USB 1.1 USB 2.0 and will be USB 3.0

I have cable broadband and I want to play video games online. Do I need wireless internet to do this? Or will a wireless router work with cable broadband? Also what brand of router do you recommend I buy for playing games with playstation, nintendo wii and Xbox?

I have a canon digital camera with his usb cable and a playstation 3 with his usb cable. I want to leave the usb cable from the playstation at home and only bring the canon’s cable for both the digital camera and the ps3 controller. Does it make a different or should I bring the ps3’s usb cable?

This is kind of complicated…

…I am trying to upload pictures from my digital camera onto my computer at work. I am listed as an admin on the computer so it is not a question of the proper permissions. When I hook up the computer via USB cord and turn it on, I get a pop-up recognizing the camera. A few seconds later, an “Upgrade Device Driver Wizard” application pops up. That is about as far as I can get. I don’t really know what this is or what to click on through each of the steps, but no matter what I do I can’t manage to get it to work. Since I work for a computer/data storage company, I know that there are many other factors which would play a part in uploading these pictures, so if you need to email me for more information, please feel free.

Question Details:how do these things work

is it just a usb and you can pick up tv

or do you actually have to hook your cable tv in to something like a box that transmits to the puter?

can regular cable be watched on pc or does it have to be high def

what is the price range for something like this?

do you need any new hardware to get one of these things set up

I just got a micro sd card for my Motorola V360. I wanted to transfer some files from my computer to my phone. I put it in my phone and then connected it to my computer via USB. Then I went to My Computer and found it under Devices with Removable Storage. It was titled Removable Disk (F:). I double clicked on it and up popped a window that said “The disk in drive F is not foramatted. Do you want to format it now?” so I clicked Yes. Then it said “The disk in drive F cannot be formatted.” Then it didn’t do anything.
Am I doing something wrong? Or is there something wrong with my computer/phone?
