My computer is getting problems and slower? How to fix or Should I get new computer?

December 30, 2009

Lately like over the last week I feel my computer is getting very slow has several prolems.
This is a list of some problems
1. Unable to turn off computer(fixed)
2. My CPU constantly warming up.
3. Either unable to open email or very slow (my family usee aol and i use yahoo both has this problem on this same computer we share).
4. Similar sites all of a sudden becomes very slow and some are fast.
such as yahoo.com takes a sec.mail.yahoo.com takes forever.

Is there a way to get it to move faster or is it time for me to get a new computer?

Also I have a dell desktop and has had it for 1 and a half year.
Another problem is I am trying to download a aprox 4 mb document where it is taking over 15 minutes and at most it supposively should be taking less than 3 mins normally. The internet speed i have is verizon high speed.
Sorry but I am not so good with the computer.

Motorola K1m – connecting issues and MTP device driver?

December 4, 2009

Instead of purchasing the music essentials kit I followed the advice of a forum and downloaded the Motorola driver software for my phone as well as VZW Music Manager. When connecting my phone to my laptop (34bit Vista home premium) the device driver installation recognizes and installs the motorola software.

Motorola USB composite device
Motorola USB modem #2
Motorola USB diagnostic port

My problem is that the MTP device goes from being "ready to use" to "searching for preconfigured driver software". The VCAST Music Manager shows that my phone is not connected and I am unable to sync my phone to my computer. I know that during the moments when everything is ready to use that everything is working properly because my phone registers as charging.

I called Verizon tech support and they were un able to help me. I went to Microsofts website and couldn’t find anything that really solved my problem. Can someone please help me out!! :]
I don’t have a removable disk for the phone.

I have Verizon as my ISP and have the Verizon Security Suite as my virus protection for my desktop computer. I just bought a laptop and have connected it to the internet through a Belkin N wireless router. Do I need seperate virus protection on the laptop itself? Thanks!
