Your computer will still boot into Windows, even if it is very slow, but you CANNOT get on the Internet.

General information about

your computer

If you have a pretty good Idea what you want to try to do, use the quick links or troubleshooting links to the left to go directly to that page.

Take a look at the listings below to start trouble shooting your computer. In each case, the page you go to will have a description at the top defining a particular problem. Read these descriptions carefully, and choose the closest description to the problem you are having with your computer. For instance, you may choose "My computer does not do anything" because when you turn on your computer you hear it running but get nothing on the monitor screen. Actually, "My computer does not do anything" page applies when you do not hear any noises, not when you hear the fans run.

All software mentioned is available on the Recommended Software page, along with links to other products that I believe have value to the average computer owner.
