Ethernet cords are the same for any computer. They are also known as RJ45 cords. You can get one at any wal mart or office supply store for under $10. If you don't have an ethernet port, then you need more help that a cord. You will need a ethernet card.
2 :
Just go to any Computer supply and ask for an RJ45 cable... If you are connected to a switched, hub or modem, buy a... RJ45 straight through.... If you will connect it to a PC, server, or a Router, buy a... RJ45 crossover.... I suggest, buy two types... Don't forget to label it.... Have a nice LAN/WAN experience...

ask mum or dad . your uncle maybe put the timer on so you dont sit up all night on it.

Ask your uncle to take it off, unless you're trying to be slick. It is probably done from a website so every time you are on the internet, the clock is running

Can I charge my ACER laptop with an USB charger connection?

Can I charge my ACER laptop with an USB charger connection?
The place where you insert the charger into the back of my ACER laptop is not working. The cord some how pushed the piece in. I want to know if it is possible for me to charge the laptop through one of the USB ports.

No. USB cannot handle the amount of power needed to run a laptop and does not have the functionality to do so. The reason the AC jack is broken is not because it was pushed in, but because you used it with the AC plugged into the computer and was not careful. People do not realize how fragile the connection is, it is just a piece of plastic. So likely someone tripped over the cord while it was plugged in, or moved it while the cord was plugged in and bumped it or simply put pressure on it while it was plugged in. The bottom line is you will have to pay to have someone resolder the AC connection to the motherboard and repair the jack. This is not cheap, nor is it permanent because the replacement is not done with original parts. Expect to pay ~$150-300 for repair, as the technician will likely have to completely disassemble the laptop to get to the jack.

The d drive is your recovery partiton, so no you cannot back it up there. That d drive is for your to create your recovery cds for your computer and for you to also format and reinstall windows.

You usually must burn that back-up image to disc. You can postpone doing it, just don't wait too long. Go buy some blank DVDs, you'll be glad you did - I see people whose butts are saved every day by their recovery discs! Best of luck!

Don't do it unless it is exactly the same voltage and wattage as the Acer. The voltage and wattage are on the label of the power adapter.
2 :
Laptops use DC power adapters. Each laptop requires a specific adapter that outputs a particular Voltage and Amperage, this information can be found on the adapter. As long as these two numbers match for the Output side of the adapter, and the plugs are exactly the same, then you should be ok, otherwise using it could kill your laptop.
3 :
if you are talking about just cord and not the entire charger (cord and adapter) then its fine. if you want to use entire charger, then i dont think it will be possible. the volt requirement will be different and even the connector connecting the laptop and charger may be different..
4 :
Yes a very good chance you will kill your Acer unless it is an exact match which is highly unlikely.
