Help

Hi, I just got a Gateway laptop. It's not new but i'm having a big problem. I turn the computer on and it logs in and everthing but after 2 minutes or so a blue screen pops up quickly and the computer restarts. What should i do?

Ok this may sound like a weird thing to ask but do you guys know how to find a person's address on the computer with only know their name, and their general location

 

Not wierd at all... Go to www.whitepages.com and just search within a particular state. You can search surrounding area also, but if it is a common name, you may get a LOT of results... I found several people with my name! :-D It is interesting to do too....

 

Glad to here you're up and running Now, no excuses for not visiting the rest of the forum Just kidding, but it is a great place here. :-D

 

I've tried but he has like the most common name in all of new york, stein lol

 

OK, that could be a problem in NY.... That is a tad large... :confused
If you know his age, try this: http://www.zabasearch.com/;)

 

are there any sites you can go to that are free?Some say they are and find the person but want $ to yell you any thing.I would love to know,I have not sees my brother in about35 years.There are some others I would love to find very much.

Thank you very much

 

Hi, try both links I posted below... both are real good, and for basic services, you can find almost anyone, but they do charge for background checks, but that is all.. You do not have to pay for anything unless you want a background check.. Try the http://www.whitepages.com and if you can't find it there, try the
http://www.zabasearch.com

With ZABA search, you will get a more detailed result, including date of birth and wives, etc... That is all free, and if you want any extensive stuff, sure, they will charge for that, but I have used both and just for finding people I lost touch with, and was all free and I got great results... Hope you find who you find them
