I have a laptop averetec 6100 starts immediately to work or install something, or go on the internet to surf just a block or laptop is turned off and the processor heats up quickly. Can someone tell me to anything and can you fix it and let me know on my mail [email protected]. thank you

Please send your laptop details to [email protected] and I will find the correct driver for you and e-mail it to you.

I had the same problem with my HP when l put vista on it and overcame that problem with using my XP driver. It worked for me no harm in trying your XP driver.

Is this an HP printer? If so check the startup tab in msconfig and uncheck the HP webprinting or print to web (something like that). You can also uninstall the printer and reinstall it to see if that fixes it.

Hope this helps

there might be a problem with the Linksys router, the Westell 6100 should be 1st set to bridge mode in order for your router to be connected to it. or there could also be a proble on the Verizon server.

How long have you had your router and how well is it maintained and well vented? Even the most expensive routers need these two things consistently. Failure in doing this may result in a shorter life span than normal. My guess without actually being there is that it's time to try a new one. If you get the same problem with the new router, take it back immediately and call your ISP for service. It could be possible that there is some phone work being done in the area, and you just happen to be a victim!

Have you installed any software firewalls lately, I know Norton has a habit of randomly blocking the internet.

Try disabling any firewall you may have and try again, if the internet surfing problem persists, try plugging in a wired connection and seeing if you can surf from there.

Hi,

Initially, it has to be confirmed that your laptop is virus free before all others could be addressed. Failing to do so would make all subsequent actions suspect. Pls try to:

• uninstall Norton Antivirus;
• download, install, run and update Ad-Aware. Please do it twice, immediately after install when normal mode is running, reboot and run again in Safe Mode. Safe Mode is accomplished by pressing F8 before Windows boot. In both instances, quarantine/delete any and all scanned findings;
• download, install, run and update Avira. Please do it twice, immediatelyafter install when normal mode is running, reboot and run again in SafeMode. Safe Mode is accomplished by pressing F8 before Windows boot. Inboth instances, quarantine/delete any and all scanned findings;
• reboot in normal mode;
• press Windows key + R, type "msconfig" less the quotes;
• click on the Startup tab and un-check everything that says, notifier, update, blank/no entry, registration, reboot;
• upon reboot, press Ctrl-Alt-Del, press on Performance tab and determine how much is the CPU usage;
• pls postback here the results.

Just a start, do postback how things turned up or should you need additional information. Good luck and Thank you for using FixYa.

Unhooking the modem didn't jaz things up it was when the computer was repaired. You have to run the installation disk again or just buy a mac.

That sounds like your Wifi/Bluetooth Ariel loop. Some laptops have the ariel installed but no WiFi/Bluetooth module, This is so you can add it later if you want it

Hi alexredfern, Have you checked that the printer is set to be the default printer on the problem PC?
