Solve : my computer is sooo messed up help please? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Okay I have a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/compaq-423425" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about COMPAQ">COMPAQ</a> that I only paid 595.00 for and it's a year and a half old. Since I didn't give all that much for it I don't want to sink alot in it getting it repaired.<br/><br/>On Thursday night I tried to download music from WalMart.com. It prompted me to download a newer version of Media Player. I did and then my computer starting shutting down on it's own in the middle of stuff. I tried running spybot and adaware and it didn't find anything. I tried to run Norton AntiVirus but the computer wouldn't stay on long enough to let it run. I did system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/restore-1187258" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RESTORE">RESTORE</a> and now I can't reinstall my Norton Antivirus..it says there is files missing. I also can't download updates from Microsoft because I keep getting error message and my internet won't work right. Alot of times I have to go to a webpage 3-4 times before the page comes up. The rest of the time I get a message that says page not found. <br/><br/>What is going on?? I have Windows XP by the way. The Microsoft site did let me run the Malicious software tool but it didn't find anything wrong either.<br/><br/>THanks<br/>AmandaAlso, I just realized it's still freezing up for no reason. I mean it permanently freezes and I have to cut it off at the tower.So do you have a Windows CD or a restore CD? It may be so screwed up that is what is necessary. After a year and a half it might be a good idea anyway. Any important data that needs to be backed up?Have you tried getting into safe mode to test the system?<br/>Does the system shut off and stay off or reboot itself?<br/>Try leaving the systemin the BIOS for an hour to test it. If it doesnt reboot then it's most likely software related.<br/><br/>If you want to remove norton then download the symnrt removal tool: <a href="http://search.symantec.com/custom/us/query.html">http://search.symantec.com/custom/us/query.html</a><br/><br/>It's norton's tool to remove itself. Then reinstall norton after a reboot.After it freezes up it will turn off and then restart on it's own. As far as I can remember it didn't come with a restore cd. There is just a program built into the computer that restores it.<br/><br/>AmandaBack up your data. It might be time.....I'll go by that Safe Mode option.<br/><br/>You can also try running a scan in safe mode if it allows you to.Can you get into Safe Mode by tapping the F8 key as you start up to remove the Norton Anti-Virus and then re-install it, if the computer will boot back to the desktop?<br/><br/>What is the drive size?<br/><br/>How much RAM is fitted?<br/><br/>Which Processor does it have?<br/><br/>Have you used the Recovery system before?<br/><br/>How about doing a clean install to a partitioned drive and then making a drive image before adding any programs?<br/><br/>That way you can restore easily without having to rely on the Compaq recovery system.<br/><br/>The same can be said for all <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/oem-583253" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OEM">OEM</a> installs.When was the last time you ran defrag?The file you downloaded may be taking up more space than necessary.

Then go into your <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/control-425557" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONTROL">CONTROL</a> panel and try to install Norton again.<br/>Good luck!!Well, you comp sounds so messed up I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/think-661001" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about THINK">THINK</a> you need a clean installation!!!

Duh-Duh The OS comes with a data base of drivers supplied by Microsoft at time of release.<br/><br/>Manufacturers have updated these drivers or released their own software since the release of XP (other OS' have drivers just not necessarily USB), hence the need to install the drivers still.<br/><br/>If it wont work without the manufacturers software it just means the OS hasn't got those necessary to run it.<br/><br/>Clear as mud!!
