The computer I'm having a problem on is a HP G6- 635 DX Windows 7 x64. About a week ago I decided to disable a few startup items because my computer took too long to load up. I think I disabled something that I shouldnt have because the next time I restarted I had gotten stuck on the "Starting...

All was working well, I had access to nearly all of my 600GB HD.
I installed Windows 7 upgrade and downloaded...

I reinstalled windows 7 on my mother's computer, and just followed prompts throughout. Seems that I partitioned the hd with C and D drives. The C drive is where all files are at and seems to be the startup drive, and it's only 15 gigs. It is now full. D has 180 gigs and nothing on it. So - how...
A while ago my computer froze up and I couldnt do anything, so I had to restart it. When it came back up my D drive wasn't accesible. If i try to open it it says I need to format it to use it. If I click cancel it says
D:\ is not accessible.
The volume does not contain a recognized file...
Hi
I posed a few days ago someplace that I found that defragmenting my C:\ drive gave me a real increase in read speed. From about 3 Mbs to 30.
I defraged my B:\ drive (a partition of C:\) and today I tacked D:\ it was a long haul, mostly because it has the compressed back up of C:\ on it...
Hi
I know that fragmentation makes a lot of difference.
I've had times when the difference between having fragmented files vs un-fragmented files would determine whether some processes would complete or not when generating 3D video.
If the files were fragmented it would just hang up after a...

Hi
I ran across this tweak, and I liked it.
I'm told that you should not do this in 64 bit Vista?
It always annoyed me that Windows Explorer always opens to the Libraries folder with all the folders expanded, it just makes it look too busy.
.
I never ever put anything in the folders there...

There is single drive in my laptop i.e. C drive and suppose I shrinked that drive through disk management and made two partaion (C drive and D drive)
Now, if i have to format the C drive to install new windows , will the D drive remains or it will also be deleted?
I have Windows 7 Home Premium, which has a C drive and a D drive. Two hard drives.
I just want to know WHY there are two drives. Why was the choice made to have the two drives as opposed to one?
I appreciate any feedback.
As the sibject already told I am seaching for a way to assign sharing permissions FROM COMMANDLINE
for a particular user with particular permission. Something like
defineshare -dir=D:\aaa\bbb -user=myuser123 -perm="full access"
Is this somehow possible?

This is my first visit to the Forum and I find it to be a wealth of information. I have been in the situation the article describes with work files scattered about and knowing I have it, if only I could find it. Libraries sounds as though it will be very useful to me. Thank you for a very...

Hello,
The size of my D drive is 397gb, it is currently showing that I have only 14gb free. There is about 20gb of stuff on my D drive which I can see, not including the roughly 46gb backup file. So, I can only account for 66gb of the 397gb. What should I do? I've ran ccleaner...

This relates mostly to a program that was uninstalled and then reinstalled in a new location on my D:\ drive.
