Hello everyone! we all have PC' or laptop and all we use them everyday and some even sit on them the whole day long. and the more we use them, the more problems we have with them. So that's why my questions is: Do you know how to fix the bugs on your OS? or you just call the service?

The first thing I do is to check in the net, if I'm unable to fix it, I call some friend and if it is so bad my friend can't do a thing, I call to service.

Well in 99% of cases I solve problems by my own if There is error of hardware replacement or Internet server issues which can't be handled at our end, in those cases I call to my vendor or ISP for respective problem.

If I have a problem I always call a friend or the service. I don't have the slightest idea how to fix the problem. Luckily I haven't had too many problems yet. If I have a serious problem I don't know what I will do!

I would like to be able to fix the bugs on my own, but I just don't know that much about it. I do the scans and defrags and stuff, but sometimes they don't get all the bugs. My friend had a computer that they ran all the scans and stuff and it still had a virus. They ended up having to take it somewhere (her husband is good with computers and he couldn't fix it). It turned out they had 7 bugs!

hello! well, it is really nice that you haven't had some big bugs in recently, but don't you think that it would be helpful to you, to learn how to fix some bugs by your own?

Format the whole system, the bugs it cannot be fixed by cleaner then use formatting to fix the bugs..OS is hard to fix by cleaner registry try to reformat your system and re in install..Remember to back up the data/files before formatting. Happy myLotting!

I don't think it cannot be transfer or move to any external HDD or flash drive all the data from HDD can be move,unless you are aware of doing..before format try to transfer all data in some external HDD,,to avoid losing data/files.If you think its complicated to do so, use cleaner registry to fix the bugs otherwise you have to asked someone to crash the whole system and re install.

Hello CLoud! Yeah, the formating is still the best decision, but what would you do if you have some important data on your HDD and can't store it on a flash or removable HDD? you know that bugs can be fixed best if we deep format the whole HDD c: and d: and not only the partition where the OS is? :)

yeah, i knowhow to transfer the data, but I don't have an external HDD and my flash drive is only 4GB, which is not enough to back-up all the data I need :(

I can usually manage to deal with whatever issues arise. It is very important to be able to understand why errors occur because using outside help can be a very expensive practice. I rarely have many problems, but the ocassional software or hardware issue will happen from time to time.
30 Mar 10
yeah, it is reallty important to know all the reason about the problems that accure, but we actually can't know them all so fast, it needs time to learn the most of them!

Even I try to fix some minor bugs on my operating system. As long as I can find out what is the exact problem, I can get the answer on some forum or the other. But if internet has a problem then I think I might get stuck and have to wait for the service guy to come and help me out.
30 Mar 10
yeah, the online forums for a software and OS support are something really helpful and I have used them really many times, ni order to solve my problems with the softwares

What bugs for example? What's really your problem with your computer? First the bugs can just be causes by virus so scan your computer. Second thing that you can do is do a system restore, it may also solve the problem, third is you can reinstall the OS, Fourth is to reformat your hard disk. You can use the four of them to fix the bugs on your computer. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!
30 Mar 10
all the bugs!well, i don't have a problem with my computer, i am just curious do you know how to fix the bugs in your softwares and OS?yeah, the re-install is the best decision with a deep hard drive format before that, but it all needs some time!

Well I will admit that I dont know how to fix all the problems with my laptop or computer .I can help myself with defragging and so on but for somethings I have a friend who I normally go to help me with these issues
29 Mar 10
well, I don't think that defragmenting can fix some big bugs of the OS, but it is cool that you have a friend who can help you about that i do all the things by my own, because I am really good in these things

As long that we have the internet, YES =) just type your problem on the search bar then read read read. =) if no results, then all i can do is to reformat my PC/laptop(if necessary).
29 Mar 10
well,yes,nowadays internet is so big source of informations and there are so online forums where we can discussed about our problems and if there is no answer then we can just format the HDD and re-install the OS, but what if you have some important data no it? what then :)

most of the time those are tackled by me. if there is a bug in my operating system then there is no way to clear this as i am not a big big programmer of an OS. but some general cases i could resolve easily and those are really not a big deal for me in many cases.
30 Mar 10
hi! I guess we all or at least hope so, can resolve the little bugs in the OS of our computers, but it would be nice if we all can also fix all these bugs or the most of them by our own, so that we not give some money for services when we can do it alone. so you can see some tips in the PC forums, so that you can learn some of the common problems and their resolves
