Hey Tech Guys . My brother and sis swore that you are the help of all help here.
I think my problems with this laptop is a multitude of things but maybe you can help on each one.

1st---My computer shuts off at start-up 75% of the time recently; maybe since August. It will get to the point of accepting my password to boot the system totally up and then it goes dark and blank. Nothing after that. I start it back up and then it boots up.

2nd-If it doesn't flicker from #1 then sometimes it will try to boot up and flash a blue screen with a bunch of white letters. When I cut it off and start it up again, it sends a message saying that windows just stopped the system from a blue screen.........This happens weekly.

3rd--One of my email accounts had someone else posing as me to my friends and was telling them to go to a certain site.I had no idea what was happening, and one of my yahoo friends called me via cell phone to ask me if I was on the net at like 2:30 in the morning! Had NOOO clue. Now I'm saying this because I don't know if this is part of the reason my computer is starting to be schitzo.

4th--Computer runs real so in the beginning; probably the 1st 10 minutes and then it works at regular speed, if I can get things working.

5th--Once a message said that my registry was corrupted. I never saw it again though.

This is all that I can think of. I have McAffee and many, many times the computer will start up but then say the computer is not protected and when I would click on McAffee it will show several items in red, as in it's been disabled. Then I would have to enable it again.

Help please! I can't get to my master's classes consistently :~S

Can you please post a few of your latest minidump files? They are located in C:\WINDOWS\Minidump. ZIP them and attach them to your next post.

[babybrown98]

How do I zip them?

[Phantom010]

Right-click on the minidump file, select Send To > Compressed (zipped) Folder. Save them to your desktop.

[babybrown98]

okay. 1st it says compressed (zipped) folders error
then it says file not found or no read permission

So it won't let me compress them

[Phantom010]

Try copying the files to the desktop or another folder and zip them from there.

[babybrown98]

what is it supposed to look like when I unzip them?

[Phantom010]

You don't need to unzip them. Attach the zipped files to your next post.

[babybrown98]

So, I may seem just a tad bit wetawdid in this field, but how do I attach these files on here? I don't see an attach button on here

[babybrown98]

file:///C:/Windows/Minidump/Mini110209-01.dmp

Did I do it correctly?
