What do I do if downloading VLC player screwed up my laptop?
I have a Dell Studio 15, its less than six months old. For one of my classes I had to watch a movie that my professor posted online, when it wouldn’t open with Windows Media Player, he said to download VLC player. So i did, and i still couldnt get the movie to load. Now, i’m having problems with my internet. It’s running extremely slow, freezing frequently, and i have problems if i have more than one page/tab open at once or am messaging somebody. Sometimes it will just close itself. The same goes for internet related programs such as skype and itunes. I tried uninstalling VLC player, but it has not helped. What should I do?
Nagesh answers:
VLC wouldn`t cause any problems for your computer.
It seems likely that you have malware.
Boot into safe mode with networking, by tapping F8 at startup.
Download malwarebytes (free version), update and do a quick scan, remove all selected when the scan is finished.
Then repeat with a full scan.
Also do a scan with your antivirus software.

Does anyone know where i might be able to watch it online? I don’t want to download it or pay, or take a stupid quiz. Just if anyone knows please answer me. Thanks alot. Oh and the movie is called “Girl” Starring Dominque Swain, Sean Patrick Flanery<3, Tara Reid +more. I love those 3 characters the most. I think Tara Reid played an amazing person in the movie named Cybil. She is sso hot in that movie. Ha and no homo.

honest opinion on who gets the new computer?
Ok i am really frustrated because my 14 yr old brothers believes he will be getting a brand new laptop that he can download lots of gaming software and shit on it and become like some hardcore gamer or something. I’m a 16 yr old girl who likes to watch shows and facebook and movies and also needs a good laptop that i can do all my schoolwork on and editing softwares.
My brother is becomeing unhealthly addicted to electronics and everytime we get a new electronic he will completely hog it!!
Last christmas we got an XBOX 360 and i had to pay for half of it and he promised we could share it; he used it everyday all day and night and would never let me go on, and he stole money from my parents to buy points and shit and soooo many games, none of which he would ever let me use. So even if he was off doing something else and i wanted to play on OUR xbox – which was ALOT! he would hide the games so i couldn’t!!! its so horrible and he refers to it as HIS and completely lied and controlled me. Next we got a laptop after our other computer died for us to SHARE and he took over that never letting it go keeping it in his room and downloading SOOOOO much on it so it is so slow, he pirates lots of games and software like steam and all this shit and can’t even use it!! everytime i say its my turn he always says I DON”T CARE. When i say how would you like if i was doing this to you! he says I DON’T CARE. So sometimes i have to physically rip it off him to use it and then i can only go on for 1 hr before he trys to kill himself or somethiing crazy and i have to give it back. He is on till 5am everynight and uses up all our USAGE so the internet gets crazy SLOOOW so that i can’t even go on my phone!! its so annoying and frustrating because he doesn’t care and i do everything for him and he thinks he owns it, btw he also has an ipod touch.. NOW we will be getting a new computer so that i can actually use it because i would be lucky if i have internet for 3 hrs a week. AND HE thinks he will be getting the new computer and i will have the one that he has broken (literally broken the side and keys from having it in bed) and slow as fuck. Wheen i have been waiting patiently and he has hogged all the electronics. IF HE GET A NEW ONE. He will be stealing and taking money to buy WOW and others hardcore games online using up all usage and i won’t be able to do any work or communicate like a normal 16yr old girl should. I AM THE OLDEST and most responible! Who do you think deserves it and what should we do!! do you think my brother is being unreasonable and ignorant!? this is the full story my brother even says I KNOW I DO i don’t share but i don’t care i want! HES SO HORRIBLE. Don’t tell me to buy my own I CAN’T AFFORD IT. Don’t tell me to tell my parents THEY DO NOT CARE they are on the other side of the world and my LAZY NEVER HOME cousin is looking after me and he doesn’t care. My brother is upstairs right now on it. I am on my cousins computer that he said i could go on for 20min ONLY. PLEASE ANSWER.
Nagesh answers:
Yes, I am a 14 year old guy, and what your brother is doing is ridiculous, you very well deserve this new laptop.
Charles asks…
Macbook Vs. iMac? Which is better for me?
I want to get a new Mac computer but can’t decided whether to get a Macbook or an iMac.
My uses for a computer tend to be mostly for watching movies & listening to music, video & music editing, & just browsing online.
I used to be a big gamer but now I don’t play games on the computer (asides from flash games online)
I’m bout to go to college soon.
Whether i get a MB or an iMac i intend to get the min. setting due to money and my current computer is about 5 years old and though I am an up-to-date-with tech nerd wanting the latest graphics and etc, i’m fine with this computer and as i said i don’t intend to play any games like Bioshock on my computer, (i have an xbox 360)
don’t need the extra 2.8GHz nor 2+ GB memory.
I have an external HD & a 20 in. monitor so HD and monitor size isn’t an issue.
My main issue is, i do tend to download a LOT. So i keep the computer on for days trying to download the 2 GB files.
Can the MB handle being left plugged in over night or even for days?
Nagesh answers:
Well the meat of the question is Laptop vs. Desktop. From what you are telling of your situation, I’d go with the MacBook. If you get the Mac Book, Pro, It’s actually one of the best gaming laptops out there, giving Alienware a run for it’s money. Siince that’s not what you are into, the plain Macbook should suit your needs just fine. Laptops, any of them can be left running overnight, for weeks at a time if need be and they are just fine. I’d definetly get the Macbook, the portability is the reason, Watching movies, with the laptop you can carry it from room to room, plug it into a television just about anywhere and watch your movie. When you come home from college, your macbook can come home with you. That’s stuff you just can’t do with a desktop.
