Hello and welcome. In my opinion but I am sure the guys here will say other,Atheros aint that good. To have the laptop right next to the router is not a good idea,take it to another room or further away from the router.I dont think BT routers are that good either also BT can limit connections to the router unless you pay them a higher premium to do so. Mobile phones,cordless phones,radios etc can all interfere and drop a signal. This maybe simply a case of BT limiting your connections and speed. Each wireless connection to the router will limit another connection.Some machines may get a good speed others a lower one. You have heard of capping speeds as well? Also as an example your BT router only gives you "upto" the broadband speed you pay for.This means if you pay for 10 meg speeds you may only get 5-6 meg speeds wich will help limit your speeds.If you are only on 2-4 meg BB then maybe you need to upgrade to a higher speed. NOT all connections will run at the same speed.Just because one wireless connection appears pritty fast that dont mean ALL machines connected will run at the same speed. Others I am sure will input. But known fact you never get what you pay for nore will you get the speeds manufacturers state you will.

Here is what to try: Restart the computer and on the screen it will say "? press to enter setup" ? could be F1,F2,Del or another key,press the key it tells you to.Once in BIOS/Setup it will tell you what key to load default settings. If you are unsure of the BIOS,power off the computer and remove from power outlet.Remove BIOS battery for 2 mins replace reboot. Restart the computer and repeatedly tap F8 and choose last known good config,if that dont work restart the computer and repeatedly tap F8 and choose safe mode with networking.Does that work. Is the hard drive even reconised on startup screen or in BIOS?

Fingers crossed for you babe.

Replacing a graphics card to a higher specification is not as simple as buying a new card and installing it. You appear now need to buy a upgraded more powerfull power supply with correct connections for the new graphics card.

I have not heard of connecting to another PC to repair the files maybe someone else knows how. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314477 Have you tried rebooting the computer and booting into recovery console? Thats if it has the hidden recovery console installed. This is press F11 key on startup. Packard Bell Recovery Management opens. Click Restore system from factory default. Caution: Continuing the process will erase all files on your hard drive. Click Next to continue. Your hard drive's original, factory-loaded contents are recovered. This process will take several minutes

Download and install and please post us a list of temps please: SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer

Oh that is briliant Dave. Thankyou for getting back to us.

You maybe able to buy a convertor connector.But I do not rely on these working.

You need to install the software that came with the camera and the hardware driver. Do this either via the disk supplied with the camera or go to the make and model of your camera website and under there support tab you should be able to download the software.

Hello and welcome. A simple solution that may work would be a system restore to just before you got this error. If this dont work please get back to us and we can help you further.

Hello there. You could use a software like DVD Sonic. To connect the video recorder to your computer you need a firewire 1394 connection. A way to get analog video into your computer - If you have a camcorder with a firewire (1394) connection, and you have a firewire card in your computer, you have everything you need. You can connect the audio and video output of your VHS tape player, into the audio and video input of your firewire equipped camcorder, and then connect the firewire to the computer. Doing this, you are passing the analog video through your digital camcorder, where it is converted automatically to digital format, and then forwarded onto your computer. Your VCR may not be compatiable. You could conect your video recorder to a DVD recorder via a skart lead. http://magic.sc-streaming.com/players/WhichPlayerV2.swf?campaignID=1938 You could also buy extra equipment to do the conversion. Others will input I am sure. But I think your issue maybe more of a wrong type of port/cable connection.

Restart the machine as there maybe a recovery console. Restart and press F10 I think and see if it brings up a list. Using a Recovery Console to Resolve Startup Issues - Suporte Técnico HP (Brasil - Português)

Tweed babe your hard drive may of died. A boot device can be the install disk,hard drive even a floppy disk drive.

DSTM you could be right,I am so busy sorting out others peoples personal issues I may of messed up there.Thankyou for correcting me.

Dont be scaird of the BIOS. Just look at the screen and see if it says press a certain key to load defaults.

Or try this: Restart the machine and it will say on the black screen "To enter setup press?" This usaly is F1,F2 or Del. Press the key it tells you to. Once in there usaly F10 key loads defaults. Load defaults and save and exit.

Hello and welcome.

You need to get a double IDE cable and put both CD/DVD drives on the same cables and then both hard drives on another cable.

Well I dont understand the washing up liquid choice if you could explain this thought please? As this would just break the laptop. If the laptop is still under warrantee it should realy go back to the shop for repair. Try entering BIOS/Setup and load default settings and see if that helps. It is possible your hard drive iis broken. But as I said if it is under warrantee I do not recommend taking it apart due to it will then be void.

No,it converts the hard drive into an external hard drive so it can be plugged in via USB to another computer or laptop.

Can you ask a friend if you can fit the hard drive into there computer internaly as a slave? Then see if there computer picks it up? Does the drive show in disk management if yes what does it show it as? Does the drive show in device manager and have to attempted a right click and update the driver?
