Your system is over affected ! Just back up ur data and do a clean installation
more to this.....scan the backed up data from a clean system with a strong antivirus(along with all the removable devices u may have used on the system) else the infection would be restored when u transfer ur files back to the system..
method 2:remove ur hard drive and scan it as a removable from a clean system
method 3..prepare a rescue live cd on a clean system that contain up-to-date updates from a strong "licensed"(not all those free craps u install)antivirus...then boot ur system with it at startup

Try to downgrade the settings to USB 2.0 in BIOS. This should make it stable and not sound as if youre plugging and unplugging the usb at the same time. This is an issue with my Hp 15 d000sia notebook too, and i believe virtually all of its kind have this USB problem. The best is for you to get another model as the laptop can cause headache. It selects USB cables too.

Mine started with this, then to SMART failure, kept working for a couple of months and then it gives BSOD at the slighest knock, low sound (this eventually stopped after swapping a HDD with Win7 cos it came with Win8 hence a driver problem. It became sooo loud then), HDD eventually fried, and battery followed. Now im left with a choice to change the battery and HDD. Phew! Thank God as an engineer i have the know-how that kept it running for a year. Its clean, slim, nice battery life but with flaws.
#Goodluck.

I have spoken!

Good morning, please I tried turning on my dell6400, but it won't boot and the screen remains blank. The caplock light just blinks a few times and the laptop switches off.

Google tune up utilities full version. Then install after downloading. Use the undelete feature to scan and restore the deleted files.

go for a universal modem. No need to unlock. However, it is worthy of note that some universal modems get spoilt easily and can't withstand heavy usage hence misbehaves. In lieu of this, go for mtn or glo modem made by Huawei. I repeat, HUAWEI, not haier or any other for those can be easily unlocked. Good luck.

boot your system into safe mode and lets see if all functions work perfectly, if so, restore your pc and scan it with a good antivirus even if it worked after system restore. If no joy, then go to device manager and check if a yellow question mark is on any of the devices and get back to me.

i want to share my office LAN network with other devices but my desktop does not have a WIFI adapter in it, how can i set it up and is there a software i can install in the system to that effect. it's an HP compaq monitor....thanks

I am pretty sure your inhouse IT will kick against this. and if he knws about the below software, he will know whats up. Incase he doesnt know, good for you.

Download 'Connectify Me'

Free trial at first. if you need a full version, search for the crack.

Please note that crack software is not advised and might flag as virus infected.
