  Original title: XP start help please...

  ... are to be turned off & on several times before monitor lights. Comp seems to start OK but the problem is with the screen. Do I have to make a boot disk & if so - HOW?

  Hello

  ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

  ·         You get the error message?

  ·         Did you check the connection of the cable to the monitor?

  ·         Have you tried to update to the latest graphics card and motherboard chipset drivers?

  First, try to connect your monitor to a well known PC, maybe the old laptop that you use now. If the monitor works, the problem is with the video card in your PC. If the monitor does not light, the monitor. It is usually cheaper to buy a new monitor that in order to be an old repaired, unless the monitor is still under warranty.

  Try connecting a monitor well known to your PC. If the monitor works, your old monitor is fried and needs to be replaced.

  If your monitor works when connected to another PC, the problem could be your video card. First, and then you turn on your PC, the power and cooling case fans run they. If they do not, it could be the power supply.

  Then, open the computer case. Before you do anything inside, unplug the power supply.

  IMPORTANT! Touch any metal part of the computer case to connect to the PC. A single static spark can destroy computer circuits.

  If the video card is the type of card that plugs into a slot on the motherboard, remove the screws or attached at the top of the card, remove the card, to manipulate the card by the edges to avoid disturbing the circuits on the card, carefully and re - install the card. Sometimes simply reinstalling the card corrects the problem.

  If this does not work, replace the video card with a card of similar type. Perhaps now is the right time for an update of video card.

  If the video card is integrated into the motherboard, you can install a new card in one of the PCI slots on the motherboard. When the PC starts for the first time, go into the bios and disable the onboard video.

• installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

  installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

  Wired or wireless - is usually not serious unless the wireless can get more interference.  If the keyboard is close to the receiver which is connected to the computer and you get the strikes hurt - my suggestion is to try first the keyboard on another computer.

  To do this, * not * require you to install specific drivers.  Simply unplug the combo of a computer and in the other and see if the keyboard works correctly.  Then, you can troubleshoot from there.

• Move the window off screen at the top

  Title suggests, how can I do? I can move my windows off screen on the sides and at the bottom, but I can't top

  Thank you

  Hello

  Thanks for the update.

  I'm really sorry to say this, but there is no option were you can resize your window (not resizable) at the top of the screen. You can move a resizable window to the right or the left by dragging the window to the left or right of your desktop.

  There is another option were you can display multiple windows side by side as requires it.

  • Open all the windows and right click on the taskbar, select the option see the stacked windows or Show Windows side by side

  See the link below to resize the window of windows 8, as suggested by Robert Aldwinckle
