wahlay: Pls my hp elitebook 6930p is writing system locked as a result of asset audit management, contact Vicki valcour for assistance. Did you buy it new and how long have you been using it? If the ans is no; who sold it to you? I suspect the PC was taken from a coy and d systems admin set it to behave like when it is lost or stolen so that others cannot use it. As an Admin myself, I cannot help U. But I need ans to d above 1stly to be sure. |

[quote author=skydancer]Just post any problems you are having with your pc here. The more software related, the better. If you're having virus, worms or any other malware problems. Try scanning your PC with RoboSAM first.

Good Luck please my younger sis typed in bios password to my system, which we have tried everything we can think of to unlock it but we can get d exert word she used on it |

Hello, Here's the problem with my pc. After turning it on, before booting, it shows a page with options 'Repair' and 'Start Windows normally. After choosing either of them, it shows a window that says the pc has some errors and asks if I want to repair it. If I click 'Repair,' it shows a window that says 'Repairing windows.' It continues for hours without any difference. Please what shall I do? It's a small hp netbook, with intel atom processor. |

Resurrected a dead dell D600 series from win XP to windows 7. Everything seems cool but there's this huge X besides the speaker icon and I get this error msg (No audio device installed) I have done everything I found on the internet but it seems this one is beyond me. Any help? By the way it crashes every now and then. Right now it has refused to come on. I get the ''no boot device installed'' error msg. It doesn't even read the CD for repair, I don't wanna go for a lower windows as I have done a great deal of installations the last time it worked. I'd appreciate every help I get. Thanks. |

purplekayc: What happens when you play a programme written for a 64 bit of windows on a 32 bit? Naturaly is shouldn't run. You can not run a 64-bit application on a 32-bit host system. The host system or the app will advice u to run a compatible program. On the other hand u can run a 32-bit program on a 64-bit host system. |

But remove the ba3 first plug to ur power outlet and start the laptop, if it continues, u may want 2 take it to a tech, after u must have probably exhausted other advice on this forum. 1 Like |

Hy, People in the house please help. I hibernate my Toshiba mini NB505 Windows 7 ultimate in the night at about 9pm. I forget it like that and sleep overtook me. The following day morning, I turned it on, trying to resume but when it shows the brand name i.e “toshiba“ it hangs and failed to load the windows. I waited but to no avail. So, I press and hold the power button to shutdown it. I reboot it again but it also hang at the brand name without loading windows. So please help me. deji2009: |

Any help? My bother windows 7 on a Dell D600? The system was not designed to run Vista talk less win 7. My advice here, run a low level format on ur Hdd, if it does not complain of bad sectors, then I will advice u downgrade to XP, if it does, change the Hdd, and install XP. But if u still insist on 7 at least upgrade ur RAM, download win 7 audio driver for D600 if its available, that should take care of the audio problem. But I will still advice stick to XP. On the optical drive issue, u may want to use another disk or try another drive. |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Jameel263: 9:46pm On Oct 26, 2013 |
deji2009:The windows is not even trying to load and if I press f8 nothing happens it remains how it‘s. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by deji2009(m): 9:52pm On Oct 26, 2013 |
Jameel263: jameel mk sure the laptop is completely off i got a feeling d laptop is resuming from hibernation. tk d charger and d battery out that way w r sure the laptop is off. pop d battery in and on again immediately no delay yeah keep pressing f8 really hard none stop for about 30 seconds then advance boot option should appear and follow prev instructions that i posted earlier |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Jameel263: 10:05pm On Oct 26, 2013 |
deji2009:Yeah, it apears to be resuming and not rebooting, because even if I pressed the f8 itz not responding. In trying to shut it down i press and hold the power button til it went off, cause the windows is not even loading so i think it is the only option to shutdown the system. I restart it again and it hangs as previously describe. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by deji2009(m): 10:09pm On Oct 26, 2013 |
