I tried to get it to turn back on for hours but it would show the blue screen after it loads when you first turn it on. After hours of playing around with I got it to turn by removing one of the sticks of ram. It works with one piece of ram but not with both. I tried switching them and it will work with one or the other but not both. I haven't changed anything on this laptop recently. Its a toshiba satellite pro m14-s405 and it has windoes xp pro on it.

I was on a train in Belgium and my laptop bag was in front of me. Then, I felt something fall behind my back on my seat, so I turned around to give it back to the person behind me. It was a cellphone, so I gave it back. Then the person behind me said that he dropped something else, so while I was looking, his partner may have snatched the laptop from in front of me?

Is this likely? Have you ever heard of this? This is what I think happened to me.

I bought a PC game from a car boot. It installed fine, but when we click on play, the screen comes up, changes to blue and the box comes up prompting me to connect to the internet. I close this box and sometimes the blue screen will disappear as well, sometimes it doesn't. The game is by ubisoft and a company called Lexis Numerique. When i try and run the game from the start menu it says " Lexis common player has encountered a problem and needs to shut down "
Any help will be appreciated as my daughter is desperate to play it and is giving me verbal gbh.

It is a 4 minute movie presentation (free to view), that describes a way people are making money using the internet. (brand new since July). It's based on internet gaming.

You probably already do this, (1 in 10 people do it everyday), but you don't get paid for it. Well, why not get paid for it?

Have a look!

Thanks!

(it's free by the way!)

My computer was infected two times by this virus. It made the bluescreen whenever I connected to the internet. I think I got it from Shareaza, now I deleted it, but I don't know it 100% that what could caused it. If you know the name of the virus and the program that can (firewall software etc.) prevent or get rid of it please tell me.

At the moment, I have my PC running off a router upstairs. The walls in my house are quite thin. Due to the need for more space upstairs, I want to put my desktop downstairs. I am also runnning two laptops wirelessly off the router which also connect to the router wirelessly upstairs. Would moving the router downstairs reduce wireless signal quality?

My computer monitor display settings were changed. The computer has been restarted so the settings cannot be reverted. On the Yahoo home page all the icons are missing. Is there some way HTML could have been turned off? Any way I can turn it back on? I tried System Restore to no avail. I have no idea what display settings were changed to cause this to happen.
