1. Applications that refuse to install:
Your computer might refuse to install some
applications in case your computer does not have
enough hard disk space. Under such
circumstances, the best option for you is to free
up some space at the earliest. This is not a tough
problem at all. You can get rid of files and folders
you seldom use. Your computer may have many
temporary files, duplicate files of data stored. You
can delete these files and free up some space.

SOLUTION :
Make sure to uninstall any apps you dont use
 2. Full Hard Drive Its possible that
your hard drive could be too full of data
to function efficiently. You should have
at least 2 3MB (200,000 300,000
bytes) of free space to allow your
programs to run smoothly.

and

their solutions
 The screen is frozen

When you computer freezes, you may have

no other option than to reboot and risk
losing any unsaved work. Freezes can be a
sign of insufficient ram, registry conflicts,
corrupt or missing files, or spyware. Press
and hold the power button until the
computer turns off, then restart it and get
to work cleaning up the system so that it
 Computer is Slow

If your computer is slower than

normal, you can often fix the problem
simply by cleaning the hard disk of
unwanted files. You can also install a
firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware
 Overheating

If a computer case lacks a sufficient

cooling system, then the computers
components may start to generate
excess heat during operation. To avoid
your computer burning itself out, turn
it off and let it rest if its getting hot.
Additionally, you can check the fan to
Google doesnt look right

Browser hijackers are a particularly nasty breed of

malware. Such programs take over your Web browser
and can stealthily redirect your Google searches and
other queries to fake pages meant to steal your
personal information or to further infect your system.
Running a real-time antivirus utility is the best way to
stay safe. If your browser has already been hijacked,
uninstall the browser and use your antivirus program in
conjunction with Malware bytes to remove the intruder.
My Wi-Fi keeps disconnecting

Spotty wireless connections can be a puzzler. Is it your computer? Your

router? Your ISP? Try a few things before calling your Internet service
provider.
Confirm that your computer is within range of your wireless router. Weak
signals mean weak connections. Next, make sure your PCs wireless card
has the latest drivers. Try letting Windows troubleshoot for you by right-
clicking the Wi-Fi icon in the taskbar and selectingTroubleshoot problems.
 I Keep Disconnecting From
the Wi-Fi
SOLUTION: Wireless problems can occur because of
several reasons (router, computer, ISP). If your Wi-Fi
signal is weak, it can cause disconnections and
slowness so make sure youre in range and are getting
decent reception. Next check that your computers
wireless adapter has up-to-date drivers. If none of this
works, call your ISP and see if they can help.
 Constant Security Warnings While
Browsing

SOLUTION:
While this may be one of the most annoying problems,
its also incredibly easy to fix.
Check that your computers clock shows the correct
time and date. If it doesnt, right-click on the clock and
select Change date and time settings to correct it
manually.
 The Printer Wont Print

SOLUTION:
If your printer has ink, paper, and updated drivers,
try unplugging it, then plugging it back in. If the
problem continues, double-click on the printer icon
on your taskbar and check to see what the printing
queue says. Click on the Printer menu item in the
printer window and make sure that Use Printer
Offline is not checked this will stall the printing
queue.
My Search Page Looks Weird
SOLUTION:Theres a type of malware called
Browser Hijackers, which take over your
browser and direct you to sites they want
you to see, for which they usually get paid.
These nasty pieces of software also steal
your private information, such as searches,
personal details, and even credit-card
number. Follow the instructions in #4, but if
all else fails, go to a specialist.
Im Getting Popups All the Time
SOLUTION:
If youre not browsing the internet, yet are still
getting popup ads, its most likely a form of
malware called Adware. These are sneaky
programs that can be tricky to get rid of. As in
#3, run a virus scan and a malware scan, and
search online for (advertiser name) adware
removal you should be able to find a solution .

1.PC SLOWDOWN
To eliminate the problem of PC slow performance you can take over the control
of numerous programs those are trying to run simultaneously. When you start
the computer, all the programs start simultaneously whether you want them or
not. To see which programs are set to run on startup:
Firstly open the start menu then click on the run button. By this Run dialog
box will be appear on your screen.

programs that starts to run when the computer boots up. Here you will find
that each entry have its checkbox where you can select and deselect to
specify whether you should run them or not.
After making the selection then click on OK button.
Then the computer will ask you to reboot and when it does that it displays a
message telling that youve changed startup configurations and choose the
2.LOCKUP AND FREEZING
The computer locks up due to cause of one or two problems .
In this situation the available memory of the computer is being consumed
then Cut down the running process in the PC by opening the task manager.
Then click on Ctrl+Shift+Esc at the same time. In the application tab
deactivate any of the programs that you are not using currently. Then select
the End task option to deactivate this program.
Then the second cause that lets the computer to freeze which is caused due
to overheating of computer. It the computer is kept in closed space where
there is no circulation of air then the circuits inside the computer case gets to
heat through sensitive materials that are of from processor and video card.
There is a fan system that is placed for moving air constantly over these
parts of the computer and even helps to cool the air. Make sure the fans are
running and the air can circulate around the system. Even the excessive
build up dust can also lead to freezing of the computer.
3.DATA LOSS
-It is best way to prevent the loss of data by backing up the data. It is
as simple as that. In todays world accessing the computer remotely
has become most common and important as the ability of the digital
media has become in the first place. There are many free storage
services online that you can use for protecting the data like videos,
photos and music. Often these resources are available for everyone
but people may not know about them. For example anyone with
windows live account who has been granted with 25 GB of storage
capacity on the Windows Sky Drive. Whereas the users of the Gmail
accounts are granted with several free GB of storage space where they
can save their Google Docs and even can keep photos, videos, outlets
including PhotoBucket, Twitpic, Flicker, Google Picasa and many more.
4.PROBLEMSS WHILE LOGGING
ONTO THE WEB
To diagnose the connectivity problems that can lead to lot of system to work in order to
get you online. Firstly you need to go to the Internet Service Provider for advanced help of
the connection settings. You can also try:
Firstly open the Control Panel and access the Network Settings dialog. In the Windows XP
there is an icon for this and in the Vista and Win 7 you will find the Network Sharing
Center where you can click on and Change Adaptor Settings.
Once you reach the right dialog it will say the Network Connections at the top and
where is a list of connections.
Here Right click on the connection icon that is giving problems depending upon the

options. One thing you can try to do is by disabling and re-enabling the adapter.
Then Right Click on the connection and choose the Disable option to make the
connection to gray out.
Then Right Click on the connection again and click to Enable.
5.KEEP YOUR SYSTEM UP TO
DATE
. Keep your system up to date
Many people things that it is very simple thing but many people may suffer errors,
compatibility problems and even the Web malfunctioning. It simply happens because
you may have not updated the software. The windows need the consistent updates to
keep the system protected and speed up with developments. To update Windows you
need to:
Firstly open the Control panel.
Then in the Windows XP click on the Windows Update. In the Win 7 and Vista you
can click on System and Security first.
Now find and click on the text labeled check for updates.
Peoples are afraid of getting update they cant make out among them which are
important and what are not. The best thing about the Microsoft wont force to update

PROBLEMS AND ITS
SULOTION
(GROUP 8)
BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH (BSoD)
Many people think of blue as a calming color; however, when it comes up on
your computer screen with a bunch of white text, it probably has the opposite
effect. The blue screen of death (BSoD or STOP Error) may appear to be one of
the scariest computer problems you'll come across. However, all your
computer may need is for you to reboot it. This STOP error appears on your
screen for a variety of reasons: failing hardware, damaged software, corrupt
DLL files, problems with drivers and more.

SOLUTION:
-The remedy for a blue screen of death depends on the original
problem. The screen provides you with codes that can help you identify and fix
your computer problems.
MISSING DLL FILE
Dynamic-Link Library (DLL) files house information for your operating system
on how to perform certain functions. Occasionally, your computer loses DLL
files or something damages them. When your PC can't read the particular DLL
file, it doesn't know how to respond in certain situations. You may have a
missing or corrupt DLL file if you receive an error message every time you
perform a certain function, such as saving.

SOLUTION:
-If your computer problems are stemming from
missing and damaged DLL files, you can restore them by
downloading them back onto your PC.
APPLICATION THAT WONT INSTALL
If you're having trouble with an application not installing, it
may be because your computer doesn't have enough hard
drive space. If this is the case, you need to free up some
space. This is one of the computer problems that's, well, least
problematic.

SOLUTION:
-You can free up some hard drive space by getting
rid of files and folders you don't need. These may be temporary
files, duplicate files or data for software you've uninstalled.
APPLICATIONS RUN SLOWLY
There are several reasons software might be running at
turtle speed. You may have computer problems that
involve your operating system or an application, your
operating system might be missing updates or your
computer doesn't have enough hard drive space.

SOLUTION:
-If you don't have enough hard drive space,
you can scan, clean and optimize your hard drive.
ABNORMAL APPLICATIONS
BEHAVIOR
Computer problems that involve applications acting
strangely oftentimes leave you wondering what has
happened. Your application has been working just fine,
but now, seemingly without reason, it is doing
something strange.

For instance, your Word document will no longer show

the top margin of your document. It still says it's there,
and when you print it, there's not a problem. You just
can't see it on your monitor.
 SOLUTION
-If this is happening, you may want to
restart your computer. Conducting an internet search for
the type of problem you're experiencing or consulting
your user manual may help you as well.

Five
Common
Computer
Problems
And
Solution
1. Blue Screen of Death (BSoD)

PROBLEM
Many people think of blue as a calming color;
however, when it comes up on your computer
screen with a bunch of white text, it probably has
the opposite effect. The blue screen of death
(BSoD or STOP Error) may appear to be one of the
scariest computer problems you'll come across.
SOLUTION
However, all your computer may need is for you
to reboot it. This STOP error appears on your
screen for a variety of reasons: failing hardware,
damaged software, corrupt DLL files, problems
with drivers and more. The remedy for a blue
screen of death depends on the original
problem. The screen provides you with codes
that can help you identify and fix your computer
problems.
 2. Missing DLL File
PROBLEM
Dynamic-Link Library (DLL) files house information for
your operating system on how to perform certain
functions. Occasionally, your computer loses DLL files
or something damages them. When your PC can't
read the particular DLL file, it doesn't know how to
respond in certain situations. You may have a missing
or corrupt DLL file if you receive an error message
every time you perform a certain function, such as
saving.
SOLUTION
If your computer problems are
stemming from missing and damaged
DLL files, you can restore them by
downloading them back onto your PC.
3. Applications That Won't Install

PROBLEM
If you're having trouble with an
application not installing, it may be
because your computer doesn't have
enough hard drive space.
SOLUTION
If this is the case, you need to free up some
space. This is one of the computer problems
that's, well, least problematic. You can free
up some hard drive space by getting rid of
files and folders you don't need. These may
be temporary files, duplicate files or data for
software you've uninstalled.
4. Applications Run Slowly
PROBLEM
There are several reasons software might be
running at turtle speed. You may have
computer problems that involve your
operating system or an application, your
operating system might be missing updates
or your computer doesn't have enough hard
drive space.
SOLUTION
If you don't have enough hard drive
space, you can scan, clean and
optimize your hard drive.
 5. Abnormal Applications Behavior
PROBLEM
Computer problems that involve applications acting
strangely oftentimes leave you wondering what has
happened. Your application has been working just fine,
but now, seemingly without reason, it is doing
something strange.
For instance, your Word document will no longer show
the top margin of your document. It still says it's there,
and when you print it, there's not a problem. You just
can't see it on your monitor.
 SOLUTION
If this is happening, you may want to
restart your computer. Conducting an
internet search for the type of
problem you're experiencing or
consulting your user manual may
help you as well.
