Help please!

[mrsmaalox]

What's going on with my laptop? When I click around from page to page, the original screen stays visible in "ghost" form and then slowly fades, leaving the new screen visible. Just been doing this for a couple of weeks. I've been having major pain in the butt troubles with that freaking U-verse, but I don't know if this problem is related.

Hit ctrl +Alt+Delete
Then check the amount of GigaRamZ and MegaHurtZ in your memories.
Remove the hello Kitty magnets and take your coffee mug off of the cupholder.
hit it 4-6X on the side with a closed fist
Make sure you also run it through the dishwasher to clean off any spam or phish that you might not see.
Hope this helps!!!

I probably cannot assist outside of saying your video card and/or LCD may be failing, but if you can tell us what kind of laptop it is it would definitely help.

Sounds like a PEBKAC error.

[Wild Cobra]

Sorry Mrs. Maalox. I don't have a clue what is going on.

If that's Windows 7, check this:

Don't talk to my woman like that!

Can't believe you guys would laugh at my misfortune :dramaquee

I checked out the link El Nono, and I'll try it later when I have more time, thank you. I know this laptop is a pos but it's served me well for what I need: email, something to surf with, ST, FB and Twitter, shopping and storing pictures and music. I'm just too cheap to get rid of something that still works. Now a few weeks ago my husband called me and said he wanted an old laptop to use exclusively for his home-brewing system, and offered to buy me an iPad if I gave him this one. Think I should take him up on that offer? :lol

[leemajors]

Yes you should

[TeyshaBlue]

Your vid card is crapping out.
Get a real tablet. Note 10 should do nicely.

I haven't seen a favorable review of that one.

[ElNono]

If you don't use flash, iPads are great, tbh... have a 3rd gen and highly recommend.

My brother has one. I got to monkey around with it for a few hours. It was pretty slick and smooth as hell.

Ahh, got panned on the verge (5.4) and iPad 4 is much faster in tests. I think the low marks were mainly for the display though.

I prefer the Nexus tablets from Google. Only $200, they'll run flash until HTML 5 takes over, and they're really damned nice.

Mrsmaalox, could you give us a prtscn of the problem?
