• How can I check if I have a virus in the BIOS and what is the difference between formatting and full format in Windows 7?

  Hello

  Recently I found a rootkit on my computer, especially rootkit.tdss.tdl4. Of after I read that I got one of the best!

  I have two questions:
  Firstly - how can I check if my BIOS was hit without blinking? I read that this Trojan horse could have started exactly from the BIOS, and very likely to stand again after doing a clean install. I have a laptop HP seems like flashing procedures require to disconnect the disk hard - is this true for laptops?

  Second, is how I format to ensure that clean the MBR? I have Vista and want to upgrade to Windows 7. I have Windows 7 upgrade ultimate disc that can do a custom install which should format entirely. Tell me if I think too old school here but should be low (or zero) format is required? From what I've read, the function of full format of Windows 7 should be as powerful as the low level. is that correct? I don't mind the overtime work as long as I don't have any problems (at least with this Trojan) later. I also fear that upgrading Windows 7 disk might not have all the features of formatting as a full version, which is a nonsense?

  Thank you very much for your help!

  operating system 64-bit to 32-bit operating system, it's because the processor went from 32 bit to 64 bit?

  I know that 64-bit is faster and more efficient than the 32-bit processor, but why os 32/64 bit too? OS working elbow-to-elbow with processors?

  No matter what AMD processor once sempron will be 64-bit.

  (2) No. 32-bit operating systems were once popular is that 32-bit processors cannot run 64-bit operating systems (although the 64-bit processors can run 32-bit operating systems.

• How can I check the version of the firmware on the optical drive on Satellite P200

  I am a Satellite P200 and my Tempo suggests to download an update of the firmware to TO35, which only works if I TO33/34, how can I check that I have? I tried searching on my machine, but I guess that the firmware is not the thing to appear in searches. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

  Hi guys

  > How to check the firmware
  You can use a 3rd party program like Nero to burn.
  Nero presents the version of current firmware of CD/DVD players

  The firmware TO33 or the TO34 should already exist on the TS-L802A drive.
  Please check if you have exactly the same drive. TO35 firmware only works with the TS-L802A.

  If you have an older version of fimware as TO33 then please post here again!

  *@Voodoo*
  You really have a TS-L802A drive. ? How did you check the firmware version?

  There is not "later" version of XP - XP there and there is that Service Packs added to it.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• How can I check my Mac mini for spyware and other viruses

  How can I check my Mac mini for software spyware and other forms of virus? Recently, I received an electronic invoice which seems to come from Apple on a purchase that I did not. Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  My Mac was purchased in 2011 and runs on OS X El Capitan (version 10.11.6).

  Kind regards

  Receive a fraudulent e-mail for a purchase confirmation, you did not is a very common scam. Remember that you are not misled by providing personal information solicited by this e-mail.

  Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.

  No harm will come of the fact that you wrote. Fraudulent Web sites that are made to appear as legitimate those who are specially designed to convince you to reveal personal information. If you don't have that, no further action is necessary or justified. Do not install anything, no matter the source or the apparent popularity, in response to one such scam. To do this would be the first step in a path well worn to the misery.

  On the other hand, if you were tricked into providing personal information (like your Apple ID and password) you will need to change your password on Apple ID. Please write back for instructions.
