Pls how do I upgrade my hp laptop from windows 7 professional to windows 8 without backing up my files( does dis upgrade have effect on system) |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 10:06pm On Mar 01, 2015 |
epaulo: You'll need a windows 8 bootable cd 1.Insert it in the cd drive and restart the system. 2. Boot the system from cd, try f2,f10 or f8 or f11 3.Follow the installation prompts 4. On getting to where you'll be asked to choose partition: just select the partition your windows 7 is currently installed and install the windows 8 5. Follow the installation prompts to end 6. The former windows files would be moved to a windows.old folder in your drive c, from there you can copy back your files to the newly installed windows 8 FEED ME BACK |

ommo: I don't understand, you mean the command window comes up? after logon? if its so 1. Press "win key" + "r" 2. type "msconfig" 3. Press "enter" 4. Navigate to "startup" tab 5. Look for command window and uncheck it GIVE ME FEEDBACK |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 11:45pm On Mar 05, 2015 |
Babysho: That occured because of the downgrading you did. Make sure what you downgraded to has the same processor architecture requirement as the one of the os that came with the laptop. If its 64 bit os that came with the laptop, make sure is 64 bit os you always install and the same thing for 32bit os. |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 11:47pm On Mar 05, 2015 |
epaulo: For how long?? Please try and wait patiently for it. did you follow the steps i gave you? When you got to the partition section what did you do? |

gememerald:I could not get the boot cd so I am installing it directly from my system (someone copied the file to my system through flash drive) |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by ommo(m): 8:07am On Mar 06, 2015 |
gememerald: I tried the above and on getting to "startup" tab, the was no command window. What i mean by my earlier post was that, anytime my PC boot to windows, the windows goes dim after sometime and displays this messege "Net command" whiles giving me the option to select YES or NO. On selection of yes, the windows becomes bright again and i can use my system. It is like Microsoft windows is asking me permission to run "Net Command" on my computer. This wasn't the case before last year. My of late also slows down and heat up easily. Thanks for your responses |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by Babysho(m): 11:20am On Mar 06, 2015 |
gememerald: so what do i do now? |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 11:30pm On Mar 06, 2015 |
Babysho: Just follow what i recommended you'll probably have to reinstall the right windows architecture |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 11:32pm On Mar 06, 2015 |
epaulo: That's not the best. find and download "windows usb tool" use the tool to burn the windows 7 from your system into a flash drive then use the flash drive as the bootable device. FEED ME BACK |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 11:35pm On Mar 06, 2015 |
ommo: Click on Start-Run, type: msconfig, then click on OK. When the System Configuration Tool loads, click on the "Startup" tab, then see if " c:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe" is listed there.. If so, UNCHECK the box next to it, click on "Apply", then restart the machine. Upon restart place a CHECK mark in the box to NOT run System Configuration Tool at startup.. Or you could simply open the registry editor and check for the listing at either the locations below. If so, delete the line indicating such: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Hope this helps.

please help! just changed the screen of my hp2000 yesterday after it got broken last week. just this morning i notice that the battery is not charging fully... it stops charging as soon as it reaches 97% or also, then it brings up 'plugged in, not charging'. i have tried another charger to ascertain the cause, but the same problem occurs. I have tried uninstalling the Microsoft ACPI and scan for hard wares changes, yet no change... Pls what do i do to rectify this prob? |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 5:26am On Mar 09, 2015 |
youngcee: Your motherboard might be failing But before jumping into that conclusion Test another ram Test another hard disk If possible test another processor But its likely ram or hard disk issue. |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 5:28am On Mar 09, 2015 |
jonath0012: Discharge it to 3 percent and recharge it, FEED ME BACK |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 5:32am On Mar 09, 2015 |
SULBELL: What is the make and model of the system? Remove the processor and reapply the thermal paste on it spreading it over the processor top Reset the bios (look for a small sized lithium ion battery, remove it for like 5 mins and then replace it) Generally dust the system using a dry brush or blower Are you sure the ram you tested it with is ok? If not try another ram and clean or dust the ram port. FEED ME BACK |

Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 7:42pm On Mar 10, 2015 |
ewosk: Did he change the os I mean did he install the os again or installed another one If he did, make sure the one he installed is the same processor architecture (32bit or 64bit) that was there before. FEED ME BACK |
Re: Computer Systems Repairs Thread (Hardware And Software) by gememerald(m): 7:48pm On Mar 10, 2015 |
GREATP1: From your enquiry it is likely the touch flex and to change that I'll advise you visit ikeja and price it in shops (not from guys standing on the road) after getting a good deal head over to the building behind slot along medical road, there is a technician there. Negotiate with him to replace it. But before doing the above try to open and clean up the system lcd assembly if you can, try another ram Also pres "ctrl" + "alt" + "delete" repeatedly IMMEDIATELY after pressing the power button on the system. 1 Like |

gememerald:thanks OP, its a HP 6735s. The ram i replaced it with was working perfectly, i had even tested its own ram on another system and it works fine. However, i think I will have to rip it open and do a general dusting though I'm not that comfortable fussing with the bios. Once i did d general cleaning and no improvement, then i may likely need the helping hand of an expert. |
