Open Question: how do fix a laptop computer that says operating system not found for a sony vaio?
1. Turn on or reboot/restart the computer.
2. When the VAIO logo appears on the computer's screen, briefly press the F10 key on the computer keyboard. The VAIO Recovery Wizard appears. Note that depending on the model of Sony Vaio, you may have to press either the F11, F12 or the ESC key to enter this restore mode. This must be done before your operating system begins to load. If you see the Windows logo appear on screen, you'll have to restart and try again.
3. Choose the option on screen that is most appropriate to your needs. You will be presented with three options: you can either create a set of recovery discs, attempt to repair your operating system's installation, or restore your operating system. Repairing your operating system will attempt to fix your computer without deleting any of your personal files. Restoring your operating system will delete everything on your hard drive and return your computer to its original factory settings.
4. Wait for the restore process to complete. Depending on the type of restore you've tried, you may have to wait as little as a few minutes and as much as an hour or more. When the process is finished, the computer will automatically restart itself.

Open Question: Any way to up FPS on a Compaq Presario SR2013WM?
For a graphics card, check your computer by opening the side up and see if there is a PCI-e x16 slot. If there is you should be able to get away with any graphics card that doesn't have a power connector on the side of it. They are all <$100 USD
Ok and to make things clear, raid 0 deletes ALL your current data. He is right about the hard drive being the slowest part of your system but you will only see some improvements while loading and starting the game. "Loading" caches what you need onto the RAM so once you are done loading the hard drive is irrelevant

Open Question: What do I need to repair computer professionally?
If you feel you have the experience to take it on as a full blown business and you are going to have a shop to work out of then you need to find out what the city/state license requirements are. As far as the Federal requirements, you deal with that at the end of the year when you are doing your taxes and file Schedule C. At that point you will have to determine what is expected of you in the way of quarterly payments to offset you taxes for the following year.
You should be able to go online and access the city and state business license information for NY.
Open Question: Is my macbook pro fan malfunctioning?
I was using Fan Control and iStat pro to check on the fans... and it says only one fan is being used?
From checking online, I've read things that say the macbook pro has 1 fan, and others that say it has 2 -_-
In fan control: Left fan 2136rpm; Right fan: -1 rpm
In iStat: under fans it just says exhaust: 2068
So... should I take it to get looked at? Or am I just freaking out? :\
Open Question: Need your help in Chosing computer for Maya 2011 and Vue 9.5 Extreme Animation?
I am planning to purchase a new hardware for the Maya 2011 and Vue 9.5 Extreme Animation. Following is the config:-
Gigabyte GA890FXA-UD7 Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition
Nvidia Quadro FX 600 1GB DDR3 Graphics Card.
4GB DDR3 RAM Transcend.
1TB Hard Disk (Exclusively for Animation and nothing else)
18.5" TFT Monitor.
I am gonna load windows 7 on it for Maya 2011 and Vue 9.5 Extreme.
Now I have following questions:-
1. I am a beginner, but I want to use it for professional use in future for making movies, high profile advertisements etc, I have a budget constraint also but budget is not a limitation also. I will pay if it is really deserving my scenario and configuration. My vendor has quoted 39000 INR for the above configuration, Is it fair ? I understand that GPU is also important with CPU. So if I do not purchase Nvidia Quadro card, will it render at faster speed, or what difference does Nvidia Quadro card makes actually if it is there ? Secondly, I do not want to compromise on quality and speed of the system, so Is there any other cheap but equally efficient mother board, CPU which can perform the same task with same speed and efficiency but economically ? Or Shall I go for this above configuration ? I want to make Movies on the same system in the future, design high profile advertisements. Please suggest me whether I am going on a right track with right budget ?
I have heard that Asus Motherboards are good for graphics rendering. So does any Asus Motherboard surpass above Gigabyte , also please let me know

Open Question: Why is my computer so bad?
so poor thermal design, cheap parts, overall poor quality is not unknown to HP/Compaq.
the laptops also comes with crapware, which is useless junk you'd never need, it loads on start up every time and loads down the computer, uses up the resources and slows hte whole system down. worse, it can be hard to remove becasue
A: some of it doesn't come out in one go, its like a virus- very hard to remove
B: you can't tell whether its a important system/hardware program or its some crappy junk
C: you can't uninstall it unless you're in safe mode / you're not the admin even tho you're the admin.
Macs are different.
1 the operating system is way better than PC. its more efficient with resources and doesn't load down the computer.
2 all modern macs have been properly designed and made to a strict set of engineering controls set in place by apple
3 cosmetic (looks) are not before function & design. (most PCs look good- its to cover up shoddy construction and cutting corners on things like quality control & good thermal design)
4 the hardware is designed to work with a specific type of software, and vise versa for software, it will work with only a few kinds of hardware. this eliminates common compatibility issues found in PC systems.
how to fix your laptop and you don't have money to buy a new PC:
downgrade to windows XP. transfer files you want to save to a cd/dvd/flash drive, obtain a legal copy of windows XP, install windows XP on the computer after a full format of the hard drive.
^^ prior to install, its a good idea to get the various drivers you will need- such as the audio driver, wifi/network driver, webcam/mic driver, video driver. you may not have access to the internet immediately following the reinstall of windows. having the drivers available on a flash drive would make it so much easier.
&& also review, study up on how to reformat & install windows on a computer, its not really a complex process but sometimes things do go wrong, if you know some background info about it you're less likely to run into a problem you can't solve.
my brother had a HP laptop, and that was a piece of sh!t too.
i have been fixing & working with computers for many years. I have reformatted & installed windows on computers many many times. its not a complex process, not with XP anyway.
I have also de-crapifed 5 netbooks/laptops recently. that is to remove the crap ware & programs that all netbooks & laptops come with. stuff that makes your computer suck from day 1.
my brother owns a mac. i have a pc (desktop & netbook). my desktop & the mac has the same hardware, but the mac works probably 4X better. why Microsoft windows sucks.
