    well this is a nutural thing i'm afraid....usually caused by an old pc or an older hard disk or exception periods of hard disk activation...etc

    no cure!

    no matter your specs this is uncureable....try a new hard disk or a low level full format.

    hmm!!!!!! well
    Josh---try a format or a piece of gardware that will silance it (pc world can help)

    Hataz--- well there are two possibilities.
    1) the laptop screen is broken
    2) the destop settings are wrong
    if 2 then right click the desktop and go to properties. then settings.
    set to maximum colours and there is a control for screen size somewhere, normaly on the outside of the screen.

    *faints* cant think of a prob for my computer.... something must be wrong... question is.. is there somethin wrong with or with the computer? or both? :O well... my internet disconnects after 8 hours. and there are only two ways to connect to the net: either open IE or open the dialer program and click "connect"...

    its not a problem, just a setting i can't remember how to change it but 8 hours online is a lot so perhaps you can servive it.
