seriously i dont know what your talking about when you say computers amaze you. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/dunno.gif

Some of this stuff you can do. Just plug and play... things I never thought about doing are simply doable.

thats cuz some guy sat for hours writing code to make it work http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

oh geez...

hahaha I laughed for 5 minutes when I saw this... because I can picture and hear him saying this in my head. :rofl

I spent an hour online trying to figure out why my computer wasn't detecting my USB harddrive.

Turns out, I had actually plugged the USB into the Network port, and it actually fit.

OMG.. u are a dork james. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/smile.gif http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...smilies/jk.gif

:jig

um.. the network plug and the usb plug are completely different kinds of plugs... i doubt it 'fit' http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

probably the width of the usb plug fit into the width of the network port. ...

funny nonetehless http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/lol2.gif

Yep - same width. They sit side by side on the back of my Presario. Im surprised I didn't blow up my network card.

Poor planning on the part of Compaq. Obviously, If I am stupid enough to buy a notebook that sounds like a hairdryer with bad bearings, I'm stupid enough to plug an USB into anything it fits.

A coupld of weeks later, I found my girlfriend trying to plug a mouse into the s-video port, which looks almost identical.

yeaup, they are actually, the same size, share similar pins, and the only real difference is the insde package of the pin and slot the pin is plugged into.

( i looked ) http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...lies/dunno.gif http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif

yeah true... the ps2 ports do look similar to svid...
and yeah i see what you mean about the usb thing - i actually think some one i know did that too once. i guess its an understandable mistake http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif
