Hi I've been thinking about the Windows 8 recovery option, mostly because I can't start the Windows Firewall. And Windows Recovery won't do what I want it to do. I want to do essentially what you could do in Windows 7, replace the operating system while retaining your installed software and...

Anybody else seen this behavior? Why would changing a SATA controller to a different mode (AHCI to RAID) cause Windows to become deactivated? No Hard Drive changes were made. I will give it some time to see if it comes back, but this is strange. I do have Media Center installed, possibly the...

Hello, I've had an ongoing war with my PC for four days now. I have Windows 7 and it refuses to start up. Originally I tried starting up normal, it gave me two choices: system repair or start as normal. If I chose normal it would show the windows logo then reset. If I chose repair it would turn...
