ATX Reset
If you have had any issues with you computer and phoned the help line number one
of the common things they will ask you to do is an ATX reset,
Basically this just resets the power supply in your computer
and in most cases can solve some power issues.

How to perform an ATX reset:

Disconnect the power from your computer.
If possible remove the battery and external devices.
Hold the power button for about 15 seconds
Reconnect the power
Press the power button to turn on your computer

then shutdown and put battery then star again to start
using windows normally

If this does not solve the power issue it may be the hardware its self
which is faulty and will need repairing or replacing.

Man, i did all those things. The laptop just dey misbehave sometimes. Do you know how much i can get a new HDD. If possible, the sizes and there prices. Am looking at 250GB and above

deji2009:

what's the full model number of the pc. e.g HP SR501


Have you run windows 7 upgrade adviser to determine
if the pc is compatible to run windows 7 32 bit or 64
bit ? No such thing as windows 86 bit, could it have been
a typing mistake.

I'll suggest you should take it to an engineer. It might be that the usb ports are faulty and needs to be replaced or the wire connecting tthe ports to the motherboard is bad amd for your Dvd Rom, I advise you try it on another system to find out if it'll work on another to determine if its the DVDRom or from the motherboard.
Although you could service the system by using spirit to clean it

What kind of noise is it making. Does it sound like something pulled out. If it makes a noise like that then i suggest that you see a computer engineer, it might be the RAM or hardisk that has pulled off.
