Change the charger likewise the battery also.
Concerning the network adapter I think you need to drive it.

thanks for ur response sire! how can i drive it sir? your recommendation as to d process involve.

My laptop is a HP probook 4421s.

when switched on, sometimes the screen will remain blank with lights on, on the keyboard

Other times, it comes up with a distorted screen as shown in the pics with the fan running on full speed

Even when it eventually boots into Windows, after several on & off, during use the screen can go blank or same distortion.


What could be wrong?

How much does my motherboard cost?

Haaaa

ha! ke?

I think your screen is bad.

Ok, let's start like this:
Possibilities:
1. RAM- well, ridiculous right? Chances are you've been using the PC for a very long time and occasionally when you start it the caps lock key blinks several times before the screen displays - of course it displays normal so you just passed until now. check the RAM, could just be a quick fix.

2. SIGNAL CABLE: so, the screen is not some magical stand alone device that just displays what ever you want it to. Goodness me! There's a cable that connects it to the board. And yes, you're right, constant opening and closing might cause the wires to break or get jumbled up over time. So get a technician to check the signal cable (and yes you do need a technician, don't shy away )

3. SCREEN: Aha! Here we are, so after level 1 and 2 are successfully scaled and same issue persists, then check with another screen.

4. BOARD: Arrrgh, here we go again, so if 1,2, and 3 fails, then the technician will have to check the board. Well, If it's the GPU, He's going to heat it (to seat well on the board) - if this fixes it then your laptop might work for as long as a year. And if village people refuse to allow the board work then you'll have to replace the board.

Please my Lenovo thinkpad r61 keyboard has problems, only caps lock, esc, and S keys work. Urgent solutions needed and cost.
Thanks

Yep, let's start with the bad news- power button is located right on the keyboard, so if the keyboard start going bad, it starts with 1 key at a time until it becomes 3 keys at a time, God help you if the power button gets bad too- that means you can not even use an external keyboard! What the hell do you want me to say? Damn! You can't even power the Laptop

And the classic "the keyboard is scarse" thing.
Plus it's a bit expensive :11k-12k, still need to ask though cos' this price was from 2016...you get my drift?

AND THE GOOD NEWS IS
1. The keyboard is available.
2.Just replace it and you'll be fine
3.Get it now that it's cheaper (wait! does this sound like good news )

*good luck *

Hello House! this problem started recently.. anytime that i want to watch video with vlc on my PC, there is pop up dat "application unable to start successfully"... Pls Wat could be d cause and solution!.... pic attached

Hi there, that error code signifies a critical system file error. It has something to do with the registry too.
What in the world is" system file" or "registry" (like marriage or something ? Hell no!)

Let me save you the boring techy stuff.

The only way around this is to get a clean operating system. Oh yes! This current one is corrupt.

So your movies are still intact. Just back them up in a safe place- including your other documents too.

Then format the system.

Now, after you're done formatting, in the name of whatever God you serve, install an Antivirus in your system. Let's avoid this painful experience altogether. This is because if it keeps happening and you keep reformatting then your hard disk might crash-this is even more painful!

PS- You didn't come straight to nairaland for a fix, did you. No, you googled it first right? and there were suggestions about tweaking the "registry". Well here's the truth there's 90/100 chance you're gonna get it wrong, then the OS malfunctions and you're not able to back up your files before formatting...


*good luck*

Please house, where can I get complete casing for my HP Pavilion g series Laptop? Or at least, the top and bottom carcass. I will very much appreciate a contact I can call and make my order.

Thanks.

Hello, i just got this hp laptop model 15-1387wm, i keep seeing online that its meant to have a touchscreen feature and my brother also told me he used the touchscreen feature but since i got it, nothing like that, also checked the system properties, says 'no pen or touch input' but was wondering that could be a driver issue

Drivers, Drivers, Drivers.
First, let me assume you have a good Internet connection. Well, you're going to be downloading the driver - so don't look at me like that

Second, I also would like to assume you're using the Windows version for that particular PC.

Too many assumptions already.

Internet Connected? How many bars
Windows ready? Let's get started...

Method 1

In the device manager, there's a section in the list that describes the display and touch, wherever that is, simply right click > click update driver in the drop down> select "automatically search for drivers" in the next window. Then apply a little patience while the driver is downloading. Once done restart your PC. Bingo!


In the first method, I gave the impression that the touch hard ware is present since it will appear in the device manager.

Heck! save me the tech jargon. Lets head to method 2

Method 2
At this point, if you can surf the net, then you're good.
Visit Hp site, go to support and drivers then search for your laptop and OS. A list of drivers for your particular system pops up. Now do me a favour select just what you intend to drive, then click download /install. Once done, restart your PC.

So that sounds like going on a hunt, doesn't it?
Let's try third party softwares

Method 3
Using a third party software, a list of all the components in your system are automatically listed (including the touch). If touch isn't available in your laptop, it will not be shown. We'll head over to https://drp.su/en

if you feel somehow doing all of those nerdy stuff, consult a professional

Wait a minute, touchscreen? Don't be too obsessed with it. When you finally get it working, you will only use it 2% of the entire life of the pc.
But hey! I who says you shouldn't go on an adventure?

*good luck *

My PC is having problem with charging the battery. Whenever it charges, it shows,' 0% available, plugged in,charging' and it can stay like this for years.

I have bought a new battery and even a new charger,yet I am to see any heading....

What is really the matter?!

Hello.
Sorry about that.

Your laptop is still supplying juice to the battery but the battery isn't getting it.
So, now that we've eliminated the battery and charger, next up should be the board - technician calling

Just before you head over to the technician try this:

1. Try both charger and battery on another laptop.
2. Shutdown the laptop and allow it charge. Leave for about 30 min and see if it increases.

*good luck *

Thanks for your swift response. It's G4.

How can i deal with my Compaq System Unit... That Is Re-Starting Over and Over again?... Even when i want To Format it, Its Not Still Working..

Hi @cyberprof, this situation can be heart rending but take a chill pill and let's look at possible situations.

Situation 1
Laptop gets to the Hp logo then restarts.

Situation 2
Laptop starts, gets past the Hp logo, window logo appears > blue screen shows in a flash and the laptop restarts again.

Situation 3
Laptop loads fully to desktop, you start using it normally then after some time it shuts down.

Which is your own situation?

PatrickOkunima:
Thanks for your swift response. It's G4.

You're welcome.
The brand new is N10,000
I'll get back to you tomorrow on price for the used.
Thanks.

I will call you shortly.

Not just those two, if you use win 7, the camera software will eventually give same error!

So, where to back up your files- You can back up your files in an external storage device like a flash drive. It depends on the size of the files. If they are really large you will need an external hard drive.

*cheers*
