Better still, you can type fsquirt into the run dialog (search for run in your start menu.), make sure your bluetooth button is not orange in colour, select 'receive files' and attempt to send again. If no joy, let's know, if otherwise, pin the program to your taskbar for subsequent access.

Thanks a lot bro. What about adding a stick of 4gb ram to the already existing one, making it 8gb. How will it enhance its performance?



Yup...4Gb should be Okay . if Are not loading much apllications at a time.. But Boosting it ro 8Gb would be so much awesome brov.

Surge In Electricity leads to Motherboard breakdown mostimes. Let's no make an ascertion in here. You should let An hardware engr check it up.


Same Happened to my Pc. Was Browsing Thru NL..and the Thingy went off FIAM. it later resulted into MDB wahala.




Getting ur saved files asap.. find a means of Getting ur HDD out . then browse with another PC

About the document, the easiest way to get the file regardless of the general health of the computer would be to unscrew the hard-drive and connect it to another computer so you can get the file.

The problem could be a lot of things. Might be just the cable, power supply most likely, but could even be the motherboard. Try smelling the back of the power supply to see if you can smell anything burnt.
If you can get another cable, try that. I would have suggested you try another PSU, if you know how to connect it.

Wow, these are brilliant !

You'd notice if someone sent
a laptop from abroad to nigeria, I bet u
within 6 months the laptop would have
broken (faulty jack/charger/melting plastics, plug in not charging to
name a few due to nepa lights and peoples negligence.

I did as advised here and I have my document on flash now. You were right about your speculations concerning the motherboard. I probably might see an engnr later today. Thanks a bunch boss.

windows 8 systems don't particularly have hibernate options unless you do some tweaks. However updating or installing a graphics driver would solve the sleep option problem
