How to post a new topic

This was very helpful, thanks

Xp freexes

I have had my XP since 2002. I have had several freezes with it. What I have found is when the inside of the tower gets real dusty the computer gets hot and freezes. I take the side off and vacume inside and clean the fans. This helps, its like a having a new computer.

Hi everybody hope everyone's day going well

Hello to everyone out there. I'm new in forums and I hope i'll get the best in this forum. basically I deal with pcs almost every minute of my life and to say he least I'm in the industry.

New

Hi everyone. I'm new here. I recently built my first PC, or I like to say assembled it since I did not actually solder components to a board and wire it etc. I order my motherboard, power supply, memory, ATX mid tower, hard drives, and the processor from compusa, which seems like tiger direct. When I called to ask about a shipping issue tiger direct answered on the other side. lol.

But anyways I hope to fit in as much as possible and looking forward learning new things.

thx

introduction

Hi, I'm from Texas.

hello every one

Hi everyone

Hi. My name is Ann. I'm very very new to this. I'm not very knowlegable about the computer (at all), but am very interested in learning. I do have a problem with my computer that I don't know how to fix. It says I have a hacktool.rootkit and the virus protection I have on my computer doesn't fix it; it just blocks or quarantines it. Sometimes it says it removes it but every time I turn my computer off and back on it's there again. I don't know how to get rid of it. If anyone that has a ton of patience can help me I would so appreciate it.

Hi HappilyMarried9

You should see here for initial Virus/Malware Removal Instructions. Follow the steps then post a request for help (along with the log flles) in the Virus and Malware forum

Hi Im new to this site. Im having a problem with my computer this morning. I have both IE and Firefox, for some reason I cant load certain sites like Facebook. It loads but it doesnt look right all the information in on the left side of the screen, no graphics or pictures and everything is line itemed if that makes any sense. I tried both with Firefox and IE, same thing happens when I try to do a google search, then other pages like this one looks perfectly normal. Also, everything is taking an extremely long time to load. Its a new computer could this be a virus? Please help. Thanks

You should read the first post in this read as it describes How to Post a New Topic.

You need to post your own new topic in your own thread so people will see it and can try to help. g'luck

hi im vicki and i bought a gigaware webcam with mic and i dont know how to use it

Hi vicki and welcome to the forums. Did not the camera come with a manual? You should be able to find a manual online (most likely in PDF format) from Gigaware.

Youu are going to have to install your camera using the CD installation disk.

You're probably best to start with the manual :rolleyes:

Thank you Kimsland, I need all the help I can get and I will absorb your post and follow the instructions before I try to ask any Technical questions. Respectfully Yours; Braun
