system setup

So, I have a Windows 7 box that I use as a home server. I store all kinds of shared files on the machine include music, pictures, videos, home movies, work related, kids' homework, everything. I created the computer with two hard drives including a SDD drive that i use for the System's core...

I'm wondering if it's possible to do the following: I have Windows 8 installed on my SSD. I also have Windows 8 installed on my HDD. Is it possible to install programs on only one of the instances of Windows 8 and access those programs from both instances of Windows 8? I was hoping to install...

Yes, Uninstallation. So I've been running Win7 and Win8 in dual boot on the computer. The problem is that I'm never using 8 because everything is on 7. And I have no reason to move to 8 because it offers nothing that I don't already have besides a really fvcking ugly and impractical interface...

On my computer there is a pre-installed Windows 8 which works fine for UEFI boot (Secure boot not necessary). Now when I switch in UEFI setup at boot time the UEFI mode into the CSM (BIOS) mode and restart then Windows 8 is not starting any more. As far as I find out an UEFI-based Windows 8...

Have just installed Windows 7. The sound very bad, with clicks and lots of distortion. Moving volume up/down causes crackles. Soundblaster X-Fi on Gigabyte GA-M56s-S3 motherboard with the correct drivers, Windows updates and latest BIOS. I have kept XP on another drive and swap the boot drive...

I set up a dual boot on a 500 GB SSD. Cloned Windows 7 from a smaller SSD then installed Windows 8 on a second partition. It takes a full 60 seconds to reach the dual boot screen. It then loads very quickly. Here is what I've done to try and correct the problem: 1. Refreshed windows 8 2. removed...

I have a boot mgr problem. When I boot up I get two choices one is a good working win7 and the other is a partial win 7 install that comes up as windows setup. What I need to do is remove the win set up choice and nothing I've tried seems to do that. What do I need to do to get rid of the win...

I have had no problems with my VM Vector Holiday edition 2010 until now. Only modifications were 1) addition of OSZ SSD (6 months ago), 2) upgrade of video card (2 months ago) [3) new logitech keyboard/mouse 2 months ago.] Crashes started today, first in Skyrim, and then during normal use...

This is another follow-up thread but I need to know how to use it (easily) I have tried to use the normal routine to recover my profile: 1. create a new profile 2. Copy every file from the old to the new with the exception of: ntuser.ini ntuser.dat ntuser.dat.log However this does not...

First post here and need some help. I have an image on bootable media (DVD). The image spans 3 dvds broken down into SWM files. I have been able to combine the SWM's with imagex into 1 large wim. In viewing the contents the WIM contains 2 images (image 1 & image 2). During the initial image...

Whenever the computer is shut down for more than a few hours (either after work or when I wake up), the computer loads as normal, except that when the Windows logo comes up and I wait for the lights to appear and converge into the Windows symbol, instead nothing happens and the computer just...

Free Cloud Storage - MediaFire Above link has all the requested info, including screenshots. Problem being completely random Blue Screens ruining my day on a new setup. I've had a mix of graphics errors whilst benchmarking (only whilst connected to the internet does it crash) and a range...

LinuxBSDos.com: One tool that has seen very little or no change over the past several releases in Ubuntu Desktop is the installation program. So it is somewhat surprising that some users are having problems dual-booting Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 using a tutorial written for Ubuntu 11.04. Link...

My old computer's motherboard died on me and so I replaced the whole computer with a new Dell 620. It comes with an Intel i3 processor, 4 gigs of memory, a 500 gig hard drive and Windows 7-64 bit. Not a bad computer for $399. I was able to plug in my old hard drive and retrive most of my old...

For some reason my cementmixer (brain) told me I could set up W8 in the following manner BUT it was a failure. I used this procedure over 30 years ago on large IBM mainframes. The following was my logic: On the C drive I only have 1 partition which is used for W7 files etc. I used diskmgmt...

how can i load win 8 to a partition other than c? i want to load it as a dual boot, and don't want to load it over my win 7. so why doesn't it give me this option? surely these guys didn't think everyone would load it on their c drive, did they?
