Hello - I opened the lap-top & was met with the alert message above & it suggested I cantact the product supplier (ugh) can you give me an idea as to what I can do on my own ? (I have recently removed a few applications/programmes to give me more operating vigour as it used to freeze) - through the correct control-panel procedure I removed MSworks (using the CD) and a previous down-load application (iplayer) - has this anything to do with it ? Anything you can advise would be appreciated ! (Thanks)
