Good day and sorry if this was posted before but I'm searching for a solution for 3 days now and it's kind of nerve wrecking. So, I used to have a Gigabyte Mainboard (78LMT UBS3) which broke down eventually so I bought myself an ASRock 970 Pro3 R2.0. When I used the Gigabyte Mainboard I had 2...

A couple days ago I installed new drivers for my GTX 970 all was going well but I noticed a lot of system lag and constant freezing. I usually put my computer to sleep and then wake it up because the boot time is very slow, but once I would wake it up it would freeze for a while and then come...

Recently, my mum's ASUS X5DC laptop crashed under my useage after trying to install Office 365. I did the most common solution by doing a hard shut down and turning it back on. Next moment the computer wouldn't boot into Windows, it kept saying: Now this was quite strange. I didn't actually...

I've had this question for a long time but I wasn't sure if there would be a certain answer to it, so here it is; What would happen if System32 was deleted on Windows 7/10? Or more like, is it possible to delete system32 at all? I've heard many stories like; You PC will boot to a Black screen...

I have a laptop that has bitlocker enabled and all is working as intended, however, when windows installs updates and makes changes to the winload.exe file, it requires a recovery key for bitlocker to access the operating system. As the person using this PC in our domain will not have admin...

I've bought and repaired a 2nd hand laptop. Everything swell apart from trying to verify genuine windows. The sticker on the base is all legible but for one group of numbers/letters. Can anyone help me decipher? or have any clues? I know win 7 keys are cheap, but it's the principle...

Windows 7 This download site requires a legal key to use but allows people to recover their system by downloading an iso file.

My dad did the upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7. It looks interesting but I like my Windows 7 setup. I don't want to mess it up. So, can I do a clean install of Windows 10 as an upgrade but keep Windows 7 on the same computer in a dual boot setting? That way I can try Windows 10 without...

I had a catastrophic failure, just created a new Windows 7 Ultimate system with very little installed. I attached a disk drive from the previous system that has data on it (it wasn't damaged). All files are accessible but I CANNOT CHANGE THE ICONS ON ANY OF THE FOLDERS. I've done all of the...

Hello all: I just installed Windows 7 with SP 1 last week on my HP Pavilion desktop. I'm trying to have the screen go to black (or screensaver) after, let's say, 15 minutes. I set it and "save changes" but it never goes to black or screensaver. The screen just stays on. I've tried several...
