and is very shy. She doesn't want to make bedroom eyes at me when she's in the mood, obviously she wants me to come after her. I am totally okay with, and enjoy roughness and taking charge. So, my question: how to initiate? Do I just need to grab her and take her by surprise? Do I need to warm her up first? If so, how do I go about it? (she has stated "I'm not really a makeout girl." So a massage, or drawn out foreplay seems counter productive... If she just wants to be taken, I can totally do it, I think I just need a woman to confirm this/ give some advice. Thanks!

Is my turbocharger blown or is it a boost leak?

I've got an 87 Toyota Supra single turbo and this is my first turbocharged vehicle so I'm still trying to learn about them. I've been driving my car around fine up until this morning. It seems like after the car warms up the turbo will make a "whining" noise kinda like a supercharger for just a few seconds when it starts to boost. Then it stops! After I stop boosting then start again, it does the same thing! The car is still hitting 5-7psi no problem, but once I hold steady boost for a while it seems like the car is losing power.

Blackberry Phones ... UK Question.?

My phone is on Orange network, and T-mobile signal comes up sometimes on the screen too. Both of them have been merged purposely to try and create the largest mobile phone company in the UK. I don't have a blackberry however, but my other friends do and they are on 02, and have no problem with signal, and i have problem with signal also with being on orange/t-mobile, and my phone is an LG cookie. I would suggest changing networks, Orange and T-mobile are rubbish at the moment.

Side effects of huffing Toluol, Acetone, and Xylene?

What are the side effects of huffing spray paint containing all three of the above chemicals by spraying it into a bag, then breathing it in and out of the bag for about 5 minutes? Say you did this on and off for about 2 hours, and you inhaled the "paint dust" too.

Has anybody else had this problem with their mac computers?

We have a mac (one of the newer, non-portable ones) and last Summer it wouldn't turn on. As in, it was all fine one day, and then the next day it just had no power. We had to send it away to be fixed for 8 weeks until we finally got it back. This, unfortunately, has happened again yesterday and our computer has been sent away...again. I always thought that macs were supposed to be such good quality but I've had a Toshiba as long as the mac and have had zero problems with it whereas our mac has now been sent away for repairs twice in less than a year. Did we just happen to get the one faulty mac or are any of you having this problem?

Is it normal for three rooms to be wired to one 15A circuit breaker?

that might even be illegal it's certainly against code, as none of the circuits is fully protected to its maximum(theoretically only 5 amps each) aside from that if the air conditioner is one with an air hose that goes out of a window or door they are hugely inefficient and expensive to run they use cooled air in the room to cool the heat exchanger so it is constantly pumping expensive cooled air out of the window, because they pull thousands of cubic feet of air through the room they also make rooms dustier and dirtier, a portable split unit is far better and can actually save money

ACETONE- Anyone had trouble with o-rings or anything at all after using acetone in their car as fuel additive?

Yes it will rot your gas lines. I have been using a new Fuel treatment that has raised my mpg from 23 to 29.5. If you are interested it is called XFT Xtreme Fuel Treatment

There's no way for us to know without any description of the problem. A diagnosis of a "faulty chipset" is really nothing more than "something is wrong".

My acrylic nails won't come off?

Are you sure that you're using pure acetone? After 45 minutes, the acrylic should be long gone. I only have to soak mine for about 15 to 20. I buy professional grade acetone from a beauty supply store. Double check that it is pure acetone. If it is, go back to where you had them done and see if they can remove them for you.

Does having a shower warm up your muscles?

I know you can't stretch cold muscles but I can't really do any form of cardio at the moment because I've injured my ankle. So, I was just wondering, is having a shower enough to warm them up?

How can I safely warm up my recently colored hair?

I had my hair colored by someone new yesterday and I don't like it. I usually have some warmth and depth to it, but this stylist used a different color and it's just kind of drab. Is there a product I can use to just warm it up a bit myself, that would be safe to use over the color I just had? Or should I call the guy and tell him I'm not happy with it (awkward). I did pay a lot......and it didn't cover the gray real well, either. What should I do? It's not awful, just not real pretty. :(

I lost my hamster and I'm not sure how to get her back!?

So I have a pet hamster and recently my dad has been re-constructing our house and taking up floor boards and because our house isn't fully decorated yet there are some holes, like near the electric fireplace, in the floorboards, etc. Well recently my hamster escaped because we have this cage we needed to return because it's lid is faulty and wont shut correctly, we put books on top of it until we got were to get the problem sorted, but we didn't get around to sorting the cage out. My hamster escaped late Sunday night to around very early morning, we know this because my dad went to bed and he saw her in her cage perfectly fine around late Sunday night. So we woke up the next morning and the books fell off her cage and her lid was loose, we briefly looked around the house and couldn't find her, but because we're downstairs due to the construction on our house means that she was in the dining room and we have an arch going through our dining room to our living room and the living room is a door away from the kitchen. We couldn't find her and because there's so many holes in the room we gave up for a while because we figured she'd be asleep as it was morning. So when I came home from school we waited until night and then we considered the fact that she could have climbed the stairs, although I couldn't of imagined her to do so, but she was able to. My mum said it would have taken her a long time to climb the stairs, but then she did have all night so that was a fact we might like to consider. We did hear a series of sounds that night when we were looking for her, and in the dining room we found no holes that she could squeeze through and she wasn't stuck in any of our recliners as we went through them and looked under them, not in any of our drawers, not behind the bookcases or not inside the kitchen as the door was closed and she wouldn't have been able to fit through. So the only main place she could have gone was the gap under the fireplace, which has many boards for her to climb, but has many stone walls around it, I never thought she would be able to climb up there but we looked up the wall by using my brothers phone with the torch to record up there and she was nowhere to be seen, however it did go right up to the top ceiling of our house so we did consider that she could have been up there and that was the most obvious place to look. Only recently have I gone upstairs and seen that the main places she could have gone was my brothers room, which door he usually keeps open slightly, my room but its all boarded up and my dad has sorted the holes out in that room, or the bathroom, which floorboards are all up with lots of holes, but the holes only lead under the floorboards so she'd be fine underneath and there's so many places to look in the bathroom, so there's two main places she would have gone, up the fireplace wall, which is completely safe, or under the floorboards upstairs. How can I find her? It really upsets me that I don't know where she is and for all I know she could be gone. We also found a hamster dropping near the coffee table which is near the fireplace, so she might have been up there.. please help me, and if you spent your time reading this I really do appreciate it! Thank-you so much if you can help me and it actually works, I can't spare the fact that she could be dead and I don't know about it, I'd rather her die in her own home, thank-you!

How can I get a better nights sleep?

I need the have a lot of sleep because im a very active person but lately i haven't been able to get a good nights sleep (nightmares, waking up at 2 am, not being able to fall asleep etc.) I dont know what is causing this but i really need help because so far none of my ideas have worked (warm milk before bed, heat pad to warm up the bed, relaxing before trying to fall asleep etc.)

QUESTIONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN…

Lately I've been feeling cold for no reason, for the past few months, for e.g. if it is a hot day I don't feel that hot. Currently the temperature is 25 degrees but I'm not even feeling warm, infact I'm feeling cool, little to the cold side. Is there a problem with this? No wonder I've been thinking this whole summer it's really not that hot, when it in fact may be.

Car overheating? What is the problem?

I have an older car 96 Olds. In the warmer months the temp gauge seems to go a little high. The hottest temp it goes to on my gauge is 280 and the needle gets to approx 240 at times. When the car is moving fast like freeway driving it stays lower 210-220 maybe. When I am city driving or idoling it goes right up high. Would a coolant flush and fill help this problem? Also it is ok to drive a car running hotter like this. I have to wait a week for a payday to get it looked at. Any ideas would be helpful. I just don't want to ruin anything. Thank you.

I was sitting on my couch and the lights in my ceiling fan (all 4 bulbs) went out....any ideas?

Either a bad connection on the hot or neutral where it comes into the switches or bad connection on the neutral at the fan. Check the connections at the switch box to make sure they are secure to the switches and under the wire nuts. Since the fan vibrates as it runs I suspect the neutral connection was not tight at the fan. Make sure all connections at the fan are secure within the wire nuts.

Power adapter limited?

It depends, I have seen some adapters that change the voltage and some that are only adapters that don't change the voltage. If it is a transforming adapter it could be overloaded by the light and that's why it may not be working. It also could be the voltage since the US uses 110 and the UK uses 240 and the led bulbs often use low voltage themselves and have their own transformer and you could be over powering it but I think if that was the case it would have burned out as soon as you plugged it in.

A tree or bush question?

My family and I just moved into home on about 2 acres this winter and as the weather has gotten much warmer lately I was walking around my yard the other day and saw a couple of trees and bushes that both have red berries and black berries also. My question is does anyone know if this could be a raspberry or black raspberry tree or if black and red raspberries even come on a tree. We also have bushes with the same berries as the tree. The berries are red or black and both colors seem ripe not like they are unripe still. I would love for this to be a black raspberry tree but dont want to fool myself either. Any info on berry trees or bushes would be great. Thanks!

I need to compare 2 solvents and their ability to separate bands on a TLC plate?

One solvent is 70% Ether and 30% Acetone. Solvent number 2 is 70% Ether and 30% Chloroform. These 2 solvents were used on spinach extract to develop a TLC plate. Regarding these 2 solvents, how do the changes in the solvent polarity affect the behavior of pigments whose structures include polar or potentially ionized functional groups?

Should'nt positive hpt's get darker as you test?Please read,i need your thoughts.:(?

Congrats, you are pregnant! Light bleeding is normal too. From the sounds of it, you aren't that far along so it wouldn't be a super strong line anyway. I always had light ones for both of my kids, and both are fine (spotting with both as well). The best thing you can do is go to the doc and have them take your HCG counts 48hrs apart (tell them you have spotted, but tested pos) and if the numbers go up, you are much more likely to carry your baby to term. I hope all is well with your little one!

Hi! my wife is eight months pregnant and she has been vomiting a lot for more than a month and it is not stopp?

Why didn't my smoke detectors go off?

I had just returned from a outing to find out that the whole house is full of smoke. Appartenly I had left the burner on under the pot of peach preserve that I was making earlier that day. A thick white smoke was bellowing from the pot. Took it out and put it out. But the house was so full of smoke, my eyes would burn everytime I went back in. Surprisingly none of the smoke detectors in the whole house had gone off ! I have at least 4 outside the kitche area (living room, foyer, up the staircase, and inside my office on first floor) all of them hardwired. All these areas were smokey, but no alarms went off. The one upstairs is from ADT and that should have caused ADT to call me about the smoke. The ones downstairs are different brand and relatively newer (2005). If there were only one smoke detector, I would suspect faulty detector, but 4. I am not even counting all the onesin bedrooms upstairs, which are battery operated. The bedrooms were smokey too but not as bad as downstairs. Could it be that ALL my detectors are bad? or are they not designed to detect smoke from burning sugar?!

Can I lose weight effectively by doing this?

I was wondering if I could possibly lose weight by sweating it off in my sleep in warm weather, you burn calories in your sleep but I have still had baby fat for my entire life in my stomach area even though I have been working out on and off for the last few years. Even though I do mostly benching and lifting I need to lose belly fat.

I M so scared, i think i ate acetone, what do i do?

Ok, so i removed my nail polish and still had a little acetone on my hands aer i dried them. And i got a drink and there was like a crumb in there, so I used my hand to take it out, and when i drank it i couldn't tell if i had drank acetone, because my drink was tangy too. Well right now i feel fine, i just feel anxious from reading about acetone poisoning..am i ok? What are symptoms?

If they can't see atoms how do they get chemical formulas?

Seeing as how no one has ever seen an atom, how do they know the exact structures of molecules? Also, if the main proofs of atoms are math and brownian motion (which could be any number of things, not just 'atoms'), then when they updated the size of the neutron a few years back and made it much larger, does that mean all chemistry based on math was flawed and needs to be redone, or that those scientists were just trying to cover their own faulty math? Does any one have the experiment to prove chemical composition of various substances?

Would you call God a crappy engineer?

Youre right in some respects he did create us with so many flaws but i think the blame goes both ways. We messed up alot of things by our own doings, but God definitely has some splaining to do for some of the things that happen that purely aint our fault.

What happened to my knee?

About a week ago I was playing tennis and doing my morning workout. But after that day, I notice pain on my right knee. I have never had this pain on my knee before. Whenever I bend my leg, my knee feels like I'm stretching it and feel like it can snap. I'm sorry it's difficult to explain. Do I have this pain because I didn't warm up on that day before my workout? or maybe I just took a wrong step while playing tennis? I don't think I broke my knee but maybe a sprain? Please help..thanks!!

Help with tomato plant, it's not growing and the fruit is blotchy red/orange/yellow?

sounds like too much overhead watering i am in high desert too. you have to deep water the tomatoes once maybe twice a week this mean a slow drip at the base of plant directly into the soil, do this overnight for new plants this causes the roots to go deep to seek the water, removing the first set of leaves at the base of the plant also helps to strengthen the plant. never water the leaves or the fruit directly this causes the water to cook the plants in desert heat. too much water also cause the fruit to burst or develop fungal infections , try rabbit manure for more natural fertilizing. Miracle grow is often too harsh and it burns the plants . tomatoes changing colors while ripening is typical but not the soft blotchy fruit. remember tomatoes ARE weeds too! and like most weeds they often do best when not over cared for.

Will an upgrade to windows 7 fix a windows vista update reboot loop?

My computer running Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit is stuck in an endless reboot loop after displaying "Installing Updates: Step 3 of 3. 0%". I checked online and it said the reboot loop is caused by a faulty update. The official fix for it was booting from the original install DVD and then using system restore to go back to an earlier point. The problem is that my computer didn't find any points to restore from and I am now stuck with a rebooting computer that won't let me access any of my files or even get to the login screen. I was wondering, if I perform an upgrade (NOT a clean install) from windows vista to windows 7, will it fix the reboot loop? Supposedly I can just boot from the windows 7 Install DVD without logging into vista. I cannot do a clean install or a reinstall of vista because I have all my music and documents that aren't backed up. please help. Any other working fixes for this problem are also appreciated.

Why does acetone evaporates faster than water?

The atomic structure of acetone is such that the molecules don't stick together because the polarization is equally distributed across the entire surfaces of the molecule. This makes them want to achieve a more natural gaseous state. Water is slightly polarized on one side, making the molecules a bit sticky and more likely to stay around each other rather than go into gas.

Pouring nail polish remover into the sink?

I poured some nail polish remover into a small bowl and after I was done, there was some left around 5 0z in the bowl. I went to the sink and poured the acetone in the bowl back into the bottle. About half of it (2/2.5 oz) went into the sink accidentally and onto the dirty dishes/pots that were in there. I washed all the dishes with soap and put them in the drying rack and drained all the water. Now I'm worried. Was it safe that I spilled some acetone into the sink? I heard it is flammable. And would washing the dishes get the acetone off and safe to eat off of?

Maytag front loader not spining?

Should i wear sweats during warm up for a dance class?

For ballet you want to wear tight fitted clothing like maybe a leotard and tights because if you wear baggy clothes like sweats then the instructor can't see your form and technique so it would make it more difficult for him/her to correct you. And for tap and jazz, i think as long as your comfortable then its ok. But for tap, make sure your sweats don't cover your feet or ankles because then you'll find it hard to tap and the teacher will find it hard to see your feet.

Problems with central air conditioning?

This is an apartment. The inside fan motor wasn't spinning, but the outside heat exchanger was working. The unit is in the ceiling of the apartment. I opened up the access panel, and saw that the thing that looks like a radiator was covered with ice. It was melting, and I put a bucket under it. I turned the fan from auto to "on" and the fan came on. I turned the other control from off to "cool" and all I could hear was a click. The outside heat exchanger would not come on. I would flick the 2 switches on and off, and occasionally the outside exchanger would come on, but 98% of the time it just made a loud click. What could be the problem, and how would I diagnose it? I've replaced several faulty motors/capacitors and contactors before on different units. Something like a condensor or compressor is beyond my capability. Right now, the ice is thawing. There is no safety switch that disables the unit when the access panel is removed. Thank you.

this has happened for the past 3 days. it is set to 77 and works fine all day until about 5:00 pm when it shoots up to 79. will go down to 77 around 8:00 pm. coincidentally, the dryer has been on each time this has happened. will check it tomorrow without the dryer - but could it be related? yes we live in florida but until last year we have never had a problem with the a/c. last year this happened but the temp went even higher and turned out the t-stat had to be replaced. maybe it is faulty?

Car won't start unless it's jumped!, please help!!!!?

There must be a short somewhere in the car's wiring that's draining your battery. It'll be tricky to track down. It's likely shorting through the car's body or something. All the jump starts on the battery can and will ruin the battery in the long run. If I'm right, if you pop off one of the poles of the battery before leaving the car for the night, then re-attaching the pole and then starting your car should work.

Is making a crack of a faulty Game Disc to get it to run legal?

I don't know how to make one, but I think as long as you only use it for yourself, it's fine. That's the premise behind ROMs: they're games made available to download online as long as you have a copy of the game (of course whether people follow that rule is another question..)

What do you think about this?

I like it. It was suspenseful from the beginning, however, the only think I didn't like was how you used her full name in the first sentence. I think you should just say her first name, and introduce her last name at a time where it more appropriate. It is very good though. (:

How to deal with rude/ mean coaches?

I've had asshole coaches in the last couple of years and the only reason why I didnt ***** them out was because I would probably lose my shot at varsity baseball for the future. If u dont see yourself moving on and achieving anything in the sport definitely just go and cuss out your coach I've always wanted to do it and still regret it. Remember you can always find a better team that's more fun or a better sport

3 questions; please answer!?

A half pound to one pound difference could be almost anything (clothing, body fluids, etc.) so I do not believe it was your hair. As for your second question, no you can not gain weight from taking vitamins. Vitamins are essential for your body but will not make you gain weight at all. As for a meal plan you should eat a diet that is 30 percent fat, 30 percent protein, and 40 percent carbohydrates. Try to eat around 2000 calories a day.

Why should we care about global warming?

It is not going to produce any lasting impacts on my life, so why should I be forced to pay exorbitant taxes just because of the "future of the human race"? I don't care if all life is eradicated on earth within 150 years, so long as it does not happen in my life time. I think most Americans share that sentiment. So, even if countries are trying to reduce their "carbon emissions", what are they going to do about our proudly excessive "carbon emissions"? Do people realize that there is no practical and feasible solution to global warming? Pie-in-the-sky solutions of global cooperation is just fantasy that should not be taken seriously.

Liberals: If global warming is real, why aren't countries doing anything about it?

Countries are constantly looking out in their best interest and how to sustain themselves for as long a period as possible. Global warming implies that there is an international threat, but why aren't countries acting and imposing regulation? Is it because it is nothing more than an environmentalist fantasy to try and tax hard-working citizens even more?

My therapist wants to put me on medication, what do I do?

I've been in your shoes. When one is down, having a more compassionate doctor helps someone. The last thing a person wants is to have a person that is the opposite of that. People in that career should be more understanding. Just know that you aren't alone when it comes to insurance and different types of doctors. Try to take her at face value and know it's not you. It's her personality and nothing personal towards you. As far as email is concerned, my doctor didn't like me emailing her either. Don't they realize email is how people communicate these days? I know they like seeing one face to face, but in between appts would be nice if they didn't mind emails. About the medications, I'm on medications and I feel much better. If they can help you feel better in life, give them a try. Sometimes though, they have to find the right medication for you; therefore, you may have to go thru different ones until you find the one that works for you. And remember that they don't work right away. also, the way we think, determines how we feel. It's not easy, but try teaching yourself that. Lastly, hang in there. You aren't alone!

What is the easiest, non-painful way to remove acrylic nails?

I've been searching around the internet and i have found some ideas that might work.. (soaking in acetone..using a metal file and floss..) but the metal file and floss one sounds painful! and i am a total wimp when it comes to taking these things off! any suggestions? (: and fast please!

Was it okay that I poured nail polish remover down the sink?

I poured some nail polish remover into a small bowl and after I was done, there was some left around 5 0z in the bowl. I went to the sink and poured the acetone in the bowl back into the bottle. About half of it (2/2.5 oz) went into the sink accidentally and onto the dirty dishes/pots that were in there. I washed all the dishes with soap and put them in the drying rack and drained all the water. Now I'm worried. Was it safe that I spilled some acetone into the sink? I heard it is flammable. And would washing the dishes get the acetone off and safe to eat off of?

Please read ,concerned. I keep getting faint hpt's .They are not getting darker. Bleeding and feeling sick.?

Usually they would be getting darker, but at 9DPO you should get a faint line, many woman would just get a negative at that point. What DPO are you now? Its possible a faint positive at this point still makes sense.. and even if they are not getting darker yet that does not mean your pregnancy is not progressing... you should just get a blood test done to measure your levels accurately.

Is it normal for a 15 year old girl to get hot flashes?

I've had them occasionally for almost as long as I can remember. It usually happens when I'm in a lot of pain, I'll have hot flashes (this is especially true when i get bad stomach aches) or when it's too hot (obviously lol). I get them maybe once or twice a week. I'm also really sensitive to temperatures though, like if it's kind of chilly out I'll be freezing to death, or if it's a little warm I'm sweating buckets. Do my hot flashes have anything to do with that? I didn't really think anything of it till I found it that it's usually more common for older women. Should I see a doctor or anything?

Getting accidentall spray paint off of a car?

Ok so I was spraying using a spray gun in our garage, long story short the car got a light mist on it. It's been a while since it happened. Any tips to get the paint off without hurting the cars paint? I've used a touch of acetone in a spot and it didn't seem to work. It's just a light film over the car. I've also washed a couple times, and used the quarter car wash. Even tried waxing it all. Any tips to take this stuff off? Or should I take it to a detail shop to try. Thanks!

Best acid for dissolving an organic substance? Say paper or a twig or some form of plant?

Ive got acess to HCL, HNO3, H2SO4, NaOH (I know its a base), and a variety of solvents (Ethanol, acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone). If anyone has any ideas, that'd be great! I was thinking maybe aqua regia?

How to remove KISS maximum speed nail glue from glass or plastic?

Okay... Let me explain. So, my glasses broke in the front, but they were fixable. So I just put a little nail glue where it had broken off. That's what it looked like was holding it to begin with. Well, after I did this, I waited and blew on it for a second. I mean, since when did maximum speed change? Seemed like it would have been dry. Well, I tried wiping the fingerprints off the lenses and after I realized that I had just wiped some glue onto my lens. So, I've sat here trying to get it off with nail polish remover, but it's cheap. It says it has acetone in it and it gets it off? But I sat here for 5 minutes trying to get it off, and it made it whiter instead. WHAT DO I DO?

Can I remove the nail polish off of my acrylic nails?

I got my nails done today and got a basic red on the acrylic. Not to sure I'm completely thrilled with them, they're a tad bit bright but anyway just wondering if I use a Non-Acetone remover if it will wreck the nails. If not I'm fine with the color just may take a few days to get used to.

Start of a story. Is this good?

I like it! I don't know exactly where I would go with it, but I do have one suggestion. I liked the first time you used the term "frigid". But the 2nd and 3rd seemed overused. Other than that, perfect! I loved it!:) Good luck!

Nail Polish Remover and a CHEESE STICK?

Alright, so an hour or half an hour ago I removed my nail polish with nail polish remover and repainted my nails. Then I ate dinner. WITH a fork and knife and napkins. THEN, completely forgetting about washing my hands, I ate a cheesestick. Yeah...........my hands were dry, but I could taste a subtle acetone in my cheesestick. Am I going to....die? Live? BECOME ILL?

Is Fallout New Vegas less glitchy on the Xbox 360?

I have played both fallout 3 and fallout New Vegas on Xbox360. I JUST got Fallout New Vegas only a few days ago, but so far, it lives up to it's reviews. Game-play is pretty good I have encounter several glitches so far though including; game freezing, missing items, glitch streets and walkways and lost data. Compared to Fallout 3, their are more gun options and Hardcore Mode offers a much more challenging game-play. their are a lot of different perks, and perks that you can earlier on on in Fallout 3 compared to New Vegas. Overall, personally, i give fallout 3 a 8.6 and New Vegas gets a 8.0 because i think the quests are more fun on 3 compared to New Vegas. but that's just me.

Fizzy or buzz sound in my set up....can you help identify it?

I just have my keyboard hooked up to my AV Amplifier via the AUX input using an unbalanced TRS jack. When I turn it on and begin to press the keys there is a fizzy or buzz sound off some of them and its more noticeable as I move up the octaves... C6 onwards. It also happens if I press more than 4 keys that are next to each other. Its NOT a faulty audio adapter or the 50/60hz hum from the mains. Just curious as to what might be causing it... Cheers

I just got my 2001 kia optima out of the shop because the fuse box melted some along with some connectors and wires...they removed the push button start (after market) and said that was probably the cause (faulty wiring job).. i went to pick up my car and it didn't start...the battery is relatively brand new (less than a year old with a 5 year warranty...its like 3-4 months old..so they said we'll check it out...then they said the car started the next day no problem multiple times..and that it was probably a bad ignition switch or neutral switch (neutral something...not sure exactly what they said)..but i drove the car that day and it started just fine in the morning...then i stopped and tried again in like 2 hours and it didnt start...basically it seems the car only starts at night or in the morning....im assuming that means it only seems to like cooler temperatures...EVEN THOUGH once it is started once and the car is warmed up it can be turned on and shut off multiple times no problem (basically everything is normal at night?). is my car a vampire or what!? oh btw my doesnt turnover or make any noise (during the day) when I turn the key from the "on" to "start" position, and the radio turns off when i do go from the "on" to "start" (i read somewhere that that means my ignition switch is fine?).
