whats wrong with my laptop

[stevewool]

any laptop buffs on here, my pages seem to be all pushed together, when i open a page all the words seem to be pushed together and i have to click the page a few times for it to open so i can read it, just like when i open on here so many lines will be repeated and squashed together

[imagine]

have you updated adobe flash , and java ?

try this its safe to use and will scan for anything out of date on your lap top

Never come across that before. :Erm:

Just enter it as a (short) question on google search.

- like...'why are words pushed together on the page ?'

Just searched myself, and so far, nothing.

That's why you should always have a backup computer...even if it's a wind-up one (like this one :cwm3:).

New reading glasses reqired??? :Cuckoo:

[Steve.r]

Have you expanded the page ???? maybe it is on 'plus' %

Look down at the bottom right just above the clock in the corner. does it say 100% if not click the arrow icon next to it and return it to 100%

Just a thought.......


Oh.... mate, if you didn't buy that nice new iphone for Emm, you could have a nice shiney new laptop... and no problems :xxgrinning--00xx3::icon_lol:

[stevewool]

to tell the truth steve, thats why i have been a little quite on here, it does my head in trying to clear the pages, but it seems to be a little better tonight, and Ems iphone is being paid for with the help of Em, new laptop is on its way once i convince myself i need one:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[grahamw48]

I'm sure you don't need a new laptop steve...just a solution. :)

If I can make this old heap of scrap work perfectly after 9 years...:icon_lol:

Ooops....sorry computer. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. :icon_sorry:....and I have just given you a nice new graphics card...the one I bought 3 years ago and forgot to return to PC world...that I thought wouldn't fit....but now find that it does. :rolleyes:

Steve - what browser are you using? on the Menu there should be a HELP option and then ABOUT which shows the version number.

Just bear in mind there is a scam going on at the moment where some idiot calls you and says they are from Microsoft and calling about fixing your PC.. ive had a few calls recently so beware.

[tone]

PS whats your number I'll call you!! :laugher:

[imagine]

not green are they, falling down the page :yikes: the matrix :icon_lol:

You can try a system restore, which will back date your laptop to a date that you nominate before it went loopy. I would try a few other things first as this would be a last resort for me as you will lose any information on the laptop that was added from the date you restore it from to the present day.

I had an Indian on recently trying to do this scam - it threw him when I told him I'd had his colleague on the day before, the PC was running worse than ever and I wanted a refund :D

Whats wrong with my wifes iPad and her Samsung Galaxy Ace. :D Both are playing up. Fortunately we can send the iPad back to Apple for a replacement.

Yeah they have been Indian in my experience.
The thing is these people just 'war dial' and quite a few people have been scammed. It makes PC World look like saints!

I had the same call about a year ago googled the scam and it seems there's a town in India where it is the main earner

...or Vauxhall/Bedford in Luton ? :rolleyes:
