  • Computer runs slowly and fraud calls

    Original title: computer running slow. Clean.

    Hello

    My problem now is my slow computer at startup upward and the frezzing up from time to time. I received a call in June a company in India that my computer had some questions and what not and they had a package for $199.99 a year to keep it clean and smooth running. Well, my contract is over and now I get another call from another simuilar to the last company telling me that the reason why my computer is slow and frezzing up is because there are hackers hacking in and using my manufacturing system can work slowly and for package $149.99 a year they can clean up all this and get the pirates on and my system running smooth new.

    Sounds like the song and dance, except that I don't want to dance with them this time.

    Can you help me sort this issue and if I have to buy some kind of package, I want to keep him here in the United States instead of going abroad. I'm not that catchy with computers and don't get internal not with them. I'm 62 and good enough old school when it comes to such things. They also said my McAfee Security was not working, but I receive regular advice on the updates he says is is me.

    Can you help me or direct me to someone or place where I can get help. I live in Houston, Texas.

    Thank you very much.

    Hey Oscar,.

    These are the calls of fraud which you. Microsoft does not make that neither have they partners that do and don't they hire contractors or individuals or even to find volunteers to do. There are probably thousands of these companies out there do every day - we get two or three posts like this (or more) each day ask about it.

    Check out these links from Microsoft regarding the calls of fraud:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/securitytipstalk/archive/2010/03/09/Don-t-fall-for-phony-phone-tech-support.aspx

    http://blogs.Windows.com/Windows/b/WindowsSecurity/archive/2011/06/16/dealing-with-fake-tech-support-amp-phone-scams.aspx

    Never encourage such calls and never buy these items/packages they offer. Do not provide all the details and give access to anyone claiming to be Microsoft or Microsoft Partners.  Microsoft calls only to the customer who have contacted by telephone, e-mail and chat and have a number of Microsoft Service request or Service for a reported problem.

    For problems with the computer freezing and slow, we have some items from Microsoft that you can follow.

    I have a xps M1710 laptop. I normally use a docking station and the internal network card works fine when the laptop is in the docking station. But now when I remove the laptop from the docking station for the network adapter is disconnected.

    I know that it stops when the battery mode to save energy, but it is always closed when I connect to a power supply for laptop. I tried the plug before you turn on the computer and it does make a difference.

  • Tecra A5: Publisher 2003 is running slowly and not all images will display

    I have a problem with the performance of publisher 2003 when the default printer is set to an aculaser Epson C900 since a laptop Toshiba Tecra A5.
    The editor runs slowly and has not all images. This works if the default printer is set to a different printer.
    This problem does not affect other mobile brand.

    Publihser maybe sort of speak to the printer driver and clash with another application or installed driver for the Toshiba.

    Hi Simon

    You will be very happy if someone can give you a precise answer. As far as I know, he has no problems known with Microsoft products.

    If you see the Toshiba download page you will find instructions for facilities document stating the software preinstalled on your device. It is really not known to me that some of them can cause this strange problem. I recommend contacting Microsoft support because they have more experience with own products.

    Sorry but I have no other comment on your topic.

    Good luck!

  • Appellants are cut off when leaving a voicemail message

    I'm having a problem when I call DID number of the person to the PSTN destination and record a message that is longer than 40 seconds, the audio is cut roughly the second 40 mark. If I call internally for an ip phone registration is not cut.

    I have several locations with centralized/CallManager unit on the host site. It seems only to happen now a remote location. When I call a DID and it sounds through the unit, I see that the port in monitor status of the unit said it saves the message and it allows me to leave a message up to 300 seconds without disconnecting me, however, when I go to listen to the audio message gets cut off after about 40 seconds. If I leave a voicemail to 60 seconds long, I'll hear the VM for 40 seconds and silence for another 20 and then I get the unit "If you want to save this message press 2,... ». If the unit is not cut me or I'm not get disconnected to the PSTN, just the audio destination stops. I can duplicate this every time.

    Here is some background info:

    -VM unit 4.0.2 only

    CallManager - 3.3.4sr2

    -TSP 7.0.2 (I think) I can check a second time if necessary.

    -2620XM gateway gateway router running IOS c2600-ipvoice - mz.123 - 14 T 3 .bin voice and communicate with CallManager use MGCP.

    -Calls come in the 2620XM router via ISDN PRI.

    I don't have the opportunity to reboot the router, servers CallManager or the unit still. I will start by restarting the router because it seems only to happen to this place, but I wanted to see if anyone out there has seen cela before or he could offer some advice.

    Thanks in advance for any information.

  • Screen turns black and shuts off when wakes up Portege Z830 - 11M

    Hi all

    Anyone know what could be the reason for the screen goes black and turns off when the laptop wakes up?
    The laptop is Toshiba Portege Z830 - 11 M W7HP, purchased in September.

    The problem started shortly after I bought the laptop, but gradually began with a period of 1-2 seconds black screen whenever I tried to wake the portable computer of fashion 'sleep'. He didn't look like a regular part "blackout" of the wake-up process so I just tried to ignore it, but it started to happen more often recently. It got really worse after two months of use and the black screen two or three times until I'm at the login screen. The error was also difficult to re-create because it was random. Sometimes, the screen went black once sometimes twice or just blinked for a fraction of a second.

    Yesterday, I worked during the day and at night it turned really bad. The screen went black several times, whenever I went back to work after a short break.
    I changed the laptop off when I'm done, but when I turned back on it in the morning, the screen was just black. I tried to use the touchpad, but it is only the screen on the gray.

    Can anyone suggest what to do?

    So finally that cannot start the laptop is Hmm normal?
    It would be interesting to know if this help:
    -Battery adapter and ac removal
    -Press and hold power button do this for 30 sec
    -Then reconnect both sides.
    Turn on the laptop?

    If this is not good enough, you're in trouble I guess its hardware related issue and in this case you must service help

    You have the screen image out to another monitor (one that is not plugged in fact). How you pass to the internal laptop display varies, but most cell phone companies make a combination of keys, such as Fn + F6 or something.  Looking for a symbol that looks like a monitor.  It is usually color coded and requires activation of a Fn key.
