Operating system not found. What do I do?

I turned on my laptop, HP, and while it was trying to boot up I saw the error "operating system not found". I'm am actually on my laptop now and it works, but it took forever to load up. It went to a black screen with the cursor blinking for a while then it loaded windows.

I don't know if it's the bios has an problem or something that's causing my computer to not load properly. sometimes it just freezes at the startup and doesn't even go tot he black screen. I usually just do a hard reset several times before it works or it doesn't work and I just give up.

So, I really don't want to turn my computer off because I'm afraid that I can't get it to load up again. What do I do? I've been to several forums but I'm not sure what to do still. I don't think any hardware is loose otherwise I wouldn't be able to load my windows and type this question. Could it be a registry error? I really am thinking that it has to be an error with bios, but I don't know. What do I do?

Windows is your problem, Windows is every ones problem, Once windows users admit that to themselves then they will be able to get on with their computer life, and switch to another faster more stable and secure operating system,

Windows is not the only operating system available to computer users there are many free operating systems with all the application software, also free, Did you know Google do a free operating system called chrome, Intel have a free operating system called Mobiln. and then there are many other Linux operating systems to pick from, You need to check these other operating systems out, They will be releasing their now 2010 versions at the end of this month. Linux Operating systems are upgraded twice a year, not every 5 years like Microsoft,

Check it out here
http://www.distrowatch.com there are over 100, free operating systems on this website

I would recommend Linux mint 8 to you,

The iPad is quickly becoming another hugely popular electronic device from the guys over at Apple. And if you have already bought your Apple iPad - then you know why. And as far as priorities go, keeping your iPad safe and sound while traveling should be taken seriously.

Many of us have decided that a protective ipad case is definitely an O.K. route to go- as long as we buy a Protective iPad Cover/Case that is more than capable of keeping our iPad completely safe from harm.

But when it comes to long distance travel - or keeping your iPad and other various iPad extra's safe and secure- its definitely a good idea to buy an Ipad bag - Online or at your local electronics store.

The best iPad bags will offer you great protection and help you to access the Ipad quickly and easily from whereever - whenever you want.

I have found that there are some very good iPad bags at the 'Skooba Designs' laptop/iPad Bags and accessories online store.

There are many different designs that will add a little style , along with some peace of mind while travelling , either long-distance or just some everyday stuff- like school or work or whatever.

One Of my favorite iPad Bags is the 'Checkthrough Roller' - designed by the creative genius' at 'Skooba Designs'.....

The patent-pending Checkthrough® Roller is a sleek, lightweight rolling laptop/business/travel case designed and rigorously-tested to be "checkpoint-friendly," so you can run it through airport x-ray screening without removing your computer.*

The bag opens and hinges in the middle to separate and isolate the laptop compartment from the rest of the bag. For initial, immediate visual reference, the laptop can be seen by the inspector through a clear, quick-recognition window that is exposed when the bag is unfolded. With the window facing up, the bag is sent through x-ray screening. The design of the laptop compartment is such that the image presented to the screener is the same as if the laptop were removed and placed in a bin. The Checkthrough bag and all of its contents can be carried securely with or without the hinge zipped shut, so it can be readied in line, prior to screening. Once through, the traveler can simply pick up the bag and go, zipping it back up on the move or at the gate.

*All Skooba checkpoint-friendly bags have been designed and rigorously tested in close collaboration with the TSA, and meet all of the necessary requirements. It is the user's responsibility to make sure any checkpoint-friendly bag is packed and used as specified. In all instances, screening personnel always have the right to require laptop removal, secondary screening, or any other measures deemed necessary to ensure travel security.

Laptop fan loud/runs all the time?

I have a compaq Evo N620c, its fan makes a loud noise, also it runs alot, more like all the time, even if i am running simple applications, or just doing minimal tasks. I am wondering if this is normal for the fan to work alot like that and if I can do anything to reduce the time the fan is working
i usually leave it working all the day, when i dont need it i just put it on standby, i never turn if off or hibernate it during the day..don't know if this has anything to do with it.

If it's running that often, then the processor is running hot enough for the fan to NEED to run that often. You might try cleaning dust out of the bottom if there is any, and replacing the thermal paste on the CPU if (and ONLY if) you have the technical knowledge to do so.
