My HP 8460p shows plugged in but doesn't charge the battery at all. Also When I disconnect my charger from the ac supply, the indicator on the charger stays on. This started after I tried elongating the cord of my charger and mistakenly made wrong connections. I have tried all troubleshooting methods I found online to no avail. What could have happened. Thanks ![]() |

Check another charger that has the right voltage ratings for your laptop Please discontinue the use of the former charger so that it will not cause more damage. jtjohn: |

walex2bad: Please someone should reply, I want to know how to go about fixing it with a tech. Thanks in anticipation |

First elongating a charger is not advisable and if you must do it make sure its done properly please go get another charger to see if your charging port and battery are still working as it should be. If yes you lucky but if not you need to take your system to a technician for further troubleshooting. walex2bad: |

Hi... My HP pavilion dv6 doesn't display anything on the screen anymore. It didn't fall or anything & I'm quite sure it's not the PC screen. When I turn it on, the fan speeds & some lights on the pc shows & nothing else. I've tried several possible solutions I saw online like draining all the power in the pc & the likes but nothing seems to be working & I haven't made any headway. & I need to add this... The screen displays sometimes, after it has been abandoned for a long time... What could be the issue here guys... I'm thinking the ram... Pls help oo |

Good morning room, I just bought a new HP 255 Laptop AMD Dual Core - 4GB RAM - 500GB HDD with FREE DOS. Is there any possible way to install windows 10 on this laptop without paying licensing fee |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 5:00am On May 22, 2019 |
I have some few quesrions; 1. It boots to bios 2. The light that blinks where is it coming from keyboard or hard drive 3. Do you hear any funny noise from the hard drive 4. Have try to remove the RAM and insert again zico18: |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 5:04am On May 22, 2019 |
Keyboard just needs to be serviced if you can open and get to where the keyboard is fine but please if not just take it to a technician. But did water or something pour on it. ayox1: |

Yatahamal: Hi. If you are in Lagos, I can help with that for a token amount. (0908 2687 404) Having said that, an alternative would be to access the Microsoft website using another PC. On the Microsoft site, you'll need to download the ISO file of the prefered OS and burn to Flash drive using a tool like "WinToFlash". Once done , remove the flash and insert the flash into your FREEDOS PC and install the windows. *Cheers* |

Thanks in advance. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by ayox1(m): 10:00am On May 22, 2019 |
etech:noting poured on it.. Am surprise to, something that worked perfectly okay yesterday, only to switch it on today and meant the keyboard misbehaving.. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by zico18(m): 10:03am On May 22, 2019 |
When the system is turned on, the screen displays nothing, absolutely nothing, so I wouldn't know if it boots to bios or not & I don't think it even bots at all,cos the processor light or so doesn't display, the only light visible on the pc are those on the keyboard & it doesn't make any funny sound or so, every thing seems perfectly normal. & I've tried removing & reinserting the ram several times, event changed the ram to the second port but still no joy. etech: |

ayox1: That's electronic for you naa. You need to replace it. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by udemzyudex(m): 10:11am On May 22, 2019 |
zico18: The fan speeds? Do you notice any increase in speed? The screen displays some times? In your recent reply you said the keyboard light comes up too. Well suspecting a corrupt BIOS ( ME region) But first check with another RAM if no solution,take a to a laptop engineer to flash display BIOS. |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by zico18(m): 10:19am On May 22, 2019 |
Yes... It comes up & displays sometimes.... & I noticed a decrease in the fan's speed just few seconds after turning it on udemzyudex: |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 10:28am On May 22, 2019 |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 11:22am On May 23, 2019 |
seems like some program/installation is trying to run immediately after that startup well first scan your machine for malware/virus and let me know the outcome. serenityaliyu: |

etech:okay bro will try that and get back to u |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by etech: 2:09pm On May 23, 2019 |
First know that this is not officially supported, you will have to install a replacement bios for your chromebook( Basically its a UEFI firmware which is the modem replacement to the traditional bios)this will allow you boot and install windows. However not all version of chromebook support this so its a 50-50 thing please share your version and spec then we can go from there. ak22: |
