I purchased a Toshiba Store Art 3 1TB External Hard Drive to secure all the important data’s  and backups on my notebook. 

It can connect to any Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 computer via a USB 2.0 port.

The unit is practically plugged and play. My computer detected my external hard drive the first time I plug this to my computer. While I was backing up all the important data’s on my pc, it went into hibernation because the battery is too low.

I could not easily turn my laptop on again so I have to wait for few minutes.

While I am trying to install a new Operating System, I got some error on my BIOS.  I got the installation disk of Windows Vista from our school. But this is a legal version. I run the disk few times but always stopped on the setup screen. I searched the net for some solutions and found out that I need to change the IDE to AHCI something, then I save and exit the changes on my BIOS.  Upon restarting, the BIOS hang immediately after I open my computer. There is nothing on my screen except for a No Signal Error. I try resetting the BIOS, it works fine again.  So I continued the installation without having any problems or error. But once I shut the computer down, I will need to try resetting BIOS again in order to make it work.

Information about my computer:

Hello there,

I am a mobile/cell phone repairer and I also have to perform tasks like data uploading in mobiles etc (usually). I have installed MS XP service pack three (3) on my office/lab PC and I am having an issue with my media card reader.

The problem I have with my media card reader is that it stops working after a while and than again use to starts working again properly automatically after a minute or so. Mean, my media card reader pauses its functionality (while working) suddenly and than after some time it restarts its motion again (after getting hanged for a while).

My laptop is creating a beeping sound on the hard drive. It gets louder and louder everyday so it is kind a scary to hear. I wonder if it can be fixed by setting it to factory defaults or if the hard drive needs to be replaced.  My laptop is not under warranty anymore.

Here are the specs of my laptop:

•     Toshiba Satellite L455
•     Celeron 2.2 GHz
•     15.6” LCD
•     3GB RAM
•     250 GB HDD

I do not think this is normal so please give me any solution. I could not find any helpful tips from my internet research. 

Thank you in advance.

There are 3 dots appearing on my screen. I tried to wipe them because I thought they are just dirt, but they are not.

They are appearing on every page that I go to.

They changed colors sometimes, but most of the time they are back.

I am using:

• Acer Aspire Notebook
• ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470
• Win 7
• 100 GB HDD
• Intel Dual Core

No clue if this is a hardware problem or not. So please let me know if you know any solutions for this.

I am afraid that it will spread all throughout my LCD screen.

Thanks.

I want to see the IP address and MAC address of the computer. As the LAN properties of the computer can only seen the IP address and the Subnet mask. When I strike the function keys (Start+R) the Run command came out. When i type the CMD command, no screen will came out. No CMD utility command came out. I restart the computer, same action was occurs. I did the step by step command just to make sure that the following command i did was correct, but still  no CMD screen came out.

What wrong with the CMD command utility?

What do you think is the main reason why it didn't came out?

Please post your answer thanks

Hello,

I was thinking if it is possible to put up an FM-AM radio on computer laptop and personal computer? 

It's a package deal right? 

The computer has its own Audio device so I think it's possible to install into the computers. Maybe you guys know about this issue and maybe you have an idea.

Just for a change, in computers it has already software installed regarding to audio device so maybe it can have FM-AM Radio frequency. If that software already out in the market?

Then maybe we can apply that one and try it to our computers.

Post your ideas here.

Hello!

This problem really drives me crazy! My programs are going crazy, my computer always hang up and some files cannot be open and has been corrupted. Even if the computer will restart, it takes too long to load up. And when I hit the "hibernate" button it takes an hour before it turned on.

Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

I think i need to reformat the HDD to be able the programs will back to normal. Can you guys help me and guide on how to reformat the hard drive?

My computer always displays incorrect time and date. I always have to correct them manually every time I turn on my pc. I’m tired doing it everyday. Can this be because my computer is too old and needs upgrade?

I hope not.

Specs:

• Dell optiplex gx100 466 celeron
• 1 GB RAM
• 80 GB HDD
• Windows XP

I’ve done research on the internet and the info I got is to change the cmos battery. I don’t know if that is correct.

I wish this is just a minor problem and that there would be an easy fix. I appreciate any solutions you might have. 

My computer run out of the battery even though the charger was plug into it the whole time I am using it. Anyway, that is not the problem since I had an idea that the charger of my laptop is really working weird this days. I am having a hard time connecting it to my laptop, its losing its connection so I have to find a good place for the adaptor to work.
