    Hmmm – very odd situation… But at least you have managed to resolve it; though quite why resetting the computer (by that I take it you mean re-installing the OS) resolved it – who knows…

    It might have been a chipset issue or possibly something to do with the usb hub/bridge etc. within the computer and its associated drivers etc? Possibly when you “reset” it all you replaced (as in installed anew) whichever bit of software (drivers?) that was not as it might or ought to have been?

    Thanks for posting back too with how you “phyxed it” – doesn’t often happen…

    Apparently it’s a netbook..
    E.g.
    Fujitsu LifeBook T4215 Tablet (Core 2 Duo 2GHz, 1GB RAM, 100GB HDD)
    http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/fuj…

    Has this LifeBook T4215 been dropped ? Has it had liquid spilled on it ?

    “1) What does flashing Scroll-Lock mean? “

    I searched for: LifeBook T4215 flashing led

    I found this ….

    NoteBook Frequently Asked Questions
    http://uk.ts.fujitsu.com/rl/service…

    See the table of symptoms near the end of the page after this……

    “32. My machine doesn’t start – I have blinking symbols on the status display.
    Newer systems do not use Beep codes. The error is coded by using 3 indicators.”

    You have a memory problem.

    Try re-seating the ram module(s).

    If that doesn’t help…….

    You can get oddball symptoms if any of the installed ram is incompatible. E.g., it won’t boot normally, no video, no mboard beeps (when the mboard is capable of producing them).

    If you’re not sure if the installed ram is compatible, install at least one module that you can confirm is compatible with being installed in the model..

    “2) Does this computer have flash or BATTERY-BACKED CMOS? Might this computer need a new CMOS COIN-style battery?”

    As far as I have seen / read about, all modern laptops and netbooks have both a battery backed Cmos / bios chip, and a flash chip that can’t have the user contents such as passwords erased by removing the power to it.
    Generically, it may have a non-rechargable or a rechargable battery; it may be a coin cell battery or another type.

    I’ve never come across or heard of ANY computer that failed to boot because the cmos battery was too weak or dead, but I suppose you may have oddball symptoms if it were shorted.

    “3) Is there a way to do a low-level RESET?”

    I have no idea what you mean when you say that, but I suspect NO.

    “is their any way to fasten the game play”

    No, not with that laptop. It’s considered a business laptop, not a gamer, & it has a weak graphics chip. You should be able to play older games on low settings but you can forget about modern games (unless they have low system requirements). If you want to be able to play games & play them well, you’re going to have to buy a new “gaming” laptop. Entry level gamers start at about $1000.

    Rbul13, you are looking in the properties window of a shortcut to My Computer.

    If you right-click My Computer and go to Properties, you open up the System Properties window, which includes the tabs General, Computer name, Hardware, Advanced, System restore, Automatic updates, and Remote. There is no Tools tab.

    If you right-click a shortcut and go to Properties, you open up the properties window of that shortcut, which includes the tabs General, Shortcut, and perhaps Compatibility. No Tools tab there either.

    You can tell the icon you clicked is a shortcut three ways: 1.) It has a Shortcut tab within the Properties window, and 2.) The icon itself has a small black arrow on a white background in the lower left corner. That is unless someone adjusted the registry and hid those shortcut arrow identifiers. 3.) Right-clicking the icon also has options for Send to, Cut, and Copy. The real one doesn’t.

    If you wanted to put the real My Computer icon on your Desktop or Start menu (not a shortcut), right-click the Start menu and go to Properties > Start menu tab > Customize button > Advanced tab > scroll to the My Computer section > select the radio button “Display as a link”.

    That will get it on your Start Menu. Then, right-click it and click the “Show on Desktop” option. You can now go back to the Start Menu Properties and disable it from the Start Menu if you so choose. It will remain on the Desktop.

    You can access the System Properties window by typing the following in the Start > Run dialog box: sysdm.cpl

    Are you trying to access the Tools window from a Windows Explorer window perhaps? Windows Explorer is the program that you use to traverse through your folders. If you open up My Computer, My Documents, or one you perhaps called “Rbul’s awesome stuff”, you’re opening up Windows Explorer.

    The common item accessed from that Tools menu is the Folder Options window. You can also access that quickly by going to Start > Run and typing in control folders

    Apologies if I don’t respond to your reply immediately. I don’t check this site daily, but you’re welcome to PM me as a reminder.
