  1. Sync issues from laptop to new desktop


    I am having trouble trying to sync everything from my laptop to my new desktop and I'm not sure why or how to fix it. When I go to'sync your settings' on my laptop all the toggles are locked and there's this odd error message at the top that says "Sync is unavailable for your account. Contact the system administrator to resolve this." I am the system administrator and I'm the only user on this laptop, so I don't understand. I signed into my Microsoft account just fine on my desktop, it displays the same information, it doesn't have that odd error message and all of the sync options are able to be toggled. I know I have a similar issue with my Microsoft account on my parent's computer not syncing my settings, but I never really paid it much attention before now since I rarely ever used that computer. I'm not sure what to do to fix this issue.

    :)

    Buying a new laptop or desktop for gaming [help]

    I want to buy either a new laptop or a new desktop for gaming. I want to run games smoothly and maybe even use it for some ps2 emulation. Could someone suggest either a laptop or desktop? I heard Alienware is expensive and over-rated. I was also told Sager laptops are good for gaming. I have about $1000-$1500 to spend on a new machine. Initially I was going to get a laptop but it seems like I would be able to get a more powerful desktop for the same price or less. Please advise. Please suggest a model/brand [desktop/laptop] that I could purchase because I don't think I know enough about computers to build one from scratch.

    Laptop or Desktop for Music production?

    My brother's BIL is into music composition and audition etc. He is looking to buy a new system (or build one). He was asking me if a Laptop will suffice for recording his compositions with good quality audio and video. He was looking to buy a i5 or i7 based Quad core + dedicated graphics powered laptop (with 8GB ram + 500GB Hdd). I suggested to build a Desktop powered with i5/i7 + dedicated grarphics and buy a real good $100 sound card and good headset. May be go little cheaper and build a AMD Quad/Hex based desktop.

    Is a Laptop good enough or desktop is better?

    If laptop suggest me few good ones. Looking for a mid-range priced ones (about $800).
