Hello! So I first started seeing BSOD only when gaming (World of Warcraft) but now it is appearing while browsing the web as well. I recently reformatted my PC, as I had planned to do in the near future to delete my other OS on the system I no longer used. I thought maybe if I just went ahead...

I had to reformat my Win 8 DP partition and then restore from an Image I had created. When I did this I lost the fancy new Win 8 DP Boot Screen (boot loader). I did have to go into Win 7 and use EasyBCD to add my Win 8 DP OS to the MBR, but the boring old Win 7 boot screen comes up, even when I...

I get BSODs before Windows7 even starts to load. I can't get in through Safe Mode, I still get BSODs. I've tried System Restore, it won't restore, probably because of the BSOD, 0x8000ffff. I've tried everything in the Advance Recovery Method and Startup Repair. It said something about my hard...

Hi I'm new here and I do have a tiny background in installing Windows 7. As of my experience goes, all i have done are clean installs and for once in my life I have never done a not clean/unclean install before. Here's the thing, a friend of mine asks me to reformat his old acer notebook from...

So I've finally snapped. For over a year now I've been enduring this god forsaken problem, dismissing and ignoring it as much as I could whenever it reared its ugly head. I can take it NO MORE. My patience has run out! Now, as much as I like to think I'm good with computers, there's quite a...

Hi. I have Windows 7 originally installed on an old HDD and recently purchased an SSD. How do I go about installing windows 7 into the SSD and deleting it from the old HDD? Is a reformat of the HDD the only way?

So, here's the story. One day, while I was browsing the internet, I noticed that my touchpad (yes, I'm using a laptop) won't work. I tried reinstalling the driver for the said hardware but it won't work. The pointer moves when I move my finger on the touchpad but it won't respond when I tap the...

So, I shutdown my computer this morning and it was installing 96 updates, so I left it and went to school. I came back after 6-7 hours and it was stuck on 68/96 updates installing, I left it for another 30 min and it was still on 68/96. I decided to press the reset button, even though it said...

I'm tasked with fixing this laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Build 7600 because of issues with it 'crashing'. Found it to be freezing randomly. I would log in, do nothing and let the system sit there and it would freeze eventually, I would be able to move the cursor but I could not...

I recently reformatted my PC and have noticed that areas which properly supported Unicode beforehand no longer do. For example, although Unicode text shows correctly in the majority of Windows Explorer, when I right click on files to view the properties the text field that shows the file name...

Hi, I tried searching the forum first but . . . I recently reformatted my HP and though I figured out once before how to get rid of HP QuickWeb at start-up and permanently hide the dock, it seems I have gone senile; just can't figure it out. Maybe because a couple other weird glitches occurred...
