The fan was running on high, sounded like a jet plane. Very quiet now. Pulled the unit outside the cabinet and have it where it can get more air flow. Had this happen a few weeks ago, not as bad as this tho.

dust it out, leave the side panel off (i ran a PC for years with no side panel once)

get a program called "ccleaner" and clean out all the junk on your PC, then run a disk defrag. sometimes PC's can get angry and pin CPU usage to 100% for a while and get hot.

Don't use batteries, Chase... it is not a wireless. I had to pitch the wireless because it... well, it just plain sucked.

I will probably get a new one today... as long as I can find a cheap one, anyhow. Tired of playing with the dang thing.

ooo

usually when a wireless mouse starts acting funky lik ethat, and it is not dirty, it is the batteries/charge.

i use a wired laser mouse at work, and wireless at home, i have the logitech wave set at home and it works great, battery life is excellent

I enjoy computer stuff but when it gets technical, its like reading chinese.

Gladys · #53 02-11-2009, 07:00 PM

I can't log on at work. What's with that? It's says thanks for logging in Gladys, but then goes back to the log in screen.

Maybe your work has a block on it.

Can't get on google. Toolbar is not on my desktop anymore. Don't know how it disappeared, but I can't even search anything. Have to go to ask.com or comcast home page and still won't search right. Tried to download the toolbar again, but not happening, get a timed out page. Can anyone help. I use Firefox and I have never had this problem.

Kamma70 · #56 02-13-2009, 09:55 PM

Disregard the last post. I figured it out myself. My internet needed to be unplugged and reset and now is working fine again. Seems with this new modem I have to do this often....ok...thanks anyway

When I restart my computer I get an error box which reads....

ERROR LOADING C:\PROGRA~\MYWEBS~\bar\1.bin|M3PLUGGIN.DLL

The Specific Module Could No Be Found.

What the heck does that mean?

How do I open an swf file?

I believe using Adobe Flash.
