Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 10:33am On May 22, 2019
Ok fine please take your system to a technician for check.


zico18:
When the system is turned on, the screen displays nothing, absolutely nothing, so I wouldn't know if it boots to bios or not & I don't think it even bots at all,cos the processor light or so doesn't display, the only light visible on the pc are those on the keyboard & it doesn't make any funny sound or so, every thing seems perfectly normal. & I've tried removing & reinserting the ram several times, event changed the ram to the second port but still no joy.

Hi... My HP pavilion dv6 doesn't display anything on the screen anymore. It didn't fall or anything & I'm quite sure it's not the PC screen. When I turn it on, the fan speeds & some lights on the pc shows & nothing else. I've tried several possible solutions I saw online like draining all the power in the pc & the likes but nothing seems to be working & I haven't made any headway. & I need to add this... The screen displays sometimes, after it has been abandoned for a long time... What could be the issue here guys... I'm thinking the ram... Pls help oo
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 3:44pm On May 21, 2019
First elongating a charger is not advisable and if you must do it make sure its done properly please go get another charger to see if your charging port and battery are still working as it should be.

If yes you lucky but if not you need to take your system to a technician for further troubleshooting.

Please someone should reply, I want to know how to go about fixing it with a tech. Thanks in anticipation

Ok fine kindly allow your technician to check the speaker connections.

Update is usually downloaded as one but you can actually check for what the update you downloaded contains.


Nelsonmoney:

After updating drivers with driverpack system was perfect. screen no longer blurred, text and power options were including but i still have trouble with the sound.

I could hear sound if I could in headset but when i removed it i hear nothing. I'm thinking maybe the speaker is not connected to the motherboard. pls help me

How do I download update one at a time from widows update?
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 4:37am On May 21, 2019
Check another charger that has the right voltage ratings for your laptop

Please discontinue the use of the former charger so that it will not cause more damage.


jtjohn:



yes
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 8:30pm On May 20, 2019
Go to your device manager and check if you have network driver missing,

Network controller to be specific.


Lotel:
Hello
Pls my hp notebook 15 laptop wifi and Bluetooth doesn't work
Last night I tried browsing from the laptop through my phones Hotspot buh the laptop's wifi wasn't turning on
Normally it is supposed say something like "searching for wifi networks" or so buh nothing was coming up
I even switched off and on the airplane mode buh still nothing

I also tried sending a file via Bluetooth to my phone but I wasn't going as well

So I'm guessing the problem is something about wireless connectivity
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 8:27pm On May 20, 2019
Did you change your charger at any point in time?

well it depends on what you want tho, downloading will not come with license but will still do the same as what you will get in the disk.

you can get the installation disk from computer village should be less than 500 but know that it is pirated version you will get for that price original windows 8.1 disk will be btw the range of 10-15k.

Since your device manager shows that the sound card is present it means it was connected.

Just install the right driver recommended by the manufacturer use driverpack the online version that will get the right driver all you need do is to install.

And yes the upgrade might be a possible cause of the problem.




Nelsonmoney:
sir I need your help please
My system sound does not play aloud but I can listen through headset. all drivers are intact please.

I gave the system to friend so he could resolve the BIOS issue, is there a possibility that he didn't connect the speaker or is the problem from the Windows10 upgrade I did?

Not really your screen and flex needs to be checked first.

Hello house. My Asus laptop just go into sleep mode on its own. What could be the fault. And if I plug in my charger, the screen dims black and brightens again.
Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 5:24am On May 16, 2019
My advice is never buy a system with that kind of fault you might end up spending more than required.

dollyj1996:
sir I need ur advice on this I want to get a system with full knowledge that the charging port is faulty though it works perfectly well with the battery. the battery could be charged in another system and it will work in that system bt I have heard issues where charging problem involves changing the motherboard completely so my question is can I go for such system considering my financial strength?
Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 10:19am On May 15, 2019

Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 8:50am On May 15, 2019
First your need to clear your BIOS password kindly remove the CMOS battery and locate The jumper its often labeled CLEAR, CLEAR CMOS, JCMOS1, CLR, CLRPWD, PASSWD, PASSWORD, PSWD or PWD on your motherboard. To clear, remove the jumper from the two pins currently covered, and place it over the two remaining jumpers.Some computers may also clear the password by keeping the jumper open (one or no pins covered).

Then you can carry out your OS repair if still the repair dont work you have to start a fresh installation.

Nelsonmoney:
I was performing a clean installation and it went wrong. System cannot boot and Bios sequence is locked therefore I can't repair with CD. What should I do please?
Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 1:36pm On May 14, 2019
change both the battery and charger.


Makschinchin:


Exactly..

My own battery is not booting the laptop too, when plugged in it just shows charging light and when I turn on, the screen is black.. I was thinking maybe because the battery is drained

If I try another good battery, it works but won't charge up, just stays at the same percent
Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 1:11pm On May 14, 2019
oh i see, which means the charger works but will not charge your battery correct?

Makschinchin:


The laptop is working fine on desktop mode, that is, I can only use it when battery is out and it's plugged to light
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 8:30am On May 14, 2019
well i believe it should work you are only extending the port so it should work.


concord129:

Thanks.
Oh there was a mistake in the question I asked. What I meant was; I have a system that I can't connect the hard disk to it using the default port due to damage in the flex. Now, my question is, can I purchase an external adapter to connect the hard disk to the system? Will I be able to install windows on it even though it's connected as external.
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 8:08pm On May 13, 2019
You can install using a flash drive just make the flash bootable you can use a thirty party software like wintoflash to achieve that


concord129:

Hello experts, can I install windows on my hard disk using external hard disk adapter? Or what other options do I have?
Computers / Re: Solution To Computer Hardware/software Issue For Free!!!!! by etech: 5:03pm On May 13, 2019
Well first you should have checked the power rating before you insert that charger in your laptop,remove the battery and charger hold the power button for about 30sec after which you should insert the battery and charger and see what happens.

After all if no positive result then the laptop need to get to a technician for check.

Makschinchin:
Hi etech, used a wrong charger on my system and it went off.. Used back my charger but it's not coming up.. Tried all I can and currently I can only use it on desktop mode. If I insert my battery and charger, it will show sign of charging but laptop won't turn on, just a black screen..

What could be wrong?
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 3:06pm On May 12, 2019
First you need to get your charger and battery checked.

As regards your mouse slow performance when charging your battery remove the battery and use charger to power and check if its still the same thing.

Let me know how it goes.


Samfilo31:
Can a faulty battery ( plugged in not charging ) affect the performance of the mouse

I mean if i switch on the system the mouse will roll but doesn't click anything even the right click button doesn't until 1 or 2 minutes before it starts working normally

De only problem i notice on the system is my battery which is not charging but showings plug in not charging at only 2%

Any any please
Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 6:16am On May 12, 2019
You need to get an external hard drive enclosure insert the hard drive from your pc into it then use usb connector from the enclosure and connect to another pc then access your files.

What do u mean/how do i slave the hard drive

Computers / Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 6:47pm On May 11, 2019
First open the HDD location and check if its properly afixed upon confirmation and all is well and you still get the same error.

Check for any hard drive noise as there are possiblities of damaged sector if the system was hit against any hard surface if no noise please proceed to slave your HDD and take out all your files. Then you can install your OS.

If you don't slave that hard drive to take out your files before OS installation your files will be lost.

Hello, gave out my pc to a friend. Returned it and when i switched it on it only displays "boot device not found
