Now you will find one Month Calendar window with Dates below, go to the previous month by clicking the '<' sign in the upper left hand corner of the Month Calendar and select any date that you see in Bold.

The detail of that particular date should show "System Checkpoint" and time on the right hand side box. Select that date.

Now, Click on Next and System Restore will start and windows will take a reboot.

Plug in a usb mouse, uninstall the synaptics driver and reinstall it

When it hangs if you wait does it come back to life again?
I'd strongly reccomend installing a new operating system, maybe on a different drive to save your current one, and see if it still hangs on that.
I've had this issue with countless pc's, unfortunately I've always gone through my usual processes and fixed it without ever knowing (or caring) why it happened in the first place. But I'd start with a new installation of the operating system on a different hard drive as the first step in your diagnosis for sure. I'd also say its very likely that will fix it anyway, and if it doesnt then its a hardware issue of some kind (can be diagnosed further to find out exactly what)

Hi.

Look at the top right of the keyboard for key which has "prtsc" prtscr" or Print Screen" on it. The key is usually located to right of the F12 key.
As soon as you have hit the print screen key open up paint which is located by clicking on the start menu > all programs > accessories > paint.

When paint has opened and in the middle of the window right click your mouse and select paste. You will then see a screen shot of your desktop appear. To save it choose either save or save as.

Backlight is turning off.
The inverter has a problem, or the bulb itself needs to be replaced.
See if you can find a cheap inverter and replace that first. It's almost always the problem.
If you see any bad capacitors on the inverter board when you are removing it, you may want to try repairing the inverter board first before getting a replacement.

If however the screen has a purplish color where it should be white (for the duration that it IS on) then the bulb is the issue.

go to your BIOS setting

There set the current date and time
[while starting the computer , there will be screen showing options keys for bios setting (it will probably be esc or f12 or f2 or f11)]

incorrect driver or corrupted installation of driver(1)
virus,malicious code(2)
delete driver and start installation fresh,make sure internet connection is working,if you download driver from net.
If you dont erase and start new installation of driver,corrupted code/virus will re-appear

If your laptop appears to boot up and the hard disk LEDflashes, then the problem is probably a back light fault. This can be a faultyinverter or a faulty CCFL lamp. Please click on this link and follow myinstructions to identify the fault and possible fix :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r3598095-faulty_laptop_lcd_screen

Check your internet settings connection, to dial up your connection to modem, if not function check it if wat is compatible to your pc notebook.

Hi, CLICK HERE to go to download page. Select your operating system on the page and you will have access to all the drivers for that model. There are 2 possible graphics adapters listed. ATI, and Intel. Try Intel first as most of the ones I have seen have this VGA. If during installation it stops and tells you " no device found setup will now exit" then try the ATI driver package.

try to go to www.hp.com and type on the search box for the nc6220 drivers and download it straight to your pc..

1 many times the the CD cant load as the files in the CD are corrupt or the CD is not read by the drive corectly...so get a new WinXP CD

BIOS screen can be enabled by pressing the F1, or F2 or the Del key as on as you start the PC
3 once in BIOS screen look for boot seq and change the boot drive to the foll
1st boot device - USB CD / DVD rom drive
2nd boot device - internal CD rom drive
and so on

if you can do the above then try the WinXP installation using the external CD rom drive....
else there is a little complicated method of using a pen drive thru USB (will discuss that later) provided your BIOS alows booting from USB

Copied from one of my earlier solutions:

Here are some tips for speeding up a computer:

-Remove programs from your Windows startup by pressing Win+R and typing msconfig.
-Uninstall programs you don't need
-Use CCleaner to clean up unneeded temporary files
-Disable windows services (look up a guide on Google for a list of services you can safely disable)
-Keep your software up to date.
-Look for suspicious processes in your task manager and Google them to see if they are viruses.

These tips won't help much if the slowness of your computer is caused by a specific problem like a damaged part, but they usually make your computer a little more responsive.

If you have any specific issues that could be causing this, list them here.

try reinstalling the driver for the mouse pad

that should go fine

Perform a hard reset, which is where you just turn the computer off using the power button (usually have to hold) then take the batter out and press and hold the power button, and lastly put the battery back in and turn the laptop on.

It is better if you can execute a reputable and up to date antivirus application from a Bootable media to remove this virus.

However, the following link may help:

Hope it helps and good luck!
