Sony VAIO Laptop graphics drive?
I've had my Sony VAIO for 6-7 years now so it's not new but then again, I'd expect the life time of the laptop be longer (especially considering the price I paid for it all those years ago).
Problem:
I think it's due to my laptop overheating (as the laptop has recently got very hot), but the graphics drive nvlddmum is not responding. Hence, my laptop refuses to even start up properly. The screen is completely pixalated but you can read it. It gets to the 'welcome' stage of start up and then freezes. But I can run my laptop (ie start it up) in safe mode - but again, the screen is pixalated. Anyone come across this problem?! How can I solve it?!
Thanks for your help :)

5 AnswersMakeup1 decade agolump on collar bone?
There's a lump, less than 2cm in length just short a hand's width from the centre of my collar bone, above the right side of my collar bone. There is no sign of redness in that area. It hurts when I touch it / move to a certain position which affects it.
It's not "solid" like touching my collar bone but it's not very "soft" either.
Any ideas what this could be?
2 AnswersPain & Pain Management1 decade agoTop 9 reasons why Henry VIII broke with Rome?
Please list them in order of importance as well:
1. Being the most important amongst your choice of 9 reasons
9. Being the least impotant amongst your choice of 9 reasons
I'm not really sure where to put the reasons - so I was wondering what others thought as well.
I know about the divorce which in my view only seems to be classified into one reason: Henry VIII wanted a male heir
Although having said that, perhaps pressure from Anne Boleyn could have been a factor too?

3 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoForensic Science (qualification)?
Is there anyone here who is a forensic scientist and can tell me more about their job? (please state the field of forensic science that your in).
I'm currently in year 10 and am interested in forensic science as a future career, however, I have no idea what A-levels I need to take. Currently at GCSE I do: all 3 sciences, maths, english, spanish, classical greek, textiles, history and geography.
I've heard that I need to take Chemistry or Biology - but is that true?
The field of forensic science I'm interested in, is either:
Forensic Science (Physics),
Forensic Science (Chemistry),
Forensic Crimology,
Forensic Maths &
Forensic Reconstruction.
Therefore with the above in mind, what should I take for A-level?
(Please do no answer this question if you are just going to google some sites and use them as the answer - thanks)
3 AnswersHigher Education (University +)1 decade agoLaptop freezing for no reason?
My laptop is reasonably new, had it for almost a year now and its never done this before.
I was surfing the net as usual and suddenly it just froze, and i'm 100% sure that it wasn't anything to do with the RAM because i only had two internet explorer windows opened and my RAM is rather fast anyway.
I thought it would be a 'one-off' incidence and so unplugged the charger. But no! It's done it for the second time.
I've tried scanning for spyware and it comes out clean, checked if it is a virus and it comes out clean... what am I to do?!
Please can you help - no suggestions on buying those registery cleaners please.
Thanks so much!
