    Acer Aspire No front Lights or Video

    I took out the fan and oiled it in response to the problem. The high pitch sound, no video, and no front light on was the original problem. I wanted to check out the noise as a clue to what the problem could be and discovered it was the fan. I oiled it because I had it cracked open anyway.

    Acer Aspire No front Lights or Video

    Took the fan out, the sticker off, and put some lubricating oil in the two holes. I have done it with another loud computer fan and it works.

    Acer Aspire No front Lights or Video

    Hi all. All of the tech specs are in the attached picture. The only difference is that I am running Windows 10. My son went downstairs to find the computer (we use it for streaming and as a media player from our server in another room) emitting a high pitch sound. He turned it off immediately...

    Extending My WiFi

    Thanks, Geoff. The 3mbps is all that Windstream offers here. We can only stream one device at a time but it does YouTube and Netflix well. We are not gamers or anything, so are kind of used to it. What I am looking at is something like this...

    Extending My WiFi

    Hi all, First, I just wanted to say that I am pretty weak when it comes to networking, so I may use the wrong terminology. If you respond, a bunch of acronyms and numbers will not do me too much good without an explanation, so please be warned. :-) I live in a very rural area and have about 5...

    Freeze-Four Beeps

    The computer freezes first, and then when I hard reboot I get the four beeps and blank screen. (The fan runs after the beeps but nothing else happens). After the cycle with the four beeps, I then turn the computer off again, back on, and it will then usually reboot and run normally.

    Can't Install SP2

    According to the Power Meter, it says the current power source is batteries, which is obviously not true. Other than that, I am not even sure what my power settings should be.

    Can't Install SP2

    Hi Scott. It is plugged into the wall and running. I do not even have a battery in it, so it would not power up at all if the wall switch was off.

    Can't Install SP2

    Hi all. I have an old laptop, Toshiba Satellite 4600, that I am trying to use as a backup. It had Windows 2000 and I put on XP. I have downloaded and installed the updates, except Service Pack 2. When I try, the wizard comes up for a split second and then disappears with an error...
