This computer with the problem is not wireless but plugged directly into the modem. My cable provider says all my reading are...

One of my hard drive currently was divided by (system C:) 8.78G, (D:) 8.78G, (E:) 15G, and (F:) 35G (all in FAT32). Due to the second operating system as well as most drivers were installed on the drive (D:), its size became very limited. I tried to take some free space from (F:), add to (C:) and (D:), respectively, by using Norton Patition Magic 8.0. After I "Resize a Patition," "Apply," ...

After a long battle, I finally got my PC up and running by using a Windows XP professional disk. (I formerly had a bundle software.) I therefore had to rebuild the hard drive. Over the past couple of days, I noticed I was having problems with my sound. The sound tends to get choppy and at the same time I tend to get lag, like files have trouble opening, navigation is slow. I don't know ...

Are you installing the version of XP that actually came with the computer or are you installing from a XP disk (from anywhere) and trying to use the keys that came with the machine? The problem is very likely that the key you have is either a volume license key or a OEM key (which you are attempting to use to install a full version), neither of which will work. If you are getting an error and ...

For the last month or so my computer has been hanging on the windows logo (WL) screen for 5 mins. At first it starts off fast, but when the WL appears it is faint in appearance. Then the WL appears fully and hangs. I have done a virus/spy/ad check all ok, reduced the number of startup programs do defragmented. Anything else I can do to speed up the loading?

My Laptop has been displaying the same blue screen problem for a while now: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA I was wondering how I could solve this problem. Any Ideas?
