I use a compaq presario c300, with windows xp sp2. I took it along on a bumpy road recently and ever since it stopped startin up, it boots on, flashes a blue screen error then gives a number of options. Any attempt of the options only restarts and returns to the previous options. I tried repairin but its sayin no hard disk was found, i made sure u hard disk is in place and also performed a hard disk test which was successful. What can be the prob? |

deribigbe: Dear Deribigbe, Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding system and power performance when charger is connected.Like my colleague has advised to try and swap test the charger can rule out the possibility of faulty charger or notebook power jack failure. Seems you're using a universal or a generic charger. Here's your diagnostics in ruling out hardware or software failures. Click http://www.pcreview.co.uk/articles/Windows/Vista_Power_Options/ and follow screen instructions all the way down. Look cpu performance when charger is connected and try increasing or decreaing then test Like a doctor always advice read the label same as always read the on screen instructions if you're in doubts dont do it. Good luck |

dis may b off topic but pls where can i get nero 7 to download? i want 2 use it to burn dvd's n cd's. mine (nero7 disk) has scratched n kips saying error after installing half way i have my serial number still |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by henryskywalker2003(m): 10:43pm On Oct 04, 2010 |
@ceasyc , nero is not a free product but u can get the trial edition from their website www(dot)nero(dot)com. its a heavy software so i hope ur system is up to the task. if its only burning u need it for then i suggest u go for the free softies like ashampoo burning software free edition or imgburn. they will do the job wella. @ebiye55, try to remove any external devices and remove cd plates from the rom while u use it. it helps too. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by ceasyc(f): 10:57pm On Oct 04, 2010 |

bijelee:first things first did it stop starting up or stop booting up you might need to reconfigure your hard disk settings under configuration check wether your hard disk is SATA or IDE if it is SATA then you will need a windows xp cd with sata drivers inside cos by default windows xp sp2 does not suppport hard drives insert the windows xp cd with sata drivers and enable your system to boot from cd punch the R key untill the recovery menu comes up and follow on screen insructions but i'll suggest you take it to a nearby technician as it might also be a hardware problem, and you might not have all the neccssary tools to get your system working again, thanks, |

I Please stan, i hail u. how can i have access to my system. I forgot my admin password and i can't afford to format the system for anything. Is there a way i can break into the system without losing any file. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Centjay: 5:30pm On Oct 07, 2010 |
hello guru. my battery shuts my system down when i put it. The first battery was burnt or damaged by a power surge from my generator. I managed to put the system to normal state because it damaged everything. Now my system is ok but my battery cannot power the system. I bought a new battery but the battery does not charge when i put it. What can i do about it? I took it to my engineer and he could'nt fix it. I am using it only with nepa light while i have a new battery. Please tell me what to do about it. What can i change in the system to make it start charging my battery ![]() thanks |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by henryskywalker2003(m): 1:23am On Oct 08, 2010 |
@centjay. It is very possible to retrieve ur files, and even remove ur password. Get a linux live cd eg ubuntu. Put it into ur cd drive and boot from it. When u get to the desktop, go to the top panel and click on places. It will display among other things, your hard disk. Click on it to mount and open it. Copy out your files to flash drive and reboot. If you get into any problem give me a call and I'll walk u thru. As for the battery problem, am not so good with fixing hardware but my best guess would be that the components that convey power to the system from the battery is damaged. See a good technician for that. |

And manliness D: (Data) having 110gig. Now the disk c @benqozenero, I guess u re the one that called me in the morning. have u tried plugging in a monitor to your laptop to be sure it is not ur screen that is having an issue. try that and let me know the outcome.
@kindability, before u install a game, check if ur hardware meets up with the recommended specs, else in worse case scenarios, it wont install. let me know ur system configuration and also show a screenshot of the error message. I checked out ur laptop and saw that its a netbook. netbooks usually come with intel atom processor and its not meant for any heavy work like games and mulitimedia editing. its probably why u get the error messages, but then i could be wrong. let me know ur system specs. |
