hi, i have an ASUS F3F, i bought it around feb 2007, it still includes laptop bag, mouse, battery, AC power cable. (note - all used but original) the thing it, the metal hinge on the left hand side snapped and caused the circuit which connects the computer part to the LCD globe, if i move it around the globe still works (the lcd inverter is cracked, works but cracked. it works fine, the stuff inside that laptop is most likely virus infected but nothing formatting wont fix. where do u think i can sell it, its a great laptop but since its broken i am considering buying a smaller laptop. so the backlight is off and the lid doesnt close properly. it can be closed but carefully.
im in hk right now, i doubt theyll give me a good price, a new asus f3f is worth us00-00 (thats not what i expect my broken laptop to be worth,relax) , but i checked online quotes the most thatll be given is prob 0. can anyone recommend anything?? thanks =)

I need a free virus removal for my laptop. I noticed today that my comp has a virus and idk how to get rid of it. I need something free but yet something that works. My wallpaper is completely blank and my comp keeps shutting down. Any advice would be great! Thx

I’ve found this laptop for sale and the owner claims it has a virus she didn’t want to mess with so bought a new computer. Would it be difficult to get rid of the virus, especially if you aren’t interested in anything but the software on it or would you have to replace it, and how would you get rid of it? Would software manufacturers replace the original software for free or would you have to buy new? The sale price is 0 and it’s use would be very basic, word processing and internet for e-mail and limited surfing. Would you buy this computer, assuming you are very computer savvy?

New Laptop Problem, i bought new dell studio 17 laptop. But my internet explorer still takes time to open with/without internet.
Dell Studio 17 inch screen, 4gb ram, 500 gb hard drive, intel core 2 duo T-6500m, processor speed 2.1 ghz, Windows Vista premium.
Now my problem is that internet explorer or firefox still takes time to open, infact its the same as my desktop which is 1gb ram 80gb hrd drive and 2 ghz . Now i asked the geek squad or technicians in best buy and he told me that there is some super fetch thing in new computers so he said it will be abt a month for my laptop to get use to what I do i.e i work on multiple explorers(5-8)and couple spreadsheets. NOW i don’t what should I do? will it really make or real fast after a month or so, but what it don’t.
SHOULD I WAIT OR SHOULD i RETURN AND GET SOME ELSE, COS I CANNOT RETURN AFTER 14 DAYS ARE OVER. please HELP TO MAKE TO MAKE A DECISION.
And if i should return it what kind i should and with what specification.
Be free to be subjective and tell in detail whats going on.
internrt explorer/ fire fox does take time but not really long time. Point is that my 1gb ram take same or almost same time . and I was expecting that 4gb would be real fast.
and I dont want to buy anything expensive than this cos those are for gamers of artists ..but all i need to open multiple explorers fast.
I also installed kaprasky anti-virus but was told it does not make computer slow as compared other anti-viruses in the market.

I will soon be planning to buy a laptop, but I will be using it for school and college later on. Which is a better and a smarter choice, Apple or Windows?
I usually use the computer for Internet Search, Writing reports, essays, and other school work, etc. I also use it for storing pictures from my Digital Camera and iTunes as well. I currently have Windows XP in my P.C, yet have been having trouble with viruses, the computer freezes and is somewhat slow during the Internet search process. Yet compare to my school, they use Apple instead, and so far I like it.
All ideas and suggestions are truly appreciated. Thanks!

so one of those geek squad guys at best buy told me that if i want the best anti-virus program, i have to get one from a company known for anti-virus programs and the best anti-spyware would be a different company who specialize just in that. basically, there’s no one brand i could buy, that could do both and match the two separate programs in quality. is this true? or was this guy just trying to sell me an extra program when one could do both and be is just as good? i don’t know if it matters but he recommended web root (spyware) and trend (anti-virus).

I know that sounds ignorant but what is the point of making a virus? I had a virus once that tried to convince me to buy their "anti-virus" software, but other than that I really don’t see the point.
Anti-virus software companies have a good reason to make viruses, who else would put in all the time and effort? Even if some sickos had enough energy to make a virus, would there really be so many if it were just lonely hackers in their basements?

This is not on my computer, I am trying to help a friend over the phone. This is in her add/remove programs and I’m afraid that if we just remove it, the full amount of the malware/spyware/virus won’t be removed.

i have been renting to own a pc laptop and i hate it! if i finished buying it (because i have put WAY to much into it now!) and then sold it and bought a different one, which should i get…
i really love the macbook, but i have heard they are hard to get use to is this true, should i just try another laptop…
i have an hp pavillion dv7 now, i use to have a dell and i like the hp better but i keep getting viruses and stuff messing up or slowing down my computer, i am SO tired of it! i really love the idea of a macbook but i know that it is not easy to find some programs for the mac…
if you are a mac user, do you like it? is it easy for you to find programs? is it more expensive for those programs? and also how long did it take for you to get use to the interface?
anything else i need to know???
haha i know…i am not looking to do this until i find a job (which may be a while) but i am a very ocd person, i have to plan and plan months in advance!
i just finished with school and that cost me ,000 so i wasn’t able to afford anything expensive…
i know the mac does get viruses but not hardly as many as a pc does, and so far i ahve really disliked windows, and the macs i have used i love!
i want something that will be good for traveling, i really enjoy traveling and i plan on doing it more once i get a job. but a 17", 8 pound laptop is not really ideal for traveling with it! idk maybe i will just buy and ipad–you know the new one, and keep my klunker!

This morning i turned on my laptop (HP, vista home premium), logged on and it said: windows has encountered a critical problem. it will log off. save your work. then sometimes it says error and sometthing else then the computer restarts so i can only stay logged on for about 10 seconds. I’ve tried system restore and start up recovery but it says it can’t do it automatically.I’m sure its infested with viruses because i was using a norton free trial and it eventually expired and was gonna soon buy the full lversion, plus i had been installing software last night. any suggestions of what i can do? I’ve only had this laptop 2 months i cant bear the thought of having to buy a new one. (I’m using my dads laptop now just in case your wondering lol)
Sorry I forgot to say that i didnt download the norton thing, it came with the computer. at the time of buying my laptop i didnt have enough money too buy norton with it but installed on it was a 30 day free trial. i hadnt installed any other virus protection programme.

Last night, my friend called me frantically after she realized she opened an email with a virus. She wants me to fix it for her but she was dumb enough to not buy an anti-virus software. How can I remove the virus from her computer then? Any Helpful hints please? She can’t even afford geek squad….

I have found popups say I have volnurabilities, I buy their product and my system crashes or I can’t get videos through the media either newsgroups or the latest movies and entertainment. How do I know if something is bad or not? either an import or an export. I want to know if Yahoo has adequate virus protection or do I need to go elsewhere like Norton’s?

Im really getting upset. My boyfriend is an idiot and got adware spyware and viruses on my computers from bad websites. I do not have the money to go buy spyware doctor or anything like that. Everytime a program says its free, it does the virus scan for free but to remove the infections it actually found it says I need to upgrade and buy the package. Any free programs or even trials that will actually remove some of the bad stuff? Thanks

My Gates laptop came with the media movie maker. Quicktime somehow got onto it and now I can not use the movie maker, does not recognize .MOV file. Researching it, I see Apple got a virus in Quicktime. I can not change the video files to other formats, will not work. Does BestBuy stores or someone have a way to wipe it out or change it to windows media player as it was originally? Am I just going to have to buy the Quicktime Pro to use there movie maker? Will Muvee movie player work reading these Quicktime MOV files?
