os issues

I am at my wits end with this. I have had my Asus laptop for almost a year with no problems with the OS. After weeks in hospital finally got home and turned on the laptop. Now I am getting repeated error messages saying my OS is not genuine. ANY advice or thoughts are much appreciated.

I have a very odd problem that happened out of the blue. W7 Home Premium 32 bit, no viruses or recently installed programs. As you can see in the screenshots, theres that "icon" that says the OS doesn't recognize the program. MANY of them. What can be causing this, any help would be appreciated...

So I force restarted my computer and it showed up the black screen of death. I can't run in safe mode, I just can boot other OS's, like Ubuntu. I can stay with ubuntu and I thought it was an os problem, so I installed ubuntu but it keeps showing up me the black screen of death. I searched for...

If you have a laptop and are considering adopting a "Windows 7 OS" right now. It might be more prudent to hold off. Windows 7 has been labeled the biggest blood sucker of Lithium Batteries than any other "OS" that proceeded it. There have been many complaints that Windows 7 effectively kills...

This has been going on since I downloaded the OS. Everything works fine, except when I want to "Save Image As" to save an image to my computer, or upload a picture, for say, an avatar. When I try, my computer shows that it's going through the process, but then it stops and doesn't do anything...

I'm running windows 7 64-bit on a dell xps 13. Almost everything is great, and I'm impressed with the OS as a whole. My only grudge is that whenever I try to play a movie on youtube, firefox stops responding, and has to be closed. This happens in both IE and firefox. Are there any...

Recently upgraded to windows 7 and in many ways I like it a lot. I went right from xp to 7 so maybe the downsides I have are holdovers from that stepchild. Dual screening in 7 is horrible. Many of my applications that I used to run spread across both screens or nearly across both screens fail to...
