Other - Computers - September 2007

Is there any way that i can get it back?
It's a desktop computer, not a laptop though if that makes a difference, i dont know who did it and i have no leads either! Is there a way i can trace it?!

I am missing a boot file, so my computer won't boot up. I have a reinstallation disk. Is it possible to use it to only restore the missing file? Reformatting isn't an option. I need everythng step by step, and give me real answers. The last thing I want is a dumb answer during a serious matter.

pop up tally on my laptop?

There is an icon on my toolbar that shows how many pop-ups have been blocked. Is there a way of clearing this to zero so I know how many have been blocked each time I use the net?

Simple terminology please, thanks!

When I am not on my computer I have my screen saver set to come on after 5 minutes and the monitor is to turn off after 30.

Every time I then go to use the computer again after it has been inactive for a while I have an icon showing as active. Whatever icon I have sitting above the start menu is always blinking and highlighted as though it's being clicked on to start running. Nothing is actually running when I look at my applications through the task manager. It brings up something to save in my documents and then won't let me save or cancel anything... I have to restart my computer to make it stop. I have tried changing the icons around and such just to see what happens and it doesn't matter. There is always an icon doing this when I go to use it. It brings up my desktop in the middle of the night sometimes and when I go to check it it's doing this...

Any idea what this is? Why it's happening? How to stop it?

When I turn on my pc , I saw these things : This copy of windows didnt pass genuine windows validation and you havent yet resolved the problem . this copy of windows is no longer eligible to receive the full range of upgrades and product support available from microsoft . to protect ur copy of windows click resolve now-resolve later
After then , I clicked on resolve now , nothing happened , the screen was still blue all the time , i kept waiting and waiting then I reseted my pc and made another choice later . everything would be ok , I could use my pc as usual . i dont know if I will get it next time then what should i do ? is it dangerous ? my pc has no antivirus software so im scared to connect internet , once time i tried with karpersky 6.0 but the ram is 64 mb and didnt seem fit for this as it required 128mb .

You may be a victim of software counterfeiting . this copy of windows didnt pass genuine windows validation

I know that somewhere sometime I have seen that but I can't find it today. I have Windows XP on a computer that is about 4 or 5 years old. The message that keeps popping up says I have a corrupt file and to run chkdsk utility. It appears to be a temp internet file so I tried to delete those but that didn't fix it. Please help me find this....thanks!

Could you please tell me how long we have had computers as we know them today, with all the desktop equipment, the software, and the printers, and all the databanks or websites with all the information.....in other words, about what point in time did they settle down with the design we have today?

Another question: If I buy a laptop, does it function as well as a desktop, especially regarding the high-quality color printing? The desktop to which I have access right now has a terrific printer, and I am plain spoiled! And "Wordpad"?

Third question: Will I be able to take a laptop that I purchase here in the US to India with me, or should I buy another one there? I will be in a very good spot for purchasing computers, so that is no problem.

Last, with regards to what functions on a worldwide level, the whole thing fits a standard, is that not so? Unlike electrical connections and attachments for garden hoses, world standards for computers are the same? Tnx!

After years of trouble free O.E., for some reason I now have problems when trying to collect my mail.

I have all my logon details stored and the 'remember password' box ticked, and it used to automatically check for new emails when I opened OE or clicked on 'send/ receive'.

Now, when I click on 'send/receive' the server logon window comes up. When I repeatedly click on the OK button the window just keeps popping up over and over again.

I have been unable to collect emails for about a week....have tried everything, even deleting the account details and setting it up again with the correct server, smpt etc

Can anyone help?

I already backed up the My Documents folder, my Internet Explorer favorites, my email, my saved games, my downloads folder, the drivers for my video card and sound card, my music folder, my baby's pictures, and the stuff I have on my desktop. I think I got everything, but every time I reformat, it seems like I forget something. Can you think of anything I might be forgetting?
