Thanks I have seen this page. It is a link to a page of compatible logitech cams with ubuntu. I see they used c615 which "works fine". Mine isnt working. What else could I do? The drivers are for Windows or Mac :/

I ordered this cam http://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/hd-webcam-c615 it shows up on cheese, but on skype / gmail / youtube Im not able to pic up any sound or even that "Allow or Deny" icon with the little PC logo behind an eyeball. I cannot click it. This cam should work fine. I am using...

This was the answer! Thank you so much! I love this forums!

I just found this to reset the password which should be very easy: but of COURSE it is saying my DVD burner is NOT FOUND! It is a RW so idk how or why but with that this could have been fixed. FML! http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows7/ht/reset-password-windows-7.htm...

Hi thank you all for responses. In BIOS I only have --- CD/DVD, HDD/SSD, eSATA, FDD, LAN, USB. When I go to F8 I do not have the password anymore. This is my moms old computer. She got very nasty horrible virus' (I did Malwarebytes last night with 202 infections and still more deeper...

Hi I need to reset my hard drive installed with Win 7. I know I can do it without a disc but the options in my "System Restore" only gives me option "with disc". I go: >Control Panel >Recovery >Advanced Recovery Methods Just like this video says here: I do not have cd burner to burn new...

Thanks everyone. We took it to a shop today and Im not sure what they did but its back on now. They told my bf they replaced the motherboard and when he brought it back he said they only charged him $85 for the whole thing. I opened it up and its the same motherboard so hes going to call...

Its an L655D Toshiba 64 bit This is the motherboard for it http://www.sparepartswarehouse.com/Toshiba,Laptop,Part,A000076380.aspx Honestly to buy anything other than a new hdd or RAM I think would end up cheaper in the long run to buy a new laptop. Id like to salvage this one somehow and use...

No that didnt change anything. Black screen, power lights on, fans running > Black screen, charge lights on .....hard drive or RAM...

No Bios. Nothing. Power on > Blank screen > fans running > power light on > Blank screen > fans keep running full throttle My guess is its an hdd issue, but maybe it could be under a warranty? Mostly likely not it is 4 years old. I think most warranties are around 1 year. Hdds arent cheap...

I tried reseting the battery (dismount / hold power button 60sec) Maybe it needs a new power cable, or new battery, but Im posting because the power in the laoptop is running fine. My first guess is the hdd needs replacing. The computer had a nasty nasty viruses. My moms computer she would...

Finally, report fix: Fried DVI monitor cable was the issue. PC back up and running. Back to school! Was on vacation for 2 weeks. When I got back I tried purchasing a new cable. That fixed the red screen solution.

Nvmd now it won't even boot into desktop I give up for the night. The BIOS screen and operating system is extremely distorted looking bright red blotchy colors. fuck

OK so I had everything booted up perfectly right? So I unplugged the monitor and power plug and went over and attached the fan, closed the case, plugged in keyboard, mouse, turned it on and I get this >> I googled it and to the best of my ability I found that when a laptop monitor goes bad it...

Omg I'm going to frickin cry! The standoffs! The frickin standoffs! Mother of God.
