Sorry I can’t help you with this. I’m a total non-techie. You could try doing a Google search about your problem and see if you find others with the same experience. I’ve done that and have sometimes found solutions that way. Good luck and don’t get too frustrated. As a last resort, you could treat yourself to a new computer!

I have a Dell Latitude Laptop using Windows XP. I took it to Geek Squad because it was skipping and the freezing up when I played DVDs or any kind of audio. When it freezes I have to turn it off witut shutting it down. It also wouldn't freeze right away..it freezes into about 10 minutes of playing the DVD. It was also making weird noises when it froze. Best Buy informed me that the noise wasn't any hardware issue, but the kind of noise the computer makes when it's frozen. They said nothing was wrong hardware wise, and that I had 6 viruses on the laptop. Well now, all those viruses are removed, and my laptop is still skipping and freezing when I play DVDs..to the point where I have to turn off the computer without shutting it down. Also, now it freezes and makes a weird noises when I'm not playing any audio. If it's not viruses, and geek squad said everything is fine with the computer physically, then what is it? santoramaa

Hey Carol, I love to read your blog. I got your email and as soon as I saw the words “Every child Needs a Hero” it gave me an idea for an article so I went off to write but now I’m back to read to more. Pretty good stuff. Thanks Carol
