My
System was very slow, so I had to change the hard disc to SSD, but when I got home I noticed my system would just hang without moving, I went back to the place I bought the SSD, and they reload the windows, but today it was still d same thing when I get home in the night… please what could be wrong
take your system back to where you bought the Ssd and explain to them, they should help you change that Ssd.

Good afternoon Gurus. I want to buy a brand new laptop from range of 150k - 200k. core i3 and above, 4 GB ram.. Please give me options to choose from as I am confused.
1. I saw one laptop online(HP 250 G8). Is it a good option?
2. Please what's Intel celeron? Is it higher or lower than i3,i5 and i7?

Thank you for your prompt response.

New Pentium 4gb, 1tb is over #185k

If you're and a new laptop with corei5 processor for that price,consider getting a US/UK used laptop.

I can reprogram a new BIOS for you.

Always connect your charger whenever you're updating.

How does that work?

Building a new bios file from manufacturers website and flashing it to the BIOS chip on the board.

Cool,it wasn't completely dead,.some will make it not power on at all.

Always plugin your charger when updating even if battery is 100% full.

Bro do you think a BIOS update could help fix a laptop that does not charge . this is on my lenovo l512.

It could,try it out.

The SIO controls how the battery is being charged, there's a bios inside the SIO(KBC) on some motherboard it has a separate chip outside,if it is corrupt it can affect charging.

So try it and see.

@bigstar: you may as well ask me what I know about a mouse that disappeared from its cage. You should phrase your questions properly. Is it your wireless connection tray icon that disappeared? Or has your wireless adapter stopped working? Or you can't configure your wireless connection again? Or your computer cannot detect your wireless device? What do you mean you use broadcomm driver? Is it that your original driver stopped working and you loaded a broadcomm instead. It should work though, because compaq no longer exists. HP bought compaq about two years ago, and HP makes broadcomm drivers.
Please my computer cannot detect my my phone hotspot. As in I cannot connect my phone to my PC so I can use my phones data to browse. I've tried to update the drivers in my phone with driverpack17 but it still doesn't work. Please help. I'm using windows7 64 bit. And again, when I try to check troubleshoot, it would say an unexpected error has occurred. The troubleshooting wizard can't continue.
