Have you installed the chipset drivers for your mobo? If answer to above question is yes, try running WEI to see if it detects the card.

You might have a windows.old folder left over from the previous install. Other space hogging files are system restore points, hiberfil.sys (hibernation file) and various temporary files. All these can be removed or selectively removed.

If you cant get it to boot mostly either the computer is not set to boot from dvd first or the disk is not bootable or the optical drive's bad. You can vary each of these functions one by one to determine the cause. If you havent yet tried, tap F12 repeatedly at boot to invoke the one time boot...

If you're using a MAK key, the OS should detect hardware change (different serial numbers) and scream for activation. If kms i dont know, maybe when you touch base with the server next time. Other than that, it should be fine. I'm not sure about the ntbtlog.txt part. Do you want to log the boots?

You need to explicitly choose custom install (during the install) to clean install plus use the drive options to format the hard disk and delete/create partitions if desired.

The bsod is saved as a .dmp file in the C:\windows\minidump folder, you need to configure startup and recovery options to use the small memory dump file. In Control Panel click System. Click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings under Startup and Recovery. In the Write debugging information...

Gameux.dll is related to the Game explorer. Try disabling data collection feature in Game explorer. Also check your game compatibility with win7.

Probably a bad/unbootable disk, you could try making another if you use macrium. But there shouldnt be any damage done. You can look for the bsod dump in C:\windows\minidump folder and ask for help to ascertain the exact cause.

If you can link each to a valid process, theres no cause for concern. For those you cant google. There'll be no permanent damage to the system if you just stop a running dll.

MS has a support page for this with both fixit and the reg edit. You receive an "Error 1606" error message when you try to install or remove a Microsoft program

Couple of suggestions. 1) MS later made readymade images available for the upgrade, you can download those. Microsoft responds to Windows 7 student upgrade SNAFU with direct ISO download 2) In case theres any issue with the optical drive, you can also dump the contents of the install...

In task manager, click on "View" tab, click "Select columns", then check the box "Command line". Now you should be able to see the full path of the file. If you hover the mouse over the entry, it'll show the file description. Alternatively you can open up the properties and take a look. Once...

There are many ways of going about it. One is to boot from the win7 install dvd, navigate to command prompt then use the "Clean all" command to wipe the disk/disks. Then create partitions as per choice (say one for the OS and program files, another for data), then install windows. Theres a...

Have you tried updating the driver by right clicking on the device in the device manager? Another thing you can try is to install a freeware or trial driver updater program, that may identify what you need. Also what model is the computer?

Does this happen in safe mode too?
