Hello

I have a new Acer aspire1414 laptop. It gave me a ‘Read Error’ and aborted Test when I attempted an HD Tune test. I tried rebooting and defragmenting. But I still get this error. It doesn’t get a crash and it can play games at a good speed. Additionally, the BIOS of this system have been maintained at the default optimal level. The HD Tune error check that I ran also appears to be fine. But when I try to run HD Tune Benchmark, I get this ‘Read Error’. Is this indicative of my hard disk health? Is there anything that I should be concerned of? Somebody please help me. Thanks a lot for your valuable help. Regards

Hi there,

I was playing on my HP Omini 220 desktop when I smelled burnt plastic, on investigation, I saw fumes  of smoke coming from my Power Supply Unit, I quickly unplugged my computer from the wall socket without switching it off, I opened the casing and saw a smoked fuse, I replaced the PSU with CORSAIR750 watts, the same model as the previous one, the motherboard LEDS are going on well but the computer won't boot, what could be the problem and how can I fix this?

Hello experts,

When looking at my camera, the videos and images are still there. But I cannot get it anymore when I connect it on my computer. The images and video files are stored on my SanDisk 4GB SDHC. I'm not sure what happened but I was able to get my files before this on my Mac PC. I tried other cables and a memory card reader. But it won't recognize the card. What should I do? Can I recover my files?
