Bayo igbekele: Wat if i format d laptop? That is the best bet to get rid of Virus. Next time ensure you are more careful with how you handle your device. And put antiVirus |

Hi gurus, my computer refuse to booth. The problem started when my battery got spoit and it. Will just shut down willi nilly even when I still have like 45% battery remaining. The problem now is it refuses to booth, when I switch it on, it shows ''startup repaire is checking your system for problems'' After some minutes, it'll show ''attempting repairs'' then it"ll go to recovery manager. Whenever I try to restore it to an earlier date, it'll reject it at a point and show error. Though this particular problem stated today. Pls I deeply need ur help as I'm loaded now that I Can't afford ro take it to an engineer. The laptop is HP630, and I just bought it brand new in February 2012 |

olempe: Hi gurus, my computer refuse to booth. if you have not replace the battery run a hp battery check. use google to find out how to it on your laptop. make sure charger is connected What's the system restore error message ? look below it, y[b]ou'd see show system restore point older than five days and try selecting other date[/b]. I'd take it the laptop is not a dual boot O/S as no other OS apart from vista or windows 7. restart laptop keep pressing f10 for bios and ru[/b]n d[b]iagnostics >hard drive test long test please dont run the short one do you have a recovery dvd ? |

Pls, how do I go about downloading an antivirus 4 my laptop? the ones I've tried to download ended up failing. Better still, can I collect an already installed antivirus frm another laptop?? How do I GO ABT IT? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by olempe(m): 8:08am On Jan 04, 2013 |
deji2009: I already did a battery chect and it confirmed that my battery is bad. The battery is so worse that it dies after about 5mins of power cut, but that's not my major concern for now. The error it shows in the restore manager is ''the disk (D has errors. And when I ''check the disk for errors'' it tells me the ''device or disk was successfully scanned'' yet it goes back to the error again. I don't have a recovery DVD. |

Hi Pls I formatted my petium 4 desktop computer using windows xp 2005n after formatting the color resolution is low, tried increasing it buh cudnt went to appearance settings and it told me dat the color resolution is "low 4bit", how do I increase cuz there's no indication to increase it. Thanks |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by deji2009(m): 8:50am On Jan 04, 2013 |
missylizzy: Hi click start, all programs, accessories, click run a box will pop up then type in devmgmt.msc press enter and you'd see lots of yellow signs. about 2 or 4. this means you need to install the drivers [/b]e.g., video/graphics drivers.[b]visit the PC manufacturer website to download all relevant drivers.make sure you type in your PC model number to get the correct drivers. installing incorrect drivers can cause problems If you PC have no name like dell ,hp, Packard bell, Phillips etc you'd need a universal driver CD to install all missing drivers. you would also need access to the internet if that's the case or you can visit the internet for drivers, it would auto scan and ask you to download the drivers. last resort is to take it to a computer shop.

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 1:43pm On Jan 04, 2013 |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by deji2009(m): 1:56pm On Jan 04, 2013 |
chindi: Go to download Microsoft security essential its works well with win xp and less likely to give you problems. your laptop is a low spec and if you're running those antivirus you mentioned you may have problems. Google Microsoft security essential and install it and make sure you check your antivirus once or twice a week to see whats happening |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Skywalker5(m): 2:01pm On Jan 04, 2013 |
chindi:Try malwarebyte in case Security essentials also fails to install. |
