Dospix: Helo gurus...I use a hp dual core Amd processor;currently,some of my keyboard keys just stopped working:start key,shift,esc,g,h,delet,alt,1,2.pls what do i do? I realy need your assistance.
emove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer.

Click the Start button , click the arrow next to the Shut Down button , and then click Restart.
Do one of the following:

If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts.
You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the
Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.

If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highligh
the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys
to highlight the safe mode option you want, and then press Enter.
For more information about options, see Advanced startup options (including safe mode)

Open word pa or notepad then test the keys. what happened ? if it works in safe mode could be a software
conflict causing it in normal windows. if does not work could try system resote next when you contact us
hope you have not tempared with the bios just of recent Hardware visualization when do you start having this
problem. do you have more than one antivirus software installed

Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.

toksade: Thank you very much for your response. It's very useful. I follow the process but I could not find anything like system progressive protection. But what happened was immediately I contacted the virus I seek for all possible solution. Then I asked online and I got a key code for that virus which I used and I was able to remove the virus that the system progressive protection claimed it saw on my system. I was asked to run a prog registryfix.reg, which I did. But other thing the site asked me to do was not successful, like I should download RKILL to scan my system with and other things like that which I was not able to do because they weren't downloading. Although, when I put the key code, the system was release and I can do what the virus as deprived me of from the time I contacted it. But the issue now is that after a while I began to see this messages: ''Science_1.2: lihirycosxam.exe'' - Bad Image. Then ''I/O Erro 1816'' will follow with many of it on the screen. And any time this come up, everything wil stop working on the system. Please if u know what I can do about this kindly tell me. Thanks.
That's good. I'm out now maybe wait for my colleagues to reply

No Qualms: The system is Acer Aspire 5920.

The ACER (Csmiley drive shows 8.71GB free of 111GB while the DATA (Dsmiley shows 25.4GB free of 107GB.
D drive is your erecovery management. do not mess with it or copy to it !




More things to try:
Turn off Hibernate (if you never use it).
Right-click the free space on your desktop and choose "Properties"
Click Screensaver tab and click "Power"
There you will find the "Hibernate" tab.

Do a Disk Cleanup:
You will find this in th Start Menu-> All Programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> Disk Cleanup. Or right-click on your C: drive and choose "Properties". It's right there in the "Generel" tab.
It is safe to chose everything on this list (but I recommend unchecking "Temporary Internet files" as it annoyingly gets rid of all your "favorites" icons, and will fill back up in a few days anyway)

Defragment & Error-check C: drive
Right-click on your C: drive and choose "Properties".
You will find these in the "Tools" tab (may take over an hour for EACH).
Error-checking begins only after you restart your PC and will make it unusable for an hour or more. It does not require your attention during that period though... when it finishes it will eventually log onto Windows.

And finally:
You may want to tone-down the System Restore requirements:
A couple of Gb or 12% is more than enough for me, so maybe enough for you too.
You will find this by right-clicking "My Computer"-> Properties-> "System protection/Restore" tab. Chose C: drive and click "Settings"

Hope this helps!

Personally I would buy external hard drive save all your
work, pictures , document etc on it and reset the laptop
using alt+f10 on restarting to take to default settings.

okizle: Hello!

So my PC has refused to shutdown. Task Manager also won't start. The CPU usage even when Idle fluctuates btw 80 and 100%. I didn't install anything recently.

After a bit of research, I discovered that this program/service SVChost.exe is the one causing the CPU usage leak. The thing is that the program is legal but it is simply running in excess. Now if I try to kill the excess in Command prompt, everything comes back to normal for a few seconds. Then the computer restarts itself and I experience the ish all over again. Pls help asap. I can't start photoshop and some programs. And I have jobs due. sad .
Download speed fan and tell us the temperature of your pc

No Qualms: Hello gurus, I discovered that the memory of my hard disk started reducing without saving anything on the system. My C: drive is showing red now. What can I do stop this and restore the lost memory?

This started after I browsed with the system (the last time I browsed with it was several months ago) and installed some updates. Please help.
What's the make and model of your computer ? I take it to be hp or a compaq.
Please have another look on the c drive, what's the free space left ?

Do you have a D recovery drive ? if you do what's the free space

We aksed this because if you're using hp there's a recommed
method to follow.

Dospix: I use hp pavilion dv6...right now my bluetooth drivers is bad;i tried downloading it frm hp website,but couldn't find the bluetooth drivers...what do i do,and where can i download the drivers?
Is it Hp dv6-400ct or similar ?

We need these numbers.its very unique to each product.

While holding down the Ctrl and Alt keys, press the S key on the keyboard.
The Compaq Support Information window appears.
This window contains the model number of your HP computer.
For example 6330US.Also check the back of the battery

When you have this go search for it on hp website and download the drivers you need.


or


If your computer has the HP Support Assistant, you can find the model
number at the bottom of the main screen.

jeffstone: What could be this issue? Yesterday, the onsite computer engineer came to my place and stated me that my computer is unable to start because over use and the graphic card gets heated. He added don't over use it. Does my graphic card could be a reason of all this? I'm not sure?
Does it turned on ?

Does it show anything
on the screen ?

Can you hear the fan spinning ?

When was the last time you take it
for a service or have someone serviced it ?


It's could be due to overheating hence
why is unable to start. A computer don't
stop because of using it too much. it would
continue to run because you have carried out
a preventative maintenance such as cpu fan
cleaned with compressed air, thermal compound
artic silver reapplied to cpu. consult your
techncian again he might have a solution for you
or get back to us

joudini: Guys, ma HP CQ61 is tryna act up. The keyboard just keeps typing a character continously. Am doubly certain its not a virus. Wat could b wrong?
And pray tell, how much is an original new keyboard for it?
The first suspicious cause of this problem are the malwares.
scan using malwarebytes and see if there's a virus
You can check your computer by not using any keyboard.
Don’t attach any keyboard
open virtual keyboard click start, all prog...acessories, ease
of access, on screen keyboard and start typing [/b]anything
for about 30 seconds using your mouse to click the letters.

If the problem persists then the problem is with you Operating system.

restart laptop keep pressing [b]f8 quickly go to safe mode
. dont panic !
the icons will be big. open notepad or wordpad and try typing using your
laptop keyboard. If you are able to hear continuous beeps when your computer
starts then it is sure that the problem is due to a key being stuck/ pressed.
[/b]so either check the keys using [b]compress air to blow debris or change the keyboard
.
If the problem is with the key board then r[b]emove the dirt [/b]and it will work again, if it didn’t then change it.

try a usb external pc keybaord and see what happens

all4naija: One of the most important things that is not mentioned is if the charge got burnt out and the battery drained. I think the troubleshooting should start from there than from the middle of the problem.
deji2009: Earlier on one of my colleague asked, if the fan comes on when you power it on
deji2009: Laptop full model e.g. HP TX1000 or DV9000
Check at the back fo the laptop on the
top of the white labels


Peep/Look through the laptop charging point
without the charger connected and see if any
burn or melted plastics.


check the charger in question is 19v
Connect the charger to the laptop charing point
and try wigggling/shaking the far end of the charger
to see if you feel any movement/loose insde the laptop.

While you're doing that also keep an eye for any LED lights
try this several time and see if you'd get any lights as you
wiggle the charger.make sure the charger is connected to the mains.
at this point does not matter whether is gen or nepa

We're checking to make sure the laptop power jack has not seperate itself
from the Hp motherboard
.Have you also tried ?


Diagnostics

*Take out the battery,
*Remove main supply,
*Hold power button down for 30 secs,
*Put only power supply in, do not put battery in
*Turn laptop on
*Put the battery in.
All4naija please take time to read previous post.

Okaakoko: I have tried all that, but all to no avail. The light only pop up for like 2 seconds and off. Please whats mobo? Motherboard?
The laptop is ? e.g. dell, hp, toshiba

Have you used a generator before ?

This contributed to laptop problems
in nigeria because I carried out a study
when I visited my family house. The result
was shocking. if you can avoid charging my gene
rator is not good. you know how our NEPA light is -
sometime, either is low current or too high current
NEPA light,. all these could have play a part.

If you can make sure your ram is seated
properly. AT your own risk !

When does the problem happened ?

adewasco2k: That is kinda simple if you cant find any thing like wifi on network adapters under device manager then it means you dont have the driver installed...so just visit hp website and download relevant driver.

NB
if you can remember the name of the wireless on your PC initially that will help you download the right one at once or you should just do a driver scan to tell you the exact driver.
Hints:
Ralink
Broadcomm
Intel PRO
Realtek
Atheros
Brilliant !

romania: Her laptop does not boot into windows with her
defective RAM inside. Immediately her system is turned on, d first "page" that shows up keeps blinking so she can't press enter 4 d system to boot into windows. If she presses enter, d system does not respond.
Should I carry out the test on her laptop with the defective RAM or on my laptop? If it passed, is the RAM still good? And if it failed, what does it mean? What if the system does not respond while am pressing F10? Is there anyway I can check if the RAM is still good on my system?
Restart her laptop with her defective ram inside

And immediately

Keep pressing F10

Until you Bios setup
Utility use the arrow key on
your keayboard to go to
diagnostics and run the
memory test. run the long one
for lenghty analysis. It would
either failed or passed

Make sure you download from microsoft site http://www.microsoft.com/net
I cant think of anything that would stop you from installing a .NET framework

samfaj: Hi

Recently i just downloaded a game called the Sims Medieval and when i tried to open the launcher an error came up saying

"To run this application, you must first install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework: v4.0 Contact your application publisher for instructions about
obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework."

I have a Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit

I've been trying download the .Net framework v4.0 but the error keeps appearing and the .Net framework setup verification keeps telling me that v4.0 "Product verification failed"

Please i really need help, thanks.
Firstly, I would suggest you to try updating your windows 7 via Windows Update.
Windows update finds and installs any critical security fixes
and patches overall for the Windows OS. Whilst this may
not be the case 100% of the time, it is better overall to keep
your system up to date any way to make sure you are protected
from any bugs or such things.
