All right my computer seems to be all right but yet thee I some really stupid problems.

Problem #1: When ever I restart my computer or log in on my account it says Found New hardware (Witch Is My Monitor) but yet it did not come with software or any drivers so I just press cancel about 5 seconds later the pop up comes up again and again and again and it is really bugging me but after it [popping up about 10 times it goes away Any one got any ideas and I also cant find any drivers on the internet so im out of luck.

Problem#2 My internet Explorer is being a \*\*\*\*\* the problem with it is when I try opening a link from [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com) or [Flaskit.com](http://Flaskit.com) forums it locks up on me I cant open any links in forums or other kind of websites but I can from goggle.

That’s my problems  
Also I used windows update and still nothing is working.

check the monitors website for any drivers…etc.

Next time you are asked for your monitor, tell Windows that your monitor is a Standard VGA 1024x768 (1280x1024), etc. That may prevent your comp from prompting you every time you restart.

If you are on XP/ME, do a system restore to a date when your computer worked well. If your issue is software related, system restore usually solves the problem 🙂
