system issues

My desktop runs with two hard disks. On each of them a Windows 10 version is installed. Recently one of these versions started to function properly. A lot of programs do not work anymore but others do. For example the Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel etc.) function well. The connection...

Since doing the Jan rollup in Windows 7 I am getting 2 Schannel errors 40 and 70 on startup. Everything seems to be working OK. Is this just some timeout issue or something important? Thanks Joe

Hi, I am using a 4 year old Toshiba Satellite C855. In the past few months I have experiencing BSOD, but not that annoying, maybe 1x or 2x a week, the problem is, the BSOD is not during heavy task, just while watching youtube or movies. Now in the past few days I got it almost everyday, and not...

I am running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and lately it's been acting strange. I cannot run chkdsk or any of the other 'fixers' because they just appear on the screen for an instant then disappear. I also cannot update my video cards driver. It says a communication problem. I need to fix the registry...

I've been experiencing BSODs for the last couple of weeks. The causes are often different. I just found this forum today and I hope I have uploaded the correct W7F zip file with the dump files. I have two external hard drives permanently plugged in so that I can back up files to them easily...
