^^^ as per computer model, it should have a sticker that shows the model now. your info isn't comprehensive enough, apart from that PXE thingy that you posted, there should be another error now. . .the PXE-something comes before you get to the menu were u can select safe mode and all the PXE error simply means that your computer is trying to but from a network connection and isn't finding one, thats not enough reason for your computer not to startup as the computer should automatically try other media. . .can you run through what happens for us?start from when you switch on your computer |

hello deji and all tech out there i just came across a problem that is giving me tough times here my hp compaq 6735s notebook (energy star) laptop is giving me problem the issue is i am trying to determine if it is a hardware problem or software or firmware issue the problem started when i interconnected a big pin connector cable to a small pin connector ac adapter. when i inserted into my laptop it made a click sound and i quickly removed it. i then bought its original adapter to charge it but it refused to charge either the battery or power on with only ac adapter however when i used another battery of same model, the laptop will power on but when i try to plug in a working adapter a bluish LED light around the power jack will flash eight times but refuse to charge. i can operate the laptop on battery power untill around 25% of battery power and then it will shut down. and start blinking indicating low battery status, N:B the power jack will not flash eight times if a battery is not inserted to the laptop, i am suspecting the power jack is faulty and cannot send power to the laptop but i need your expertise on this one, thanks very much. |

nellaluv: Dear Sir/Madam What's the make and model of your computer, e.g. HP SR5530. As we're unable to determine machine type here's your diagnostics. Check no disk in CD/DVD drive, disconnect everything attached to computer such as usb, Ethernet cable and have a normal PC no device attach Turn on PC and keep pressing F1 or F10 until you get to Bios Setup utility At the top should be Main, Security, Configurations, Advanced and Exit. Not sure if you have diagnostics, if you do use your arrow to highlight and press enter for primary hard disk self test. do this and we takt it from there. Good luck

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by netotse(m): 2:04am On Aug 25, 2010 |
@nellaluv you're seeing the PXE thingy cos you're pressing F12(that's for network boot), the blue screen of death is an entirely different thing. can you see the message displayed on the blue screen?(this is important) does your computer start in safe mode? |

My system's nokia pc suite does not show any connection mode whenever i want to add a new phone as modern. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several times but it's still the same. And i notice that the pc suite takes much time to load each operation. What do i do? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by nellaluv(f): 9:15am On Aug 25, 2010 |
netotse: No i can't see the message displayed on the blue screen, it just flash for a second and continue start-up from the beginning, it always stops at the safe mode, start windows normally screen. When i choose safe mode some command would show but i can't choose anything, it still continues from the beginning and still ends up on the safe mode, start windows normally screen with the count-down. |

Nella,does it give you an option to pick 'Last known good configuration'? If you pick this option,it will roll it back to the day the computer was in perfect condition. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 2:10pm On Aug 25, 2010 |
deji2009:thanks for your reply @deji i have already done that and it says i should replace my battery, i used another battery of the same model in perfect condition to try it out, it booted fine no problem the problem is that the laptop simply refuse to detect ac power, and it will flash eight times around the power jack when the ac adapter connector is plugged into it and this only happens when thee laptop is on, meaning when the laptop is of or when you take out the battery the laptop is totally unresponsive to a power i have ran all tests i am suspecting that the power jack is bad, but i just need second opinion if u have noticed a problem of this sort since the power jack is soldered directly onto the system board of the laptop i am a bit skeptical taking it to a local technician, or weather to contact hp service centre in lagos since i am not too good in hardware repair myself, |

nellaluv: Uve got a corrupted OS. Dyu have a recovery CD OR Installation CD ?? If YES, insert into CD ROM and restart the system. Now the plan is to boot from CD. If u dnt knw aw to already, follow the steps here -> http://techpaul./2007/08/03/how-to-boot-from-a-cd/ After successfully booting, Windows will start the installation process. [Quote author=yoni5002 ]It will give you the option to use RECOVERY CONSOLE do NOT use that one, Press Enter to Continue the process like if you were installing Windows for the Fist time. Now Windows will look for Windows Installation already done in your System. HERE IS WHEN YOU NEED TO BE ALERT, Windows will find your C: Windows installation and will give you the option to repair by pressing ( R ) Now is when you need to press the ( R ), Windows will copy the files and everything as It would be doing a new install and will reboot your computer, Do not start from the CD again, Let Windows XP installation to run and it will repair your Windows without loosing any data, Alert if the REPAIR OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE DO A NEW INSTALLATION WITHOUT FORMATING THE HARD DRIVE, SO YOU CAN GET YOUR DATA AND CLEAN YOUR SYSTEM AFTER THAT, [/quote] Hope this helps. |
