  • PC Problem?? There is some basic info needed to make helping a lot easier
    1. Describe the problem with as much detail as you can, even if you think it is silly or sounds stupid just still post it.
    2. What you had been doing when the problem occurred
    3. Your computer\'s specifications and operating system
    4. If you have recently add or removed any software or hardware
    5. If the problem is random or not
    6. If it is an on line issue is it every page or just a few pages
    7. If you get or see any error codes
    8. Have you checked for any problems in your device manager or system log file and if so what are they?
    9. Is system restore on or off
    10. Have you recently had a run in with a virus and do you have the following installed and updated
    Spybot s&d, Ad-Aware, and CCleaner along with your updated virus protection
    11. Have run a registry cleaner or messed with the registry in any way
    12. Posting the system configuration helps a lot when it could be a hardware problem. Also, taking a Pit test and posting the link to your test in the first post will be a big help.
    13. Make the topic indicative of your problem. Don\'t just write \"help\" or \"problem.\" Many people don\'t even open a topic so titled.
    and most important
    14. Take and post a free PC Diagnostic test: http://web.archive.org/web/20080530032153/http://pcpitstop.com/pcpitstop/default.asp
    (Requires you to register for free). NOTE: Internet Explorer 6 and up required. For Firefox users, please use the IETab found here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419


    About the free online PC Diagnostic Test
    Just park your PC in one of our bays and grab a cup of coffee. Our automated mechanics will put your PC safely through a battery of tests to check its health, configuration and performance. In many cases, if our testing detects a problem you can direct our mechanics to fix it while you\'re online.

    The diagnostics take between one and five minutes depending upon your system and modem speed. You\'ll be informed along the way on the status of our testing, and at the end you\'ll get a \'clickable\' report on your PC\'s health and performance. We keep all the information you give us private.

    take the time to read the whole guide, and you\'ll see
  • master,

    sorry if this is a noob question pero how do I delete a thread i created? it seems wala yung delete option from the message board itself, i had a thread with same topic reposted thrice due to page errors and i can\'t seem to find a way to delete the other two. Please help. TIA! :)
  • afaik only mods can delete threads
  • @pcruztemp

    ok sir. i\'ve already marked the thread N/A and deleted the text in the message box. i also left a message for the moderator in case he finds it out so he would know which ones to delete.

    Sana lang hindi ako magka-violation dahil hindi ko naman sinasadya >.<

    thanks!
