Hello, please I need your help.
After I finish installing mtn f@stlink on my pc(windows 8.0 ), I noticed that each time I plug in my modem and its connected, Immediately am about to open a browser then this statement keep popping up;
"Your pc ran into a problem and needs to restart. We're just collecting some error info, and then we will restart for you." Its blue in color.
It started since saturday and I have waited for it to restart itself but to no avail. I have switched it off, removed d battery and den it started to work again .
But note: I still can't browse with my pc cos the same stuff keeps popping up each time I try to connect.
I will be grateful if this issue can be resolved. God bless you.

hi, the modem driver is probably not compatible with the windows 8 OS, the blue screen appears anytime an incompatible driver is being installed. Try uninstalling it then reinstall d mtn fastlink in windows 7 compatible mode.

These are my recommendations.

.Ensure that your Mtn is compatible with windows 8

. Have you saw this error message before ?

. If not, restore your computer using system restore.

Google system restore and follow the instructions.

Select a date before the problem started and restore it to
an earlier time. If you are still receiving the same error message,
restart the computer and keep pressing f8 until you see advance option then
select disable automatic restart on system failure.

It would restart so write down the error message and give it to us.

Should be white or orange. Does it work by mouse ? What colour is the light ? How do you activate the touchpad, i.e by fn and f8 keys? There should be a small button at the top of the touchpad. Is there ?

House please I need a urgent solution right now. I formatted my laptop, in the process of installing window 7, it got to the stage " setup is preparing your computer on first use" and a display window could not complete installation due to unexpected error. Further got a stage where I was asked for username and password , each time I input the username and password, all I get is incorrect password or username.. I need to know what to do because have tried the process for so many times.

Dear deplsucell,

Tolzeal advice you to knock out Norton, I'm not so sure
if Norton is the current anti virus or not.


Here are my recommendations

-Use google to research add or remove programs
in control panel. Look on the list of programs
and let us know the type of antivirus you have.

I think your laptop came with a trial version that's
now asking you for another one. Open the current anti virus
and let us know the status, i,e. risk or X/red sign.

If you have norton installed, you'd need a norton removal tool.

You'd need to scan your computer for virus. Alternative you
could use malwarebytes
