Computer P.S.A. (helpful programs, apps, and tips)

Quick question. The image on my computer screen becomes distorted sometimes, but not on a consistant basis. Anyone know how to fix this?

Check the wiring/cable that goes between your monitor and computer to make sure you don't have any loose connections. Be sure that on each side of the connectors for your cable do not have any bent or missing pins. It also wouldn't hurt to check if you've got the latest video AND monitor drivers installed on your computer.

 
Hey thanks for the advice, I checked the connections and reinstalled my drivers which seems to have done the trick for now.

I got a question. I'm supposed to be getting "through a deal" unlimited download speeds but the max I've ever had on a test file was 500 kb/s. What is stopping me from T1 type speeds if I have no cap?
Read the fine print in your contract with your broadband provider. There's no such thing as "unlimited" bandwidth. If there was, we'd all be downloading porn in seconds. :smile: In all seriousness, "speed" is a factor of A.) Your Internet connection, B.) Your router speeds (if applicable), and C.) How fast your computer is.

I wish I had an answer for that, but most likely you've got some software installed that's preventing it from shutting down properly. I'd also check for malware/spyware. And just so you know, holding down the power button on your computer for 4-5 seconds will automatically turn it off, but I do not suggest doing this often, as it could damage your computer.

i got a problem with my laptop, i just got it about a week ago everything was goin good, i only had a few programs installed aim, firfox, winamp, macafee ect.
then i installed themexp and stylesxp. and it was fine untill yesterday i started it up and i have no toolbar and i cant run any of my programs, and it wont even let me do a system restore..
any tips?


 
^ That used to happen to me. I forget what I did in particular, but I know I repaired the Winsock. I went to the Command Prompt and typed "**** fix winsock".

I forget what I put where the stars are. Google will probably have some answers.
 
^ Boot into safe mode (hold F8 while booting), and see if you can uninstall the program. Then boot into normal mode and see if that fixed it.

^ What web browser are you using? Just so that you know, some web browsers (Firefox, Opera, Safari) have a lil difficulty with Flash Player 9 and certain web sites.
