hi,perhaps it a problem with the wireless device you are trying to connect to ,did you try resseting the wireless modem ,sometime just unplugging from the power foe a few minutes ,or sometime it may require using the reset button on the back

just a thought ,after sitting for months ,some computer need to have the video card .ram and othere addin cards reseated ,so if your video device is a addin card ,pull it out and reseat it ,works from time to time

yupp always fix it for me .lol

so you don't remember what you accidently changes it to ,or you just didn't realise you were whanging it

try booting to the in7 dvd ,when you get to choose language ,then install you will see repair option on the lower left ,click that and you can try a system restore back to a earlier day,maye beore the change ,but im not 100% sure it will change back to the old password .as I never use passwords ,memory to bad for that

I really need help with this because I have so many things on my W7 side.

so what happens when you go to mycomputer and try to open the D: drive ,can you access the files there or does it ask for the password

my opinion is its gone bad for some reason ,that the error I got just before I smasked the few I smashed .lol

I have the same issue. The system dispays the log on screen and I left it for more than 30 minutes. It logon screen is still there. But as soon as I loged in and desktop boots up without any issue and then suddenly it shuts down and re-starts it self.

6 year old thread and people are still having the same problem ,,and people are still not finding the answer in this thread ,giving the fact that there are 6 ears of suggestion in this thread ,

so i guess i cant add anything to this ,except something that has likely already been said a dozen time in the thread ,
But,i will anyway

did you check for dust buildup causinbg it to overheat .

did you use the manufactors disk utility to check the harddrive for errors ,

hi,was going to suggest using a recovery program ,but some good info already given on Superuser where you also posted ,hope you didn't already use the drive[like reinstall windows on it ] in question ,that may have already overwritten some of the files/folders
http://superuser.com/questions/478518/retrive-microsoft-outlook-2007-information-after-format

I really do not want to disable it but just a bit curious about it.....

ok
so what is the exat model number of the laptop

hello .I don't use Linux [played with it a few times but just like windows too much I guess ]but I do use google and found this for you .Skype for Linux .
http://blogs.skype.com/linux/

would need to know the make and model number of the usb modem to help you find drivers for it ,
but if the maker of the device has no Linux drivers I think there are options for youI think this is one of the reasons I don't use Linux ,too much work .lol

i use the same version of Firefox as you and it has never crashed on me ,and I use IE10 along with it and have no problem with either one .can say for some reason ,not really sure I don't like Google chrome .to plain I think .lol

I guess I need to start a refresher reading binge,as im seem to be getting behind a bit in whats going on .

rubber man u are right ,i7 can be 2-4-or 6 core ,when buying we need to make sure I guess ,lots of computer makers miss repesernt there computer in more ways than one .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core#Core_i7

Robert.ketron ,im with you 100%

not sure if they are fixable ,did you try right clicking on its icon in mycomputer ,go properties/tools and run the disk check,see what it says , ,and maybe then try formatting it ,

yes it should ,but it would not be that good .it would just use windows default video drive ,most laptops come with a decitaded video device,soldered to the motherboard ,some /all good gaming laptops have devices that can be removed /changed there would be no intel video driver[having nvideo is considered to be better than having the Intel device ] because its not using intergrated intel device, its using nvida device .what is the exact model of the sone,usually found on the bottom of the laptop
why would you want to disable the nvida device ,just curisuos

Does my laptop graphics( like windows aero) work even If I disable the Nvidia driver.

biggest difference is dual= 2 cores and quad =4 cores ,then more cores the better according to the makers of processors ,the more cores the more commands the cpu can handles at any one time .
google.com will have more acurate info that mine of coarse good luck

hi,that usually indicates a usb drivethat has gone bad .my solution for mine that did it was to smash them up and throw away

it could be other programs running at startup using all your ram ,try autoruns for windows ,run and go to the logon tab and see whats running on startup ,count them/ name them/ and post the results back here if you wish

wow sounds complacated ,I cant answer that ,because im thinking no,but then again anything is possible I guess ,sounds like a question for a Programing expert ,an im not one ,look up the top see SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT as you question in there ,

no don't buy any registry optimisers they are crap .

the registry is the heart and sole of windows ,corrupt registry or registry key ,window and its 3rd party software will malfunction .

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry

to me no you are not being clear enough ,are the 2 computers in the same location

some way of simply streaming the position of the movie to the other computer

so what is the position of the movie ,position doesn't seem like the correct word to be using ,maybe "location" is a better word to describe it .
unless the 2 computer are on the same network the internet is the only way I know of to stream from one computer to another ove a long distance

climb way up high in the nearest tree and shout here wifi here wifi

go into to Norton preference and turn it off,just to see if its the problem with firefox

im not saying it wouldn't detect viruses ,im saying its a resorce hog and and personaly donlt like Norton [except for corprate version ]dose this behavour happen with internet explorer ,or is it just firefox ,and yes I think it could be caused by the norton360 temporaly disable it[a setting somewhere in its prefernces ] and try using firefox

get a better antivirus program ,microsoft security essencial is a very very good one,not a resource hog ,running it for the past 2 yrs or more now ,and it catches everything nastthat come our way , and its free , it even built into windows 8 now .

laptop owners don't realise how little dust it take to make them overheat ,and how quick it builds up inside if not cleaned regulary ,should be blown out regulary ,good luck

no dust a year ago doesn't mean its not full of dust now because you cant take it apart then i suggest you try a can of compressd air

can you expalin that a bit more what windows version'you use the word option /and list are they one i nthe same

if you computer has wifi and there is a wireless router connection close it should be added automaticly

download and run minitoolbox check off all boxes and post the log in you next post .
good lkuck

what do you mean by uninstallin you video card ,did you remove it completly from the compuer or just uninstall teh drivers fo it .if you uninsatalled the drivers then you would need to install latest drivers for the video card ,they would be found online ,from the cards maker or from another source . what are the spec of you computer .,like make and model # and stuff like that

and if it doesn't work I could always make you a DVD copy of win7 and send it to you,as long as it was a retail disk and not OEM .or you could borrow one from someone ,keep in mindit needs to be same version

I just burnt the content of the iso file ,Im using win8 so it burns iso file to disk and will also mount the iso, ,no need to use third party software ,what I did notice was that threr was an extra file in the iso after making it not sure what it was for but I left it there assuming it wouldn't hurt

i think you were right the first time ,damaged the harddrive ,did you try running chkdsk on it ,right click o nthe drives icon in mycomputer and go properties /tools and check the disk

disagree ,apple is responsible for its staff .therefor Apple is at full fault ,end of comments for me ,honest

the blame is on Apple ,all there employes or employes of a contracted call center are responsable to/for Apple,they are Apple ,classic excample of "if it happen to you" ,you would be blaming apple too

didn't work ,i burnt the iso i created to the disk files are there but its not bootable,sorry

I found a cd and will burn mine to it and try booting it up in my test laptop .will post results later

hi ,I think you would have to know who it was registerd with and contact them,if it even could be reactivated ,im not sure ,but if he created the site himself,he would have had to use his computer to do so ,or I guess he could have used a unlike site maker of some sort , ,all the special writings and memories would be store on his computer somewhere

I just downloaed for the first time this iso creator program and used it to create a iso of a Linux I have on a USB and it created an iso that I can only assume will work if it burn it to cd ,I just don't have a cd to try it on.i use win8 to mount the iso and it showed all the files and folders that were on the usb ,good luck

what program

try to run a feature of program

try to run a feature of program

If it is opening on start up, there must be a short cut for IE in start up

,it doesn't nessarly need to be a IE shourt cut ,it cold be another programs icon ,that's calling up IE to connect to the web

and if you changed the motherboard and it was not the same as the one Acer had in it ,then no its not really an Acer anymore ,in the bios look for disable MSI logo on bootup something like that ,

I doubt that it's caused by overheating since it hangs at identical points every single time no matter the configuration

it is possible for a computer chip to overheat almost instently ,no all are a slow buildup to a specific temp. just a thought ,if its a old pci card it might be faulty ,good luck with trying a pci-e card ,
did you try the video card in all 3 pci slots ,usually one of the slots are higher speed than other 2 [on boards I have owned ,should show in the manual]
when I google Nvidia 210 PCI all I find are pci- express cards

don't see anything out of line in the log ,did you check the startup folder in START ,

I would like to stop the BIOS POST screens from loading before Windows

you need to enter the bios/setup when booting up the computer[usuall f2 or DEL key to enter it ,] and turn on quickboot,

hi, open start ,check the startup folder for reference to IE or a program looking to go online ,you need to use a file hosting site to upload a file ,so just copy and past the content hijackthis log to a new post

The video card is obviously working or else I wouldn't be able to see that the system is hanging. Any thoughts?? PLEASE??

yes,but it could be overheating badly and causing the freezing

screenshot of dc7900 bios maybe yours is simular ,good luck

explain the question , better ,for best answers
