    A simple fix that has worked for me and many others is to.... unplug your pc completeley, that is take the power lead out fromn the back of the tower.... switch off from the mains first............. wait 5 or ten mins and plug it back on........ See HERE
    :confused:I have nothing better to do!!!!:confused:
