How can I copy everything off my old hard drive onto my new hard drive and use the old one as a backup? 

by on May 13, 2013

Q: I have a Dell XPS 720 PC running Windows XP. I just purchased a 2nd hard drive. I want to set it up with many of the programs already installed on the 1st drive and then REMOVE it and put it away somewhere. If anything happens to the 1st I will use the 2nd as a back-up.
That being said, I have had zero problems with my computer. I removed the 1st drive and put in the 2nd. I turned the computer on and it said the it could not Boot. I put the Operating System CD into the disc drive, shut the machine off and restarted it. The progress bar went to the end but just before going on to the desktop the machine restarted itself. This happened repeatedly.
I removed the 2nd hard drive and the 1st back in. Turned the computer on and it started without issue.
What am I missing?

by on May 13, 2013

Q: Hi, I’m working on a “how to” manual. I’ve created the full how to document in Word with a table of contents.

What I want to do next is be able to have an option of a) viewing the whole text and b) have a way to click on a header in the table of contents and have the scroll go directly to that particular page of information.

Can you tell me how to create the click and go to portion?

How do I get my computer back to normal after an expert fixed it? 

by on May 10, 2013

Q: Recently my pc stopped working correctly. I had to type in DOS commands to get to Windows and I got tired of having to do this. I took my pc to a computer “expert” and left it there for a week.

The “expert” had called and asked me for my email address and passsword so he could set up my email account as it had been before he “fixed” it.

And “fix ” it he did.

During this time somone ordered 2 /$100 gift cards from Walmart online using my WalMart account.

Next the person hacked into my pay as you go cell phone account and the minutes I had purchased vanished. In both cases the email addresses and passwords were changed.

I found this out when I got the computer back and the emails were hung up in my ISP mailbox and I was able to read them.

Additionally, instead of fixing the problem the “expert” replaced my hard drive and kept the old one.

My business website was on that hard drive, so I lost my 88 page website and the software I was using as the version of Windows the “expert” downloaded was not compatible with the version required for the software.

This “expert” has a #1 rating in the county.

Anyway, the spell chack was deleted.
I get an error message saying that the spell check does not support the language I am using and to please select another language.

Apparently the spell check does not support English.

How can I fix this?

Secondly, from time to time a small red bar at the bottom right corner of webpages appears.

What is that about?

Thirdly, my computer disconnects from the internet about every 10 minutes as long as the computer is on.
I have to run diagnose and repair and reset the local adapter.

How do I repair this permanently?

Thank you!

How do I change the default action when inserting an SD card into my computer? 

by on May 9, 2013

Q: I inserted an SD card into my HP Envy tower and on my monitor, it prompted options of what I wanted to do. Instead of importing pictures, I accidentally clicked something else. Now everytime I insert the SD Card, it automatically sends me to that other program I clicked (which is like a video editing program). How do I change this or how to I access the import pictures menu that was prompted before?
