-
on my pc. then i realised the router only came with 1 wire to connect to 1 computer which is mine. so i cant connect it to my bro's pc. is this supposed to happen?
my bro's pc also came with no recovery disk and no OS disk so what do we do when we need to reformat it. -

Read the router's manual to configure it properly. You will need a USB adapter in order to get the signals...
Your bro's PC - DIY or branded? DIY has no recovery discs or OS discs. You want, you buy or go and download Linux. -
it's not wireless because it says cable/dsl router and it has 4 holes.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Router = wireless

Then you have to buy another cable to plug in.Originally posted by Eric Cartman:it's not wireless because it says cable/dsl router.
branded
Branded PCs should give you the discs, did you check the box that comes with the PC? They always chuck it somewhere or they put it in smaller boxes.
If it isn't there, call up the customer service centre and request for a copy. Ask for the original discs, don't get recovery discs. Recovery discs take up a lot of unnecessary space and bundle a lot of useless programs. -

also the lcd monitor wont give any sound. -
What sounds do you expect to be given off from an lcd monitor? I prefer it if there is no sound, sound coming from a place that usually shouldn't indicates trouble.Originally posted by Eric Cartman:k

the monitor has speaker holes.Originally posted by ditzy:What sounds do you expect to be given off from an lcd monitor? I prefer it if there is no sound, sound coming from a place that usually shouldn't indicates trouble. -
Oh, so did you plug the speaker cables from the monitor to the output then?Originally posted by Eric Cartman:the monitor has speaker holes. -
the whole thing included no speakers. the monitor is supposed to also act as the speaker.Originally posted by ditzy:Oh, so did you plug the speaker cables from the monitor to the output then? -
The whole thing must have came in 2nd hand, no instruction manual to go with it.Originally posted by Eric Cartman:the whole thing included no speakers. the monitor is supposed to also act as the speaker. My lcd monitor also comes with built in speakers and theres a separate cable for audio I need to plug in at its source. Unless you tell me your lcd monitor's speakers are bluetooth streaming. -
oh! that explains the extra wire.Originally posted by ditzy:The whole thing must have came in 2nd hand, no instruction manual to go with it.

notice carefully.. there is a green cable which comes with the LCD monitor... plug it into the back of the LCD and the other end, into the back of the CPU.. tat should solve the prob of not having sounds..
