The disk in question is a new 4 TB, or 3.64 TiB (3726 GiB), Seagate BarraCuda, initalized as a GPT...

Hi guys.
Unfortunately I have lovely neighbours who keep hacking me and have done on my windows laptop for the last 7 months.
I want to switch off any facilities that allow them to make any changes to the laptop that will cause it to have problems.
So I would like network sharing off. Remote...
Hi I have a problem which googling hasn't provided an answer too. It's not really a BSOD but a startup issue.
If I start my laptop normally (from powered off), it only gets as far as the first windows logo (no rotating icon) and then powers off.
If I start from a recovery USB and continue to...

The other day, I attempted to make a Windows 8 Recovery USB using my external hard drive and the Media Creation tool. I specifically made a new partition for this process, as I had two other partitions on it with data. Making sure that the partition that was empty was selected, I successfully...

So it happened and my hard disk...

Just noticed that since upgrading to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1, I have 2 recovery partitions. Does Windows 10 automatically create a new recovery partition? If I create a Recovery USB Drive, will it be Windows 10 or Windows 8.1? I can't do anything with either of these partitions via Disk...
Hi there,
Not sure if this is the right forum but here goes.
I have a Samsung NP9000 model NP900X4C-A05AU. It regularly crashes due to full memory. It has 8G of RAM, running Windows 8.1. It's done this since day 1 - I managed to remove some Samsung bloatware that mitigated the problem...
Hi
I decided that I should, create a System Recovery DVD for my new computer.
However when I try and do it I only get the option to create a recovery USB Drive.
I did that but I'd still like to make a DVD disk.
Anyone know how you do this?
Ps. I see that my system recovery USB drive has an...
