Multiplayer on Age of Empires 2 ,1No internet. Can i plug a internet cable and connect it on the other comp?

So basicly, i want to put a internet cable on a computer,and put the other side of the cable on the other computer, when i go in age of empires 2, how do i find the other computer?

The cable is probably "Ethernet" with an RJ-45 connector.

Make an ethernet connection between the 2 PCs, then establish a TCP/IP connection.

Start your game on each PC

You need the disc in to play a network game.

Choose multiplayer, and then select connection type to be Local (LAN) TCP/IP

Click the Create button

Click the IP button (that will report your machines IP address)

The person joining on the other PCs will enter the IP number of the PC the game is being set up on.

Read your game manuel for more info. (RTFM)

I hope you’re successful. I play it locally like that about once every three days.

Can i record my gameplay on the xbox 360 with a HDMI cable plugged from my computer and tv?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 7:17 pm

Right,

I’ve got a HDMI cable plugged from my computer into my TV, so i can use both screens for the computer if i want to watch films etc, but is it possible to use the hdmi cable to record my Xbox 360 gameplay?

you need a capture card/cable. it goes in your xbox and it comes with software usually to install on your computer, anything that outputs through your xbox comes up on your computer. and you can record.

my cable computer camcorder problem?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 7:28 am

i got a video camera and it model no. panasonic PV-GS85 and finish filming everything but the problem is that when i connect the cable to my computer it doesn’t work i took the battery pack out and connect the cable because its behind it. the cable fits the camcorder but its doesn’t seem to show up on the computer. is it meant to have power from the computer or something. or do i need a different cable such as DV or something im just trying to fix it and ask people why it doesn’t work but they say i got the right cable can u you help me please?

Ignore anyone that says you need firewire,it is only marginally faster than USB & is extremely over-rated. I dumped firewire over 5years ago because it just wasn’t worth the hassle, a mini USB cable does the job a lot more efficiently & you can get them just about anywhere, Tesco’s,Asda,etc & they are MUCH cheaper than Firewire cables & cards.When you get the cable just plug it into your cam & computer & switch on the cam in playback mode, windows will detect it and install the driver automatically, then away you go & you will be able to import your clips into the editing programme you are using, windows movie maker is already installed on your computer & though not the greatest editing software it will do the job for you.

What is the computer cable called that runs from the printer to the computer?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 8:29 am

and if need to replace this cable..how difficult to find on ebay or other? which you recommend and why? should be able to find for most printers? or what can use?

It might be a USB cable; then again, it might be an LPT (aka, parallel) cable.
Without being able to see it I don’t know.

However, in either case, you’ll be able to find one easily.

My computer turns off when I plug in the sound cable?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 7:42 am

It seems that when I listen to things on my computer using my headphones and then switch to the cable connected to my computer’s speakers, it randomly shuts off.

This can be frustrating since I’m using it for school and occasional games. It shuts off as soon as I’m done using my headphones and plug back the computer speaker cable into the comp.

Any solutions?

Sounds like there could be a short circuit. Have you tried a different set of headphones or switched to a different cable? It may be that one of these is shorting out the sound and that is somehow shutting down the computer.

It could also possibly be a virus, trojan, worm or malware. Do scans.

The cable is called an interface cable. Depending on the make and model of your printer it can be a parallel, serial or USB cable. If your printer was made within the last 7 years or so, most likely it’s a USB A-B cable.

Without knowing the exact make & model of your printer it’s hard to say which one you really need for sure. If you can let me know what you have I can make sure of what you need.

If it’s a USB A-B cable, you can find those at most any store that sells computers, printers and supplies, as well as on e-bay, Amazon, and all kinds of other places online. Parallel cables are harder to find, but should still be readily available most places.

What cable do I need to hook up my laptop with a desktop computer?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 8:43 am

The screen on our laptop is completely busted and I don’t have the money to replace it. I saw that you can connect your laptop to a desktop and download all the information to the other computer. What cable do I need to buy to do this? Also once I do plug the cable in to the desktop, what steps do I need to take to get all the files and pictures and stuff onto the other computer? Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Thank you so much ahead of time.

VGA to VGA
dvi to vga

depends on your connectors

Yes, the Ethernet cable that works on your desktop will do the same job for your laptop.

If I buy a USB/HDMI cable will I be able to play video games on my computer?

Filed under: cable on computer — admin @ 1:38 am

Hello I have a G5 Apple computer and I would like to know if I bought a USB cord with an HDMI end can I hook it up to my computer and hook the HDMI end to my Playstation will I be able to see the game and be able to play it on my computer?
Thanks for your answer recomend any stores that may sell that kind of item beside the web and please tell me what kind of items i need :)
Quick Answer: NO

Why: It requires a converter. A USB is made to input Data and an HDMI is made to output Video. You need a converter to turn the video signal leaving the PS2 into Data that can be read by the USB Port. Such devices do exist but for an OSX operating system it will most likely cost you more than a hand held Screen.
