I need help

My new HP laptop is working but nothing seems to be showing on the screen. You can see all programs on the background of the screen, but sort of no illumination to project it clearly to the user.

I have tried all i could but to no avail. Kindly advice accordingly please.

Dear wale,

Thank you for the above enquiry and do appreciate your explanations.
look for and press FN+F4 or F5 to increase and decrease the brightness.

Is this XP or Vista ? Does this happen when running on charger ? This can either
be a software or a hardware issue. Here's your prescription in narrowing down
the cause. Make sure charger is connected> turn on>keep pressing F10 or F1
until you see a blue screen >Bios setup utility> when you're in Bios>
Does the screen looks the same ?

Good luck

pls i want to install windows xp for someone but his cdrom is not working and the only option is to use a flash, but the last time i formatted a pc with a flash it was one engr that did it for me,so please can i get the steps and the software because i can remember there is a software u have to install in the flash to make it bootable or so.
secondly, my cousin's laptop dell inspiron is always bringing out lines on the screen u have to press the panels of the screen for it to show.what could be the problem.
thirdly, someone brought a computer for me to fix and it happens that the only problem is that the laptop makes some continuous sound during bootup until u press a key. what could be the problem, i don't think it's the RAM
fourthly, i also have a laptop that my neighbor brought for me to fix, the mouse is just moving on it's own rapidly, i don't think it's spyware because it's not opening any file.

pls guys help a brother before i fall my hand, they know that i am studying computer engineering that is why they want to fall my hand.

this is what i got from google

Internet Connection Sharing using a computer

Firstly, you need two network cards on the computer. It will work exactly like the router with a WAN interface and a LAN interface.
Now the easiest way available if you are using Windows XP is to go to Network Connections and select the "Set up a home or small office network" link from the left panel. This will open a wizard that will guide you in completing the task.
If you don't want to use the wizard, you just need to configure the ICS option. First go to Network Connections and select the two connections, right click and select the bridge option. This will make the two cards aware of each other.

Now right click the connection to the Internet and select Properties. On the opened box, uncheck the Client for Microsoft Networks and File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks protocols because it's a security risk.
Now click the Advanced tab and select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection. It's a good idea to enable the first option too if you don't have a firewall installed on the machine. Now all the computers in the network should access the server's Internet connection.

Note that the server must be powered on to share the Internet connection.

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by savenaija: 8:59am On Jun 27, 2010
OMOYET

if you right click on the connection, does it have enable?

also on most HP laptops there is a physical switch which turns the wireless on/off

or goto device manager

on XP
start>
control panel>
system>
hardware tab>
device manager button>

network adapters
click on the + sign

you should see the WLAN rightclick and enable

On vista
start>
control panel>
system>
device manager button, should be listed on the left hand side>
network adapters
click on the + sign

you should see the WLAN rightclick and enable

Thanks
you can either enable it by turning on your wifi card ( most computers have a switch or button) or you can verify that the drivers for you wifi/bluetooth card is installed by checking your device manager ( start -> run -> devmgmt.msc ) check to see if you have a yellow triangle on the network card. or go to my network connections, right click on the wireless connection icon and enable it if it is disabled

hope that helps

you want to go to control pannel, then regional and language options then look for keyboard and languages and click on the options and select either english united states or english united kingdom. Apply and that should solve that issue.
