doofanc:it sounds like a simple problem...but u forgot to mention the router or modem u are using..... if the dhcp is not distributing ips dynamically(static)..then ur system would refuse to get a valid ip.. the problem is not coming from your laptop but from router/modem.. or are you on a private or dedicated server also,are u using a vpn or concealer?eg hotspot shield,anonymizer,hide myass...etc? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by doofanc: 8:51am On Oct 23, 2015 |
sameolg616: thanks very much for d reply. I use a variety of means: Airtel and glo using my phone as hotspot and I also have etisalat as usb, and then at office I use broadband. however I don't use any IP concealer, VPN or d like. the funny thing is all d above means were working perfectly before I embarked on rather bumpy journey from abj to Benue. I don't know if that could cause it. d problem has seriously destabilize me as it virtually useless without internet. it just refuses to pick a valid IP. d it guy in our office tried manually inputting d IP, but still didn't work. what could be d issue? |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by sameolg616(m): 12:09am On Oct 24, 2015 |
doofanc:the bumpy journey cant be the cause of ur ip problems...if the network card is bad or broken then it would report "no network card installed".. using multiple connections..wifi,lan cable,usb can have some kind of negative effect on ur adapter...atimes,wen i connect my iphone via cable to my laptop,it automatically turns on my ethernet with my hotspot simultaneously..i would then disconnect one for the other.. be stable on a connection then troubleshoot |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 1:45am On Oct 24, 2015 |
doofanc:1) When did you start experiencing the problem. 2) If you have a restore point restore your system back to when it works. 3) How many network adapters do you have at device manager under networks? 4) You can manually input you network information at the network properties in advanced settings.(if you can provide your ip, dns information I'll show you where to input then) 5) It could be your ethernet card is faulty. |

Help!!!! I plugged my 1Tb external Hard disk into my PC and it's asking me to format before use. The used size and free size are both reading 0B. Pls i need help on how to recover my documents. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 4:40pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
Alphaoscar:That is possibly caused by one or more bad cells. I would suggest you try it with another battery and see if there is any difference. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by crixtech: 6:02pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
I thinks you are being misinformed about how a laptop fan works. It is meant to start spinning once the laptop is turned on, so in your case I think there is a problem with the fan, so you need to have it checked by a technician dbshaywhy: |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by crixtech: 6:10pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
Just get a new battery or you could try calibrating the battery by charging fully (in your case 86%) then allowing it to discharge completely to 0%, and then charging again fully if it can get to 100% See this battery calibration guide http://diystec..com.ng/2014/12/steps-to-calibrate-laptop-pcs-battery.html Alphaoscar: |

That looks like a problem with you GPU (graphic processing unit), ot could also be a screen issue (lcd connector) just take it to a technician for repair scrubber: |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by BetaTechnicians: 8:25pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
dbshaywhy:check if the fan is not turned off in bios, whatever happens, the fan is expected to start immediately the systems starts working, then it may stop till temperature rises but if it does not work at all then you should be worried. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by BetaTechnicians: 8:29pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
larrytoks: Get a data recovry software and run it to recover your documents but you may have no option than to format the hdd for continual usage. |

larrytoks:i guess its the usual suspect again-WD my passport....the one with using the blackberry cable...i have had 5 of this cases this year.. u can call me on 08061679732...data recovery is one of my strong points make sure u dont open it or allow anyone format it.. formatting reduces the chances of data recovery |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by dbshaywhy(m): 7:55am On Oct 25, 2015 |
BetaTechnicians: Pls, I dnt get wat u mean by "fan not turned off in bios" hw can I checked dt? |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by doofanc: 11:06am On Oct 25, 2015 |
all4naija: thanks very much for this. 1) started about 3weeks after I returned from a jounry 2) tried restoring, didn't work 3) two: realtek PCI controller and ratlink b/g/n wireless 4) tried it, but didn't work. funny thing is one IT guy ran ipconfig and compared d settings with aother computer with working internet but there was basically no difference. device manager says everything is fine. 5) final option we are yet to explore. I hope to do that 2mro. thanks for d help once again. |

Hello nairalanders please my hp ts15 n088nr just stop booting caps lock led keeps flashing. Even the bios is not coming up, I have tried a different ram, reset my bios with no positive result please I need assistance very urgent!!! |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by doofanc: 11:21am On Oct 25, 2015 |
sameolg616: thanks very much @sameglo. I use Symantec antivirus. we've tried desabling d AV and even running in safe mode, still no avail. honestly d thing done tire me. up to 3 different specialists have looked at but no answer. feel like smashing it sometimes. though d guys are sayong its unlikely to be software issue, I'll try d IP resetter and keep my fingers crossed. thanks once again for d assistance. I appreciate. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by sameolg616(m): 12:40pm On Oct 25, 2015 |
doofanc:symantec is not a standalone application...it has various dependencies..you will have to remove all the applications associated with it completely to have a complete uninstall... try un-installation and not disabling it so we can eliminate the possibility of the AV as part or the problem.. as an alternative(manual method) to the app i sent... -search cmd(command prompt) -right click and run as administrator -at the c:\ type netsh int ip reset c:\resetlog.txt -restart ur system |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by crixtech: 12:55pm On Oct 25, 2015 |
Explain in details, does it boot normally with the fan spinning and lights on but no display or just the caplock light? obainoaj: |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 1:19pm On Oct 25, 2015 |
obainoaj:Take it to the tech for maintenance. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Nobody: 1:24pm On Oct 25, 2015 |
doofanc: I think it is hardware issue as the three other experts say. Try to replace the NIC(network interface controller - ethernet card ) which is probably faulty and it will be good. |
