@Deji, u don set questions for JAMB b4?
@poster, true, u need to make urself clearer huh
lol. is true though, a technician got to understand user's
requirement. If I am not satisfied I don't offer help as I could
be making it worse. common issues like computer is slow, cant connect
to internet, no power. all those things need to be broken down

you know more yourself. That the industry for us all.

hello guys, my school gives wireless internet service but with my wlan laptop i can get the service. when connected i will see on my web page their login logo requesting username and password, but i have known. is there a way i can bypass it to allow me browse.
Dear Sir/Madam,

I have read my colleagues advice and would like you to

follow A_K_O advice. firs and foremost, what connection

are you on ? e.g. Wireless, LAN or VPN which I am guessing.

What's browser do you use ? Internet explorer, Firefox etc ?

Good luck and thanks for enquiring.

My Dell Inspiron 600m suddenly turned off. I cannot start it with or without the power supply. It remains black. Whenever I connect the power supply, the power indicator light on the power supply turns off. What should I do?
I struggled to understand. could you please explain much better.

I got missed up with[b] the power indicator light on the power supply turns off[/b]

do you mean the charger, laptop or the mains  where it was pugged in

The term power supply needs to be clarify.

Does it power up ?

Any LED Lights ?

Fan spins ?

Turned off by itself ?

Does it work by charger or battery ?

Good luck

Hello Sir/Madam,

What make is your laptop ?

e.g. HP 530. XP, Vista or Windows 7

Which site is it happening to ? When does it start ?

Are you using Internet explorer or Firefox.

Is it slow to boot into windows or slow generally ?

With this I and my colleagues will be able to

proffer some diagnostics in resolving this  issue.

am having a prob with a compaq nx6325 laptop running windows xp, when i power it, it boots up to the logon page, immediately after entering the password, it logs off and then returns to the logon page again, its been kind of a cycle, i need help with this. thank you.

@deji, av tried what u offered initially on the thread, the laptop did not go off suggesting its not a hardware prob. expecting help soon. Thanks
I don't know what you tried. would be helpful if you can quote.

Below is the notebook in question. isn't it ?

I'm guessing I ask you to restart pressing F10 or F1 for Bios. when

there use your arrow key to go down to Diagnostic then hard drive test

If this utility is not included. Then don't bother. check to make sure no

damages to the USB ports and your DC port, where your charger goes into.

If you manage to get to Bios then leave it there for 30 minutes if logff there

then is a hardware problem. How old is your machine ? visit the Manu website

for know issues/firmware update. could be RAM not seated properly or is not

up to 512MB of memory, which is windows XP minimum requirement.

if no joy then take it to a technician. As we are 1st point of contact not much

we can do here as I and others don't recommend disassembling your laptop without

prior training or pre-requisite. Static electricity can kill your components.

You can do so if you wish. Is entirely up to you. Below is the notebook in question. isn't it ?

Just a thought after I posted this. could it be a Bios or Windows password ?

Some machine may logoff if Bios password incorrectly entered 3 times. Please find pic after laptop

RuuDie:
what could be the possible cause of this (*see attached picture below*) - when folder icon is right-clicked in win-explorer, where do those two extra items on the context menu (*circled in red*) come from huh
Very strange and to be sincere, I have never come across this.

By the looks of the picture seems E and P are drive letters attributed

to a device attached to your computer e.g. external hardware or a pen drive

Here's your diagnostics,  check to make sure nothing attached to your computer

if there is disconnect them and see what happen. I would also suggest doing

system restore to roll back the computer to an earlier time when the problem started.

If in doubts use google to find out how to use system restore

Like the previous tec has said. could be a virus and try scanning.

Click start > Run > type in MRT and press enter

follow on screen instruction in scanning the system for files

such as win/dir . Good luck and thanks for enquiring.

are you sure your audio card is by sigmatel? try downloading unknown devices and running it to know if the driver is working and more importantly the proper manufacturer
Absolutely right netotse. I checked the manufacturer website, seems

there are 3 drivers on list. I suggest he tried the remaining two

If no joy then he may also try realteak AC97 audio or creative audigly

zogo:
Its been quite frustrating here in my cafe as i cant access yahoo mail, but i can access other sites very welll. what do u think could be the problem. besides am using a broadband ku band dish. pls comment. tenx
Depends on what type of
email you are using such
as POP3 SMTP or HTTP

or do you access you mail
from e.g. www.yahoo.com

What's actually happened ?

Any error messages ?

Can you access secure site ?

When does this start ?

Try other web browsers such as
Internet explorer, Firefox, Opera
just to mention a few. try accessing
your email from another computer
and see what happens.

If it's accepted, then clear your cookies and cache in your web browser. That's the number one cause of this problem.
IE6, 7, 8: From the Menu Bar, do Tools | Internet Options | You land in the General Tab of a new pop-out small window titled Internet Options. Click on Delete Cookies and confirm, then Delete Temporary Internet Files and confirm. When completed, close the Internet Options window.

Firefox: From the Menu Bar, do Tools | Clear Private Data. Make sure only the Cookies, Cache and Authenticated Sessions tick boxes are checked, then proceed to clear those.

do you have the problem after clearing your cookies and cache/temporary internet files?

Make sure your clock/date is set right. Good luck and thanks for enquiring.

Alternatively do a battery check in making sure
your battery is not defective.

Make sure you are using the right charger if not then
test with a different charger and see what happen.

Turn off the laptop back on again please and  keep pressing
F10 or F1 until you see a blue screen that says Bios setup utility
make sure charger is plugged into laptop and into the mains
and leave it on the Blue screen for as long as you can.

If laptop shutdown on the  blue screen then is a problem with
the motherboard itself and need replacing,but does not worth it.

connect your charger and try wiggling it from left to right
from centre to right etc and see if we shutdown

if it does then is a problem with the power jack on your laptop
and need to be de-solder and re-solder back on again

Good luck and thanks for enquiring.
Having said that, could be a problem with the charger.

Try and swap test the charger wit a different one.

i have a dell latitude d600 and it gives me the same problem . It doesn't charge it only uses direct current and whenever the lights (NEPA) go off the laptop goes off too . I have taking it to lots of repair guys (quacks i believe) and they couldn't do anything about it . I believe it has something to do with the circuitry but i don't know if the laptop circuitry can be fixed.
Is a problem with the battery and we need to verify that to be  100% certain.

Here's your diagnostics. Turn off Laptop back on again and pressing Delete or F2 key

until you get a blue screen that says Bios setu Utility. use your arrow key to go down

to power management and check the laptop battery status.Here's an illustration.

I have hp pavilion dv6700, i formatted it, i am unable to driver the sound, i have installed the driver that i downloaded from hp website and is not still working
I'm guessing you did HD recovery format and not a disk.  if HD format then,
Here's your diagnostics  in hopefully resolving this problem.

Restart the laptop in question and keep pressing  F11 or F10 until
you get a progress bar with [b]windows is loading file[/b]s message then stop.

You"ll then be prompted with something similar to below. Click advance option
and select load driver> sound driver. should be High Def conex or something like that

if option not on list then go back and click next should be somewhere there.

Do us a favour please. underneath the laptop on top of the sticker should have the model number

which you posted earlier on. e.g. DV6700ef. something like that in helping us finding the appropriate driver.

Also get yourself to device manager if don't know how use google. look for sound video game controllers

click + underneath what does is say e.g.  high def conexant or realteak ac 97.

If you did a cd base recovery then follow same method.

You should be laughing.

I use HP AMD. Recently I noticed that the cursor was hanging and then the battery was not charging normally. The battery only charged upto

10 or 12 percent. It became worse when the cursor began to hang permanently. I continued to use it like that until one day I noticed that when I

Unplugged the AC adapter, the cursor started moving freely. Then I knew I had to do something. I Bought another AC adapter. Again the system

battery is charging only upto 28 or 32 percent at the most. Although the cursor is no longer hanging it now, it is still exhibiting some funny features

like shaking, going to where it is not directed, clicking what it is not directed to click.

Please what could be the problem?

purplekayc:
Can someone tell me how i can solve blue screen 4rom comin up on my laptop each time am on d internet?
Here's your diagnostics

1. Start Windows XP or Vista
2. Once you hear the first beep during the startup process, begin tapping the F8 key on your keyboard repeatedly until you receive an onscreen menu.
3. Select option #1. This should be Safe Mode try it there and see what happen.


If XP

Here's How:

Navigate to the Control Panel in Windows XP by left-clicking on Start, followed by Settings and then choosing Control Panel.

In the Control Panel window, open System.

Note: In Microsoft Windows XP, depending on how your operating system is setup, you may not see the System icon. To correct this, click on the link on the left-hand side of the Control Panel window that says Switch to Classic View.

In the System Properties window, click on the Advanced tab.

Locate the Startup and Recovery area and click on the Settings button.

In the Startup and Recovery window, locate and uncheck the check box next to Automatically restart.

Click OK in the Startup and Recovery window.

Click OK in the System Properties window.

From now on, when a problem causes a BSOD or another major error that halts the system, the PC will not automatically reboot. Rebooting manually will be necessary.


If Vista


Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: Disabling the Automatic Restart option in Windows Vista usually takes less than 10 minutes
Here's How:
Click on Start and then Control Panel.

Tip: In a hurry? Type system in the search box after clicking Start. Choose System from the list of results and then skip to Step 4.

Click on the System and Maintenance link.

Note: If you're viewing the Classic View of Control Panel, you won't see this link. Simply double-click on the System icon and proceed to Step 4.

Click on the System link.

In the task pane on the left, click the Advanced system settings link.

Locate the Startup and Recovery area and click on the Settings button.

In the Startup and Recovery window, locate and uncheck the check box next to Automatically restart.

Click OK in the Startup and Recovery window.

Click OK in the System Properties window.

You can now close the System window.

From now on, when a problem causes a BSOD or another major error that halts the system, the PC will not automatically reboot. Rebooting manually will be necessary
