I had such a simple problem, a new laptop hard drive in an
external case that windows was not assigning a drive letter to,
and found your straight forward answer for how to 'fdisk' a
drive using XP through a Google search. XP help was no good, nor
was Microsoft's website. Your site gave me the answer and I'm
still puzzled as to why Microsoft wasn't able to show me what to
do. Thanks. (Randy)
I am a late bloomer to the Computer Field. Sites like this
help me do my job better. (Oakwind)
Excellent site. My other laptop wouldn't start up and it
kept going to a blue error page. I know very little about
computers and was so worried that I would have to send it away
to be fixed somewhere. But after searching the net, I found this
site, typed in my problem and you provided a solution. Thank you
so much. It was easy step by step instructions, that were simple
for someone like me who hasn't got a clue, to follow. I have
since fixed my other computer. Thanks again!! (Gemma)
Your Web site is truly a big help for a layman like me.
Congrats. (Kaulayaw)
This is great site I plan to be back often. This is what the
Internet should be a source of information. thank you again.
(Hammer300md)
One reason I keep using your website is you type in a word
or abbreviation and the results is a simple quick and straight
forward answer. The second reason is along with the answer are
words that are associated with that definition and are linked to
their specific definitions that expounds and describes further
the use of the original word. Not being computer savvy your
dictionary has helped me to understand the comments made by our
network guy and understand what he is talking about. My Thanks
to those involved in creating and maintaining the website, keep
up the good work. Sincerely, (Jack)
So far I have found that this site had all the answers that
I needed without talking or asking anybody what it is that I was
looking for. You see, I think that my Harddrive is bad. Laptop
is slow, Errors on start up, takes really long to start up and
ASRA32 claims Poor hardisk health. Thanks guys(and girls) great
job.
(Joeri)
As long as I typed in the correct words in my Google search,
I came up with the best directions. A few days ago I searched
for Erase Hard Drive and got few things that would help me.
Today I searched for Erase Hard Disk and your page was the first
on the list. I looked at other sites. Yours has the best
answers, the easiest to understand and looks the nicest. Thank
you! I appreciate this information! (Debi)
I felt you people should be congratulated. I use it very
sincerely. Thanks to your team for the effort you have put in
this project. It is really fruitful. Keep updating it.
(D)
An excellent site! It's now bookmarked for easy reference.
I'll no longer have to worry or wonder about stuff on my
computer. Thanks a million! (Lez)
This is a very complete site, congrats. (DFZ)
I love your DOS section. Unfortunately I use it a lot.
Thanks for keeping it where I can still find it.
(mamoroso2)
I teach a computer class at Kerman High School. One of my
lessons is giving tips on buying computers. Your site was just
what I was looking for. Thanks. (Phil)
I have no computer savy-ness. I needed to find out about an
application for windows and "THANK YOU" for having this site it
lives up to its name maybe there is computerhope for me after
all.
(Annie)
I always use this site for DOS help, it's great! Thanks very

I have been searching for the way to handle getting scan
disk or defrag to run without other programs writing to windows,
but nowhere else showed me exactly how to close out all the tsrs
and which ones would need to stay open. Thanks
(Leahmm)
I was Overly impressed. This site had everything I was
looking for... and More!! I'm only 15 and I can almost do
anything now that has anything to do with MS-DOS. I'm surprised
how much was written about something most people don't ever even
worry about. Thanks for keeping up with the site.
(Jacob)
I really like computerhope, I am a hardware technician and
I must say this website has broaden my comprehension on many
hardware issues. gooddose!!! (Jake)

does help people like me who are so zealous to know much about
IT and computers in particular. Keep up the good work. (Itai)

help programs.
(Texblueskyz)
You guys are awesome, cause the information I needed was

answered every problem I came across. Thank you!
(Lisamaire)
Thanks for you help. I was given a pc and had to format
it, and unknown to me the soundcard driver was in a folder, so
no cd to copy the files from. Clicking on you site has helped me
find the drivers. (Dave)
Just checking "dxdiag" command to find out my version. I
had the latest version as it turned but I could not remember the
"Run" command to enter. Thanks.
(David)
Please keep up the good work. I am a reluctant (though not
disgruntled) Win-XP user that used to be a happy MS-DOS devotee.
It is a pleasure to be able to get back some of the control of
my PC that Windows hijacked. Thank you for having the empathy to
create and maintain such a site as this. Please accept my thanks
also for the pledge to use my E-mail address conscientiously.
(Dan)
You just saved me a $70 service call with the simple
explanation and solution. Thank you,
(Charles)
I have been using this site for some time and as always
have never had difficulty in locating information or answers.
You people are doing a great job! Please keep up the great work.

Great location to gain knowledge about issues that are not
covered elsewhere.
(Arnie)
I've been worried about investing in a PCMCIA WIFI for my
old pentium-150 laptop but your PCMCIA help page has made me
happy. thanks (Bryan)
You are the only ones that didn't want any money. It is so
kind of you all to offer such a wonderful place for people to
learn from with little money or not sure what to buy. Thank you
so much.
(Larry)
I like the way your site is design. Really get to the
matter of what I want to know, without reading trough 10 pages.
(Alapelli)
I've just started to go to college to learn computer
programming. so this page is an excellent source of help.
(Tenchi)
Found your site by accident, but am thankful I did. Your
information helped and saved me hours. Thank you for helping the
technically challenged.
(Bob)
Thank you very much for such a greet web site. I have been
using your site for 2 years now (mostly the "Dictionary") I am
self taught and build PC's as a hobby. Your site is so great
when I get in over my head and need an explanation as how or why
something works. I don't usually reply to feedback
questionnaires but you are doing such a good job I had to write
and say THANKS.
(Lee)
This is a nice helpful Service Guide. (Matteo)
Well impressed with the clarity, presentation,
readability, excellent. Sorted me out in seconds.
(Brian)
Bookmarked this page as a priority. Thank you all for your
efforts. Best of computing luck and fortune! yours

Very great site that you guys have. I was referred here by
the site admin when I met him at a con a while back. Thanks so
much.
(Kasper)
Wonderfully simple and straight to the point. Thank you
(DD)
Thank God for Google, which directed me to your site when
I was stuck in MS DOS. Your answer to my question got me back
into Windows 98. Thanks. I can try to go back to sleep now
instead of lying awake worrying.
(Aaron)
I just wanted to tell you that I really like you site. I
work in the IT field and Im always coming across new problems I
have never seen before. I find your site very helpful for
solving these problems. Most web sites I come across are geared
toward the novice that knows nothing about computers. These
sites are useless to me because they only explain what the
problem might be and their suggestions are things any person in
the field already knows. For example, when the computer is
having trouble booting make sure its plugged in. I like that
your site is geared toward the professional in the field and is
logically laid out with advanced suggestions on how to solve the
problem. I hope that your site will be available for many years
to come and not be like most sites that disappear a few months
after you bookmark them.
(Daniel)
You're the best in the milky way. (Siavash)
Many thanks. Your help worked well so long as I remained
calm and patient.
(Paul)
Just wanted to say thank you for making it so extremely
easy. After hours on the phone with Dell, only to find out they
wanted to charge me $100's of dollars for support, I told them
to shove it and found a simple solution on your site. Again,
thank you, thank you very muchh. (Steven)
Thank you for all your assistance. Most people don't know
but really need to known about sites like this. Anyone has a pc
need to know where to find information without calling a tech
rep. that will charge you for every minute that you are on the
line. Thanks again.
(Eram352)
Good job thanks, keep things as it is, one day someone
will honor you.
(Sharif)
Thank you for the simple - easy to follow directions. This
helped me so much. Instead of all the computer mumbo jumbo
language - you spoke in lamens terms I could understand.
(mom in need)
Great range of help. Came here looking for some Microsoft
keyboard shortcuts and ended up answering some html questions as
well. Cheers !!
(Carrie)
I've been trying to find a solution to how to delete a
file used by another person or program for 10 months. I just
discovered your site and within two minutes problem solved.
Thanks a whole bunch of free space.
(Anonymous)
I've been trying for months to disable the "Sleep" button
on my Microsoft Natural keyboard. I don't need it, and my cats
keep stepping on it and putting my computer into standby mode.
Sometimes I can reawaken the computer and get back to my
desktop; more often I can't, and have to restart. I downloaded
and installed the latest version of MS's IntelliType Pro
software; it enabled me to change the action of nearly every one
of the extra keys on the keyboard *except* Sleep. No help there.
I searched MS's site, and its advice was to "filter the
IOCTL_GET_SYS_BUTTON_CAPS device I/O control request IRP sent by
the Power Manager," which involved modifying the i8042prt.sys
file. No instructions were given on how to do this. Less than no
help, and a waste of my time. I was almost ready to take my
keyboard apart and physically remove the Sleep button, or
disable it by any means necessary. Finally, I went to Google and
searched for the keywords "disable sleep button." Lo and behold,
your article CH000735 was the second search result. (The first
result was the idiotic MS "IOCTL_GET_SYS_BUTTON_CAPS" page.)
Your article told me, simply and clearly, how to disable the
Sleep button, and it took me all of 15 seconds to accomplish it.
As usual, the bozos at Microshaft can't do tech support to save
their lives, and others have to do their job for them. You folks
are amazing. Bless you. You're my new heroes! I'll be back, and
I'll be recommending you to others too. Regards, respect, and
thanks,
(Chris)
I anticipated an hour or two of research to find a
solution to the issues I was having, but your site was so well
organized and thoughtfully streamlined, it took me all of five
minutes. Thank you!
(Fin_morrighan)
Just wanted to say thank you for such a great website! So
much in-depth and good information. I came upon your site by
searching "troubleshooting". So far I've been able to figure out
and fix three problems with much success. I thought if the site
is this good, I'd better subscribe to the newsletter as well.
Great job! Thanks again!!
(Cathy)

I have been buying a lot of info. lately trying to leap to
hands-on PC operating, and it is not easy at 72. Haven't spent

things are far beyond my expertise.

Took me forever to find a power supply plug diagram for an
old AT power supply on the Internet. I changed my keywords a
little (google) and your page was the first result, and viola.
Now I know which wire runs the 5v and which wire runs the 12v
(MM Developer)
I saved my customer's computer thanks to your web site.
Originally, it just came up with a black screen, saying, "NTLDR
is missing - Press Ctrl, Alt & Delete to reboot." After
following your instructions to fix this, it then said, "Boot.ini
is corrupted." I then followed your instructions on fixing this.
The machine boots fine now. I also did a CHKDSK /R, but that's
the only other step I did. You saved me hours of doing a full
recovery to get XP back, and possibly risking the customer's
data. Thanks!
(Robin)
Google linked me directly to one of your pages that gave
me exactly the information I needed. Problem solved in ten
seconds. Thank You very much.

I am a schoolteacher in Phila looking for a simple way to
set up a file server in my classroom. I have Windows 2003 Server
installed, but it has been anything but simple. The only thing
preventing me from setting up a Linux server years ago was not
being able to find a list of available commands with their
syntax. I'm looking forward to getting into work on Friday &
getting my server configured. Thanks :o)
(Alan)
Finally a website that easy to use and provides accurate
and complete information.

very computer savvy!! A million thanks!!
(Lana)
IMPRESSED; FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER SEARCHED FOR TECH. INFO.

was present at Molex connectors.
(Dan)
I downloaded and executed a copy of Spybot S&D v1.3 to
search for spyware on my machine and it detected five DSO
Exploit entries in the registry. However, Spybot S&D was unable
to remove the problems so used Google to search for the term
"DSO Exploit". Google found your web page straight away and the
information you have provided is very excellent! I think that
the author of the "DSO Exploit" article is an IT Guru. Thank you
very much.
Nice one! (Anonymous)
It's been so long since I have written a "Bat" file I had
forgotten the commands and structure. Thanks for being there.

There is nothing but good to say about your website, I
have not found a book or individual that has helped me more than
you, I tell people I'm pretty much self taught about what I know
about computers but the truth is your site has helped me in
teaching myself. I tell all my friends about you, I myself am on
a fixed income and do not want to insult you with what I could
donate, but be sure I tell my friends to donate because of the
priceless information and help within this website. Keep up the
good work, and for those of us that now know what we do WE THANK
YOU VERY MUCH........... :)

I had been looking for this info for literally months. I
didn't know the best way to describe the problem. Once I found
your site and extrapolated a bit, it wasn't bad at all. One of
those situations where you just know the answer is out there,
but finding it by keyword wasn't working well. MANY THANKS
(Dewey)
Until I found your site, I could find nothing that would
help answer my question. I was looking for the name of the ~
mark and unless I knew what the name was, I couldn't find any
info. I appreciate the list that one can look over to find
something they can not put in a search box. Thanks
(Nanci)
I really enjoyed exploring your site. It was very simple

starting to sweat. I am aplus certified nad looked to my

all of the useful information on your site and choose the option
that I thought fit best. It worked first try! Thank you so much!

I'm once again teaching a class of High School Freshman
Computer Skills and I needed to update my history unit. I was
surprised at the number of computer related advancements in the
1990's and now up to 2005! Most take all of this technology for
granted and/or as an obligation of the companies to keep us
moving faster etc! Your site was wonderful, please excuse my
soapbox!

My son was helping me with a computer-related problem on
another computer, and he had downloaded a file to a floppy to
load on the other computer. He later reinserted the floppy into
this machine and forgot to remove the floppy. Once I got to your
tip to check for disks, the rest was history. Thank you very
much. (Bob)
I was amazed to find the info on a very OLD Conner drive.
Thanks bunches.
(Jeany)
Thank you so much for this site. I recently killed our old
Windows 98 machine and used this site to copy files I needed off
the hard drive, as well as to help me see if I could resuscitate
our computer. This site has been a big help!!!
(Rachel)
Keep it coming, Your my brain food. (Bigokie)
Wow! Very helpful on a problem that I have been struggling
with and I am a fairly experienced user.

I hope any other answer, can be found with same ease,
Thanks.

I found you by chance from Google your answers are
accurate. Thank you very much for the free service.
(Heather)
Excellent site! You've done a great job pulling together
information on the various different MicroSoft OS systems.
Thanks!
(Derek)
Thanks a Million!! I looked at some other peoples
instructions, and it did not work, but your instructions were
easy to follow and I am once again a happy computer user!
Cheers!
(Desilita)
Thank you for the information on net send I'm so gonna
annoy my computer teachers during class! (Jamakin)
Thank you Thank you Thank you. This is the second time
that I have used your site to correct my computer problems.
Because you have so many excellent tips and techniques I was
able to correct my problems and I am up and running again. The
first problem that I incurred was due to a "User.exe"
corruption. The second was due to a display adapter problem.
Because of your site (after a few days of trying to wing it on
my own) I corrected both problems quickly and efficiently. Great
job who ever created this site. I am telling all of my friends
about you. Keep up the great work.
(Carl)
Your site is an excellent source of lucid information for
the newbie and the experienced. Thanks
(Lila1)
Had bookmarked this page a long time ago, as it looked
interesting and helpful, but never needed to use it. Computer
running slow, was given very informative and concise answer to
my problem. Thanks so much.
(Andrea)
The laptop, that I was having problems with, was left on
the shelf for over 12 months as I had simply given up on it. I
had some spare time and found this site through the Google
search engine. Tried the advice and met with complete success.
Thank you!!!
(Stray)
Most sites were to complex and so did not give me what I
wanted or too simplistic and could handle a my query. I simply
wanted a definition on Crossed linked Files. Computer Hope had
it right there and gave me a quick facts on it.
(Pete)
LIFE SAVERS! I thought my computer was dead for sure and I
wouldn't get it fixed till the next working day. Thank God for
the Internet and awesome websites like yours.
(Jeanette)
Did a Google search on finding Area Codes and it brought
me to your site. Your site listed the area code and the
location. That was easy. You hit the top of the Google.com
search list and it was worth it.
(Greg)
All I can say is thank "God" for your website. I have
three hard drives that are unbootable due to an error with
User.exe. Due to this error which leads to a Kernel fault I was
unable to load my CD driver. I have now fixed that problem
thanks to you. Hopefully your excellent WEB site can now help me
run a fix program for my User.exe problem. Without being able to
use my CD I was a fish out of water, but you saved the day.
Thank You
(Carl)
I am 82 years old and not very computer use informed. Your

easy to follow advice as to how to fix pc problems. I have had a
nightmare finding help with Windows 98 because it's so old,
however you were able to help. Thank you ever so much.
(Kirsty)
Your site is easy to understand. First time making a web
page, think its pretty good. Wanted to know the fastest and
safest way to promote it. My partner and I are starting a legal
resource company in a small town and wanting to get it out
there. Thank you for your advice.

It's a good site for the people who want to learn
something about infrared or gprs settings.

answer my questions about HTML-code in a simple way (I checked
out several other pages as well) (Evil)
I was trying to figure out how to use the Linux command
"tar". I read the Man page but it was pure confusion. Computer

Our computer tech has abandoned us and this has been great!!!
(Jill)
Your information was so simple and I was so excited when I
got the computer working. I'm a novice at this. I had an old
computer I wanted to fix up for my daughter and after installing
a motherboard I had a problem getting it going but you certainly
helped. Thank you so much!
(Loretta)
I have used Smart Computing's technical support site many
times and think they do a great job. You guys have them beat, at
least for what I was looking for, video card installation
information. Thank You!!!!
(Sandy)
I typed system.ini into the yahoo search bar not really
expecting to find it or the answer to the message I've been
getting - I was both surprised and overwhelmed when over 7
million references came up - since I didn't know what the file
was or what minSPs were, I crossed my fingers and hoped that
your site could enlighten me - I still didn't expect to find a
remedy even if you were able to define the problem - thank you,
thank you, thank you for not only explaining what the problem
was but how to fix it - and for free ..... a definite bonus - I
use my puter primarily for recreational purposes and repair
bills are not in the budget - I'd have to go back to watching
Cartoon Network with my boys - lol - I'm going to tell everyone
about your site - thank you so much once again - you made my
day.
(Nemosnfm)
Thanks for having this information available on the web, I

Wow this is such a great website, I really enjoyed it. I
learned a lot from your website, there were things I already
knew, and those things became clearer, and I even learned a few
new things, what malware stood for clear difference between
adaware and spyware, that spyware is actually almost the same as
a trojan virus, well the same potential. I stumbled across this
website looking for straight facts about the difference between
cable and DSL, and found them, great job, keep up the great work
here at Computer Hope.
(William)
I tried every way I knew of (in windows XP and Microsoft
web site) to find out what a "codec" is. I had seen it in a
"windows update" and wasn't going to download it without knowing
what it was. Now I have my answer. THANK YOU
(Dorretta)
You guys are AWESOME. I added you to my favorites list and
I'm sure I'll be visiting this site many more time. You people
are like the only site with accurate, detailed, easy-to-find
information. Hood job and thanks for helping.
(Darkstar)
I went to several websites for assistance with a startup
error that would not allow me to access my computer. After being
directed to your website my problem was solved within 60 seconds
(literally!). Thank you for a GREAT website. AMAZING!!!
(Maxine)
This is one of the best sites that I have found on the web
to help me with information that I needed for school and
personal use. Keep up the good work. Be Blessed.
(Bessie)
Thanks. I have tried to find simple definitions for
acronyms and the like, and have found it very difficult with
other sites, but not yours. Thanks.
(OmnipotentBunny)
Thank you for your help, and free! Ha! Again, Thank you
very much for being here for me just another computer geek
getting old and blind from years of loving this passion.
(Debi)
I had a old copy of Riven and NO documentation. This

(Phillida)
Solution provided worked like a charm and saved time of
having to reloaded XP and numerous applications.

AOL was unable to help me with a problem connecting to
their service! I found computerhope was easily able to solve the
problem. Thank you. P.S. I never tried to fix a problem before
this.
(Susan)
I found what I needed instantly. Unlike when I tried to
get the information that I needed from the Windows XP help
files. Well done!
(Anonymous)
Everything in this page is awesome! There are a lot of
commands that I have no idea, but now I know where to find them!
(Ernesto)
I have an old PC which I am trying to get working for a
friend. I wondered if it was powerful enough to load Windows
98SE. I have tried the Microsoft website, Ask Jeeves and loads
of other sites. This is the only site that gave me the answer
which is YES. Thanks very much.
(Phil)
Your collection is awesome, bar-none. I attempted to
create a self-help website, simple solutions for obvious
questions I had no time to answer. I was blown away by the
extensive collection at computerhope. I really appreciate your
website as it promotes one of my most favorite quotes,
unfortunately the quote is most noted as permission to take more
than ones share of cookies and treats in the break room, "help
yourself".
(JMK)
But seriously, I sure wish (that) I'd discovered you 10
years ago-or, 7, or 4, or 1,... Yours is the clearest, most
relevant and most understandable basic computer literacy site
that I've ever seen. THANK YOU.
(Nic)
I'd tried many web sites including the Phoenix Bios
Technology website. PBT website suggested I get that info from
my computer's manufacturer. I wrote my HPSupport and ask them
about it. I don't think they knew anything about this. Today I
did a GOOGLE search for the Phoenix and tried a few more
websites before finding yours. Thank you for making this info
free.
(Lucille)
A very timely enterprise considering the accelerated rate
of intro to obsolescence. Just because the manufacture is caught
up in the never ending spiral of introducing newer and faster
and bigger does not render last seasons offerings useless. Keep
up the building of your data base, expand the listings, enhance
the information. What you have done has been needed for a long
time. Thank you
(cssiii)
Its really a very very good site I was like searching this
kind of site as m fresher in Software engineering field this
site could help me a lot. Thank you very much to make this kind
of site for the freshers like me:)
(Lickey)
I spend 2 days working on a computer and nobody wanted to
help me with out charging me lots of money, I decided to read on
the Internet, and ended up spending lots of time on information
that did not help me at all. when I found your page, it was a
blessing, I cud not believe that all my answers wore in one
page. VERY QUICK AND VERY EASY THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
(Jorge)
A very very informative site ! An Excellent resource for
the novice and experienced user(s) alike ! This site provides a
comprehensive review of the basics, in addition to a wonderful
addendum of tips and tricks for experienced Windows users ! In
my opinion, Computer Hope's site beats the competitor sites
overall... BAR NONE ! ComputerHope.com is one of the very few
sites that provides very useful information on Windows 95 that
is easy to understand and logical, even for the beginning user !
Thank you for your help and keep up the great work!
(Jim)
Just wanted to thank you for this free site. It is one of
the very best computer information sites on the web. Thank you
again. It is nice to know we have somewhere to go that explains
things easy to understand. And we don't have to call somewhere
where we DON'T understand the customer rep. Thanks again.
(Debbie)
I had no clue such a site existed... im still a "novice"
as far as knowledge of computers and how they operate/work... I have only used them as tools to make my life/work easier... but
was stalled as far as knowing what to do if major problems
popped up... at least until the computer shop opened...and I had
the time to give up my computer :) (Anonymous)
Thanks, I am using this as a fun fact sheet to teach
co-workers at work.
(Jholttn)
Thank you for bridging the gap between a technotard and
his technology :)
(Dave)
You are the best person in the world! Don't lose
hope...everything will be alright if you just hold on one more
day. Then I will arrive, and we can live happy and free. I love
you.
(Michael)
Thanks for the articles - I've been struggling for ages
trying to boot from a disk set up from recovery CDs, but hadn't
realized the problem was that it had been set up as a secondary
partition. The articles made correcting this simple, and I'm
very grateful for the help.
(John)
I'm a Mac. guy ;-), but I repair PCs, This is the first
place I go when I have problems, and almost always find what I
need!! Thank You, you make my life a lot easier!!

sites that were telling me nothing. Yours had what I needed
simple and right to the point. Thank you very much!
(Exousia)
I asked about symbols/dr Watson, and its just what I
looked for; no runaround, no trolling through screens of
whatever (which is usually way too tech).
(Sam)
Almost all the Windows-ftp help sites forget a very
critical command (open address) in their help literature. Not
here. It prominently shown at the top with other commands
following. Great job. I like accuracy.
(MG)
Your instructions got right to the point.. i.e., what file
do I need to locate to backup my mail and how to find it.
Thanks much!
(Leslie)
Wonderful!! Clearly laid out and simple enough for me to
follow, I cannot thank you guys enough! Keep up the great and
I'm sure rewarding work. Kind regards,
(Matthew)
THANK YOU! I had given up all hope of being able to use my
existing setup and was looking at a $350.00 minimum expenditure
to correct the problem. Your help gave me the clue I needed to
resolve the problem. This site is a bookmark and a KEEPER!
Thanks again!
(Bob)
All I wanted was to see transfer rates for USB 1.1 and
2.0. Simple information but ridiculously hard to find. Until
your site. Thanks
(Larry)
I am so glad that there is a place where I can get answers
to my questions without having to pay someone in India to put me
on hold.

out what that meant in about 1 minute. Thanks!

Some information is old, still useful however, has evolved
or changed and may not apply but might be understood to... I'm
creating basic computer knowledge articles, (a whats this whats
it do, and how does it fit in approach), for friends and
relatives...Computerhope.com has been fairly good, so far with
the information, help, and explanations. Because of this I have
bookmarked it to replace a couple other sites that fell short.
Kudos to all who put this stuff together.
(bcr)
this is a really good website, I found all of the
information available for me to find, most of the other websites
information are reclusive, thanx I've enjoyed the experience.
(Mathew)
Thanks for providing the MS-DOS info -- you probably just
saved me 2+ hours of work!
(Tom)
Your site is perfect! Lots of information, easy navigation

(Yurii)
This site has been a life-saver for my Networking class.
I've had to play catch up and have found the information I need,

I have used your site with a growing admiration as the
information has helped me to compose lectures for classes on
basic computer and network understanding which I teach at my
local college thanks.

It only took a minute to find what I wanted. thanks.
(James)
I just wanted to say that your website is the most
organized, logical and well planned I have seen compared with
any other similar websites. It would be great if there were more
downloads under each category. I would like to support your
website if possible, one way I can do this is to have link to
your webpage with all my outgoing email. Will you allow me to
add your URL to the bottom of my emails? Thanks for a great
service.
(Zeki)
Very helpful site with lots of information. I would
recommend this useful site to everybody. Very nice

quest for knowledge and methods is finally on the fast track.
Thank You!

other seniors and shutins how to use their computers and correct
problems. mucho thanks.
(Ml)
I would like to thank all staff that work for the
wonderful site. You were extremely helpful in not only resolving
my problem, but learning more about working with computers.
(Bill)
Finally, a web site that offers instant answers to any and
all types of Computer problems. Most sites that I have gone to
doesn't give simple and direct help like your site has to offer.
Usually I would have to go from link to link to link which can
be not only time consuming but very frustrating. My hats off to
you. This web site is definitely #1 on my list!! Thank You.
(Barbara)
I just needed a dos syntax, and it was right here.... you

page. *Bookmark*
(Chris)
Very very helpful! Thank god your website exists! DOS is
no longer a common tool and everyone seems to have given up on
it. Thank you again...
(Jones)
Could not ask for better. Technet in Microsoft could take
lessons from you.
(Dennis)
Though I am not an idiot, I believe the average idiot
could find his way around here just as easy.. That's my messed
up way of saying Kudos! Excellent site, I am glad I Googled it,

friendly and informative site I have come across in the last 12
months. Thanks for your great work.
(GuyA)
CH has made kept me going. I didn't know anything. I mean
0 about computers. I've been learning much keeping this antique

great, THANKS. This computer would be trash without you.
(Btrevet)
I've been the low-level computer guru in my family for
years (fortunately, I have a real guru to turn to when I get
stuck) and I've recently been thrown head first into the world
of wireless networking. After finally getting everything set up
and secured, I was given the task of figuring out how to use the
Messenger Service in Windows XP. I looked at Microsoft's
website, I looked in Windows Help, I looked everywhere.. Finally
Jeeves gave me a link to your site, which gave me the key pieces
I needed to figure it out, and on the very first page I looked
at! I've been browsing your other areas, and I'm really
impressed. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
(Alexia)
I have been concerned about WIN386.SWP-computer is slow -
that thing kept growing! Got exactly the answer I needed. Thank
you soo much.

I have used this site before and should have gone to it
first. Other sites gave me a dozen options. Your site was right
on target. This is an excellent site for people with all levels
of computer knowledge. Thank you for your help.
(Anonymous)
Great Website! Was finally able to diagnose my computer
problem. You saved my Gateway Solo 5300 Laptop from meeting it's
fate by being thrown out of my dorm window or being whacked by a
2x4! Thank you so much!
(Jill)
A great site. Got here quite by accident but then again
maybe it was 'divine providence' that guided me here. What ever
it was I am very grateful for.
(Ancient1)
I looked up the code info in google and you were the first
link up. Very quick and to the point :) I'll have a few less
grays now. Thanx

Thank you very much. It seems whenever I take my computer
to some one to fix it they just erase and start over. I was able
to do this my self. You saved me money and time.
(Rob)
There should be a law against you!! YOU ARE ADDICTIVE!!
But don't stop!!! Excellent site. Wanted to know what "modio"

solved - Went on to waste an hour looking at all sorts Wish I'd
found you years ago! Have put your address in Links. Thank you!
(Chas)
Great! I needed some help for a DOS function so I could
create a backup batch file, and found exactly what I was
looking for, thank you very much! :-D
(Tom)
Ran some dumb prog off a p2p network - got suspicious when
it asked for a reboot... Got "NTLDR not found" or similar. Fired
up Google on my son's pc, typed in NTLDR and bewm - up came a
Computerhope reference. 30 mins of searching for my XP CD, 20
mins of guessing forgotten Admin password (and rebooting several
times), and I was able to recover the deleted NTLDR,
NTDETECT.EXE and BOOT.INI files. Thanks very much!
(Anonymous)
This is the best site that I have ever been to in my
entire life. I search the web every day for 10 hours a day and
never have I found a site with such brilliance. I love this site
and I was wondering if I could buy a t-shirt which says I love
www.computerhope.com. YESS!!.. it turns me on.
(Mathew)
I use this site often for computer information. I find it
extremely helpful. Very detailed, usually answers all my
question and then some. In fact I usually end up clicking on so
many links once I get started, I end up miles ahead of myself
with answers to question I don't even have yet. Keep up the
GREAT work,
(Denise)
Entry level CMPTR student, your site has been a tremendous
help, more than mere words can explain!
Thanks! (Lisa)
Many thanks for having a site where you can obtain
information about computer related problems. When you think that
the Internet is full of information it is good to know that
there is somewhere that you can get information to enable you to
get on the Internet in the first place should your PC require
maintenance. Thanks again.

One of the best computer related web sites that I have
ever come across. Easy to navigate, very well laid out, clear
and uncluttered. Full of extremely useful information.
(Raymond)
This is the only place (in 2 days of searching) that I was
finally able to find the right info to fix an "NTLDR missing
file" error. Thanks Tons !!!!
(Anonymous)
Thank you for providing this service. Sometimes the
terminology for tech language is mysterious and overwhelming.
It's relieving to know there's help out there!
(Terri)
This is probably the most informative and concise web site
I have ever seen compiled on key computer issues and the
hardware/software boot process. The information you have
provided here is very useful for someone trying to configure and
maintain their own system without having to be a computer
software/hardware career oriented technician. Great job*****
(John)
I've been to your site before & have always gone away
satisfied! No mysterious codes & nonextant definitions in the
index files.
(Cecilia)
Finally discovered Computerhope.com Wish I'd known about
Your Computer Dictionary long ago. It is a Godsend to a
non-technical computer user. No other help sources I've tried
before compares to your, detailed, layman language definitions
and expanded information on important terms. Any way I can help
keep this great website in business? Just ask.
(Winfield)
Wonderful web site. Very useful. Would Recommend it at any
one trying to learn Linux and Unix like me. (Sameera)
You guys cost me 50 bucks, but it is well worth it.... I
purchased the Norton utilities partition magic..... only problem
is now I have to set down and familiarize myself with its
capabilities....no problem, I'm retired, and I am happy to have
folks like you around.
(Harold)
All I can say is that this is an A1 website, I'm doing an
open university course and this site is invaluable as it will be
in the future for most computing queries. Thanks very much
(Stan)
This site is really helpful and it took me little time to
find what I was looking for even though I'm not a techie. It was
a was a very satisfactory experience. Thank You all at
www.computerhope.com.
(William)
I made a gross mistake of not seeking your page before I
wasted money. Next time I shall look before I leap !!! I have
run off a hardcopy of all your pages and retained in my records.
(Maj. WG)
I just want to thank you for providing such a great
website. A person can actually look for answers to their
questions and find them. And you don't cater to hackers. Thank
you. Keep up the fantastic work. (Seymour)
You saved me countless hours, I thought my problem was
obscure "NTDLR" ?? Wow, I did what you said and it worked. Bam!
I'm so excited, I spent 4 hours on that stupid thing. I will be
asking you guys a lot of stuff from now on, and I bookmarked
your page. I feel like I should pay for this service. I am so
pleased. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
(Ernie)
I am a new computer user at 59 and it helps when the
answer are right there. Thank you.
(Jennt)
This site was very great. I wish I always had a time to go
in this page to help me learn more because I was very busy on my
time schedule. but this great is very awesome for me because all
my interested topics and other information are shown here.
thanks a lot! I hope that there would be many other people that
will appreciate your site.
(Coy)
Greetings....AOL should place an Icon for your company, on
the top of its' taskbar. Damn, you're great for problems.
(Jesus)
Thanks I had a simple question. How to move the taskbar
back to the original location. I called Time Warner RoadRunner
to get the support guy to help. He didn't know how to do it so
why would he be able to tell me anything else about a computer.
I looked on this website and found the simple answer. Thanks
again.
(Mike)
A great tool! After spending many years "away" from bat
file processing, I had lots of cobwebs to clear out. This has
helped a lot! Many Thanks!
(Michael)
Great site for beginners and advanced users. Every
question you could ask is at one, easy to use site. Thanks very
much!
(Brad)
Illegal DVD-ripping software is flourishing, despite
well-publicized wins by DVD piracy foes and laws against copying
Hollywood movies.
(L)
I am so very happy I have found this site. My first time
here was excellent also; and it just gets better. THANK YOU
(Steven)
I got this new virus scanning and protection thing and I was wandering what or who started viruses and now I know thanx
to your site thanx so much I couldn't find that info anywhere
else...( kina strange hey...?) well thanx! (Brenden)
Thanks... I've been searching for information on how to
disable programs from running in the background (TSRs)
everywhere on the net but only wasting time. Once I found your
site, my lousy search definition was directed to exactly what I
was after, and in great detail!!! Seven pages of everything you
need to know on the subject in fact. I couldn't be more pleased.
Keep up the good work!!!
(Arnold)
I never found any web site that is details like given in
this website. It is excellent I cannot express my words how easy
it is. Thank you the team that create this web site.
(Debdulal)
I have been searching the Internet for shortcut keys
because I just started a data entry job and I was looking for
ways to increase my production . I think that the information I
found at your site is more than what I was looking for. Thanks
(Lyn)
I found exactly what I needed almost immediately. I was
searching for some translations of DOS commands to Unix. As a
complete novice to Unix I was amazed how easy this was. Thanks!
(Ken)
Thank you so much for your helpful website! I thought I
had lost all hope when I forgot my bios password for my Windows
98 system. After two days of searching for help I found your
site. I am so grateful for the instructions and graphics. I'm
happy to say my problem is fixed now. I am a teacher and I will
recommend your site to everyone I know!
(Patti)
I enjoyed the information that your site offered. Thank
you for teaching a rookie or ignoramus on the meaning of RAID.
My newly bought PC has no RAID, that prompted me to ask what it
is. Many thanks.
(Tom)
I have tried a lot of suggestions from a lot of people,
but your advice has been the only one that has actually worked.
Thanks again.
(Paul)
I Love This Site...I've Recommended to All My Friends and
Family...Thanks Computer Hope
(Angel)
This is my first time using this site...and have found it
to be very resourceful. Will use again Thanks for taking the
time to put up a site that doesn't cost money. Continue doing
what your doing. (Norm)
The BEST experience with computer help I have ever used
!!!!
(Millforklady)
I was pleased about the fact that your search results are
so strait forward. Websites with these type of services are
often hard to find. I would certainly recommend this site to
anyone with common computer problems. Thank You.
(Edgar)
Suggested to me by relatives---very glad to know how to
seek help that is desired I am still a novice and have 2 sisters
that can do almost anything almost---much more computer savvy
than I am-----thank you.
(Joan)
I've been working for days trying to figure out why I lost
sound. I reinstalled the sound card and everything. Went into
Google typed in "lost sound" and found your site and the first
thing it said "bad something" was it. The check mark was grayed
as soon as I did what you said (keep choosing) it did it!! Thank
you! I put you in my favorites!
(Linda)
As always I was able to find the answer to my problems and
they were easily understood. Great job!!!
(Patty)
Best definition of MAC address that I've found.
(Anonymous)
I have used your beep code info. before. Each time has led
to a successful completion of my work. I really appreciate the
free access to this info. If it wasn't free I wouldn't be here.
(Padre)
I have put this site in my favorites and have recommended
to several people. I love this site and always get answers to my
questions. Thank you for maintaining it for us. (Delleen)
Thank you for your website. It is the best one of all the
Computer jargon Dictionaries sites I've visited so far (and I've
visited plenty). In fact, the only one I was able to find the
answers to ALL of my questions. Thanks again and good luck to
you all!
(Inna)
Thank you for all the effort, you folks are doing good job
I hope you will maintain the same level, someone may honor you
some day for the good job which is far better than others,
success folks.
(Sharifow)
I am new to all this. I stumbled upon your site
accidentally while looking for answers for something that I can
not remember now. I keep coming back here for help, and I can
not say enough about you guys. I am usually able to get some
sort of understanding of what to do after a visit here. I thank
you many times. (Pne)
Your site is INCREDIBLE. I spent less than 2 minutes
looking up information and fixing the problem. I didn't know
quite how to word my problem and yet your search engine took me
to exactly what I was looking for. The directions were simple
yet complete, and I was able to take care of a problem I thought
I would spend hours trying to solve. I normally don't waste my
time writing this kind of stuff, but I was really that impressed
with your site. (Kyle)
Wow! This site gave me the EXACT info I was looking for
and SAVED me from having to re-install everything on my
computer. It was a simple problem with a simple solution that
even the techies on the phone didn't think of. THANK YOU!!!!!!!
(Jessie)
Thank you, thank you, thank you! AOL really messed up my
computer, and I wasn't able to run DOS concurrently with Windows
until I found the answer in your website!!! I've been going
absolutely crazy trying to figure the damn thing out, and the
solution is so simple!! And your site is much easier to navigate
than Microsoft's!! Now I'm going to see what other tips you
have. Thanks again!
(Laura)
This is the best site on the entire Internet. Thank you so
much for all of the help that you have supplied. I am having a
problem with bad sectors in my hard drive. After reading up on
it in the dictionary I now know that it is going bad. Thanks
(Vee)
Thank you, a local store told me I had to purchase a new
scanner because I did not have the necessary driver. My scanner
is only 2 years old. Again thank you, you just saved me around
$89.00.
(Debbie)
I would like to give all there credit for developing such
a great tool for users! I often point out you site for users
whom need help! Love it guys! Keep it alive! If you ever need
assistance please contact me.
(Joel)
Just wanted to let you all know that I really like your
site. And I love the name - Computer Hope. Reminds me of the
ship (70s and 80s, I think) called Hope. It was a hospital ship
and sailed around the world giving hope to people. The theme was
"Where there's Hope, there's Hope." Pretty neat, huh! I miss
reading about it. Have not heard anything about it in years.
That is something I will have to check out on the Web.
(Anna)
I was thinking about buying a book on computer problems,
but now since I found this Web site, I don't think I need it.
Thank you very much!
(Michael)
I'm not the sort of person that generally feels compelled
to e-mail websites but...... I'm currently undertaking a
computer course: 'Technical Support for ICT Systems' and have
found your site absolutely invaluable in helping me understand
some of the course material.... If the site came in book form
I'm sure it would be a best seller. Thank you
(Henry)
Greetings from Moscow! ;-) I owe a box of beer to you
guys..:-) Thanks a lot for your help and such helpful website.
(Ejen)
Your site was very helpful. In fact even the computer tech
support could not find the problem. They told me I needed a new
monitor when in fact as your site pointed out I had a defective
monitor cable. Well you guys save me a bunch of money so thank
you very much.
(Larry)
Thank you for such a helpful site. I've spent ages on the
web trying to find somewhere to tell me exactly what a PCMCIA
slot looks like and where on my laptop it might be. Within two
minutes of finding your site I'd found them and knew everything
I needed to know.
(Lady)
I would just like to say that this is the most useful and
helpful site I have ever seen. The definitions alone have
increased my knowledge 10-fold. I just happened upon it while
looking for something else. because of the knowledge base, I
have made your site my home page, that is HUGE !! A big
compliment. I have also sent others to your site and they too
have found the site most useful. I can't believe I have gone
this long without finding the site before. If you should happen
to fold (gosh, I sure hope not) Please let me know so that I can
d/l your entire database.
(Glen)
This is a great site to obtain various information for
just about everything about computers. Such a dedicated site
like this one deserves a great deal of recognition.
(M0ua)
I am currently in collage. last semester I was introduced
to batch files. I didn't learn squat about batch files. until I
found your site now I understand batch files, everything from
how to create and edit to showing other people how to make batch
files. If it wasn't for this site I would have giving up on
batch files. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! Thanks again
(Mike)
I think your site is one of the best! When I have to think
too hard back to the DOS commands, sometimes I go too far back
or not far enough. I have too much packed in upstairs from
working on so many different platforms (Unix-several flavors,
Windows-All flavors, Novell-3.x to 5.x, etc). Your site is the
perfect reference for me to get versions and commands straight.
99% of the time I find the command/operational information
there. Congratulations on the tremendous job!
(Roy)
Thank you for your help with Pop Up Ads. Following your suggestions and links to companies that deal with this intrusion, I have been quiet happy with Panic Ware's Professional Edition. The company's product was the best suited for my business and personal needs. Please, keep up the good work. I appreciate the effort that goes into producing a weekly newsletter of this quality and caliber. Again, thank you.
(Calvin)
I'm hungry for learning and you got the food. (Daniel)
I really enjoyed learning a lot of things that I have never known before from your web site. Well, I am studying maintenance class and I found this site to be very very
helpful. What I learned in the class, I came and visit computerhope. I can't tell you how helpful it is to me. Even I have learned a lot of things that I didn't know before. I am still enjoying it very much. I am also giving this site to all my friends to get the best out of it. Thank you once again. Sincerely,
(tsegereda)
Your site was extremely helpful. your material is well organized and well categorized. I found what I needed within seconds... It was a pleasure to navigate within your
site. I came to your site very frustrated of a problem I was facing but finding the solution to my problem quickly speaks volume...I have
book marked your site and I assure you I will be visiting it again...
(Chris)
I fruitlessly searched the web for almost an hour trying to find
articles/definitions to help my 13 year old Nephew prepare for his computer
exam. I then discovered your site and simply found everything I needed..... and more.
(Matt)
You guys have done a fantastic job producing a downright excellent site! The content is incredibly precise. Will bookmark & definitely recommend to others. Thank You.
(Lucien)
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I haven't worked on a Unix system in several years and couldn't remember some of the commands. You saved my butt!!
(Michelle)
I am greatly satisfied with your site. I wish, I had known it
earlier. I am 70 plus, cannot sit long at a time. One can spend whole day in browsing this site. Wish you
good luck in all your efforts. Regards (S.B.)
As a system engineer I think this is the number 1 trouble-shoot site... Keep it up.
(Rikke)
After going straight to my notebook manufacturer's web site and spending who knows how many hours just to fail. Then by chance your site appeared and all that was lost was found. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
(Badbob)
This instance is characteristic of your web site. There are few help organizations at the top of the Internet list. As far as I'm concerned, you folks are always among the top 5. Thanks all of you. "Points."
(dc)
OMG.. I have recently decided to find a free legit way to enhance my knowledge on Excel and found that you guys go through it step by step. And the program is
Book marked to review the program on a routine basis until I feel confident about the knowledge I have encountered for free. Thanks, you guys.
(Jennifer)
This site is great I read 1 paragraph tried it for my comp and fixed the problem ..
I have been trying so many different things to fix my comp and I
was about to spend 600 dollars at a place for them to try to fix it
thank you so much this site was great I just read 1 paragraph and it was quick , free , and very
helpful. once again thank you. (Johnathan)
Okay, you people are absolutely amazing! You provided solutions to 3 problems I've had with my PC for 5+ years in less than 10 minutes. CD Plays! Outlook emails! and PC is much faster, You're on my favorites list (2 secs after speaker started working) I give email to NO company, but couldn't get down fast enough for you people. Trust me, by this time tomorrow, at least 100 people who didn't know you before, will now! PS My dopey husband has been a systems
analyst for 23 years, is the MIS director for a large company, and even has a degree in C.S., but couldn't (wouldn't) fix these things. By now. And if you ever need a spokes person, I'm your man.
(Lisa)
I recently started a network administration course after being laid-off for two years. This is a new field for me and any information is of great help. Your site has already clarified some unknown terms for me. Thank You!
(Bill)
I had been searching for a video driver for about an hour.. found the
answer here is about 3 min. (Dennis)
I stumbled onto this site about a year ago and its the coolest site I ever found. I visit it at least once a month, usually a couple times a week if I want to learn anything about computing. In fact, everything I learned about maintenance, DOS, file
extensions, etc., well lets just say this site taught me about 90% of what I know about computing.
(Harry)
We recommend this site to all our ezine readers and hosting clients as the first place to look for answers.
(Diana)
After a few hours of frustration and useless 'hints' from other sites, I found you!
(Anonymous)
I built a new AMD system and installed the old drive from my windows 95 Pentium 133 system to preserve the files. Immediately I was halted due to "while initializing device IOS....". Anyway, I tried several other 'fixes' to NO avail. Your clear website pointed me almost immediately to the culprit--> Windows 95 and my 1.3 GHz Athlon processor. NONE of the other sites even mentioned something this easy, trust me! Anyway, THANK YOU!!
(Ray)
I was *really* hung up in solving a problem, after having to re-install Win98. Found my answer, FAST. After wasting a *bunch* of time searching and searching, books on Win98 in Austin libraries. Thanks.
(Loren)
Your great hang in their you my life saver with out u I wouldn't
have been able to fix a customers computer and I would have lost business thanks so much
(Joshua)
THANK GOD! Finally a site that is in plain English and is easy to navigate! I have been trying to locate this info on my video driver for DAYS and this is the only site that has had the correct information!!!
(Kschimpff)
I can't thank this website enough for how helpful it was! I'm a writer and have been working on a story for the past 5 months. It finally came time to reformat my computer so I saved my story to a 3.5 floppy. Unfortunately I would spend the next month and a half trying to figure out why I couldn't open up my story again. That's when I turned to the Internet for help and BOY DID I FIND IT!!! Your website took me exactly where I needed to go the minute I came upon it, and it showed me how to get back my story! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!
(Ryan)
I wanted to drop you an email say how your site has helped me for doing
web pages. This is a good resource because it is so simple and doesn't require having to go through 500 pages in a book. I have not even dented going through all your stuff but so far I am impressed. Keep up the good work.
(Joe)
Hello there... I don't have a complaint about your web site, however I would like to tell you that I think it is
absolutely great. I was able to find everything that I needed, and was very impressed with the amount and presentation with the all of the information provided. Thanks very much and keep up the good work. :-)
(David)
Thanks for providing such brilliant help! I've passed your website details onto my friends and colleagues who, I'm sure, will benefit from your problem solving. As I said before, Brilliant.. or, in Australian, "Bloody brilliant!" Regards
(Chris)
1 - Learned from here how to use a boot disk and obtained 1 from a site linked to yours
(Bootdisk.com) They were also very helpful. 2 - Obtained information on modems and drivers for them when I had disconnect problems some time ago. 3 - Stop here often to visit 4 -
Receive newsletter. Best computer information and links for anyone willing to learn. Please keep up the good work and the site.
(Joe)
Great site. Thanks for the much needed help. I wish the manufacturer's own site was as helpful.
(Wayne)
Just what I needed. By the way, your site was recommended by Tech Support at Western Digital. Thanks!
(Al)
I just wanted to express my gratitude to you for your fine website! I was able to find clear, precise, and helpful information to my computer problem at Computer Hope. I'm not a very technical person, and many sites contain explanations for computer issues written in computerese, which is wildly frustrating. Thank you so very much for offering your wonderful explanations in plain
English for those of us who are less adept with computer things. I nearly cried when I found your site and was actually able to fix my problem! Thank you so much,
(Denise)
I should really give you a real big hug and wet slobby kiss :-)
The Simplicity, both Structural and lingual made my life a whole lot easier. surprisingly with all the sites out there floating aimlessly- lost in the ever so wide net, giving out answers which are either
over technical and smeared into infinity or short and extremely NOT to
the point your site was a lifesaver. What have you helped me with?
let's start with Basic explanations of what IS Unix, what are BUS's and where do they go, and how do CD-R and RW differ. really "easy" questions that no one bothers to address nowadays.
Anyhows, combining so many layman terms under one roof to my opinion works marvelously. so, thanks a-plenty and keep up the good work.
(Martin)
Love your site. It has helped me with several computer related problems in the past. Most recently BIOS beep codes. I fixed due to your advice. Saved me money by not having to take computer into the shop. The problems was easily resolved and took minutes to
diagnose and repair. Thanks again (Neven)
I wish I found this site before. I aced my DOS test yesterday as I was allowed to use one online source...this site, tomorrow I have my
Unix. I am so happy I found this site...It is brilliant. So easy to understand. Gotta run, its 2.30 am and I have to study. Thanks for your hard work putting this site together
(Sandy)
Am refurbishing an older computer to give as a Christmas gift. Was having trouble getting the new CD-ROM to read audio CD's. Your instructions helped me solve the problem quickly. Thanks very much for the great information.
(Martin)
I honestly don't know how you are funded for running this great site. But one thing I
world like to say: You are serving the humanity in love. It makes me feel that somewhere deep inside of us we feel that we all are one. The sense of unity, integrity and love for the humanity is amazingly much more than that we had decades ago. May be I sounded a bit low. But believe me, this is not jargon or rhetoric. I feel this has come from my heart seeing your good work. Cheers
(mukesh)
You are the bomb. I tried for 6 hours yesterday to get The 7th Guest running with Windows ME and built in sound card. Your download did the trick. THANK YOU
(Dan)
Your web page was very helpful. It only took about 30 seconds to get my bearings and I found what I wanted easily. Keep it up your team is doing a very good job.
(Bradley)
This is my first time at this site. I just can't believe what I have been missing. You have so many answers for the number of questions that I thought of in a short amount of time. Thank you for creating such a great site. My students in PC Computers and Networking will enjoy going to your site with their homework assignments from me. Thanks again,
(Steve)
G'day Whoever created this Site . A really big THANK YOU from me .I have just started an IT
correspondence course to become an PC Technician .The hardware part I can deal with , but this DOS stuff left me shaking my head . I've only worked in GUI interfaces so far 9x/ME/XP & so forth .Being a GUI baby spoilt me I
think. Well , on my second assignment they wanted me to create DOS Batch files ,etc. The coursework seemed to assume that I knew the basics of it .....WRONG !. I did a search in Google in
desperation and found your Site . I now know what they are talking about .I found it to be in terms that I can understand .Now I can get on with the assignments with a good
resource behind me. I've built about 20 PC's unassisted so far , I have 6 on a LAN at home now all 9x / XP . But I had never had to use DOS thankfully . Now I can use DOS when I have to .
Thank you again :) Regards (Paul)
It was so easy to find the solution and the fix so quick. Thank you. Your URL should be in the Bookmarks of all Computer Support Staff.
(Rosmarie)
I just purchased "Troubleshooting Windows/Smart Computing Learning Series Vol 8 Issue 6" and found your website in the "Free Computer Help" article. I have been looking for a site like this for some time. I have been able to find several answers to the questions I have had, from the small annoyances to the biggies...I can fix my parent's computer now. My 3 yr. old "broke" it. Thank you very much. I think this site is great!
(Ali)
Your site is GREAT! I found everything I needed to resolve the problem I was having with my hard drive. Navigation on you site is also GREAT! A few click and I had my answers, but even more important than that is, THEY WORKED! Thank you.
(Alias)
I forget how I discovered your website but I somehow did. It really is about the best I've seen! Microsoft Support isn't for people like me and I find I go in circles trying to find answers.
Yours is put together so well and it's easy to find everything I need. Your section on Fatal Exceptions finally helped me to understand exactly what they are and what they mean. I guess they all refer to processor problems. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything in layman terms. I don't feel so dumb now.
(Sharon)
I easily found ALL the answers I needed. The information you provide here is very clear cut and right to the point. I Thank You (and my wife Theresa thanks you) for such a great site. Now maybe I can finally get some sleep.
(Paul)
While being reasonably knowledgeable about using computers, I have never partitioned or formatted a hard drive before and was very nervous. I found your simulations very helpful and all the sections very well explained. Thanks very much.
(Jean)
A Site like this is rare at best. I think I speak for everyone that enjoys the excellent few remaining aspects of the Internet.
(Andrew)
I usually don't leave comments but in this case I had to. I just wanted to let you know this site rocks. I have got a lot clarification on
different subjects from your site. probably the best overall site on the web. if at all possible
I would like you to give out more debug information concerning more troubleshooting issues thanks again.
(Cowboy)
Very comprehensive. I simply went to Google, punched in "computer batteries", your site came up,
I clicked on it and instantly found the information
I wanted i.e. life of a CMOS battery.
thanks and keep up the good work (Ccwhite1)
I am glad that I found your site I was able to understand the info being that I am not computer literate. you made the info so easy to understand that even a
dummies could understand. thanks. (Constance)
I have been locating Google and other search engines and other
sites. often many to find answers to my IT related doubts...now I am fully satisfied that
I am able to find everything in a single site...and I really thank everybody associated with this site...this is really the top and root of IT...full of
dictionary, quiz ..and everything, THANKING YOU. (PRASANTH)
The MS-DOS help on this site is excellent. I am a programmer, and enjoy working with old computers. Your site helped me with running an IBM-PC, and it walked me through creating .BAT programs. Thanks a lot!
(Ian)
A great site, though understandable hard to find exact information because of sheer volume present. Your database is very well done and I am thankful that you do not ask for upfront payment to access the information. A wonderful example of what the Internet is suppose to be. From now on I will be checking your site first for all my dos/windows information. Thx.
(Philip)
Thank you so much, I was looking for information on how to create a screenshot for a tutorial I'm working on. I visited other websites for so-called answers but found them to be "as clear as mud". Only your site gave crystal clear instructions, enabling me to create a screenshot within minutes. Thanks again.
(David)
I am a total zero when it comes to anything technical. My minesweeper game had moved partially of the page and I could no longer play. The MSN help site was impossible, so I did a
Google search and landed on you. Your hints were easy follow and my problem was solved immediately (deleted winmine.imi file). Fantastic. You are now on my "favorites" list.
(Larrikin)
I spent 30 minutes trying to navigate the Microsoft site got 3 core dumps on the
Unix system at work before doing a search on Google and clicking on the link to your site. You had just what I needed "System Requirements" for Win98 SE Thanks
(Skip)
I have to tell you, I love your website. I am going to send this site to everyone I know. I just discovered it today when I typed in a search for invalid system disk error and saw your site and found out more info than I have ever seen on any site before. Usually you have to go to SEVERAL sites for different problems, but your site has all the answers. Just wanted to let you know. Have a great day
(Valerie)
I actually felt warm and fuzzy after the experience. Thank you
(Rick)
I couldn't get my mic to work-- I assumed line in mic line out speakers within 20 seconds of finding your help page
I had found the solution --- you people should get involved with politics etc because you know what your on about.
(Dave)
To start with this site is great I found what I was looking for in three minutes flat. That was after spending 45 minutes on Microsoft Knowledge base. All I wanted was a definition of an error code which I have now from you. Keep up the good work!

I do not have a Unix box at my home; Therefore I had to rely on a "man" page I didn't have access to. Your website provided the "CAT" extensions to give me the answers I was looking for. Thanks

I have a lot of bad habits, but exaggerating isn't one of them. Your site is great help for hardware newbies who are literate and have brains :)

Thank you so much for this site, which I "happened" on in the wee hours of the morning. I had been working on a lot of software/hardware "stufffor my PC's, getting more frustrated by the minute. Your site provided the answers to every single question/confusion I had. The entire team is very talented at providing and presenting information in a
"clear-concise-non-patronizing" manner/format that speaks to a variety of learning styles. Not an easy task and very refreshing. There's a lot of "junk" out "there" and my only regret is not finding your site WEEKS ago. Please don't go away...if you do, take me with you. Thanks again and again!!!! :)

Just found this thru Google.com!! To call the info here excellent would make me guilty of the biggest understatement since Noah looked up and said "Might rain today".

Back again! I never seem to be away. As ever, I found what I was looking for. Brilliant site - bookmarked long ago. I send everyone here - including readers of Web User magazine! Off to set up a network now - using your help. (Thanks very much.) See you soon. Best wishes,

Just wanted to let you know I think your site is a great nugget of knowledge on the web.
I see so many bullshit sites everyday it makes me sick. thanks for contributing and keeping the knowledge free.

I work for Comcast, 2nd level support, and I refer people to your articles for known issues that we can't troubleshoot here, because it's not a
Comcast issue. (Tiffany)
I see that my favorite newsletter has arrived, and; it appears to be a bit early. As always, it is a real treat to read it end-to-end. It was of particular interest to me to read about excite@home. This company serves a distinct purpose for me. It represents a difficult and costly lesson that I needed to learn as a full-time investor. I lost a small fortune, (to me
anyway), on excite.
The rest of the newsletter was either fascinating or very useful. I do not know how you pick your subject matter, but I do know that it is always "relevant" to today's issues in technology.
Mostly, I am writing to tell you I appreciate your effort in getting out the newsletter. I hope that you have had the luxury of being able to find/hire some help. If not, then "even more praise be heaped upon you."
I retired at 46 y/o from Hospital Administration. That was 4 years ago and now I have an eight month old son, (our first and only), and too many clients for my home business - helping Physicians invest wisely.
However, if you need a "grunt" to answer some email, or do mind-numbing research, etc. etc. please let me know. I will allocate a reasonable "chunk" of time each week and draw up a schedule for your approval or modification.
This is my way of saying that I believe in you and in what you are doing. It also serves as good practice for bringing my Son up to date on technology issues. Sure, he doesn't understand me right now...but who knows...hey?
It is not necessary to respond to this note unless you have the time or inclination or need a new "grunt." Good luck, and thanks again for my newsletter. I remain, Respectfully yours,

I just recently found your web site. Now I am beginning to wonder how I ever got by without your web site! :) Your site is very, very helpful, easy to use and understand, and the supporting links are wonderful. Thank you so much for taking the time to create such a great web site.

Man. I know a fair amount about computers, but was totally stumped on a "missing NTLDR" error. You gave a 3-step fix that took care of my problem. You guys rock!

My husband and I were in the process of reformatting our hard drive (I've only done this once and he's never had the 'pleasure') Anyway, we found exactly what we were looking for on this site and I just wanted to let everyone at Computer Hope know that I've sent this link to EVERYONE I know!!! This TRULY is a Wonderful and
Informative Site!!! It's so nice to get free technical support for a change!!! :)

I would just like express my appreciation to the personnel and creators of Computerhope.com. I'm seventeen years old and I have yet to find means of learning what I need to know to excel in the computer world, that is, until I found this website. From my personal experience I have noticed that the computer industry is a dog-e-dog world, and people will find the most persuasive ways to drain you of your hard-ea |
