I cannot keep a connection when I am on the website. I've tried many ways, no luck. I don't know all the jargon, and I don't know enough about the workings of a computer, to be adventurous. If some one is willing to tell me in clear English, I will be eternally grateful to this wonderful person, who will save me many hours of frustration.D.M. View the thread

<b><span>On my grand daughter’s new lap top computer she got a warning that the Norton antivirus that comes with the computer was soon to expire. I told her all we needed to do was down load Microsoft Security Essentials. Then I discovered that the Security Essentials was already loaded on her lap top. However, it had a warning on the Security Essentials that read “</span></b><b><span>PC POTENTIALLY UNPROTECTED.” <span>So I ran a scan using this service which I am not sure that it really worked. Then I read on the internet that there could be a problem due to having the Symantec still loaded on the computer, so I went to contro…

I'm thinking of purchasing Windows 7 now so I can get the Windows 8 Upgrade offer, but I read somewhere that this is limited to PC's that come preinstalled with it. IF I purchase a key from the Microsoft Store right now and install it on my own PC, will the upgrade offer still apply to me? View the thread

l've attempted numerous times to change my computer's monitor sleep mode from 2 hours to 5 hours, and it will not reset, approx. a year ago, l needed Dell to re-install a corrupted hard drive with Windows Vista on it... and l'm still having problems with Vista.

I believe it disappeared after a windows automatic update? All I know is that I now have a desktop gadget gallery that I never had before and my calculator disappeared. Contacting Dell would not be helpful. I believe I should at least have some type of FREE calculator on this system and that Windows should provide it. View the thread

when changing from vista to windows 7, what is the best way to remove the stuff you want to keep ? do I have to go through every folder on the computer ? the soft ware I have disc for I can just un-install, but the soft ware I bought and downloaded is what I am concerned about. I know most od the time I downloaded to my download file, the when it was 'runned' it went to programs, do I have to get both parts ? or can I just get the original download ? how is the best way to keep music, videos, pictures and soft ware, so I don't loose it when I do the clean install ? also, I installed vista a couple times with out problems, is seven just as easy or is it harder …

I installed WHS 2011. When I looked with Explorer the drives, I noticed that there were five logical drives. I have in my Home Server two physical drives, 500 MB and 1 TB. Why they have been slipped to so many partitions? In C: there are usual Windows directories ( 42.5 GB free of 59.9 GB).<br/> Drive D: is empty (71.8 MB of 99.9 MB)<br/> In E: there are ServerFolders (405 GB of 405)<br/> In F: again the same Windows directories as in C: (39.0 GB of 59.9).<br/> In G: again ServerFolders (834 GB of 871).<br/> The sum is about 1.5 TB. I had to install WHS two times because I had some problems with an extra (third) drive with eSATA co…

My computer will not allow me to change anything on the file name because it says it cannot find the file. Not sure how the space got there. I may have mistyped it while changing the file name. Is there a fix out there for this problem? View this thread
