Does it mean there's no alternative to solve this
there is, open windows and type windows update, then click on advanced options at the updates screen, you'll see automatic download update, toggle it off, go to pause update and toggle off

Hello computer gurus,
I came back from school after four months (I was writing waec) only to find out that when I turn on my laptop, an HP ProBook 6450b, it doesn't even show that press F12 to open start menu page, it just remains black and the caps lock light blinks.
Please is there any solution?

I use a Dell Latitude e7450 and the screen just got damaged, purple lines all over it, how much can I get a new screen?
Also the down touchpad buttons is not working, I have driven it multiple times. I think it's a hardware issue.
Gurus and Geeks in the house, what do I do?

I'm not in Lagos unfortunately, I already saw a technician and he wants to change the screen.
That's why I want to know the cost
U have any idea of the price of the screen?

Right click on the network icon in the taskbar and select 'troubleshooting'.. it will reset the wireless connection and fix any error automatically. Make sure the wireless you want to connect to is on so you can check to see if the problem is resolved once the troubleshooting is complete.

Troubleshooting will not fix any error, it will only give you a hint on where the fault could be.

It will give you hints and automatically attempt to fix the errors which in most cases solve the problem.

Will it help you to solve a hardware issue like bad wireless card or wireless cable not connected or a case where the WiFi switch is off will it turn it on for you?

Hi, my hp probook 4530s keyboard is not working properly, at times it works at other times it stops working all together could it be virus or the keyboard itself, please note that when it's about to stop working and I type h for instance the letter h is typed multiple times without my effort.
This disturbs the flow of the system

Please help.

I was thinking it's a hardware issue, but I saw some stuffs online that I tried out (press FN + F5 + Power button bla bla bla), and fortunately for me it worked and my screen came back.

I used it for a while and turned off normally, but as at this morning, I turned it on again and it's saying RTC battery is low press F2.. But seems my keyboard isn't working cos I've tried severally to press F2 but it isn't working

Well a lot of things can cause screen flickering, either software or hardware and from the way you analyse it, it looks like a hardware issue.

Display adapter driver can cause it, which is the software part and if your laptop own is a hardware fault, it will definitely come back.

For the second part of your post, your cmos battery is low, you need to replace it.

If the troubleshooter doesn't fix the problem, of course the poster will explore other means and visit a technician to check for hardware issues like the wireless card you mentioned.

You can always drop your suggestions irrespective of what others think you know. We are only trying to help in a way or the other.
