beeps then was my pirate computer?

I just got the Inspiron 3847 a few days ago.  There Win10 Home version on it.  I use the Win10 firewall.

I put my computer to sleep last night and pulled the seizure of power by the modem.  At 09:00 this morning, the computer was still asleep.  Then I heard the sound of the beep, maybe 5.  Then he stopped a beep.  I started to use the computer at 10:16.  I shoot to the top of the event viewer to see why it beeps.  He has shown a log on at 08:59.  Nobody else is there.  The power cord is still out there, when I plugged it in.  The monitor screen is never, until I woke up the computer.  I do not have a wi - fi router.  I will not sync a smart phone.  I had to connect to my account, when he awoke.  I don't know what to think of this.

I noticed since I got this computer, it takes a long time to connect to my network.  I have to unplug the cable ethernet and power cord, so that it can establish a connection.  He appears on board and says something about a connection problem.  Then he resolved, after I leave it there.  On my computer of Win8 it always says that I was on a private network.  But this computer shows that it is on a public network.  It is connected via the cable only modem.  Here, any help would be great.

Hello

If you had shot physically the power cable from the modem to your system would not have internet connection so it is quite doubtful that you have been hacked.  The tone could be a Windows task, which was scheduled for work at 09:00 (maybe a software or updates scan?)

If you pull your power cord to the modem without disabling first / transform you the connection network may be responsible for some conflicts in your system network profiles, which could cause delay in this connection system to the modem / internet.   Windows 10 has a firewall that blocks most of the traffic internet access to your system if physically turn off the modem may not be the best way to prevent access.  Simply unplug the cable network would accomplish the same thing without forcing the modem to restart continuously every time you turn it on. (depending on your ISP may take a few minutes for this modem authenticate and receive internet access)

With regard to the profile of your network, here are some links on how to set up your private in Windows 10 public network.

I hope this helps.   If you are worried about someone access to your system, it should have with some security software and you can try having to analyze the system.   It can't hurt.   And learn more about the Windows Firewall more whatever security of your software firewall has.

    I was using my computer as a default administrator, I did another administrator account but I lost my old account that has gots my data all pls help me as soon as possible

    The system hides the built-in Administrator account on Windows XP Home Edition when you create a second administrator account and she is only available for use by visiting Mode safe.  You can copy the profile of the account administrator part of your new account.

    Follow the instructions here: to copy a user profile

    Note that you can not copy a profile to or from the account that you are currently connected, if you want to copy the user profile to user B, you must be connected with the C & C user the user must have administrator privileges.

  • When I restart and press F8 on my dell Inspiron will in the Advanced Boot Options. I support then to fix my computer, but instead of reloading Windows Vista my computer turn on normally.

    problem reinstalling windows Vista operating system.

    I'm trying to reinstall the windows Vista operating system.  When I restart and press F8 on my dell Inspiron will in the Advanced Boot Options.  I support then to fix my computer, but instead of reloading Windows Vista my computer turn on normally.  How can I solve this problem.  Thanks in advance for your support.  Valerie SG

    Why you want to reinstall your PC? It could be that you don't need to reinstall Windows, and solutions you could solve, which is recommended.

    However, if you want to reinstall your Windows, it's NOT F8, F8 key belongs to Windows and he'll fix the problems. To reinstall Windows, you must use differently for Dell steps:

    And for more details, you could visit the Dell Web site and search for your model and find the method to do this, or contact technical support:

  • What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    What is the best way to transfer pictures from an old computer to a flash drive or a drive back then to a new computer?

    The easiest and most reliable I've found is to make the direct drag-and-drop method.

    (1) on the old computer, open your Windows Explorer and go to your photos.

    (2) open another Windows Explorer window and access your 'Computer' folder and in your flash drive

    (3) drag the photos to the flash drive.

    (4) take the flash drive on the new computer and drag them into your images folder

  • If I buy Photoshop CS6 (not CC) and then get a new computer, can I still use it?

    I am a user of Adobe that is not in agreement with the subscription type. I do not use the software enough to justify the long-term costs. If I bought Photoshop CS6 (not the subscription of the CC), then got a new computer, would I be able to install and use CS6 on my new computer?

    Adobe software licenses are related to you as a person, not a specific computer. You can reinstall and activate CS6 on your new computer, but there is a limit of two simultaneous activations per license (technically a work and one for home, you cannot share the second installation with someone else). It is easy to deactivate the license on the old machine, once you are done with it.

    CS6 is specific of operating system (Windows or OS X) so if you change your operating system to your new computer, you will have to ask Adobe license converted. You can do it only once.

    Hello, I bought Lightbox4, but it was not compatible with XP that was on my computer so I bought Windows 7 now it works fine, I also Photoshop Elelements 11, I was using CS3 which I like a lot, I just tried of torus - download it again and the message I have is that the installer is corrupt, what can I do? I can't afford to buy it again can you help me?

    You can download the versions inherited from here:

    Direct download links for Adobe software

    Just make sure that you are obedient to the correct installation order - older versions must be installed before new tricks, i.e. your CS3 must be installed before LR4 and PES 11. in fact, your mistake of corruption could be just that - envcountering CS3 stuff it does not understand because it is newer than himself.
