Hi:
No, I don't.  I'm from Joisey, but now live in Illinois.
Been to Queens many times back, in the day.  Can you still go over the QB Bridge for free?
I miss the NY style pizza. I go home once a year for my pizza "fix."
Let your fingers do the walking thru the yellow pages, is my only recommendation (or online).
"HP computer repairs," is how I would search by.

    It seems that my bios has lost its information, i phoned Hp about it and it appears my computer needs to be retatood or something along them lines, as my warranty has past i would have to pay £200 to get it fixed (rip off I know) they said this could be down to changing the hardware (i have not touched anything inside my computer as im not great with hardware aspect of computers, i am with software though. After i seen the "serial number not found" message appear i started to get messages like "please activate windows you have 30 days remaining (something along them lines) i have tried entering the product key thats on the bottom of the computer but some of the key has wear on it which makes it hard to read, so i tried a factory restall and hell broke loose, im getting error messages that i cannot use this factory installed partition thats on my hard drive.
    Please help, im not paying for hp mistakes is there anything i can do, or something in there t&c that makes this there problem as they design motherboards to fail like this?

  • "Serial Number Not Found" and battery not charging

    Hi,
    I have a problem with my Compaq mini 110c 1030sf. It started a few months ago, when a weird red message appeared on the Compaq boot logo : "Serial Number Not Found".
    Everything was still working fine though, that's why I did not try to fix it.
    However, about a month ago, when I started the computer (it had been inactive for three weeks), the battery was not charging. Since then, I can't run the computer using the battery, I have to let the AC adapter plugged.
    Windows said : 0%, not charging.
    Ubuntu says : 0%, completely charged
    I removed the battery and put it back, it started to charge, but stopped after 3 or 4 seconds.
    I also tryed updating bios, but it changed nothing.
    Could anyone please help me ? ^^

    If your mini is still within warranty contact HP.
     Have you tried the battery test in the HP Support Assistant? 
    Your BIOS has issues if you have seen that message. That is something you cannot correct on your own as it requires HP's proprietary software to enter the information in the BIOS.
    Best regards,
    erico

  • I can't fix the "Server Not Found" error

    Ok, when I started up Firefox I was greated with a "Server not found" error, so I thougt to myself, " Ok, I'll just follow the instructions shown". Didn't help, still didn't work. So I dcided to use Internet Explorer until the issue fixed itself, didn't work. So I tried the 64 bit version, that worked. So basically what I'm trying to ask is: is there a 64 bit version to Firefox, or is another solution what i need?

    Close all of your anti-virus software and restart your FF.

  • Serial Number not found now but worked two weeks ago!

    I have input the serial number of my new purchase of ipod photo (second hand) on the support page two weeks ago and it detected that it still have 120 days left for the service plan. But I have just tried to do it again today and it says that there is no such number.
    I live in Canada and I cannot use the page for adding a serial number on the website. What should I do? Does anyone know why is this happenening? I've got this second hand, I hope it's not because this product was stolen or anything!!

  • Serial Number Not Found

    Hello all.
    I've purchased a MacBook Pro Aluminium at Fry's Electornics Palo Alto, CA on June 2009. When I try to apply for a Snow Leopard Upgrade (up-to-date), my serial number is not recognized. What may be happening? Is it possible that I come across any problems if I need to use warranty?
    Thanks in advance.
    < Edited by Host >

    Because I got first hand experience with registering not found serials. I called Apple and they had no record of me buying my book, so they registered the serial to my name and Apple account without any proof of purchase, on the phone and all.
    Sure it would most likely be resolved if someone would have done this to his serial they found here, but it would be extra hassle.

  • HT1349 why is the serial number not found on the records?

    my ipod nano's serial number is not found on the records, why?

    You don't. Why do you think there are any and why do you need it?  iOS apps don't need a S/N since all purchases are via the App Store and recorded there.

    If you and the seller are together, physically, ask the seller to lookup his Apple Support Profile for both of you, and see if the unit is registered to him.
    Sounds like a great idea.
    I just helped a friend purchase and setup her MBAir yesterday, and don't remember putting an "Profile" information in during the setup.
    How do you do look up a Profile?

  • I'm getting a message "404 (page not found error)" I think I entered an incorrect URL into my browser's address bar. How do I fix that?

    I was trying to post a comment on a support group site. I was asked what web address I was using, or something along those lines. In hindsight, I stupidly typed a '?' and pressed send. Now, when I try to access that site I get the message "404 (page not found error)
    If you're the site owner, one of two things happened:
    1. 1) You entered an incorrect URL into your browser's address bar, or
    2. 2) You haven't uploaded content."
    How can I fix this.

    I spoke with a Dell technician about this problem. He tried to access the site in question from his computer, i.e. separate from my computer, and he also got the same "404 (page not found error)". He said the problem lies with the site itself, not my computer, and that I should notify the site. Problem is I can't notify the site if I can't access it.

  • Hard Disk - (3F0) BootDevice not found" Error Message how do i fix this

    Hard Disk - (3F0) BootDevice not found" Error Message

    Sounds like the hard drive has failed and will need to be replaced. If you are still in warranty HP will send a replacement. If not a retail laptop SATA hard drive can be used. Just be sure to get one of at least equal capacity as the original in order to use Recovery Discs. It can be larger, but not smaller capacity.For instance you have a 320GB hdd now so you could use a 500GB hdd but not a 250GB hdd.

  • File not found error (no error number or file identified)

    Hi,
    I am getting a file not found error when trying to render a project. The message box does not identify which file is not found nor is there an error message number. I by trial and error tracked the file to a video connected to the PAL_Projector Menu. It is the PAL_Projector.m2v file. I reconnected it but it still gives a file not found error on render. Any suggestions and why do we get these ridiculous error messages in this day and age. The message should identify the file and how to fix the problem.
    Regards

    Is the error on the client or server?
    What role in the application does applications-mapping.xml fulfill?
