  1. A burglar stole my laptop, had a windows installation


    I checked the Microsoft devices section few times at first it showed the location with was at my house, after a couple of days it now says "Never updated"location data isn't available with 0% battery. I'm not sure whether I switched on "find my device". Lost this laptop on 10th July early morning, could the laptop have locked itself if it was connected to the internet? I did try to lock it the next day but it failed.

    :)

    Burgled -- New laptop taken

    It was last week and I'm still quite upset over this. Recently got a Sony Vaio and it was not even 3 weeks old when it was taken.

    Are there any experts out there who can, with details of MAC address, etc., trace the location of the laptop (therefore, also the low life burglar)?

    I mean what is the fate of stolen laptops besides the obvious sale.

    The laptop runs on Windows 7 (64-bit) and is requires a passphrase at the logon screen. What are the first few steps to take before making the loot saleable?

    ps. my passport was also taken. Seriously!?!! What good is it to the burglar?!

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.
