  1. Hello and welcome. I am a little confused. Power up from socket? Are you sure that it is not on? Are there any lights on the front indicating power on the hard drive?
  2. The machine may have been hacked or a virus or both. Can mam restart the machine and repeatedly tap F8 and choose safe mode? Can you enter windows that way? What part of Tyneside are you from?
  3. Hello and welcome. Please restart the computer and enter Setup/BIOS and load defaults then set first boot device to hard drive,second to CD/DVD rom and turn boot from LAN off as in disable. Save and exit now will the computer boot? Try speedfan to test the temps of your GPU: SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer
  4. It appears the Tech has installed XP on a smaller free space partition.This partition maybe so small that when you try to logon to XP the computer crashes. Not a very good PC Tech came to her house then. Now I will ask does she have the operating install disk? If she has the operating install disk I would pop it into the computer and format but during format I would delete both partitions and then format the one main larger partition. This will then give her a good clean operating system.
  5. Open AVG and click history then virus vault could you check to see if any trojans or worms etc have been quaranteened,do not worry about cookies. Addons are not that important.You can disable them all,then re-enable eachone and test to see if an addon is actualy causing this issue.
  6. Hello there. Could ypu pop in a normal keyboard and mouse and then enter BIOS and see if USB support is enabled for a USB keyboard and mouse?? Also downloading your computers latest chipset may help the USB issue,
  7. Hello there. Do you have the install disk?
  8. Hello and welcome. You may need to contact Time recovery disks. Have you tried restartting the computer and possibly press F8,F11 or F12 to see if it brings a choice menu up to boot into a hidden recovery console?
  9. Hello and welcome. Could you check in device manager to see if it is listed or if there is an unknown device listed with a yellow symbol next to it? Also what is exact make and model of this card?
  10. Hello there. i noted you have AVG there. If AVG finds an infected file it locks it away in the fault there for it appears the file has been deleted/removed. Check in AVG history to what has been listed and quaranteened. Also pay a visit to our security section as it appears possibly you have malware.
  11. Download drivers from here: Trust.com - Download drivers Also what OS is your daughter running as Trust has not caught up with the latest releases.May or may not be compatible.
  12. I would also look into how much free space you have left on your hard drive and how much RAM/Memory you have installed.
  13. Others may input however my bet is buy a new hard drive and IDE cable and then reinstall windows. As you appear to be having a lot errors for the drive.
  14. Recovering From the Hard Drive During Startup To reinstall Windows Vista and all pre-installed software and drivers: Turn on your computer, then press <F11> during 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.
  15. Also update graphics card driver and install the latest Direct X.
  16. I think you may have to replace your hard drive and then reinstall windows I am afraid to say.
  17. Now I am not saying the following is true for you but it has been known that an AV such as AVG will lock away infected files so the documnets section would appear empty due to an infection. The files are possibly still there BUT the Antivirus program has possibly locked them away as in quaranteened. Is this possible in this situation?
  18. Enter BIOS and under boot order set hard drive as first boot. Set CD/DVD rom to second boot. It appears you have set there to boot from network devices as first boot. Make sure network devices are set as last boot device or disable boot from LAN.
  19. Hello Jelly and welcome. Nice name by the way. Ok it is possible your DVD rom drive needs a driver or is broken or has some kind of issue. In safe mode right click on My Computer and scroll and open propertiies/hardware tab/device manager. Is there a yellow symbol located at the DVD rom drive? If yes try a right click on the listed drive and choose update driver.
  20. Hello and welcome. It may not be as simple as just a graphics card update you may need a new power supply,but I should think a NVIDIA gt 9000 series would fit.
  21. Does my Logitech product work with Windows 7? Answer For windows XP and Vista you enter model number: Support + Downloads
  22. Have you installed the software for the mouse to the latest version then go into settings and set the mouse up correctly.
  23. Hello and welcome to the forums.
  24. You can download and run: Belarc Advisor - Free Personal PC Audit But what you posted shows PCI-Express® (PCI-E x8) you realy need a mainboard with a x 16 slot. Also depending on what card you buy you may have to buy a new power supply.
  25. Hello again. I am not familiar with this software.Sorry. But did you download or install from CD/DVD as I recommend installing from disk. The following link may help you out unless one of the guys can jump in and help you: Installation - openSUSE
