@Omega25red, 
I can't send mails with  a document attached. Each time i try to do so,i get a response that my system has a proxy or firewall problem. How can i address this problem? 
so from what you wrote seems like the setting of your browser had been changed you can try this:

Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced
When in the Advanced tab, do these two things
1) Click "Restore Advanced Settings"
and then
2) Click Reset (and OK to all the message warnings)
'
you should be able to upload e-mail attachments on g-mail with Firefox, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. Assuming you are using gmail

i dont know anything about MTN but 150mb is not much at all. Question do you usually leave your computer on? without being on the internet? because you might need to check the settings to make sure it doesn't just stay connected even when you are not using the internet. Also you said you dont have anti virus on your computer but have you checked the list of installed programs on your computer? because these computer companies always install either norton or macafee which are resource pigs.

formating doesnt make pc run faster as long you are going to put in the same size of data that was before

you need to do defrag and do a disk cleanup

also check if there programs that run behind the scene especially the one pinned to start up

never open your computer to clean it you will damage more things than you should if you dont know what you are up to. As far a video play back you should try installing these two different media players because they play almost any type of media files

1. VLC media player
2. Relayplayer

try these two maybe it might work. Also make sure what you are playing is an actual video file and not just an audio file.

OK try going into safe mode and see if you can see anything, if you can, then go to device manager, then look for display on the list.

right click and click on properties. delete the display driver and then restart your system, now if you are unable to see anything even after

booting into safe mode, then it is a hardware issue,

thats going in circles

just go straight to your manufacturer web site and download it from there

in most manufacturer you find drivers under support --- then drivers all you need to know is the model and the series within your model

on some you even find a software that you install and it tells you your model and series

My apologizes, I guess while typing that response, i was thinking that maybe he wouldnt knw the correct model for his computer

or maybe his computer was assembled or maybe just maybe his computer no longer has support from the OEMs. Nasty OEMs like

dell, sony and hp have that kind of issue,

Zim, moonraker is right - all those software are life savers. I use driver genius and it has helped greatly when I couldn't resolve some driver issues.

Hi All,
Help my Toshiba laptop with Windows vista , boot up and then goes to a blacked out screen with only the mouse pointer visible.

just before the problem I had been changing the power management settings, so i do not know if the problem are some how related

Any ideas?

I have tried starting in safe mode
