computer help: IM SO SCREWED! - Help.com

Hahaha. Oh my god. I’m sorry this is pretty funny. How the hell did you do that. You like wiped the hard drive? ****. I don’t know what to tell you about that. And the homepage thing depends on your browser.

you see the little button that looks like a house? you click that and click “add or change homepage…
You might be able to get some of the stuff back from the computer if you call some computer guy…idk though…that happened to my computer and I was able to get SOME files back…good luck!

Thanks!! thats one thing off the list, but now I have another question.

what is your other question?

I know! so you right click on the main screen and click properties and click “settings” and adjust the “screen resolution”

I’m such a computer geek

It takes a long time to fix a computer memory. Somethings you may not be able to restore, or at least to it’s original form and your mom may notice. I think you should be honest and tell her that you deleted it.

I’m curious how you did this Nante?

Couldn’t you just like do that thingy where you tell your computer to system restore to like a week ago or something? My techie son is not in this room so now I sound like a tard :P

Or anything saved on a disk before the information was lost?

you right click again and click properties and this time go to “Desktop” and find it

But..

oh no…there’s always a “but”

Call tech support! I’m not good with computers, so I’ll find the number for the Microsoft tech people. If you live in the US, here’s the list of numbers:

Good luck with the situation. =) I can’t offer as much help as SingerInPurple, but I’ll stay on the site to see if I can help.

I dont know if its just help.com, but all my text looks weird and pixalated, its not Bold like it should look anyone can help with that?

I don’t know what the problem is, so I think you should do what debrad said and call tech support…sorry! hope it works out!

Hm, sorry, I didn’t know they charged for that. I’ll try to think of something else.

On my computer you can go to the Control Panel, Then go to System and Maintenance. Theres something that says Backup and Restore center. And you can restore all previous settings. I’m not sure if your moms computer has that, but you can check and see.

Yes, it worked okay now my next problem is the background screen, its some preinstalled background that comes with Windows, how do I find it?

You could tell her you got a different background for her.
:P

Idk, It matters what kind of computer she has I guess. Mine might be newer so things might be different. I’ve done that before, I was curious what the refresh button did. Im not there so it’s harder to explain how I restored my custom settings.
