Yes, the monitor has onscreen display. I also didn't realize that my video port was connected to the motherboard, it's not a separate card. Does this mean that the motherboard would need to be changed in order to correct the problem ?

Motherboard ,with onboard video can also have an AGP video slot to upgrade the video to something better.You can also add a PCI video card ,You could look around for a old 2meg PCI card [a bout 5 bucks ] just to troubleshoot computer.,The onboard video will need to be disabled to do either of these .

If you have onboard video ,it could be that you toasted the Board ,or just the video chip .

Hi everyone,

How are you doing?

Well I FINALLY got almost everything moved over from the old computer system to the new computer system & here's my problem.

I was using OE b4, so nothing has changed as far as e-mail programs go.

Now what's happening is my default e-mail address Michelle@exoticpublishing.com doesn't seem to be working properly or I'm thinking it's the whole OE that's screwed LOL

Another e-mail address in my e-mail identity list seems to be taking over... Business@exoticpublishing.com & I don't know why. I'll reply back to an e-mail or forward an e-mail that was written from the Michelle or another of the various e-mail addys I have, & it will switch to Business@exoticpublishing.com in the "from" field. It happens the minute I hit "reply".

This has started to cause many problems for me b/c people don't recognize the e-mail addy, my yahoo posts come back undeliverable b/c it doesn't recognize the e-mail addy, etc.

The only other time I have encountered this problem is when I was testing out new spam programs that had to be DLed onto my computer. I am NOT testing any spam software & I haven't in years.

Does anyone know what the problem is?

Thanks a ton & I hope everyone is having a great wknd.

Hi, you have a Peper infection

Download the removal tool :

Reboot and run it a second time while connected to the net.

First, download LSPfix here: http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm
Launch the application, and click the "I know what I'm doing" checkbox.
Check all instances of lspak.dll (and nothing else), and move them to the "Remove" pane.
Then click Finish.
