on my key board when I try to type a letter that has a number or a symble on it it type the number or the symble how to fix this?
Make a lot of assumptions here...
Keyboards only I know who have numbers/symbols on the letter keys would be a laptop or netbook without a numeric keypad. Assuming that this is the case, the most likely cause is that you have the 'digital Locks' active. To return to a regular keyboard, you must disable the NumLocks. On a laptop, how to do varies from a Builder (in other words, if that doesn't work, download or consult the manual of your computer)... but usually this is done by pressing the "FN" key at the bottom of the keyboard while pressing the 'Num Lock' key, which is usually on the box at the top right of the keyboard.

My laptop has been telling me that I have a low disk space.
Hi, I had my laptop for quite awhile and I usually download a lot of things. But lately, my pc has been telling me that I have said low space. I clicked clicked on the info box, and he takes me on the cleaning disc and tells me to delete files, I don't need. The box were, he shows me the files... contains all files to be deleted. The only "file I can 'delete' is my trash! The necessary dick cleaning is the HP TOOLS and it is said (4.32 MB of free space of 3.95 GB) and it has a glowing red bar. Im very confused on whats happening and im praying this is not not a virus!
Original title: AGH! No space?
The HP_TOOLS partition is where HP puts its system Diagnostics and other programs such as QuickWeb and QuickLook if they are installed on your system. You should not put your files there.
On my HP laptop, the only things in there are a folder named Hewlett-Packard and a few files from HP.

There were a couple of keys as a code or something and the screen oriented vertically, but I press back horizontally? I don't really know which keys have been pressed since it was an accident of my little sister. Help, please.
Try to press Ctrl + Alt + up ARROW, or try Ctrl + Alt + and a different key to the arrow.
If this does not work: right click on the empty desk > graphics > Rotation.
See you soon.

If you are using a desktop computer look on the monitor for an automatic reset button

try going to your graphic card manufacturers site or computer and are looking for the driver download section
Search your computer or graphics card model number based on what you have and download and install the latest graphics drivers for vista
then try to make the screen of solution of problems

The driver is the problem, and the Message says that the pilot had not, but he recovered and that's all he set up and I can't click on the Message for more information because he Disappaer out of the taskbar and the game just guard shot me. And I don't know what to do to solve the problem. I don't know if I need a better video card or if my license is the main problem?
Or the other of your machines use Intel's integrated graphics? If so, maybe that's the problem. Sims 2 would do the same for users with these types of graphics cards.

Original title: my serial number
The serial number on the bottom of my laptop has been rubbed off. I can find it somewhere in the system?
Hello
If the operating system is preinstalled, as it appears as the product key sticker was on the bottom of the laptop, NO, you will not find a product key that you can use for any purpose useful in your system.
The only product key you would find in your system is the manufacturer factory Installation product key that is used for multiple facilities only during the original production.
If you want to reinstall the operating system, contact the manufacturer and ask him either send you recovery disks to reinstall the operating system, what they should do for a small cost and also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your laptop to do the same thing, which is to reinstall the operating system.
None of these methods relocation normally requires that you insert a product key when reinstalling.
See you soon.
p.s., serial number (SN: xxxxx) is to do with the identification number to the manufacturer if you ever contact them so that they can search for details of your laptop and there's nothing to do with the product key.

When I connect to Windows 7 after my laptop has been asleep, the Welcome screen will block for always (10 + minutes). It does not every time, but maybe once all 5 or 6 times and it's happened lately. I can just shut the computer off and the newspaper with no problem after starting it upward, but I'm afraid, there may come a time where it does not work.
I had this problem since I got my computer 2 months ago so I don't think it's related to what I have installed. Has anyone else encountered this problem and has found a way to fix it? Is this a common bug in all of Windows 7?

My Satellite laptop has been freezing randomly
Hello
I've seen a lot of posts on the subject, but no solution. So my laptop has been freezing at random the day I bought it. Today it happens much more often, this becomes ridiculously boring.
Is there a way to fix this?
> Once again, there was a notification that emerged after one of those who freeze soemthing mean in the sense of "there was a problem with amd (graphics card)?"but it was resovled."" It's all updated however.
This notification comes from the graphics card driver. It might be possible that there is a problem with the graphics driver or with the graphics chip.
Try to install the latest driver for Toshiba page. In case this doesn't help, recommend you to contact the service agents to check the hardware partsBut the previous user's right, its really hard to talk about issues that put t always appear or are difficult to reproduce

Operating system on my laptop has been tampered
Laptop has been restarting randomly, I had checked it by a technician at Staples and I was told there is no hardware problems and run the system recovery disk. I ran the system recovery disk and got the message that it could not be recovered because the operating system (Vista 32 bit) has been altered. I hope that a full installation of a new operating system will solve the problem because it's the same thing to my XP desktop.
Hello
Thanks for the above information.
1. what type of recovery you try using the recovery discs?
I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.
Method 1: Try to boot in safe mode and check if the same problem occurs.Method 2: If the problem does not exist in Mode without failure, then try to put your computer in a clean boot state.
By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.
For your reference: ways to improve your computer's performance
Optimize Windows Vista for better performance
If issues exist with the recovery dvd, then I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the computer.
Hope this information is useful. -
