I cleaned my laptop screen with an ordinary glass cleaner and an ordinary cloth. After cleaning, the laptop worked well for couple of hours and then all the colors are faded. Is there any possible way to get it repaired? Or do i have to replace the screen? I am totally screwed up ... please post any suggestion that may help me ...

I even tried re cleaning the screen with pure water to remove any chemical that might have caused this but no luck.

Help me please...

Just wondering what people thought of this computer that I'm thinking of putting together for gaming, video editing, web publishing:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
500GB HD
nVidia 7600GS Graphics
4GB of Kingston RAM
Creative Audigy 7.1 soundcard

Obviously there are motherboard/DVD drives/moniters etc to consider bu I've got those narrowed down and mainly concerned with the above specs.

I recently bought a brand new harddisk together with an external casing. The problem is that my PC can't detect the new harddisk, even though my PC is able to detect the USB casing. So what is the problem? I'm using SataII harddisk.

I tried checking the Administrative tool --> Device Manager and the new harddisk is not listed there.

Any advice?

I purchased a Dell Inspiron Laptop in May 2006, which had a 1 yr warranty with it. In August of this year, the laptop just died. Everything is black. I telephoned Dell who said that its likely that the processor or motherboard is faulty but because its outwith the 1 yr warranty, they cannot do anything. I am surprised that a £1300 laptop is in this state in such a short space of time and cannot believe that it is fit for purpose. Can anyone advise?

I bought a hp laptop dv 9410 us and it came with 1 gig ram(512 x 2[5300 speed]) what i want to do is to add more memory by taking out a 512mn module and inserting a 1 gig so that i will have 1.5 gigs.I usually use my laptop for everyday use not not any digital photo editing or games, when i look at the memory avialability wiget it always says that i am using like 60 to 90% of my memory it never really goes past 90 % does that mean that i don't need more memory or just that the computer memory manager does not allow it to go past and just writes some data to the paging file instead .Can two memory modules of the same speed but different amounts be used?
