I was never signed in unfortunately. Didn't use an account and I believe it was local. Would there be a file on the old ssd I can find and import the bookmarks manually?
Back up and running on the new ssd, accidentally installed windows 10 home and it wouldn't activate. No wonder, considering after I realized it was windows 8 pro. Installed Pro and it activated fine. Does anyone know where I can find the old chrome bookmarks file and move to over to the new...
Confirmed it was the ADATA SP550 120Gb ssd. Six months old, Can't find my receipt so I may be out of luck for a warranty claim. Bought a new SSD and installing windows now. Chose the don't have a product key option, will this still work despite a hardware change? (the ssd)? What criteria does...
Yeah the SSD was totally wiped. I need some help with how to fresh install Windows 10. I have a legit version of Windows 8 with the discs and key and everything. Some months back I did the upgrade to windows 10 and have been using that. Will the \windows 8 key work when prompted to enter it...
Thanks for the link, my SSD isn't on the compatible list though. I will try it anyway when I go at it again tomorrow. I put the drive in an enclosure and formatted it from a different computer, put it back into the computer in question, and then created a windows 10 media install usb. Booted...
Update on things: the restore froze and ended up failing and it rebooting saying a bunch of random code. It's definitely corrupted and from here I have moved individual important files off the ssd and considering rma'ing it because it seems faulty. My last action I think is to format the drive...
I can't really do much because it freezes even in safe mode. Can't check temps, at least don't know how I could. I ended up just choosing the option to reset the pc and reinstall windows but keep files. If it continues to freeze I think I can assume it\s hardware related. (ADATA 120GB SSD)
At first the power went out and the computer wouldn't boot, and kept trying to repair it but couldn't. Eventually booted it in safe mode and it froze after a minute or two, requiring a hard reset. When I restarted it, it was able to normal boot but continued to freeze after a few minutes and...
Also the laptop is eligible for the windows 10 update. How do I transfer the data to an ssd and keep the hard drive as a backup with windows 7 still on it? Clone the hdd to the ssd and then do the update from the cloned drive?
Pavilion M6 1080CA AMD A10-4600M APU Radeon 8192MB RAM AMD radeon 7600G + HD 7600M Dual Will I have problems getting WIndows 10 drivers for 3 year old laptop?
It is my bosses computer, I am trying to fix it for him. I agree with your idea though, my personal computer is only stuff I use all the time. You know how people are with all these programs they see though, "Tune ups" and all that junk bloatware. This computer has a lot of it.
I rebooted and the chkdsk started, been running about 10 minutes so far without a bsod. I can't access the dump file right but I will when this is done
