If you need a remote controlled key logger software for PC or mobile phone, send an email to sales@hotlemsecurityshop.com with your specific needs. A custom keylogger that will bypass any anti-virus can be yours at a fair price.

what was your reason for formatting the drive? and did you change anything?
Also what was the previous operating system on the computer? and how old is the computer? how much memory do you have on it? because i had not seen this issue before but after reading a bit online i read that your BIOS might be outdated meaning you would need to flash your BIOS with the latest version that goes to your computer' make and model.

The question about memory is important because im assuming you are trying to install windows 7 and if your computer doesn't meet the basic hardware requirements it might not install.

The CD or DVD you are using is probably bad. Just try to use another one to do the installation.

.Let it restart pressing F8 key
.you'd see windows advance boot option
.select disable automatic restart on system failure
.let it restart again or do it manually
.Any blue screen error message for example 0x0000

Instructions


If no blue screen restart again f8 select
last known good configuration press enter
and see what happens

If still no joy or no blue screen or any progress
make sure charger is plug in so we can find out if
this a hardware or software problem

restart pressing f2 or delete for bios setup
when in bios leave it there for an hour and see if the
laptop would restart, if doesn't is a software problem
if does restart in Bios is a hardware problem i.e.
overheating fan cpu or defective memory.

Last resort is to reinstall windows but not at this
stage until we're fully satisfy

so its a password issue well I actually did research for you and found that searching for "NTPASSWD" in google will take you to a site that has a free software that can help you.

by the way did you type in administrator as the user name and hit enter to see if it would let you in? Or even just you "password" as the password?

also why did your "friend" change your PW? Does he have s standard list of passwords he uses because formatting should be your last resort after trying different things.

67 WINDOWS 7 HIDDEN TIPS & TRICKS
1. Problem Steps Recorder
As the local PC guru you're probably very used to friends and family asking for help with their computer problems, yet having no idea how to clearly describe what's going on. It's frustrating, but Microsoft feels your pain, and Windows 7 will include an excellent new solution in the Problem Steps Recorder.
When any app starts misbehaving under Windows 7 then all your friends need do is click Start, type PSR and press Enter, then click Start Record. If they then work through whatever they're doing then the Problem Steps Recorder will record every click and keypress, take screen grabs, and package everything up into a single zipped MHTML file when they're finished, ready for emailing to you. It's quick, easy and effective, and will save you hours of troubleshooting time.
2. Burn images
Windows 7 finally introduces a feature that other operating systems have had for years - the ability to burn ISO images to CDs or DVDs. And it couldn't be much easier to use. Just double-click the ISO image, choose the drive with the blank disc, click Burn and watch as your disc is created.
3. Create and mount VHD files
Microsoft's Virtual PC creates its virtual machine hard drives in VHD files, and Windows 7 can now mount these directly so you can access them in the host system. Click Start, type diskmgmt.msc and press Enter, then click Action > Attach VHD and choose the file you'd like to mount. It will then appear as a virtual drive in Explorer and can be accessed, copied or written just like any other drive.
Click Action > Create VHD and you can now create a new virtual drive of your own (right-click it, select Initialise Disk, and after it's set up right-click the unallocated space and select New Simple Volume to set this up). Again, you'll be left with a virtual drive that behaves just like any other, where you can drag and drop files, install programs, test partitioning software or do whatever you like. But it's actually just this VHD file on your real hard drive which you can easily back up or share with others. Right-click the disk (that's the left-hand label that says "Disk 2" or whatever) and select Detach VHD to remove it.
The command line DISKPART utility has also been upgraded with tools to detach a VHD file, and an EXPAND command to increase a virtual disk's maximum size. Don't play around with this unless you know what you're doing, though - it's all too easy to trash .......................................... to read more visit http://computerseed..com/2012/03/67-windows-7-hidden-tips-tricks.html

Habidab: My HPDV6000 motherboard is faulty.can i use INTEL to replace AMD board please how much can i buy intel motherboard
you can but you have to find a board that would fit the case that came with your laptop and you will also have to get an intel processor. so you might as well just get another AMD board or buy a new computer

Hello Nairalanders,
I just bought a Wifi laptop with Windows CE 6.0 Operating System.
It cannot accept any of the 3G Modem for MTN, Etimama,Glo or even
Zain for internet connection.
The drive don't even appear when I go to "My Computer".

Has anyone used such OS before or can anyone help me on a way to connect
to the internet.

I will appreciate your help.
