Overseas calls, asking me to log-in to my computer :
Greetings, I have some folks from what apears to be India calling, they told me I had a error on my computer (Viruses) and wanted me to go through some steps in finding it. Anyone have a clue as to what this is all about ? If they are lagit, how do you know, the person calling could barely speak english and when I asked for the manager it was the same thing. Thanks a bunch for any assistance, Dave View this thread

lifecam 5000 hd
My life cam will work great for a month, maybe 2 months, then it just quits working. I reinstall, reset, do everything in the trouble shooter, nothing works. Unless I plug it into a differnt USB port, then it works fine, if I plug it into a port I used befor, it will not work.Even after I get it working again on a new port, it will not work on the old usb port, everything else will works in those ports, but not the lifecam. I have gone through the computer, it's not the computer, even after a total reinstall of the entire operating system. I will get no errors on any thing, it just quits working, and never works in that port again. It does the same thing in a port hub. I have test equipment to test the electronics in the ports them selves, there is nothing wrong, it just quits working in that port and never works in it again. Any ideas? Get a differant camera brand? My other cameras will work in the ports just fine! View the thread

Can I hook-up and run a secondary 2TB internal hardrive to my existing desktop w/internal 1TB hardri
Hello y'all, I bought a refurbished HP p6320y w/MSI motherboard,2TB hardrive,8G ram, quad-core Athlon 2.8Ghz,Win7sp1 + essentials. The 2TBhardrive took a dump. I installed a 1TB,7200rpm,Seagate hardrive to replace it until I got the original Hitachi 2TB back. Now, I am not tech-savy enough to install/sync both hardrives internally. Can I use my new 2TB internal Hrdrive by simply plugging it in via USB, or does it need to be installed and loaded w/O.S/drivers professionally? I know its a dumb question but money is tight, I thought its worth asking anyways. peace, boulonman View the thread

What are the various .NET Framework softwares for? Are any non-essential?
My computer has currently installed: .NET Framework 3.0 SP2 208MB .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 28MB .NET Framework 4 Client Profile 182MB These require a lot of memory compared to Windows XP (220MB) Further, every time I shut down, the system tries to install 2 updates - but possibly fails each time(?). I suspect one of these relates to Framework 3.5 Can someone help me sort this out? View this thread

Error messages
Someone called me from Windows and said I had many error messages that was preventing me from getting optimum use from my computer. I had noticed error messages, but I just ignored them. The person who called from Windows was instructing me through the process of fixing the 'errored' programs. His English was difficult to follow. I did the best I could, then we got cut off and I don't know what to do about this. Also Outlook came up on my computer and I don't know how I got it and I don't like it...Can you help me with this problem? Please... Lorraine Jenkins I really prefer speaking with someone.

I would like a refund, as I bought Windows 8 in good faith, with no pre-issues warning about installing issue View this thread
