Am very confused, i want to develop my blog.And i want to use html css and js.so i can handle project my own.But i was advised to use wordpress theme.But in a case where only html and css and js will save me at work..which should i go for

Just jump into your Wordpress file directory. As a programmer, you should be able to locate where to edit/add the necessary HTML, CSS and Javascript commands you need your blog/website to follow.

You don't necessarily need to reinvent the wheel, unless Wordpress won't be of help to you. But, once you get comfortable with Wordpress, you can make it function to your taste.

pls any help or idea to solve this problem? pls

You should change your Hotspot's name and password, or release and renew your IP address.

°°° Release/ Renew IP Address °°°
* Open the Command Prompt

* Type ipconfig/release, press Enter.

* Type ipconfig/renew, press Enter.

Reconnect.

I use a HP COMPAQ DC 7900
please can a graphics card be installed on it if yes which ones please

Yes, it can. You should consider any of this;

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500 (integrated on chipset)

ATI Radeon 3470 256MB SH PCIe x16 graphics card

ATI Radeon HD 2400XT 256MB DH PCIe x16 graphics card

ATI Radeon HD 3650 512MB DH PCIe x16 graphics card

NVIDIA Quadro NVS 290 256MB DH PCIe x16 graphics card

Good luck!!!

Please, I have been using my Hotspot with my laptop but I wanted to use it this morning my laptop found the Hotspot but it's writing 'can't connect to this network'

First of all... You should restart your PC and try again.

If that doesn't work.... Create a new hotspot connection with a different name and password, then connect.

Pls how much will it cost me to upgrade my ram from 4gb to 8gb?
Hp250 g3.... Intel celeron 2830...2.16ghz

If you'd be needing a 4gb, the cost should be between 5k and 8k...while 8gb should cost between 12k and 15k.


N.B: not so certain, it's a rough guess.

noob03saibot:
Sorry, but won't it ask me for my windows installation cd?

You wont require the CD if you follow the instructions well.

noob03saibot:
Thanks for your concern man, but I don't feel it's a device, mouse keyboard problem. I v also scanned and scanned, in fact my name should v called scanner, but got nothing. I actually checked the msconfig, the start up tab and saw list of things that start up with my pc, among them was some thing called smart protection anti virus. Dude, I don't know how that managed to get there. And the publisher was unknown. So I ran a Google check on it and found out that it is a fake anti virus and it is in fact a virus. But funny enough, no anti virus has picked this up. I v tried to disable it. But anytime I reset my pc and go back to check it in msconfig, I see it abled again. But if I disable it and don't reset, it stays disabled. How can I disable the shit permanently please?

Alright. A factory reset should solve that.

noob03saibot:
How I knew they could b malicious is that the anti virus report scan said so. And the laptop has been malfunctioning, like when I boot it, instead of going to the home screen it goes to library. Also when I am scrolling with the scroll bar to view items it is always scrolling to the base, no matter how hard I scroll up, it must scroll down, and when I go to the home screen it is always the last shortcut folder icon that is highlighted and if I try to click on any icon or button on the screen, it is always the last folder that will open. Example the last folder icon on my screen is smadav and I want to click on jet audio shortcut icon, it is smadav that ll open. And when I send data to my phone after disconnecting the use cable, I ll be seeing new empty folders in my received compartment of my phone, folders I didn't create. I v scanned the system with every anti virus known to man, but they keep saying no virus detected, only hidden objects found and another anti virus said warnings 74. Don't know what that means. But google said warnings ain't a threat, it means that some data couldn't be scanned, sir, I am thinking of formatting it. How can I formatting it to make the hard disk as blank as new? And would the virus survive the formatting? How reliable is f disk formatting?

I also feel it's a msconfig problem. The picture below is the exact same headache I am facing right now.

The issue you're having might be because of a Mouse or Keyboard Malfunction. I don't know if you tried navigating the screen with your keyboard.

You can try to test with an external Mouse or Keyboard to see if it's the same or not..., or uninstall your recently installed apps.

Do a Rootkit scan
https://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/virus-removal-tool.aspx

Try this:
Go to Device Manager, select your Mouse/ Mice and other pointing devices, right click and Uninstall it, then restart your PC.

To Do Factory Reset:
Backup your files, if you can.

Disconnect all connected devices.

Search for "PC Settings", select "Update and recovery",
Select "Recovery", choose "Remove Everything and reinstall Windows".
Select "Get Started" and follow the onscreen instructions to start the factory reset process.

Formatting your drive should solve your problem.

Sure. Computerboy helped me fix it..
Thanks for ur concern

Alright. Good.

noob03saibot:
Hi mr Demie, been a while. I want to ask if there's any way for me to unhide hidden objects? I ran a check on my system with a viral anti virus and it's report was that there was no virus infection, but there were hidden objects which could be malicious. Please, is there anyway I can rectify this? Thanks in advance

Yeah man!

You said "there were hidden objects which could be malicious", how did you know that

Also, you want "to unhide hidden objects", which mean...you want the hidden objects to be shown or visible to you.

In that case, open any folder on your PC, from the Ribbon above, where you have (Home, Share, View, Manage), select View, Go to the section where you have Show/Hide, there you can check or uncheck hidden items as the need may be. When it is checked, the hidden files are visible and vice versa.

Hope that solves your problem.

N.B: most necessary system files are hidden, try not tamper with them.

I can't even have a wall paper because it keeps taking me back to a black screen.. I have even tried updating windows from my windows update all to no avail as it keeps telling me to try again... I want to have a genuine windows 7, Please what do I do[/size]
@ Hollarmy, Dermie, Lexusgs430 and others

I hope you got it fixed already.

noob03saibot:
OK, thanks sir, you have been helpful. But I have even forgotten about the matter till further notice. Don't want to have b.p on this Bluetooth issue. Ll still give it a try sir.

You are welcome!. Alright

MIcdej:
OK. thank you

You are welcome!

noob03saibot:
No, there are no more details. That was all I saw on the screen. And like I said earlier, I just got the system, and it was a refurbished one, so I haven't connected to wireless "lan" before sir. You said something about installing a Bluetooth adapter or so, should I opt for that? But the "wlan" part may pose a problem, cause I have never tried it before so I won't know if it is working, but I will assume it isn't working since the Bluetooth isn't sir.

Ok. Yes opt for that. Install the Qualcomm Atheros bluetooth adapter [https://www.atheros-drivers.com/atheros-bluetooth-drivers.html] and/or attach a Bluetooth USB adapter.

You should still try to test the WLAN.

noob03saibot:
Good evening sir, sorry I am late in getting back to you. I have ran the command prompt as admin, here is a snapshot of the result I got

Good day, Alright. I see only the "Wireless LAN" and "Ethernet adapter" details, are there more up?

Have you connected successfully to a wireless network before?

fazzy28:
Nope its nt damaged, just stopped one day.. . Finking on taking to wia I can get it fixed, tho tot if Dia was sumfin I wasn't doin..

Ok. Go to Device Manager, expand Universal Serial Bus Controllers, right-click on each of them and Update Driver Software, select Browse my computer for driver software, select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer, choose the model name that corresponds to the controller you want to update, click Next, Close.

If the Update doesn’t solve the problem. Uninstall each controllers, then restart. They should install automatically.


Note: Make sure you update all before you restart, in case you're prompt to.

Alternatively

Remove your battery and hold down the power button for 30 seconds.

Just recently, my PC froze and I fixed it. Two days later, it developed other complex issues. It gets very hot and gives off a smell like something is burning. I guess thats why the battery hardly lasts up to two hours now which even after a full charge. Also, the windows always suddenly restarts each time I put it on.
It's a hp 250 and it doesnt come with a fan.

If it didn't come with a fan, it's meant for light and basic use. Don't expect it to survive with heavy use (Video and Photo editing, Games and other resource-hungry programs).

Do a regular Disk Cleanup, Get a good and updated Antivirus for Malware and Adware scan, Make your Browser lightweight (less customizations and extensions), Disable Windows animation, Uninstall unused programs.

Good morning gurus in the house,
Please,of recent i noticed something on my system,it actually started after i upgraded the system to window 10.

The used hard disk is around 317GB out of the available 677GB,but it started to reduce,it actually started or lets say i noticed about a month ago,and it as now reduced to 294GB without me deleting anything. I actually told someone about it and he said i should use Disk Defragmental on windows and i did,it returned back back to 317GB before it now start reducing again.I tried to use the Disk Defragmental again but it dosn't have any effect.Please i need help.

Do a cleanup...Search Disk Cleanup and open, Click the Disk Cleanup button.
Select the drive you want to cleanup. You should see the amount of space your files take.
Select the types of files you want to delete and click OK.

MIcdej:
Hello,
I need help on how to recover my files. PC is not detecting the hard disc and an engineer helped to use another PC with hope of getting my files but the hard disc is not coming up.

Is there any means to get my files cos I don't haveany backup.

Thank you.

Yes, there is. Get a USB Hard Drive Enclosure (SATA/ IDE).

Note: Always remember to power off your PC and unplug power cord before touching internal components

The Program version updates provides bug fixes and improvements to the previous one.


thanks a lot. what is bug fixes? I av just updated the program version. probably update d engine and virus definition later sha.

You're welcome. Bug fix is a correction to an error/ fault in a program. Okay.

ksbusari:
I use Avast antivirus program on my computer. To update d antivirus I av two options. To update the engine and virus definitions or program. my question is which of the two is d most important to update in case I want to manage my data. what does each (engine and definitions, or program ) do after I av updated d two?

The most important is the update of Engine and Virus Definitions.

The Engine is a part of the program that scans your computer for potential threats based on the Virus Definitions.

The Virus Definitions database is what the program uses to identify threats to your computer. The update adds new known virus definitions to the program.

The Program version updates provides bug fixes and improvements to the previous one.

noob03saibot:
That's the screenshot sir, sorry I am a bit slow in getting back to you, battery and light problems. Will try as admin and get back to you with a screenshot.

Ok. No problem... But, Is that what you got after trying the 2nd example, or after opening command prompt as administrator?

my HP 250 G3 windows store is nt opening....plz help

Check if your timezone is correct.

noob03saibot:
having a little problem switching over to admin, I have no idea how to switch over to admin, instead I tried it as a user and this is what it says: the default is to display only in address, subnet mask and default gateway for each adapter bound to tcp/ip. For release and renew, if no adapter name is specified, then the ip address leases for all adapters bound to tcp/ip will be released or renewed.
Example: ipconfig... show information
Ipconfig all... show detailed info
Ipconfig/renew....renew all adapters
Ipconfig /renew El*... renew any connection that has its name starting with el.
Ipconfig/ allcompartments/ all.... show detailed info about all compartments
Sir, I left out about 2 examples.

To run as admin, just right click on command prompt in search bar and select Run as Administrator.

Show me the screenshot, I'm sorry I didn't get you well.
