Engineers in the house...I have a gateway laptop model number NV57H50u but last week,i was angry someone powered it while i was away and was watching movies on it so i put a password in annoyance and forgot the password...The issue now is that a friend of mine has formatted the system and i am able to use it again but the button which i use to lower the screen brightness does not work again(CTRL Low brightness and high brightness) short cut does not work and after going to control panel and power options?the slider to reduce screen brightness is no more there...The guy who helped me to format it used a acer disk to install the windows and on the desktop background is acer and my laptop is gateway..

PLEASE HOW CAN I CORRECT THIS AS I HAVE GONE TO GATEWAY SITE AND THE DRIVERS FOR THIS LAPTOP IS NO MORE THERE AND THE BATTERY LIFE NOW JUST MANAGES TO LAST 2 HOURS INSTEAD OF 4-4HOURS 40 MINUTES.

try to find a usb keyboard. Plug it in, and enter your password. This must be a keyboard problem.

Okies... Now let try this simple thingy . Im suspecting the Graphics Driver.

Try disabling, Play a Video (Quit) and enable it back.

if that doesn't work.. Check for upgrade on your Brand portal.

that would fix it

Still doesn't work. This my system needs deliverance

the hard disk is damaged considering the fact that you tried it on another pc. You can try another hard drive on your laptop to double check the aforementioned to surely ascertain that your motherboard is intact.

have you tried the effectiveness when in bios? Try to get it into safe mode to know whether it works.

have you tried the new adapter on a similar laptop? Besides, is the new adapter's power rating the same with the old one's? Your battery might be in question too.
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by peababa(m): 3:08pm On Mar 26, 2015
Yes the adapter has same rating and working with another laptop of same model. It charge for 30sec if the laptop is powered on and would show the charging light if it was shut down but wouldn't charge the battery at all no matter how long it was there for.

Hello all. I do get update to 8.1 for free fication on my laptop. If I do the update will it fix missing drivers on my laptop? Secondly how do I hide DATA APP on my laptop? My bro somehow pressed something and the folder just appeared.

windows releases driver updates for sure. However, if you feel your drivers aren't up to date, you can always check the manufacturer's website. For the data app, i can't understand the message.

try to use the other laptop's adapter to charge. I suspect the battery, adapter, and your motherboard's charging circuit (some capacitors might be burnt) in that particular order.

Thanks a lot. For the APP DATA, some1 used my phone on his laptop and it changed everything in my phone and memory card into folders and I can't open my pic from galaxy. When my bro tried helping me retreive my data, I think he went to Control Panel>File options... I don others, but since then I have this faint file with d name. APP DATA on my Drive C whre you have Desktop, Favorites, My documents.... How to I hide this file?

I am sorry we cannot provide windows keys, it is against the rules.
Please try and understand the rationale Behind this. cheers

[quote author=kingsley989 post=32030420][/quote] i still can't get you. Did you mean someone used your phone on his personal laptop by connecting via usb and now you can't view folders on your phone's file manager?? If so, then a virus have been successful in hiding your files to the extent that even if you tick the 'show hidden files and folders' in the folder options, it won't show anything but when you go to computer, it shows the usage and you become perplexed?
OR
You want to hide hidden files as it is now showing as a fainted icon on your system? Please clarify.

Yes. On the process of unhidding the file (folders) on my phone using my laptop, I now noticed a faint file named APP DATA on my laptop (I have never seen it before) when I try to delete it says "files in it are in use". What should I do now?
