It is never quiet in our office. There is constant interaction with the people around you. People always yapping on the phone or talking across the room. Printers and copiers going almost constantly. When I really need some quiet time I slip on the headphones and crank up the tunes. LOL I have...

Laptop does have a serial number. Pulled the DVD, HDD RAM in each and every combination still the same result. Even went so far as to disassemble it and remove the cmos battery for a while. Put it back together still no go. Looks like it may be a paperweight. LOL
While i had it...
I'll have to take a look, seems to me it did but i really didn't pay a lot of attention to it. I didn't have a whole lot of time to fool around with it last night.
I'm pretty sure the screen was taken apart at some point, so a different motherboard is a possibility.
I did remove the hard drive but didn't think to remove the DVD. I will try that tonight.
Have you ever seen that bit about Evaluation only on any other BIOS? Makes me wonder if someone flashed this BIOS and something went wrong possibly.
Picked up this laptop on Ebay and it hangs on the Toshiba splash screen and won't boot up or go into setup. 1.4 GHz Pentium, 1 GB RAM 80 GB Toshiba HDD
I have tried pulling the RAM one stick at a time and or in different slots even different RAM. doesn't make any difference.
I have had a...
Picked up this laptop on EBay. It boots up to the BIOS no problem, but it is not booting the Hard drive and going into windows. The hdd is good and will boot to windows on another machine. This thing just sits there with the curser blinking in the upper left hand corner.
I have looked through...
OK
I ran malwarebytes and spybot = no malware
Norton av = no infections
Hdd passed all of WD's diagnostics
Pulled the ram and replaced with ram from daughters laptop = seemed to make it a little better. could have been the fact that i went from 1 to 2 gigs.
Put the 1gig stick in...
New TV is probably the way to go. You can probably get a bigger/ better one for that kinda dough.
If that TV has any age on it there are probably some other components ready to go out as soon as you get the screen fixed.
I will try swapping the drive out this evening when i get a chance.
Just talked to her a few minutes ago and it sounds like moms is leaning towards buying a new laptop, so I may have plenty of time to tinker with this one in the future.LOL She is not very patient with anything that does not...
I don't know off hand what model it is.
As far as being defragged & optimized I would say probably not. HDD is only 6 months old and the mother in law has no computer savvy at all.
The system does have Norton AV on it and it said the last scan was yesterday morning. No detections.
I didn't...
Got a call from the mother in law saying her Lenovo laptop is running extremely slow. I fired this thing up and it took what seemed like an eternity to finally boot into windows. Everything I tried to open seemed slow as molasses. I also saw a couple of errors about disk usage being extremely...
