xxgig: For some months now, i have noticed that when i am using my system (compaq presario CQ57), i see a flash of a program icon on the taskbar trying to load, it happens so fast that i have not been able to see properly what program is trying to load. each time this happens, every application i am running on full screen becomes minimized. please what should i do?

that means there is an unwanted program on ur system, ok go to start type run in the search column then type msconfig & hit ur enter key after that a dialog box will come up locate the startup what u do now under d startup column uncheck d unwanted startup programs after that apply & restart ur system to confirm if it still comes up... Note: If You Can't Please Lets Know

numericalguy: Hi computer engineers,

I'm using an Acer 32-bit laptop with the following configuration.
RAM - 1GB
Processor - 1.6GHz dual CPU (intel)
Operating system - Windows 7 Ultimate

The laptop has been slowing down of late and sometimes freezes up for like a minute which can be frustrating. I have a good anti virus and I have formatted the laptop several times but the problem still persist.

I'm currently thinking of upgrading the RAM to 3GB or 4G but I don't know if that would solve the problem.

fabolakers: Need Help with Display Problem in my Laptop (HP G60-230US)

My battery was completely dead so my Laptop was like a normal TV. When Light goes off, it goes off automatically. When there is Light and I turn it on, what I normally get is Checksum Error page telling me to press F1 to load COSMOS default value and when I do that, the system will load normally but my date and time will reset back to 2001 so I will have to reset it any time I put on my Laptop.

I decided to change the battery and everything was Good until 2 days later I started getting completely blank screen whenever I turn on the Laptop. The Power button and the WiFi button will come on but the screen will not power On. Just completely dark. So I'll have to leave it like that for about an hour, then hold the power button for it to shut down then when I on it again before it will be able to display normally.

When I on it sometimes for the first time, it will jus show the power light and off immediately and at times it will just be blinking.

I thought maybe the battery that I bought was bad but I got the same result when I decided to power it on without the battery.

So Experts in the house, if you understand what the problem is, please help. I'm thinking maybe it the BIOS battery but I wnt to be sure before changing it.

souljaboi51: hi there, great job u doin.

please i have a compaq presario cq 57 with 4gb ram and 500gb hdd, windows 7. i bought it new last year january.
i noticed that of late, it is quite slow especially when i turn it on. it could take 7-10 mins to boot after putting the password. i still have 257gb or memory left. games like fm 2013 and need for speed which i have had since last year. i really dont know why it is very slow. any idea what is causing it cos i knw the hard drive isnt over loaded as i still have a lot of memory.
thanks.

factorial1: Evening, please... what could be the problem? whenever I press shift + 2, instead of it to bring #... it will display " and vice versa... I've tried ti change the system language to solve the problem.... but I could only see only one language available there. Anyobe with a solution to this should please proffer one. Thanks

all4naija: What is the Acer model?

numericalguy:


Its an Acer ASPIRE 4720Z
32-bit laptop
RAM - 1GB
Processor - 1.6GHz dual CPU (intel)
It originally came with windows vista but I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate
There is no appreciable speed drop when starting up
Its always connected to the internet via wireless from 9am to 9pm (which are my active time)
It also slows down or freezes up when I'm not on the internet
it freezes more frequently when I'm watching a movie.
I sometimes will have to restart the laptop before I can continue with whatever I was doing
Even when I have several applications running at the same time, switching between applications can me slow at times
I had a look at the RAM meter and it was above 90% when it froze

LordReed:

You are using to little RAM. Win7 minimum is 2GB. If you can upgrade your RAM to 3GB.

all4naija: There are three things you would have to do in getting it back with appreciable speed.

1) Upgrading the RAM not more than 2 GB

2) Download malwarebytes, install it and scan your system for malware.

3) Get another hard disk if it is still having the same problem. It is clear there are bad sectors on your HDD. I would choose this third option if I were you.

numericalguy:

Thanks.

But one of the reasons I formated the laptop (three times) was to clean it for viruses and malwares.

numericalguy:

Thanks, I thought as much.

There are two sticks of 500MB in each RAM slot in my laptop.
I'm thinking of getting two of 2GB to make it 4GB
or do you think I can get two 1.5GB RAMs to make 3GB (I dont know if 1.5GB exist).
How can I tell a genuine RAM from a fake and do you have any idea how much it can cost me.
Also can I sell off the old ones or make a bargain to get the new ones.

I need to arm myself with all these info. before i go and buy.
thanks

all4naija:
Go for the third option. It is clear that is major cause.

LordReed:

For a 32bit system 4GB will be a waste because the system will only make use of 3GB unless of course you upgrade the OS to 64bit at the same time.

I don't know the current prices for RAM modules in Nigeria but 2GB should be between 5-6k.

numericalguy: @ all4naija and LordReed,

I can only go for one of the advices you guys have given.
Should I get the hard disc or RAM upgrade.


Thanks to you guys and one love.

LordReed:

I don't think a HDD fail is eminent, you can do a checkdisc for bad sectors. I would advise you to buy the RAM, its cheaper and will have more immediate effect on overall system performance.
