Hi. Sorry to hear about your problem. First thing to do is to check to see if an update from microsoft has turned on proxy settings for your browser. This is a recently common thing that happens if you let windows update install any and all updates automatically. So to check this you will need to follow these instructions: 1. Open Internet Explorer. Go up to the menu bar and click on Tools, then click on Internet Options. 2. When the window opens, click on the Connections tab at the top. 3. Then click on LAN Settings at the bottom. 4. In that window, make sure that "Use a Proxy server for your LAN" is not check marked. If it has a check mark in the box next to it, click on that box to remove the check mark. 5. Click OK to close that box, then click OK to close the Internet Options box. 6. Close then reopen Internet Explorer and type www.google.com into the address bar then hit enter.
If google comes up, then your issue is fixed. If not, reply here and we will troubleshoot further.

One of the RAM module may be incompatible. Are both RAM modules the same type and make?
Try inserting 1Gb RAM module at a time to see if the BIOS can see the RAM.

This problem usually requires the Operating System CD, but here are a few things you can try before having to have the OS CD:

Try loading the Last Known Good Configuration (your most recent settings that worked) by following these instructions:

1. To load the last known good configuration in Windows, reboot the computer.
2. Before the Windows Loading screen appears, press and hold your "F8 Key", this should bring up the "Windows Advanced Options Menu" as shown below.
3. Use your arrow keys to move to "Last Known Good Configuration" and press your Enter key.
4. As can be seen from the example below, you should be able to highlight and press enter to load the last known good configuration. Once completed the computer should restart and attempt to load into Windows.

Still unsuccessful? You will need the OS CD, unless you have the Recovery Console already installed and available using the Operating System Selection screen:

1. Start your computer by running the Recovery Console.
2. Run the chkdsk /p command on the drive, and then restart your computer.

If you are still unsuccessful, you will need to run an OS Repair using the Operating System CD, here are the steps:

Windows XP

1. Boot the computer using the XP CD. You may need to change the boot order in the system BIOS so the CD boots before the hard drive. Check your system documentation for steps to access the BIOS and change the boot order.
2. When you see the "Welcome To Setup" screen, you will see the options below:
3. Press ENTER to start the Windows Setup.
4. Accept the License Agreement and Windows will search for existing Windows installations.
5. Select the XP installation you want to repair from the list and press R to start the repair. If Repair is not one of the options, END setup.
6. Setup will copy the necessary files to the hard drive and reboot. Do not press any key to boot from CD when the message appears. Setup will continue as if it were doing a clean install, but your applications and settings will remain intact.

Windows Vista

If you have a Windows Vista installation disc, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disc, the option to repair your computer will not appear.
Here is a step by step picture guide.

If you have a Windows Vista installation disc:

1. Insert the installation disc.
   
2. Restart your computer.
   Click the Start button , click the arrow next to the Lock button , and then click Restart.
   
3. If prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
   

Windows 7

1. If a startup problem is detected, Startup Repair will start automatically and try to fix the problem.
2. If the problem is severe enough that Startup Repair doesn't start on its own and you can't access the System Recovery Options menu on your computer's hard disk, you can get to the menu and start Startup Repair by using the Windows installation disc or a system repair disc that you created earlier.

Downloading programs would not cause the type of problem you're having. It should be a hardware issue only.

1.The bottom area of your screen is close to a small curcuit panel behind the bottom plastic border of the screen frame. This little panel/bar is called the Screen Inverter. If its connection plug has loosened it could be the culprit.

2. The Display Cable behind the screen panel has become partially unplugged or damaged in some way at the top of the screen, or, it has looseened at its plug connector just underneath the back edge of the power strip panel/keybaord area so that pressure applied to the bottom of the screen frame makes it connect correctly.

3. The Screen Panel itself is failing.

These are the 3 areas I'd say you should have a laptop repair tech look at locally in your area.
