Hm... well, my computer is practically brand new. It was a replacement for my other laptop that the keyboard went bad on. They sent me a new computer and let me keep the old one, so I got a brand new computer for $80.

But I digress... the computer won't let me copy anything or run anything in Safe Mode. I haven't messed with it for a while because it stormed terribly here (tornadoes, hail, lightning, etc).

I've run the restore to previous time, but that too didn't work.


Al, I've had the computer since January, I think. It does run a lot, but I turn it off when I'm done using it 98% of the time. No weird sounds. How do I get the CMOS? How do I use a disk with DOS commands?


The mouse and sound card aren't really an issue right now. I think I know that the sound card is a driver issue. But the mouse can't be worn out, it just won't let the tap option say unselected.

Thanks for the help, again, everyone.
