Yeh, you have the issue there with NAT. Laptop will be able to make connections to the computer (providing that, its gateway is set as the wireless router) i.e. it will be able to ping, ftp, smb etc.
However, because of the NAT of the wireless router, the computer won't be able to connect to the laptop.
Your setup boggles me somewhat however. Usually, multiple routers are used like this to divide the network up into subnets however you want the laptop to talk to the computer. Shanenin's suggested setup is more sensible for your needs. That is, router #2 connects via one of its switch ports to a switch port on the wireless router (or visa versa).

Even Macs have USB ports. Admittedly, very over-priced USB ports but they're still there.

Heh! What an idiot that last guy was! I mean, any normal person would have gotten a torch to look!

Yahoo mail will redirect all e-mail for you if you set it to. I have mine going to my home mail server.

Since tables are for tabulating data rather than positioning things on a page, this is better:
<div style="text-align: center">
<div>
<img src="img1.jpg" alt="img1" />
</div>
<div style="float: left">
<img src="img2.jpg" alt="img2" />
</div>
<div style="float: right">
<img src="img3.jpg" alt="img3" />
</div>

Which way do you want the triangle orientated?

I think it depends on where you live.
I live in the middle of nowhere surrounded by a few old people and lots of sheep. There's little chance that anyone would have the hardware to connect to my network let alone abuse it however I still secure it in the best way I can, (WPA + MAC Address Filtering + Hidden SID). I realise WPA2 is clearly a better encryption system but until N is released as a real standard I'll wait to upgrade my hardware.

I feel the question is somewhat pointless. Of course you should secure your wireless network else you risk sharing your private data with the world along with risking your own ISP subscription by allowing activities to be carried out through your connection which may be against your ISPs policy, i.e. DDOS drones and the such-like.

"Even comes with 6 months of Norton free subscription."
Are you implying in some way that makes it good...?

So it has a 3" screen and breaks a lot? Any other "features"?

You'd be better just using a client on each PC and syncing it with a public NTP server since they can keep the time a hella lot better than your average PC.
The public NTP server I use to sync my servers clocks is ntp0.nl.uu.net
This is an NTP sync client tool for Windows that I've used before. It worked well.

This is a problem I encountered the other day. I removed a drive from a box and took the files from it as it was heavily infected with malware and wouldn't boot. I put it back into the box - however, being 2am, I forgot to plug it in. I turned the box on and it clearly didn't detect it. Turned the box off and spent hours trying to get it to redetect the drive once I plugged it back in. Turned out that the drive had to be manually configured in the BIOS, i.e. enter number of sectors, heads etc. rather than it having the sense to auto detect it.
This could be your problem.

Would XML be a right choice for this? or could i do this with a .dat or .txt file.
XML is a markup language and .txt/.dat are file extensions. They are only related in such that they are both concerned with computers.
The best and easiest way to store this data would be in a database. However, if you want to use a flat file method, then XML isn't a bad start. This is because it can easily be put through regex matches to get out the data you need. The actual storage of the data in a flat file is irrelevant. You can name the file myfile.qwerty if you really wanted to. The computer will care not what the extension is. It'll read the contents of it no matter what extension it has.

Nice link Bearskin. It goes into depth and gives some good information on many topics.

hehe. Dust is one of the most common causes of hardware malfunction.
Glad you got it working.

It is connected to a router, and the to my ethernet port on my computer. The cable works fine, as I am able to connect to the internet via my laptop, so it is most likely some type of software problem.
Doubt it. If the cable works then it's likely one of your ports. If you're on the same router port with the laptop then it's likely your desktop's port. Blow it out to remove dust etc. and check the cable is going in securely. If this doesn't help, it's likely you'll need a new card.

I assume you have a network cable plugged into said port? If so, what is it connected to?

Upgrade version will upgrade from a copy of windows XP and will let you choose whether to keep your files or delete them. It will not however install from fresh on its own.
The full version will do all of the above but it will install from fresh on its own.

Hrmmm, sad when the birthday boy tells me to post to wish him happy birthday... But yeah, have a great one anyway

It uses php yes. Almost certainly uses some kind of relational database system, possibly mysql or it could be postgre, msql, oracle etc.
The picture changing is very simple. It would just select random cars from the database on each page load and stick them in.

I have had this problem before on xp home. The cause was that there were no shared files for it to access so it errors in a nice windows style way, telling you nothing about what has caused it.
All i did was to right click a single folder somewhere, go to the sharing tab, and clicked share this folder.
And all was ok.
Check you are sharing files and see if that helps
