Software questions.....
1
What is Microsoft works?
My PC has normal Word, Excel, Outlook express, etc....
Microsoft works saysit has Works edition Word, and Works edition Excell etc....
???
So can this be changed to the full normal version? And is that possible if you know someone with hte software CD for that programme? Can you just insert and install/upgrade???
2
What is a soundcard? Systems say "no soundcard supplied" but still get speakers with em - does it mean you can still play CD's and say, downloaded movies on the PC without this soundcard?
(My laptop won't emit any sound from the speakers (built in) when playing CD's as it says no soundcard installed )
3
What is a "video card" - as above ^^^
[b]What is a "graphics card" - as above ^^^
Thanking you please

>>>>>>Works edition from memory includes less functionality than the normal version. I recieved a document from Works Word and normal word didnt pick the formatting up. I cant be 100% certain on that one as I was going cross versions but thats what I think it was.
I dont think it can be upgraded but you can remove and install normal office.

>>>>>>>>>>>A sound card gives you the ability to play audio so it seems unusual they supply speakers but no sound card as there wouldnt be anything to plug the speakers into.

>>>>>>>> I am sure a video card and graphics card are the same but different terminology. They enable the viewing of footage and different qualities are available depending on whether you play a lot of games more than anything.
