Hello all.......hopefully someone knows the answer to this puzzle. I have recently noticed that in every JPG folder and alot of MY DOCUMENTS folders are getting an annoying file for some reason named PPThumbs.ptn . It appears out of nowhere, seems to do no harm by deleting it, Norton doesn't...
Ok......that's what everyone is telling me, but the cable end that goes into the floppy only fits one way, there is a notch at one side so it has to go that way. The other end of the cable is notched on one side to fit into the motherboard. The cables themselves will not go into the slots unless...
Hi,
If by lead you mean the cable that runs from the board to the floppy, I have checked that three times, there is only one way in which it will fit because of the notches on the cable. Does that make sense? Of course, I'm here asking you guys for help because I am certainly not as technically...
Thank you Dreamboat, at least the macro reminder has quit, lol. I have tried what you said to do in your FAQ....saving it into a new book. That did not work. I can't figure out how to get to where you are talking about in WORD in order to open it there. I get the invalid text error, but I have...
Has anyone else experienced this and if so what'd you do? Everytime I use Excel to do invoices and then print the invoice, Excel has an illegal closing. The printer is installed properly. It will never print either. Also, is there anyway to get it to stop asking if I want to disable or enable...
Hi all,
I have a gateway pii 233mhz. I had a quantum 4.2 Gb HD in it and according to what everyone was telling me, my hard drive was dying. It had gotten to the point where if I was running windows, it would go to blue screen and say "could not write to drive C" and on a cold boot...
HI everyone!
An HP pavilion 550 has a write protected hard drive. Don't know how it happened, but how do you undo it? Do I need to reformat it in order to get it undone?

Jim,
Thanks again, I've already went and got an upgraded bios..after doing some investigation on my own, the bios (cmos) she has is the first one that came out for that computer...they've had nine upgrades since that bios. Like you, I am thinking I may have to do the second option you...
Thank you so much Jim....oh how I love a challenge!!!! I have yet to undertake anything that I couldn't complete, hehehe. I appreciate you heading me in the right direction! It's a start for sure. Thanks so much!

Also, I'd like to add, that I have never done anything like this before. The hardest thing I have ever done to anyone's computer is reformatting. The biggest problem I've ever run into doing that is not being able to delete the partition. So please be patient with me as I have no formal...
I have no idea, I can't get any further into the computer but what I just showed you in the previous post. I press F1 to go into setup, but it won't go. It will only give me a load error. How do I get into Bios if I can't F1?
Thanks,
Aqua
Hi,
I am wondering if anyone can help me with this issue. A friend's computer, a new one, bought Feb '01 from Gateway. She has contacted their tech support and also her ISP's tech support to no avail. The problem: The internet connection disconnects every 30 minutes without fail...
Hello,
I am having a problem and hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. I do very light technical support in my hometown. A client has given me a challenge...to put a new HD in an old PC. I'm willing to give it a go, I just need to know what to do. I have completed the...
