What format are these videos in? Also what graphics card are you currently using?

Two Questions: How much RAM has this computer got? and How much processing power has it got? Thanks.

RAM could also be a slight issue, but agreeing with Josh, it looks to me as if your gfx card is either faulty or you don't have the correct drivers installed. But after 3 weeks a laptop shouldn't be doing this, i do highly recomend you take it back to …

If you don't want to download anything, take it to your nearest tech centre and let them restore them, although you will be charged for it.

Have you changed it recently? Or installed a better one?

If it's not booting, look for dislodged or misplaced cables, check you have put the RAM in correctly, or if you accidentily put in some different RAM if you had some spare. Think about checking that all of the data cables are corectly placed in (the thin grey ones).

What gfx card is it?

Also check that it is the same type of RAM and is compatible with your motherboard. E.g. ur current RAM lets say is PC3200 Ur old RAM lets say is PC2100 The old RAM wouldn't work beacuse it is the wrong type. To see what type it is, look at …

Try the 'save password' tick box if there is one. I have mine logged in automatically when i go onto it. A good thing to do is to bookmark the 'control panel' page of your user account, then you don't have to keep logging in all of the time.

well i don't think you can run both OS's at the same time, but you can choose to boot up on XP, if you have the correct disc. This is done by inserting the disc and booting with the disc in, then it should load in XP and not vista. …

Well changing a case would not affect the workings of a CPU. Have you dislodged any cables, or put them back inthe wrong place? Check that all of the power/data cables are the correct way round and in the right ports.

[quote=hamada_1990;407973]all English people look gayish sorry no offense but its true :D[/quote] That's possibly the most offending thing people can say. Everyone bad rep this man for saying such crap.

A way round the waits: Continually press * and # in many different orders. Such as *#*#*#*#*# etc. Or ***** and ##### This then makes the telephone system think that you are an idiot and automatically puts you through to a person to talk to. Try different combinations to trick …
