My laptop goes down

Over the 5 days I had to format and reinstall a new OS on my HD 5 times. After 30 to 45 minutes of perfect use whenever the laptop simply crashes and I get an error that reflects a software or hardware failure. Evidence suggests that I get from people, it is that the hard drive has failed. Can anyone think why this happened only once I formatted it? That's what left me speechless! It was working perfectly before. I have to be sure this is a prob with the HD before going out and buying a new one. Thank you

Hello

software or hardware failure? Can you post the error message says?

    Hello

    I understand you very well. For me it s a shock if 90 IE Windows would appear on my small laptop screen. SHOUT OUT! : O

    However, have you installed any 3rd party applications that can open the windows?

    I think that this is not a normal state of the system and if it appears the days of view therefore, you should try roll back BONE to the beginning.

    In addition, you can try to check in the MSCONFIG what background process runs on the operating system. If there are some very strange processes you must turn it off and you must remove the Autorun.

  • Laptop goes down to chance as if he lost power and restarts

To do this, so, even when the pc has just begun and the window just started started. Ran, a bunch of pre test with improved test mode and all tests passed.

    Hello

    In this case, there might be 2 possibilities...
    1 - the motherboard may be problem
    2 - operating system failure.

    To Find out if this is the problem with the card mother or not, turn on the computer immediately keep taping F2 on Dell Logo. You will get a screen (Bios) BACK. do not do anything out there just wait and watch, if they stay off then the problem is with the motherboard or heat sink or fan system, if it is not the case, then backup the computer HARD drive and Re install the operating system or make the recovery of the Dell data safe local Option. Also you can run the test of P. S. A. on the computer, I.e. keep the Fn key power on the computer, the computer will work through series of test, just follow the instructions...

    Hello

    I have a Samsung laptop with pre-installed Windows 7 Home.   Recently it has been to break if I leave it on without doing anything (even if itunes plays) for 15-20 minutes.  I realized that at first when the computer has been 'awakening' of the screen of sleep or sleep.  Then I changed the settings never sleep and no screen saver.  However, this does not do anything.

    Forget the RAM Kingston and return it for a full refund, if you can.

    Spec'd correct., tested and reliable Mac RAM DO can be bought online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory, directly from the site Crucial (crucial.com) or OWC (macsales.com).

    Any other RAM from other sources and manufacturers (except OWC or Crucial) is questionable, at best.

  • When windows update is running on my machine (and updates), my screen goes down to 1024 x 768.

    When windows update is running on my machine (and updates), my screen goes down to 1024 x 768.  I have a HD card of ATI all-in - Wonder and an Acer X203H LCD with DVI connection.  If I use system restore to go back, I can get higher resolutions, but Windows does its thing and I'm back at low resolution.  I can't change the settings manually as 1024 watch as the highest res available to the general public when this happens.  There must be some weird conflicts.  I tried to update the drivers, that made no difference.  Is there a setting Aero or the conflict at stake here?  In the past, I've had trouble with a display of balnk and I had to go back to the 2008 version of the driver to get things to work.  From there, whenever I update, I can keep high resolution, but after the last windows update (security of IE8 and much smaller pack that was released on March 28-30), it dates back to 1024 x 768 again.  Control Panel and catalyst control the two show that as more high resolution available for refresh rate. Suggestions?

    Change your update settings to find the problem, we > then right-click on > hide.

    And don't do hardware drivers through Windows updates.

    Find them in the equipment or the system direct manufacturer.

    Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista

    Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Vista will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

    Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  • How do you get alerts if your mail server goes down?

    I have send and text alerts sent via my server Exchange but is it built to send alerts in case our email server goes down? Foglight has a mechanism to send alerts that do not require a mail server?

    Hello

    Yes... Make sure that the failover on monitoring of Server SMTP is selected in the Config > Admin > SMTP settings area. This will continue to route alerts through our mail server, in which case your crashes.

  • 851W w / WPA - PSK - Interface goes down.

    Hello

    I tried to configure WPA - PSK on the router 851W. I followed the instructions using the SDM and properly active wireless WPA - PSK network. I have connected a MacBookPro to the network wireless, with all the features, then after a minute or two, separates the client and Dot11Radio interface goes down.

    I have install a network open without any connectivity problems. I have search the net and forums of Cisco without success for a solution to this problem. Here is the link to the guide: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps380/products_configuration_example09186a00808acf2f.shtml

    Any ideas what might be causing the radio interface down with WPA - PSK configured?

    Thank you.

    For some it's IOS version WPA - PSK, which proved to be intermittent. Cisco CSCeh90412 bug describes it. Try to update the IOS version and check.

  • My laptop is down the internet connection several times daily.

    Internet connection

    My laptop is down the internet connection several times daily. I can usually restore the connection to solve the problem. It restores the connection for a while but always says the same thing. «A network cable connected correctly isnot or can be broken and also problem with wireless adapter access point.» I live with 3 other people and we all use the same router and they have no problems.

    Also, my computer has some weird pink points at the top of the home screen. So sometimes when I pull up to early or a photo or something there are pink lines on the photos. No idea why this is happening and how to fix it?

    I discovered that I had the same problem of the abandonment of the Internet with HP envy. I went on the Intel site and found that they had a fix for the problem I do not know the wireless card you have that I go to your site of NIC and check and see if they have a patch for your network card. After I installed the patch for my NIC my problem disappeared. HP sent me an email with the appropriate also fix.
