After upgrading to 11.10, the DVD/CD Rom stopped working. I have a Compaq Presario R3000 Laptop, and I can't find any information regarding my CD/DVD Rom in the BIOS.
How do I make my CD/DVD Rom work?
I’m trying to figure what to do with random failures to boot.
My old HP Presario R3000 with AMD Athlon XP-M sometimes boots, sometimes hangs with a blank screen during boot, and sometimes hangs on shutdown.
Hello everybody.
Here is the problem I've been fighting with for a few days now: my Windows XP laptop stopped booting, throwing blue screen at me with "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME" error. Long story short, I found out the reason was that the NTFS partition of my HDD that Windows was installed on got corrupted somehow.
First I decided to solve Windows trouble with Windows stuff.

I have a COMPAQ Presario CQ70 laptop with an Intel GM45 chipset that features the Mobile Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500MHD. I was using the second HDMI video port to drive both a projector or a second monitor.

Hi and thanks for your help.
I have the following situation.
My Activity is bound to a Service that performs heavy data retrival from internet via an AsyncTask.
Good morning all.
Yesterday, 3.6.2-1 was installed on my laptop (previously on 3.4.11) that is running FC16. The kernel was the PAE version:
Oct 23 07:59:03 retsol610 yum[2861]: Installed: kernel-PAE-devel-3.6.2-1.fc16.i686
On powering up the laptop this morning, GRUB showed the 3.6 kernel ok, but once selected, the screen just went blank (completely black) and the disc light showed no activity.
I'm trying to set up a dual boot of Ubuntu and Windows 7 on my laptop, but Ubuntu refuses to install. I tried it a few months ago and got some error at the point when it was partitioning and reformatting the drive, but I can't remember specifically what it said.
I have a clock done by updating a TextView text using a Runnable. When I'm in the Activity the TextView is updated properly, but when I leave and come back to the activity, the code in the run() method is not executed anymore.
Do I have to call run() again in the onResume of my activity? Why?
