onyekabe: I willBe grateful to get help on how to fix this problem

Since you did not mentioned your laptop make and model i.e.,
dell 1545 windows vista. go to google and find out how to
change your file extension on your laptop. for example if
your .doc file is been opned by windows media player
change it from.wma .mp4 .mp3 to .doc and see what happens
try this first with anything that is not important just
to see if it works if it does then you can try it for others


Yes you could be infected. If you didn't change things something did.
Here is a couple of things you could do.
Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes
Anti-Malware is a
free download that removes
viruses and
malware from your computer

These will scan and look for
bad things. They are both free.
Update before scanning.

Is the data on a memory stick or
on your comp...if on your compu...
you can do system restore to
put it back to a time it works
use google to findout how to system restore

Yhemit: D test was completed 100%....@deji.

pls call 07082998588,08133018196
adetwin it would be easy that way

onyekabe: Why have all my files
become Windows
Media Player
shortcuts?:
When I open a file, it
opens Windows Media
Player. I don’t know
what happened.

zugoboss: After successfully installing primavera on my system,it refuses to open. keeps on saying unable to connect to database server, Must the system be connected to a server. whats the way out? so many peeps are having the same issue.

Hello,

What Operating System are you using? Are you using Windows 7? If you are using Windows 7, please make sure that you are launching the installation with Administrator Privileges. To do this, you can right click the installation file and click the "Run As Administrator".

Also, please check if you are able to login to Methodology Management directly.

If you are able to login, Please check these following entries in the registry:
HKey_Current_User/Software/Primavera/Databases/MM/CurrentAlias
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Primavera\Databases\MM\Aliases

Check if there are discrepancies on the data in these locations and correct them if necessary.

If you are not even able to login to Methodology management directly, uninstall the application and reinstall it with Administrator Privileges and configure the database properly.

Hope this helps.

Yhemit: Sting@Hangn was d result....

We've noted the laptop is hanging but what was the
hd test result. restart laptop keep pressing f10 go to
diagnostics and select hard drive test. make sure there's
enough battery power or AC powered to finish the hd test
and if possible run the memory test


Does it passed the HD Test ? either pass or

Laptop may be overheating ?

Here's my diagnostics for you.

vista service pack 2 or Window 7 service pack 1

click start, all programs accessories, run and type in
wuapp press enter L@@k you must have about 30-50 update available

if you live in nigeria pls dont install it because it will eat all
your internet bundle/credit. That naija for you

wolebaba: Get a gud antivirus...wat U did is an ingenious way to stop the Virus from running. It still has to be removed. To prevent a re-occurence, always scan any USB stick U wanna use on yo lappy.

Treat your device nicely people....se you see all the wahala U have to go tru to resolve this problem.

@wolebaba welldone for your continuous professionalism.
I read all your posts with delights here in England.

Yhemit: Guys u can't bliv it,dat my laptop is stil hangn lyk hell....am really feed up

wolebaba: I have resolved this issue before. I actually tot my method was crude and silly back then but now I see that it wasn't.

After going tru all the above stated options:

I looked for a perfectly healthy PC of the same model and slaved its HD then copy out the required file.

I then slaved the faulty PC's HD and copied the missing files into them. Se you understand sha. If not send me sms on o8o23996132 hope U have BB I will send U ma PIN. Then we can work together, but only in the evenings.

Really hope this works for you!!!!

I think you have tried this before, havent you ?
if you havent pls do. if you have wouldnt be
easier if you just just backup the data by using
linux live disk or hd enclosure to backup data
and then reinstall xp no matte how long it takes you. visit google
and type in the error msg and there should be
plenty of fixes for you to try

Askedi: HP model number ~nc6000
flashing white cursor on the black screen ~No
Any peripherals attached~No
Is it Nvidia video graphics~No
can it boot to safe mode by pressing f8~The screen remains blank.
The system is on but a blank screen shows.

try connecting to a monitor
pls note your laptopp might need
projecting to the ex display
by fn and a button usually f5, f6 or f7
or something like that. use a vga cable
try something nice and easy its called an ATX reset

leave it unplugged, take out the battery old the on
button for 1 minute them plug in the power cable with out
the battery and try powering it up should work without the
battery and just the cable then if tht works put the battery back in

one of my favourite fixes Pls let me know if it works

If no joy the technician might want to remove the hard drive
and cd and see whathappens

wolebaba: Have U searched the Toshiba website? I am not a Toshiba fan because of their lack of proper service centre. Well I will look it out for you in the morning.

What OS are you using?

A good question was just asked by wolebaba
and also please provide the answer to the below.
I take it that you're installing
from http://business.toshiba.com/support/index.jsp

OS type XP/Vista/windows 7/Linux
Browser type chome/firefox/explorer
Printer most likely 10yrs old ?

Connection type USB cable ?
Apart from toshiba website, which
other site have you tried ?

It maybe you're using Win 7 and
the drivers you downloaded is
not compatible with the printer.
Have you tried running the printer
drivers in compatible mode

You might have to install xp virtual
mode/machine from microsoft website and
then you can use it conecting it with xp virtural mode
and install the drivers just before connectin it is
always a good idea.

Good night

Yhemit: Thnk @sting....
D model HP 635

restart keep pressing f10 and you'd see a bios screen
go to diagos...run hard drive test make sure laptop is running on charger power

wolebaba: I can do a remote connection to resolve your issue. But:

Do U have good internet access? This very necessary for remote desktop.
Do you have the teamviewer app? Download and install the app on your desktop,send me the ID and password.


CAUTION: I may be a hacker looking to steal your info. Lolz am only trying to let you know the implications.

let's woleba remot fix your system and the if no joy.
make sure you have previously followed all wolebaba advice.
make suure you're asking the antivirus to point to the right
usb stick and not your compu..hard drive. have you tried malwarebyte ?

do you have sgns like recycle $ sign on the usb stick
if at the end of the day nothing happens.Last resort

click start and run and type in cmd a black bnox should appear
Once all d infected files are removed from d pen drive,
go to command prompt or CMD on your computer and run the
following DOS command. Here we assume that the Flash drive
is G: drive. If its not G: then replace G with correct letter
as applicable.
ATTRIB -H -R -S /S /D G:\*.*

or

Click on the Windows Start button.
Click on Computer or My Computer tab. It
will show your Flash drive icon there.
Right click on your flash drive and choose Properties.
Click on Tools
On the new dialog box, under Error checking
to fix your flash drive, Click Check Now button.

Yhemit: Mermory ram is 2gb ..... Is til hangn, I don't av norton installn on it.

5hamkhan: hey all, how are you? I hope you are doing good. I recently activated new connection and my network operator gave me free wifi modem. I want to know how can i change its key to use it on my Samsung Galaxay SPlus. i checked it in
Control Panel > Networks
but there are not any Wifi connections to be found. What can i do please?

I live abroad and no little about nigeria modem.
generally the WPE OR WPA key should be at the
back of the wifi if not contact your internet provider

mercylicious: Plz my ppl, I have a challenge.
I have hp 6000 pro sff dt is having windows issue.
On booting, It prompts d error message, dt a windows file is missing and dt I shld repair.
I've tried using d two types of repair on win xp bootable cd ( chkdsk repair and the full repair) but it seems the pc was built nt to accept this kind of repair.
I have also used the os dt came wit it, put d os, it asks for the restore cd, put the restore cd, it confirms is geniune , put back d os and repair, but all to no avail.

Each time I have d issue, I back up and format. Bt this reinstallation takes my time as I have a lot of other applications to install and configure.

I feel someone in this forum shld have a solution to this repair issue.

Good point by wolebaba. It would appear the error msg should be something like
C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\SYSTEM file is missing or corrupt

or HALL, NTLDR,
NTDETECT CONFIG. SYS, loader
kernel HAL
boot drivers
system registry hive

The computer needs to be instructed to cop
the corrupted file from the cd into the installation
path.if you have an original cd as suggested by wolebaba it
may do it automatically but i doubts that happening.

specify the actual error msg to us so we can give you the command
to type. it best to get the correct windows xp cd. if you installed
xp home get home cd or professional vice versa. does not really matter as
such as they both use the same system files but would recommend to get the
correct one

What's the full error msg please ?

Pls guys help me reply to this
as am going to work and may not
be able to reply within the next 24hrs
