I have just checked my Java version and updated it, but I am still getting the vertical lines in Firefox. I have now disabled hardware acceleration in Firefox and problem still occurs.

Thank you FredWagner and rclarke250. The problem is solved. I had IE8 and Firefox on PC and both of these had the problem. I've just downloaded Opera and very pleased to say I now have normal type.

Hi Ben, Drivers are updated, malware scan is clean, unable to try another OS. Hi RClarke, How can I tell if its happening in BIOS, as there is nowhere to try typing in to. I have been on to Benq tech support and they say that it's not a monitor problem but a setting on my PC, but they don't...

Since installing my new Benq 2420HDBL monitor (connected by DVI-D single link cable) to a Windows Vista PC I am finding that when I type into some forums and Facebook and Flickr I am getting a line of vertical barcode type images under the text. This does not occur in my applications or...

I have checked everything with Sisoft Sandra and no faults found, but now when I run Speed Fan I get the following message before it opens. "Speedfan:Speedfan.exe - Bad Image" at head of dialogue box, then in dialog box "C:\ProgramFiles\AcerEmpoweringTechnology\eDataSecurity\x64\libeay32.dll is...

OK, so it doesn't look like a problem with the CPU. I've run Speed Fan and I can't get the CPU temp above 41 even if I run videos, Lightroom and Photoshop altogether. Funnily enough it ran all these without crashing. It seems to crash when I've gone away and left it. Anymore ideas please.

Is there any software which would monitor my CPU and see what temperature it really is running at, before I set to work on the heat sink?

That's what I thought Ben, but it does seem strange that the monitoring software that came with my PC "Acer empowering Technology" and was preinstalled should give maximum in C and actual (supposed!) reading in F. I always thought PC's were supposed to be good at math, but as they say "garbage...

Thank you everyone. I've just checked in my BIOS and it's giving the temperature of my CPU as -67, but still listing it as 187 in my monitoring software, what's going on I wonder?

Thank you both. I have opened the case and blown the dust out of the fan, (there was only a little). Not knowing much about the assembly of modern computers I notice that there is a very large circular shroud over the fan and heatsink, so that I can't get to the CPU. Any hints for disassembly...

During the last week my PC shuts down with blue screen and the following error codes. 0x0000007F 0x00000008 0x803D3130 0x00000000 0x00000000 This has only just started to happen. Some days the PC is on for up to 8 hours before this happens and sometimes it occurs after only 2 hours. The crash...

I haven't as yet, but I found a post where someone said that they had. What they did was to download the latest trial version of Illustrator, use it for a few days then uninstall it. When asked "Do you want to remove the pref file" say no. It retains the preferences from the latest copy and then...

I have suddenly lost my list of fonts from when I click on character on the control bar. When I access Type-Font they are all there but instead of having variations of font the selection regular appears several times. I updated to Acrobat Reader 9 yesterday and it seems more than coincidence...

Thank you maultier. I think what I will do is try running the router installation cd again myself ( friend did it las time and has no idea what she did ) and then try to get a wireless connection. It can't be the ethernet cable as my laptop works perfectly connected by the same cable to her...

Thank you Jimbo. I've just got back from friends today before reading your post. I tested conncection with my laptop runnning XP and Ethernet worked fine. I checked the DHCP config on friends laptop by doing the following. Network and Sharing Centre, Manage Network connections, Local Area...

Thank you MrNick, but how do I do that?

A friend has set up her Zyxel NBG334W Router and only uses it to connect her 2 desktop PC's running Windows XP via Ethernet connections. She has not enabled Wifi access as she tells me that she just ran the Connection wizard. I assume that she has not secured the network either as she did not...

Thank you all for your help. It turned out that one of my memory modules was faulty. I have removed it and am know up and running on half memory. Next job is to buy new memory.[2thumbsup]

Hi linney, Thanks for your help. I will try what you suggest. I decided to format drive because on start up my pc gave error message ntfs.sys was corrupt and then closed down and then went into start up close down loop. I tried to repair using windows xp disc but it would not repair "unable to...

I am trying to reformat my hard drive. I boot with my windows XP cd and press any key to boot from CD. OK set up menu appears. I press enter to continue set up. I never get much further than this as I either get dmboot.sys corrupted, ntfs.sys could not be found, or setupdd.sys could not be...
