New Problems Ok, I now have a new problem. Starting after I got the driver dilemma fixed, my computer now will not go into hibernate mode. I've tried it using the power button (which I have set to enter hibernate) and from the start menu, neither of them work. It starts going into the mode...

I just got the urge to...you know, spice up my Windows life.:P (Yes, I did learn my lesson.....for this month(jk)) Actually this all originated because of a new flash drive which wouldn't stay recognized. I'll tell the story tomorrow, but I still need to fix that:confused:.

Safe mode won't start, it just goes into a reboot loop too. However, I just fixed it. Apparently windows stores copies of all the necessary drivers in another folder for dumb people like me who start messing around with them. After an hour of looking through system folders (using Ubuntu) I...

:eek::eek:I accidently deleted a file called atipcie.sys in the driver folder on my ASUS laptop. Now whenever I boot into window 7 (64 bit) it gets halfway through the boot screen and then restarts, quickly flashing a blue screen. I've been searching for the atipcie.sys file on the internet in...

I think I am going to try Kaspersky for a while and superantispyware. I should have enough money by the time the trial for Kaspersky is up to buy it (if I like it). I haven't heard any bad things about it so I assume it will work good.

Well, I have been using Vipre Antivirus trials, but those have ran out. I don't have the money to buy it, but my parents have Norton 360 (2010 I believe). I don't like Norton, but they won't let me go without an antivirus (and windows defender doesn't count). I tried telling them that since I...

So, I recently got this laptop and it is great. Plays Crysis on medium at around 20 fps. When playing games it's internal temp reaches up to 85 Celsius (only when everything is working at max load for more that 2 minutes) , which I think is pretty hot, when just surfing the web it stays around...

Aw well:(, thanks for the info.

I was wondering if it was possible to disable a dedicated graphic card in my laptop so I could get a longer battery life. Does anyone know if this is possible/ how to do it?

I didn't (I uninstalled it already, anyways):D

Alright, thanks for the quick reply

All that was running in the background was winrar (it wasn't doing anything), CPU usage is: USER: around 10%, KERNAL: around 10% also. Closed everything but firefox and the temp reader, CPU is hovering around 65 C

Speedfan gets the exact same temp reading, so I guess they are both right. Should I leave the fan automated or use speedfan, since I closed the game cpu temp is down to 62 C. FAns aren't running

Going to try out speedfan real quick, i'll post readings when I'm done.

I might of found the problem, I lifted it up to find where the vents are and there are 3 underneath the thing, well, I had it laying on my lap. Now it's on a desk and the temp has went from 80 C to 76 C in under a minute, the game was still running in the background, too.

How do I check the bios?

So, I got my first notebook about a week ago, it's an ASUS K50AB, the specs are: CPU: AMD Turion x2 RM-75 Graphics Card: Dedicated HD 4570 512 MB memory RAM: 4 GB DDR2 HD: 320 GB Windows 7 DvD super multi Wireless 802.11n 15.6" HD/LED screen I'm using CPU ID hardware monitor for...

I need some real quick advice on this laptop LINK: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220636 How is the CPU and GPU, what kind of games would it play.

fixed, just search the laptops listed on newegg.

I didn't see anything at DELL, these three are all I could find that looked good. They are 1) HP Pavilion dv2-1110us 2)ASUS K50 series K50AB-X2A 3) Toshiba Satellite L505-S5995 They are all on Newegg (can't hyperlink on a PSP) I'm mainly looking at the 2 (not the HP). They...
