Laptops & Notebooks - March 2007

I tried cleaning it and I don't know what to do. If i can get rid of that noise my laptop would be in perfect shape. I am on my laptop alot and sending it back to get it fixed takes to much time. I brought a dust cleaner in a can and it still makes noise. When its really powering up it's even louder.. What can I do to stop this noise, I took it out and examined it .. It looks clean but when i put it in. its like a very very small gap or something. its hard to explain. but If anyone experienced this let me know. I know it's not my hard drive. Im pretty good with computers, but I just wanna know what I can do thanks !!

This drive won't open when I press the button, and I know the "stick a paper clip in there," and it opened, but when I stuck a CD in there, it made no move and completly ignored it. I have tried looking at the software- that's not it, and I've opened it up and re-connected the "plug" and I have restarted it many times- none of it worked. I just got the new Sims 2 expansion pack- Seasons- and I am so disappionted I can't install and play it. Please help! Thanks in advance.

Need help with a dvd-rw driver?
Bought a dvd-rw from newegg to replace my cd-rw for my laptop. Can't seem to find the driver anywhere.

Laptop: Toshiba Satellite A85-S107
DVD-R: Optiarc AD-5540A

Optiarc is a company by Sony/NEC and they are newly developed so their site isn't fully up yet. Don't have the driver because I bought it "OEM" so I'm on my own. If anybody can point me towards a driver or install program I would really appreciate it.

Okay, I've been having problems with my laptop. So I was doing a system restore. Well I decided I didn't want to wait for that, so I forced my pc to shut off, so I could reboot.

Now it tells me that Winlog or something cannot start because my shell32.dll file cannot be found. then it says something about my msgina.dll needing to be restored.

I've found all kinds of patches and fixes on the net, but none of them say anything about being stupid enough to force quit during system restore. I can't get through the boot stage, and I can't start from my DELL windows XP disk. I don't know what to do other than kick myself in the @$$.

I have a Compaq V2000. The only way I could get it to power on was to put a freshly charged battery in it. The charger that goes with thecomputer does not power it. I think it is something wrong with the computer since I have like 6 different chargers that I have tried it with. And since it does not power the computer, it can't recharge the battery. I don't know what the problem is. Does anybody know what the problem could be and even a possible solution to getting it fixed ? Someone please help if you can. It would be greatly appreciated.

I have a Dell Inspiron B120. I dropped it once. The CD ROM still works, but when I push the tray in, it still sticks out a little bit after it latches. I was wondering how hard it is to take apart and adjust so that it won't stick out.

I found which RAM to get but am confused on how to install it...I have a 256 RAM card, but I understand there are 2 slots for RAM. Can I add a 512 RAM card to the other slot or do the cards have to match? (i.e. both 256) Is it very difficult to install? Thanks in advance if u have any suggestions!
