My aptop is 2 years old and does not need to be replaced. I am using it now more than ever as my main cpu. Lately I have experienced some probs. For some reason my cd burner will not function or was not (Wen may have fixed it). Just now I realized that the audio control is missing from the taskbar and I am being told by Windows that I need to add the hardware in the control panel before I can put my icon back. In fact I cannot adjust my sound.

Anyhow, what do I need to do to clean this thing and get it back like it was when I first bought it? Do I save all my documents to a disk or flashdrive? Should I even do this at all?

FQ, Use Flashdrive or network and backup all your docs. pics, music .

If it is only two years old it should have recovery CD or onboard Drive.

What brand / model is it.

Then do a restore or rebuild from scratch.

What OS are you running on it?

My laptop is a 12 year old Toshiba PII 300 It is not my primary pc but in a hotel room on the road. and even on my kitchen table it is great to surf the internet and check emails etc.

Yes I would like a newer one. Have been watching a PIII 800 mhz Toshiba going for around $150 on Ebay.

Good luck.
