Laptop overheating - what should I do?
Hi guys. My laptop is about 3 years. It's a laptop Medion wam2040. It has only a small vent to the rear left with no nearby usb port. Now the laptop on its edge on my lap, he still struggles to maintain the operating temperature and it works 100% of the time. If I put the phone down for a few seconds or if it runs for quite a long time TI stop. I don't want to replace the laptop, but I would like to ask what are the options I have for the cooling of the laptop or what changes I could make or buy. Appreciate any help on this! Thanks :)
Take it to a local and trusted computer repair shop, not a retail chain store and have them cleaned the inside of it.
You can generate a lot of dust inside after 3 years.
See you soon.

My computer crashed while I was able to cancel the registration of my copy of Windows 7. I would like to move to my laptop. What should I do for this (a number to call, etc.) Thank you!
Jut a little word. If it is a retail version of Windows 7, you should be OK, but if it's a version of Windows 7 OEM then the license died when the machine does.

There are several accounts (4) on this laptop. My account is the only one who won't play the sound. I've checked everything. In the menu START, it won't let me touch the volume; This is setting the lowest. Sound card? I have no previous list, can I install Microsoft for free? I can hear the computer connect power and hear the pop ups, but no music, talk, videos, etc.
Given that yours is the only account with this problem, it is probably better considered as a corrupted profile. Drivers are not the problem, as other users have no problem with the sound. In the interest of recovery, deal with your current connection as a "corrupt profile" and follow the instructions in the following article.
"How to recover damaged Windows XP user profile"

My old laptop is now very slow performance, no doubt because it is hopelessly cluttered with unwanted stuff, viruses etc.. So I have tried various methods of cleaning without success, I decided to reformat (all data on it has been transferred to a new laptop) and start from scratch by reinstalling Windows Vista Home (installed when I bought it). But no installation disc has been delivered, although the product no key. is located on the underside of the laptop. What should I do? I could ring you, but I don't have a land line, and a long call on my cell phone would probably cost a fortune. It would be great if you were ringing me to talk me through the process (07760 101610)

Hello
Sorry, this is not Microsoft and we don't do phone calls that we are for the most part, Windows users help each other here...
Here are the different ways that you can reinstall Vista.
See which is more easy for you.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.
Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.
If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
"How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/84488-activate-Vista-phone.html

What should I include in my box for repair?
I plan to send my laptop HP ENVY 17 repair center because there may be something wrong with the fan. There is a grinding/humming noise. I received my box today. What should I put in the box? Some people say not to send in the power cord, adapter or battery if your laptop turns on fine. Others say sending in battery, power cord and adapter if it's a laptop. What should I do?
Hello lisaisaduck,
I see that you have questions about what to send in the repair area.
With what you describe as the question you shouldn't send the battery or charger in the box. If the repair center needs to turn on your computer, they will have the necessary equipment.

When I put my cell phone battary trolling the games what should I do?
Games run perfect when I put plugged in, but when I play on games battary became late?
Help me.
Hello @XxHamodyGamerX,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! You have come to the right place to ask questions, find solutions and get help from others in the community!
I read your post on game performance below of your DESIRE for computer laptop-15-ae101nx then on the battery and wanted soft hand for you.
This document should take you in making adjustments to the different systems of power supply on the system. Battery power, it is probably defined by default on energy saving , which will reduce the performance of the system in order to save energy and extend the time between charges.
Microsoft also has very detailed information here on different powers available plans.
Please let me know if this information helps you solve the problem by marking this post as accept as Solution, this will help others easily find the information they seek. In addition, by clicking on the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thank you!

My laptop screen is blackened or shaded, but to work. Something is darkening up shortly after departure. What should I do?
The backlight that run on the screen is burned. This isn't something that you can fix because it involves disassembly of the computer and parts are not generally available. It's a hardware problem. You need to take your computer to a repair store to fix this problem. If the computer is in power saving mode, that there is no display at all, shines a flashlight on it would reveal a slightly glossy, empty, black screen.
