.Are u sure it drivers or missing dll files.... Please confirm the error you getting and make a post again...
Alright, when i want to play my game of 'hearts' here's the first feedback: hardware acceleration is either disabled or not supported by your video card driver, which could slow game performance. Make sure you have the latest video card driver installed and that hardware acceleration is turned on. So, there it is sir.

Few questions

What operating system?
What drivers are you missing? (go to device manager and list all the drivers with a yellow notification)

And why is the "techie" not fixing this issue he probably caused?
OS is Windows 7, though we made a failed attempt at stepping up to Windows 8. Network Controller is the only thing here with the yellow notification. As for the techie, i could only spare him 7 hours of unsuccessful attempts before i left town for an assignment.

Please Help....

I use Dell inspiron 5520... Core i5... windows 7...

My system is on the verge of crashing.... I uninstalled my anti virus two months ago due to I found out it wasn't too efficient....
I had been careful about downloading, flash drives and other sources of virus,.... pending when I get a new anti virus,..

last week... after charging a techno phone with my laptop,.... I realised its booting process became slow.... Then... Programs started hanging....

I decided to get a Kaspersky 2015 antivirus.... While installing... it kept asking me to reboot.... I decided to do defragmention.... Which was cancelling itself..... also... I tried d "Clean up option".... It's also hanging,.... I tried installing Registry Repair software.... Found 442 errors but wiped only 25 of them.... I uninstalled that.... I tried Kavremover but not responding..... I also freed my Harddisk memory of over 200Gig....

Yet, the system is still hanging and very very slow.....

I am running out of ideas.... I don't want to format the whole thing....

Any advice?

Having issue with shortcut virus and some other. Viruses on my system. Thinking for formatting already. What's the best antivirus to get for my system. Want to startup with a new antivirus after formatting.

Well it helps now that you gave us the exact error you are getting...
This is not really a driver issue...rather a settings issue...

Right click on your desktop and click on screen resolution
look at lower right corner and click on Advanced settings
Go to the troubleshooting tab and click on Change Settings
Now make sure the Hardware acceleration slider is moved to enable.
Dont forget to click OK....you may be asked to restart...if not...just restart and try playing your game.

As far as you network controller....you may need to get that driver installed if you are thinking of using internet....you may need both the wireless and wired driver.

I'm sorry but at this point in your PC life....reformatting is the best thing to do at this point.

Now....there is a way to successfully do this thing without losing all your files. It requires a little patient but its efficient. You need to first shrink your hard drive and secure a enough space to save all your personal files in there.

Then when you reformat to install windows...make sure you dont touch the drive you saved your files into. once you login after installation of windows....you should be able to access all your personal files.

Now the key thing here is that you need to make sure none of those personal files are infected with any virus.

Wow....it looks like this is then going to be a display driver issue. Not sure what that techie did....but you may need to make sure your display driver is updated correctly.

If that port is not recognizing any usb device...make sure to try another known good usb device on that port...if the same issue exists...then you really do have a bad port....if its really a big problem for you (from what you said...it sounds you have other ports working as well) then your motherboard needs to be changed.

usually the usb ports are attached to the motherboard

I totally agree...and i wouldnt bother myself with it if you have other ports that are working. I, myself have the same issue...one of my usb ports damaged while i was changing out a motherboard on my laptop....but im fine with that.
