| | It is very possible that your hard drive croaked. My guess is your laptop is out of warrenty too, right? But first, lets make sure your laptop is truely dead. When you enter the bios, scroll through the pages and one should give you information about hard drives. Does it … |
| | you may have some nice neighbors stealing your internet for free. Yes you may see your speed get back up to normal if this is the case and you secure it so they can not get on to it. You can check in the router to see what computers are … |
