A clients computer that I was working on had a weird problem where once the computer screen would become black right after the Windows Loading Logo finishes. In other words, once you enter the login screen or load up windows the screen will go black.

The first test you should do is to boot into safe mode. To do so, turn on the computer and repeatedly hit the F8 key and choose Safe Mode. Once done, boot into safe mode and if it displays correctly that means it is most likely a bad driver installed for your display adapter. In safe mode uninstall the driver currently being used for your display adapter then restart the computer. Now find the correct drivers for your video adapter online, download it, and then install it.

In today’s economy is it important to save as much money as possible. Our economy is not as stable as it use to be, and a recession is pending. The cost of living and gas is also at a record breaking price. For many companies due to the rise of living and gas costs, profits might be minimal, leaving employers unhappy.

This was a very weird problem where my friend could not visit secure sites that use HTTPS protocol. Also the person could not send emails. After some quick troubleshooting I found out that a person using administrative privileges can visit all the sites fine, however, since the account had limited access it could not.

If you are suffering from this then you might have Norton Internet Secuirty, which is a terrible security suite. If so I suggest you just uninstall it to save you all the hassle because that is most likely the culprit.

Do you have a computer that is constantly stuck trying to get an IP address? You may look at the task bar and see your network connection animated with a tiny yellow ball for quite some time, constantly looking for an assigned IP address.
