It's not displaying and he said it's the VGA and he needs to drive it? How do you drive something that is not displaying?

Anyway, you can go ahead and give it to him, since he said it's the VGA, unless he wants to heat the VGA and BTW what's the model of your laptop?

The icon shows that it's plugged in, but the battery is still flat and when power seizes it will automatically shutdown.
The charging indicator shows a white light that means a full battery... Please help me!

Take it to a laptop engineer for diagnosis.

What's the model?

Hello winzy.

I'd like you to first, stop using your laptop this way! Sudden power cuts can damage your hard drive (90% chance) or corrupt the OS.

Most likely the battery is gone. The White light is a general indication that a charger has been plugged in.

However, the only way to be sure is trying another battery on it. If the issue persists, then the problem is from the MOBO.

So, let's be sure.

I have a couple Pavilion 15 batteries you can lay your hands in and try them on your PC. Alternatively, you can try out in a shop that sells laptop batteries.

*Cheers.*

I'm on WhatsApp: 08128714767

Did you recently update or install a new driver?

Anyway just do any of this.

1. Do a system restore to the previous date it was working fine.

2. Reinstall the operating system.

Hello.
This could either be screen gone bad or a signal cable issue.

See a tech for a fix (replacement actually)

How much will it cost to fix, in either scenario?
Laptop's a Dell vostro 2521 model

There are two series of 2125.

The first one is looking a bit bulky and uses a regular led display. Cost to fix is 17k

The second one is looking kinda slimmer and uses a slim diaplay (AKA Paper screen). Cost to fix is 18k

Although, those quotes are for brand new screens. You save a few thousand bucks if you opt for used. And if you're able to fix your self? Voila!! Extra savings again.

*Cheers*


Signal cables aren't expensive. From 5k up.
Need to know what yours look like.

Hello. Install the wireless device driver.

please how can i do that?
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Razak5(m): 9:01pm On Aug 06, 2018
Kings1930:

well, First if you don't have the driver in the form of a file stored in a flash drive or disk you'll need the internet.

Second, since you don't have the Wi-Fi to access the internet via wireless hotspot, you'll need a modem.

If you don't have a modem, you'll need to use the USB tethering feature of your android phone.

OK, so now that you're connected to the internet, update the wireless drivers of your laptop using any of the 2 methods below.

Method 1
On the desktop,right click on my computer , this takes you to the system properties. In the system properties window, click on the device manager in the list of options to the left of the window (located towards the top left corner)

Once in device manager, right click on the network adapter ,in the drop down, right click on the network controller > "automatically search for drivers". Your W-Fi driver(s) will be automatically installed.

[b]Method 2

Visit the manufacturers site of your laptop. If you use hp, that's hp.com.
Once on the website, you should look for their "drivers and support" pages wherein you'll be asked to provide your laptop model name or Serial number. After you must have clicked OK, a list of all the drivers for you device will be rolled out- you are looking for the wireless drivers. once spotted, download and install.

hope this helps.


*Cheers*

Good afternoon everyone

Please I would appreciate your help on the issue with my laptop. I noticed that it was rebooting at random while I was using it sometime late last month but it became worst this month, if I want to start the laptop, it keeps restarting itself, like the light would come up for 1 sec and keep restarting like that.

It boots up sometimes and I will be able to use it for a while but it will start restarting later on. I did the memory and hard drive test in the BIOS and it passed both tests. My laptop is Hp g1 840 and it's running on Windows 10.

Your help will really be appreciate in solving the problem.

Thanks.
