willfir
In all honesty I'm not sure if this is hardware or software, HP seem to think it's my power cable. . . That seems laughable to me, but it would be hardware so here I am. Please move me if I'm wrong On with the problems! I had a fully functioning printer last week (HP Deskjet F2480 if it's relevant).

none_123
Hello. I need a driver. Searching the internet, I found your site. Thank you for your availability. Where do I find the driver referenced? I have tried 3com & driverguide, among others. I understand that I could use a new NIC from fine companies such as D Link.

IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

harry569
Computers been crashing + freezing + restarting for ages. Often before it restarted or crashed, the sound would dissapear, followed by the mouse and keyboard not working, then restart. I used to reformat the pc and it would solve the problem for a day or two, it got worse.
