Okay listen; I havent posted in here for a while and this question isnt really about Turing, but my friend has this problem where he pressed the WINKEY + 'U' and it brought up the Utility Manager; this messed up his PC and now he cant get it to change back to its original format. Can anybody help??. It would be greatly appreciated. Wink

Tony; you are the best one tith PC's; so maybe you acn help:D

And once again i apologize for posting this in the Turing esction; i understand it has no significance to WINoOT but I did not kno where else top put it and I need your help so bad.. If this kid doesnt change it back to its original format then he is to be explelled.. So please just help me..)

huh? Confused

Utility just brings up stuff like Magnifier, Onscreen keyboard and Narrator... the accessability stuff..

Just go back to the same screen and turn them off..

Otherwise just format it. Yes... format is the answer to any software problem Laughing

I thought winkey + u is shutdown, but nvm I see. Isn't it just magnifyer, onscreen keyboard and narrator??? only the magnifyer would change the screen on the top. and I like this dude better:

We have tried time and time again to unChange the settings and still it does nothing. Unless there is a lil check box that we just havent noticed yet- Ill look into it more but until then we're basically screwed.. And about formatting- i agree; it solves everything! But seeing how its our school computers that MIGHT just be adding to the problem..lmbo Laughing

How do they know that it was your friend who screwed up the computer? Is it just his account that's messed up? If that's the case, why should they care? It's his problem and if they feel like helping him out, the will. Otherwise he screwed himself over, and I really doubt that's something bad enough to expell him over. Have they made any threats?

Sad thing is it IS that bad- they have made threats. They're werried that others may try it or something; man I dunno- its so stinkin pathetic.. But yeah- I still havent fixed it and it is only on HIS account- they shouldnt be werried but you know teachers; stupid.. Anyhoo- g2g. end of day! BYE!
