Hope you guys can help me with my problem. My MSI GX620 laptop's DVD/CD-Rom drive isn't reading any discs. Prior to this issue, I was ripping my audio CDs and converting them to mp3s via iTunes. I ripped five or so CDs. And then afterwards when I inserted another CD, the drive did not read it. Initially I thought it was because it was an old CD kaya hindi binasa. I popped in a relatively newer CD and hindi pa rin binasa. I rebooted my laptop and relaunched iTunes. I tried another CD and it still won't read it. I tried Windows Media Player and it also wouldn't read it. The DVD/CD icon is there, it's just not reading any CDs. Help!

 

 

 

looks like yer dvd is toast. buy a new one.

Just recently I can't seem to access Google.com, I always get the message

 

"Server Not Found ... Firefox can't find the server at www.google.com."

 

Also, while I can access Yahoo.com, whenever I try to do a search I get a similar message:

 

"Server not found ... Firefox can't find the server at search.yahoo.com".

 

The weird thing is that my laptop (connected via wireless router) doesn't have this problem. What could be happening?

 

so im thinking that this is a desktop, right? is this wired or wireless? honestly this could be anything from a virus (which redirects you to a different website) to a network connection problem (probably loose physical connection if you are wired or a driver problem on your NIC or wireless card if you have one).

Can someone help me with my little problem, my pc always restarts to a default time and date. I have changed the battery of the motherboard and did the "load optimized" option in bios but still when I boot it always roll back to the same problem. I have installed a new os (win7) pero ganun pa rin. thanks in advance

 

or you might wanna try flashing your BIOS to the latest version aside from trying the other suggestions of the computer geeks here.

good day mga sir

 

im planning to upgrade my video card (currently im using GT9600 inno 3d). any suggestion sa pwedeng ipamalit?

 

thanks

 

Maraming pwedeng pamalit sa current video card mo but that depends on your preference. Pwedeng pamalit dyan either GTX460 or HD6870, make sure lang kaya ng PSU mo yung bagong video card (mind you these are only mid range GPUs) kung hanap mo naman is mas malakas pa dyan depende na yan sa budget mo. As for compatibility as long as may PCI-Express slot motherboard mo walang problema dyan.

Sup men. I'm currently an L2 tech in a call center somewhere so I would know some stuff.

 

As far as I know, di mo mapapalitan yung language nung OS mo coz magagawa mo lang yun kapag naka Win 7 Ultimate ka.

 

I would suggest doing an upgrade to W7 Ultimate or format>reinstall OS. HTH.

Kung branded desktop yan, check mo yung recovery disc. Possible na dalawa language nung OS English and Japanese. Since sa japan galing yan logical lang na japanese ang language na pinili nila, so if you want it in English try mo gamitin yung recovery disc for sure may English language yan na kasama. Sa pag kakaalam ko standard na sa mga recovery disc ang may 2 languages during installation depende sa preference ng user.

[iannasty]

salamat sa mga reply nyo.

[John Carlo]

salamat sa mga reply nyo.

 

actually kaya sya ng update, open mo ung update tapos may 2 kang pagpipilian dun, ung recommended at yung optional

click optional then look for ENGLISH LANGUAGE PACK

if may nagsend sa akin ng yahoo email, mabilis lang ba ma trace ang IP address at kung sino ang gumamit nun?

[MrEpps]

Try to use a third party uninstaller like Revo or Funinstaller.

 

if may nagsend sa akin ng yahoo email, mabilis lang ba ma trace ang IP address at kung sino ang gumamit nun?

 

Technically, yes. You can definitely get the IP of where the email came from. You'll only have issues if the sender knows how to hide his/her tracks well. And also, though I'm not sure about cyber laws here in the Philippines, you might need to get a warrant to trace a person via their IP.

does sending thru yahoo and thru google using the same computer gives you the same IP address? How does one gets an IP address? Is the IP address permanent for the same computer irregardless of server?
