Windows Backup doesn't detect my existing VHD file on the local hard drive I used Windows Backup to create a backup of my C: partition. Foolishly, I put it on drive D. Later, I realized that I shouldn't store it on the same physical disk with the C: partition, so I moved it to partition F: Last...

Well, I have stepped in it this time and boy could I use some help. Setup an XP/7 dual boot on two partitions on same drive. All good. Removed XP boot entry with easybcd. All good. Set 7 partition to Active. All good. Booting to 7 worked fine with the old XP partition still on the disk...

Hi, I recently installed Windows 7 home premium 64-bits. I upgraded it from a Windows vista business 32-bits. That was not trivial, but it worked fine. Problems came when a driver "classpnp.sys" made the system halt. Repair programs did not work until I copied another file over the driver and a...

Looks like what happened to me has happened to others. When I installed 7 it put it on my Recovery D drive. Then I installed it correctly on my C drive. Now when the computer reboots I get the screenshot that shows Windows 7 twice. Somewhere on this forum I saw someone post the procedure to...

Sooo I've never seen this problem and I don't really know where to start with it. I have two hard drives, Windows on the C and media on S, I decided to clear some space on S, as it was 4/5 full, and deleted a folder that was about 80 gigabytes. The weird thing is it went to the recycle bin...
