Right-click the network name and choose 'forget this network' or something similar. Then, toggle the WiFi button on/off and try to connect again.

ComputersRe: Between Hp 250 G1 And Hp 250 G4 by shawlxAk(m): 1:42pm On Jan 20, 2016
A PC with minimum CPU speed of 2.0 GHz and at least two cores, will suffice. Also, make sure it has at least 4GB of installed physical RAM. Check the link below. It will be very helpful.

When was the last time it worked fine? Have you gone into BIOS setup to verify that the feature is not disabled?

It's advisable to return that computer and get another one from a more reliable source.


odimbannamdi:
Guys pls i need your advice.

I just got a dell pentium M laptop from an importer who cleared it from a container. I plugged it a working charger that has an indicator light but the pc switched off the light. We tried 3 other chargers, same thing.

An engineer diagnosed the issue to be power problem and he charged me 3k to fix it.

what guarantee do i have that, after fixing the issue, it wont re-occur.

Most importantly, am scared that the pc may have other issues apart from this power problem.

What do you guys suggest?? should i go ahead to fix it or i should just dump it and save for a new one?

Remove the battery, and reinstall it.
If it doesn't work, replace the battery.

Do you have a valid data bundle or sufficient airtime?

Have you tried a different network? Your current network provider might just be experiencing some issues.

You recently formatted the computer. What version of Windows is it currently running?

Try booting into safe mode.

You didn't state your OS version. I assume it's Win7 or later.

Go into Control Panel > Network and sharing center > Change adapter settings (upper left corner).

Right-click your WiFi adapter and click 'Properties' > Click 'Internet Protocol Version 4' in the 'This connection uses the following items' section, and click 'Properties' below.

Verify that the radio button labelled 'Obtain an IP address automatically' is selected, as well as the radio button labelled 'obtain a DNS server automatically.'

E383:
Good evening house,

I am really hoping this could be resolved here.

Here is my challenge. Just last night, I tried to hibernate my system which is what I usually do whenever I have a major job I am on. This, each time I tried would redirect me to the Windows log in page. I tried this like 3times without success and then decided to restart the system if it would solve the problem.

After this, the system refused to come on, displaying that there was a problem trying to start the system that I needed to do a restore, a blue screen showing a crash dump whatever. Since it was late, I forced a shut down. Before this event, I'd been browsing with my mobile phone's hot spot.

Just this morning, the problem was resolved. Only that the system got very slow and I have been unable to browse the internet (it connects quite alright, but it does not load a web page). Mind you, the network is excellent. I tried very hard to use a public wifi which I usually did every week, this time, it connected but I still could not load a web page. I tried different browsers, Chrome, Mozilla, even the internet explorer I'd not used in eons.

This is exhausting, *sigh. I need help ASAP. Please, somebody, anybody! sad

I recently formatted my system and there is no restore point to fall back on.

Please help. cry

ShawlxAk, others.

ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 11:14pm On Jan 11, 2016
Check my previous post dated Jan 08, for the steps to perform system restore. When you are done, disable auto-install of Windows updates.

idrisalomagold:
Please help. Each time my system download updates and install, when I switched it on again it is telling me failure configuring windows update, reverting changes. The computer name is dell d620. Please help. Its windows 7 ultimate.
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 10:35pm On Jan 10, 2016
Go to Control Panel > Programs and features > View installed updates.

Uninstall the most recently installed Windows update. That should solve the problem.

Note, if you get an error message relating to Microsoft Installer Service, just google SafeMSI, download and run the software from a flash drive to enable Microsoft Installer Service.

DisGuy:
nothing that i can remember, windows updates regularly- once or twice every other month

will stick to the netbook for now and get another laptop - this Laptop has seen better days tbh

Many thanks for trying guys

Too bad! Are you sure that you didn't install or change anything at all (software/hardware) before the problem started?

Windows updates were not installed automatically?

In safe mode, backup your files and reformat the system as a last resort.

DisGuy:
Unfortunately, no system restore point has been set
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 8:45pm On Jan 10, 2016
Remove it from the computer, and then put it back in. If it doesn't come up still, test the system with another RAM.

dotsdavidson:
Please how do I do this?
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 6:13pm On Jan 10, 2016
Reseat the physical RAM.

dotsdavidson:
Good day Engineer,

Please my HP laptop has refused to come up. When plugged, light comes up by the side buy the screen is blank.

What can I do to bring it back to life?
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 2:36pm On Jan 10, 2016
Use system restore first to fix the original problem.

I only advised you to upgrade because you are using Vista. But fix your problem first.

DisGuy:
it only comes on with Safe mode
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 8:55am On Jan 10, 2016
Exit safe mode and try again. Remember to backup your documents first.

DisGuy:
I cant upgrade to windows 7 on safe mode it says! Help
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 8:35pm On Jan 09, 2016
Good to hear that.

For the slow start-up issue, you may have to examine your computer's start-up items and disable unnecessary programs.

Press and hold the Windows key + R > Type msconfig in the search box and press enter > On the system configuration panel, click the startup tab > Click to hide all Microsoft services > Look around and disable third party applications, except those relating to your security software > Apply the changes > If prompted, restart the system.

Follow this link as well, to do some basic cleanup. http://sholadaitman.com/2014/08/help-your-computer-run-more-efficiently/

If after everything, the situation does not improve remarkably, then you may need to backup your files reformat your computer system.

Mintayo:
Thankz bros, I did as you said, the laptop is working well now I think, though it's still kinda slow when coming up,but like before.
Thanks again.
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 4:06pm On Jan 09, 2016
Use system restore.

BTW, try and upgrade your system to Windows 7.

DisGuy:
Good day experts

ComputersRe: On Board Or Bios Password. by shawlxAk(m): 4:04pm On Jan 09, 2016
The only way to verify that, is to actually open up the system. In any case, you can always connect the HDD to another desktop PC.

Nazacent:
ok bro! But one more tin pls, will d HDD be the same with that of a laptop stata HDD cus its a desktop all in one.
ComputersRe: On Board Or Bios Password. by shawlxAk(m): 8:29pm On Jan 08, 2016
Try detaching the HDD, and connect it to another computer. You should be able to format it from there.

yh I tried formatting with an original Os bt it still refers me back to d encryption after clicking on f9
ComputersRe: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by shawlxAk(m): 7:37pm On Jan 08, 2016
Only if you want to. Before you do, manually create a restore point. You can find a comprehensive guide on my website, if you need assistance with that.


Mintayo:
Okay. Thanks, I will do that tonight.
Do I need to carry out any window updates after this. I realized it's been a while I did that.
