RE: Can connect to internet via ethernet but will not find wireless connection at all

Having just had a similar issue with a BT HomeHub, I would always recommend removing the (largely superfluous) additional wireless software and use the Windows in-built stuff. That way you have less to troubleshoot. Windows will not find any wireless networks if other software is installed and controlling it instead (as previously stated). The sky setup is supposed to make things easy - as was the BT CD. Myself - I can't see how following the setup of Windows (which is the same for EVERYONE running Windows...) is not the easiest method.

RE: after an hour i have to reboot as i cant open any more webpages, after that its fine but this is reo

I sometimes have a problem with my laptop using a wireless connection, in that the connection will sometimes just drop. We had the problem badly using a Sky provided router, and this has gotten much better when replaced by a Draytek one. However, I still get the occasional wireless drop, and the quickest resolve is to switch the wireless off for about 5 seconds, and then switch it back on. I still do not know why this is, although I have suspicions that it is related to Intel wireless cards - unfortunately these account for probably 85% of the internal laptop wireless cards in use today.

RE: External LCD display for Laptop showing blue

Try (gently) wiggling the cable where it joins your laptop. If the screen flickers, it is almost certainly a bad connection there. I am assuming that when you changed the monitor that you changed the VGA cable at the same time? IE not using an extension cable or anything like that - as these symptoms could easily be explained by a bent pin in a VGA connector, that somehow has been used with both monitors?

Outline

We provides small business and home-users with IT/computer solutions, including networks and servers for business as well as troubleshoot, repair and upgrade services, among many others.

Our home-user healthcheck service is very popular, where we pickup the machine from you and look at it in our workshop for a few days. During this time all updates are completed, all junk (including viruses/malware) is removed, anything that can be done to make the PC faster is completed and worthwhile suggestions are made (e.g. add extra memory for £xx) where appropriate. The machine is delivered back and plugged in for you, all for a low fixed cost.

For businesses we simply offer expertise in business, since we find a lot of IT people claim to know about server networks and really don't, causing you downtime and headaches that you just don't need in business. We offer complete solutions for all your business IT and technical support needs, including Voice over IP.
