Comments (3)Barbra- So good to see you on this forum as well. Glad you are up and running again- that would drive me insane! am so dependent on my PC, I would have to go to the library every day if mine went down! Merry Christmas!...See MoreJust got a new computer...
Comments (11)If this is Windows 7, yes the create system image will do an image backup for you. Back up to DVDs or an external hard drive. The system repair disk, if I recall correctly, is not the same as the recovery disks mentioned by Zep, Genes, and Owbist. It is also important, but the recovery disks will be your life-saver (it has been mine). My Win 7 recovery took 4 blank DVDs. The system repair disk is only one disk, I believe. You should have a separate partition (D?) on your laptop called the recovery partition. This is what you need to put on DVDs. Your Toshiba manual (probably an online PDF) should explain how this is done. I purchased a Toshiba portable external hard drive, and that is where I store my backups. I have my recovery DVDs stored in a safe place....See MoreNew thread to try to solve computer problem please
Comments (35)I should mention that I just took AOL off my computer after 8 years. I understand AOL leaves bits of itself all over as well. When I followed your instructions I ran into a snag but tried to continue on. Hopefully Norton is gone.

Comments (11)Justme... Thanks again for the link to Fox News, but I wonder how your found it given the link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/nocksfuze That is, how did you relate "nocksfuze" to Fox News. I did explore the site at ..../channel and found many choices, but never found the Fox News Channel. I searched on "Fox News" not on "nocksfuze". To answer my other question, a 1.5 mb Internet access (DSL in my case) is sufficient to get the tv programs I watched. There may have been a few breaks, but not many. I did note extra commercials to pay for this service which were far more annoying than any down load speed limitation. As luck would have it we had a thunder storm in Northern NJ yesterday and it took my cable service down. It was off and is still off as there appears to be a problem unique to my address - Comcast tech is coming by around noon time today. So, the Internet access was the only access I had to my favorite Fox programs last night - it works, but I'll admit I like the big screen tv better. In any case, this gave me a trial run on getting Fox News only on my computer....See Morecactusmcharris, interior BC Z4/5
