first thing to ever try is a system restore. start>all programs>accessories>system tools>system restore.. best try it in safe mode as yours is freezing....to get to safe mode tap f8 at start up then choose safe mode kind regards danzil

very bad advice.turning off system restore has now wiped out any system restore points you had,,,,now you have re-enabled it will start back from then.. i have some work to do at the mo,i will think of a couple of ideas then post back kind regards danzil

when the laptop slows do you here extra fan noise....is the laptop hot at the time.... what is the system cpu doing in task manager at the time.....and processes. the places to check for heat is around the cpu fan (will be hot but not enough to scold you) and around the hard drive (should not be excessivly hot). let me know maynardvdm what is the model of lappy kind regards danzil

yes maynardvdm is correct,you can just replace the sound cad and then disable th eon board audio chip in the bios... can you tell me have you check the front audio connection on your case,shouldbe a black door (flap) at the bottom of your blk/silver case....... where did you get the driver from.... this is the correct driver for oyur pc http://www.e4me.com/support/product_support.html?cat=Desktops&subcat=T-Series&model=T2200 its under drivers then audio i believe. let me know if that helps or not. kind regards danzil

a couple of things you can try are: going to start>control panel>system>device manger then browse down to "universal serial bus controllers" expand them and right click them and click "uninstall" do this to all USB's then go to the top where it says your computer name.right click there and then left click"scan for hardware changes" this will then re-install your universal serial bus controllers. now try to install the printer... also another thing is the print spooler may not be running.....right click "my computer"then click "manage" now go to services in the left, then "services"in the right column. now scroll down "to print spooler".. right click it and then click restart,or start if it isnt running...now see if the printer is shown......if that worked then go back to the print spooler and double click it and make sure it is set to start "automatic". i hope that help kind regards danzil

i have replied to this issue in the windows forum...may be an idea to remove the other one to "hardware".. kind regards danzil

can you get safe mode....try booting from the cd and going into recovery console... you may have a corrupt boot.ini. or mbr. we can try a repair of these,if that fails a repair install of xp may be the best option. let me know if you need any more help... i have limited knowledge with free dos and linux alike but hey i will try. kind regards danzil

thank you very kind of you. kind regards danzil

glad to help,hope i was usefull maynardvdm kind regards danzil

ok can you give us your system specs,,,ie operating system,cpu,memory etc. what was you doing previously,have you changed any hardware lately. try doing a system restore firstly....go to stat>all programs>accessories>system tools>system restore. restore your pc back to a date previous to your issue... this process is relativly quick and usually sorts issues like yours out... but if it doesnt then rebooted back into safemode with networking and post back... may be an idea to check "event veiwer" as well right click "my computer" then click "manage"then click the plus sign near "event veiwer" check in system and software for red errors copy the error details and post them back (if there is any) this will then help us diagnose your issue more easily... do you receive any "blue screening at all".. i look forward to your reply kind regards danzil

hi spanish89 try going to start > run and type in %windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe this will re-install ie7 may ask for your cd... see if that helps if not you could try a system restore start>all programs>accessories>system tools>system restore choose a date previous to your issue and restore it back to then. then go to windows updates and check for all updates,and install them. On ebay whn i try to list item for sale the whole listing is stuck in some wierd html and urls format, and it says i should ugrade java.. (i have the latest version of java aready and have re-installed that 2x aslo!!) pleasee explain a little more,can you take a screen shot or copy n paste what it says. kind regards danzil

hi mr pipes3 did you buy the same fan as what was previously installed. YES you need to put gel (thermal paste) on the cpu,so the heatsink can dissipate (mmm spelling) the heat away correctly... as for the screen flickering,,did you have to remove the lcd with lid,to replace the fan...it may be worth resitting the cables from the screen to the board......other possiblities are a faulty inverter board. but it doesnt sound like it... also the touchpad (synaptics) cable may have came loose or may have become torn,you may want to check them.. please explain in as much detaile xactly wha tyou did to replace hte fan..i can then assist you further. kind regards danzil

hi browse to c:\program files and see if it is in there,,,if so delete the folder it is in......if you can not delete it due to "access denied" then boot to safe mode and try again. kind regards danzil

it looks like it may be registry mechanic,,this should be able to be removed using "add n remove".. loads of those items can be disabled usin gmsconfig>startup they are not needed to be loaded at pc startup.. is this an acer machine??? i would remove (not uninstall). PC Pitstop Optimize Scheduler WinampAgent remoteControl IMJPMIG8.1 the acer epower entries can also be removed IF you do not use the fancy buttons for web,email etc and if you do not use epower management,or grid vista i hope that helps kind regards danzil

browse to that tree in regedit and see what the name of it is...... list everything in that tree and post it back,,i will tell you then what can be removed kind regards danzil

well it could be an issue with the actual audio chip...is the motherboard under warrenty..can yu get it exchanged for the same model. is the graphics ok,or does that have any issues.....was the board bought in the uk...(i take it your from the uk). kind regards danzil

what is the graphics card you are using,,,noticed you mantioning about you may have changed it.... does the card need a sepaerate power source.....have the drivers been updated for this.... your pc definatly meets the spec for it Minimum Recommended CPU Pentium 3, 800 Mhz Pentium 4, 2.0 Ghz RAM 512 MB or better 512 MB or better Graphics Radeon 8500LE, Geforce MX400 or better FX5700 / ATI 9200 OS Windows ME / 2000 / XP Windows 2000 / XP ISP DSL Cable / T1 Network Card 10 Mbps 100 Mbps / 1000 Mbps : NIC Hard Drive 900 MB 900 MB have you been on there web site to see if there is any uodate patches http://www.warrock.net/ kind regards danzil

have you tried using a lense cleaner..... if that doesnt work then you can strip it and clean it yourself and ,you may be able to pot tweak it...to provide more power to the lense...but i wouldnt advise it...drives are so cheap now it may be easier to just replace... kind regards danzil

have you reset internet explorer settings to default..just in case in is a dodgy cookie or cetificate of some sort.. tools>internet options>advanced give that a try.. thanks for the mention about the flooding,,yes it is very bad but getting better.i live in tewkesbury which has been the worst hit..my work is under water. yeh really really sucks...no water from the taps.electric steady for now...and water supplys are almost running out too. oh well. kind regards danzil

no probs.im glad you sorted it out...and thanks for replying this may help others in your situation kind regards danzil

go to start>run type in msconfig...in the start up tab can you list all entries in there and then post them back to us.... maybe we will be able to stop it at startup and then delete it. kind regards danzil

have you installed all the drivers for your motherboard...... what is the cpu usage like when you can finally get into task mangaer.. is there any processes using more resources then the rest. kind regards danzil how slow is uber slow...20 -30 secs or minutes

what is the website you can not get on.........need to know that,,is it a secure web site.. your hijack this log isnt bad at all i dont think....i dont usually have a look at these logs....the only thing in there is a programme called registry booster.....be carefull with any registry tinkering software kind regards danzil

hi sorry for the late response i have been under water,,,live in gloucestershire..... the reg file doesnt need to be removed it will not have adverse effects on your system at all..... sorry cant stop electric could go out any time kind regards danzil will log back in asap.

you could try running crap cleaner..this will remove cookies and temp files....aslo try adding the web page to your trusted sites list...get crap cleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com... try these danzil
