Hi Leo, I bought a new HP laptop DV6000, for some reason everytime my laptop stays on for a while Windows Vista starts acting funny. The clock would dissapear in the corner. Sometimes the whole bottom would dissapear. If I click on the Windows key to log off or shut it down, A clear box just shows with nothing in it. I have to constantly use the Ctrl Alt Del buttom to logg of and log back again. After that the problem goes away. Sometimes when I would go click on the corner where the clock is it would say "Windows explorer stopped working", and then it would fix it for me. Now it doesnt do that anymore. What is causing it to do this and is there a way I could prevent it?
Posted by: Gardy at January 4, 2008 1:19 AMHi Leo, I bought a new Gateway laptop and the keyboard isn't working. I can't type in anything and the only thing on the keyboard that works is the mouse. How can I fix this?

If it's a new computer, have Gateway fix or replace it.

Clearly something broke when you dropped it. I'd have you
take it to a technician for diagnosis and repair.
Good luck!

Similar problem, I have just got a new Acer desktop and turned on for the first time. Get message 'The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. to install Windows click 'OK' to restart the computer,and then restart the installation.'
When we do this, the same message appears again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't see any link on this page to the next article in which you get the replacement Dell machine and set it up.

PROBLEM: I HAVE HAD TWO COMPUTERS HOOKED UP ON A LAN NETWORK TO THE INTERNET THROUGH A ROUTER ONE WAS AND OLDER COMPAQ AND A NEWER EMACHINE BOTH RUNNING XP . . WELL I GOT A BOOT VIRUS AND SO I ENDED UP GETTING A NEW EMACHINE SO I COULD BOOT AND REDO THE OLD ONE WITH THE BOOT VIRUS WHICH WAS THE EMACHINE. . RUNNING XP . . . THE NEW MACHINE I BOUGHT OF COURSE CAME WITH HOME VISTA PREMIUM . . . IT SEEMS TO RUN PRETTY GOOD . . EXCEPT ITS A REAL CRAP SHOOT TO GET TO ANY ONE CERTAIN SITE ... MAYBE I GET THERE THE FIRST TIME MAYBE 10 -20 OR 50 TRIES OR . . SOMETIMES I NEVER DO GET AWAY FROM THE "SITE NOT FOUND". . . STRANGE I HAVE DSL AND EVERY OTHER MACHINE ON THE LAN HAS ALWAYS WENT RIGHT TO THE SITE WITH HARDLY EVER A PROBLEM???

I recently start building a new computer its a P7P55D Pro motherboard, i7-860 Quadcore cpu, 4gb kingston Ram, GTX 275 896MB 448Bit Gddr3 VideoCard, 600W power supply.
When i powered up the computer the Dram LED stayed on, then when i hold the memOK button to begin memory compatibility tuning it starts blinking and reboots however it continues to reboot a few more times then finally nothing has changed.
i have no image on screen and no beeps of any kind
