Solve : Win 7 vs Win 7 with SP1?

Answer» <html><body><p>Need to buy for a clean install on a new HD on my S-I-L's old HP Pavilion 753n rig. It came with Win 7 Home Edition. HD is failing and was too late to image. Macrium Reflect gave it the good ole college try but it would not work. I assume the 753n can handle SP1 but I do not know pros/cons or if it even matters? Thanks.  If you are doing a clean install on the same PC and you have the COA code no need to buy Win7 again...<br/>You can DLoad a version from Digital <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/river-238241" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RIVER">RIVER</a> and use your liscense key to activate...<br/>Completely legit to do so.P.S. the Editions have to match...As patio <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/said-629244" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SAID">SAID</a>, as long as you have a valid licence and key you can just download the media to install it - <a href="http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/14709-Windows-7-Digital-River-direct-links-Multiple-Languages-X86-amp-X64/page59?p=470600&amp;viewfull=1#post470600">http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/14709-Windows-7-Digital-River-direct-links-Multiple-Languages-X86-amp-X64/page59?p=470600&amp;viewfull=1#post470600</a><br/><br/>That said, I would never <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/consider-2017521" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONSIDER">CONSIDER</a> buying a new copy of Windows 7 for that machine, you would be looking at spending $100 on Windows after already spending $60 on a hard drive, this is simply not at all worth it for a machine that old.  There is a time when a PC is simply too old that you start wasting money trying to keep it going, For $160 you could easily find a second hand PC that would be much newer and more powerful.  I felt that $60 for the hard drive was already more than the machine was worth, throwing another $100 at it would be silly.<br/><br/>To answer your original question, like any Windows update you should have SP1 installed as it provides a lot of security and other patches to the OS.Thanks Cameronguy but my S-I-L wants this machine fixed up, no if's and's or but's.

She does not care too much about the money angle, she primarily wants to keep everything the same as long as she can. If $60 buys her one more year, she will be happy. Where could she get a much better machine for $60 or less?

I would not have a clue about buying a used machine...chances are pretty good I would end up in a worse position, lol.Look <a href="http://www.smartestcomputing.us.com/topic/38032-windows-7-iso-direct-download-links/">here</a> for direct downloads of Win 7.

How can I download Win 7 onto a new hard drive? I will not have a browser to connect to the internet. Do I have to download it to a different external storage device?

Solve : PC won't start properly, hard drive fried??

Answer» <html><body><p>I know my way around computers decently but this has me at a loss. Also, I'm new here so try not to judge too harshly!  <br/>When I start up my desktop It flashes the "Acer" start up screen but then goes straight to this black screen which I'll attach here. Tells me to ctrl+alt+del it and reboot and it's this never ending cycle of black screening me. My best guess is the hard drive is screwed up, I have a toddler that <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/loves-2160842" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOVES">LOVES</a> to bang on things so maybe he broke something... is this an easy and cheap fix? I had to sell my alienware laptop a few months back and now everything is dying out on me, life isn't fair &gt;.&lt;<br/>Acer<br/>Windows 7 home premium 64-bit<br/>AMD Athlon IIX2 255 Dual-core processor<br/> 4gb DDR3 memory <br/>1TB Hard drive<br/>NVIDIA GEFORCE 9200<br/>That's all the information I have on it seeing as I can't access anything really. <br/>Any ideas on what to do with it would be greatly appreciated. <br/><br/>[attachment deleted by admin to conserve space]That certainly does sound like the hard drive, best thing to do would be to find out who made the hard drive (there will be a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sticker-3077300" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about STICKER">STICKER</a> on the drive) and download/run their diagnostic software to test the hard drive.  For example, if the hard drive is made by "Seagate" then you need the "Seatools" diagnostics, if it is made by "Western Digital" you would need the "Western Digital Data Lifeguard Diagnostic".<br/><br/>A replacement hard drive is likely to cost anything from $30 upwards depending on the size of hard drive you want.<br/><br/>You would then just need to swap the hard drives and then reinstall Windows onto the new drive.<br/><br/>Alternatively you may want to get quotes from local PC repair places to do it for you - If you do go down this route, get multiple quotes from different places, don't just go with the first one you see.Thanks for the quick reply! I'll run the diagnostics, I'm pretty sad about all the things not backed up I'm <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/probably-1167177" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROBABLY">PROBABLY</a> going to lose, but live and learn.

Solve : Are the many programs that claim to repair my registery for real??

Answer» <html><body><p>Hello. I am running Vista on my home assembled desktop that has served me pretty well for over five years.<br/>I get several messages weekly from people wanting to sell me software supposed to repair my registery. I have seen some that scans my computer and then display a whole host of problems they have discovered. They most often ask me to register my system (or something similar).<br/><br/>I'm suspicious of these attemps but I can't say I really understand what's involved technically.<br/><br/>I would be interested in hearing opinions from those 'in the know'.<br/><br/>Thanks all for a great site.<br/><br/>Ivan CopasRegistry utilities CAUSE problems, they don't "cure" anything. There is nothing in the registry that needs to be repaired. The "best" registry utilities are benign and do absolutely nothing. The worst of them will <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/leave-1070813" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LEAVE">LEAVE</a> your system unusable.I was told, quite aggressively, by a young colleague who believes he knows everything about computers, that the Windows registry gets "fragmented" and this can slow down a PC. I ventured to disagree, which quite annoyed him, but I stood my ground. Part of his problem is he thinks nobody over 50 understands modern technology. When he went to lunch somebody else told me this guy has only ever owned Apple computers and phones and has never run a Windows computer of his own. (He also knows all about Android)<br/><br/>Like Allan said, the registry can look after itself. <br/> Quote from: copas on August 21, 2014, 10:24:49 AM</p><blockquote>I get several messages weekly from people wanting to sell me software supposed to repair my registery. I have seen some that scans my computer and then display a whole host of problems they have discovered. They most often ask me to register my system (or something similar).<br/></blockquote> You are right to be suspicious.  Those things you are seeing are just adverts on websites, it is impossible for them to actually check your computer, they are purely showing an <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/image-11684" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about IMAGE">IMAGE</a> in an attempt to scare/trick you into installing their software.  The same goes for any messages you see on websites saying things about problems with your computer.<br/><br/>While it is true that over time, old registry keys get left around by badly written programs.etc - They do not cause an issue.<br/>What these "registry cleaner" programs claim is that having these stray entries slows everything down.  If the registry was just one big long list that the computer had to search through then yes, having to check over these stray entries would slow it down.  However, the registry is not a big long list, it is a much fancier tree-like structure.  When Windows tries to access a portion of the registry it does not have to check through everything therefore even if there is a couple of stray keys that it does have to check, the speed difference would be so tiny that it is effectively nonexistant.<br/><br/>What I find funny is that these programs are basically saying "We know more than Microsoft does about Windows" - If registry errors were such an issue, surely Microsoft would have included software with Windows to deal with them, much like they do with Disk Defragmenter and Disk Cleanup.<br/><br/>In short, all registry cleaner software is junk, don't bother with it.Ditto...I also <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/agree-1732116" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AGREE">AGREE</a> that they are all junk. The last one I used was a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/symantec-657944" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SYMANTEC">SYMANTEC</a> Norton System Works 2003 and that software surprisingly was very troublesome when using system corrective registry tools.<br/><br/>I learned that when the registry gets hosed that its best to just backup data to an external hard drive and then rebuild the system clean. Even easier is if you create an system image from a clean build and then can simply restore your system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/back-389278" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BACK">BACK</a> to the clean build state. So I was using Norton Ghost 2003 for quite some time to burn DVD's of a clean build and whenever the system was showing signs that its time for a rebuild I was able to copy my important data to an external and then wipe the hard drive and install the clean image to the system and copy my data back and it felt like a new system again.<br/><br/>One other utility that I use to use a while back was called GoBack <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoBack">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoBack</a> , but as soon as Microsoft started adding the restore point feature to its operating systems, I soon found myself no longer using this software. This software I mainly used on test systems when testing out free software which sometimes had dirty uninstallers or were bundled with surprises, and it allowed me to restore my Windows 98 and Windows 2000 Pro systems back to clean state before the software or problem was added, and was nicer than having to perform a full rebuild.<br/><br/>These days if you want to refresh a system back to a clean healthy state your best options are a system restore point if enabled and available, installation of a clean image overtop of the old data on the hard drive, or a clean build after wiping the drive clean. * Just be sure to backup all data to an external before taking any actions so you dont lose data. Also be sure to install an up to date antivirus and perform a full scan of the external drive or media that the data was backed up on, so you do not reintroduce the problem back if its a viral problem.We had a clerk at one of our customer sites run some kind of Aggressive Registry Cleaner. It completely destroyed our software registry information and made all of our software break and not recognize what other components were installed.<br/><br/>Three guesses who got blamed!Many thanks to all who replied!<br/>Your comments, which were unamous confirmed my suspicions.<br/><br/>Thanks again,<br/>Ivan</body></html>

Solve : Unable to create /passwords in windows vista?

Answer» <html><body><p>HI everyone<br/><br/>I was given an HP Pavilion dv7-1135nr  64 bit Entertainment Notebook PC running Vista. This pc was used  by one person in a small business network. Although I was able to change the name of the computer, delete the user and create my own, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/administrator-368059" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ADMINISTRATOR">ADMINISTRATOR</a> user, windows will not allow me to make new passwords. This was a real problem when I had a blue screen yesterday (my next post!). When went to restart it in safe mode,a repair option came up on the screen when I selected it ,it asked for an administrator user name and password from a drop down list. I selected the old user but the password I was given did not work.  does anyone think because of the business windows was <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/set-11758" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SET">SET</a> up to prevent new passwords?is there any way I can change it?      Any used PC...no matter from where should get a wipe and a clean install...Thank you.... that makes sense..can I make and use a recovery disc  for that , or would that not be a clean install?I didn't get any discs with it. I'll  ask if if he still has them.If not, what do you think about installing windows 7 or 8? any obvious benefits over Vista? other then I like  7 on my tablet   your opinion would be very welcome..If i buy an os over the net can I  download it..to a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/flash-11677" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FLASH">FLASH</a>? any other suggestions?<br/>As you can probably tell I'm going to need a lot of  CH's help with this  <br/><br/>Thank you  Whenever anyone buys or <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sells-3018420" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SELLS">SELLS</a> a used <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/laptop-1066410" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LAPTOP">LAPTOP</a>, there should be all the materials present for the new owner to properly use and maintain the laptop, including the service tag number and user manual.<br/>The forum has a policy of not helping with password resets. The new owner may contact the manufacturer and provide the serial number and request help. But expect the company to charge a modest fee. Oh! ok,  I understand and agree!....The pc was given to me by my brother in law when he updated his business. I'll call him and ask for password and discs. I didn't bother because I've known him since he was 12 and something tells me he won't  have them. Also, the password he gave me did work to log onto windows.Sorry if I gave anyone the wrong impression.let you know how I make out.<br/>Thanks againYou can also check the manuf. site or the Owners Manual...<br/>Since it's a newer  laptop it likely has a hidden restore partition...</p></body></html>

Solve : Hard Drive says it's FULL. It clearly is NOT!?

It is stating that I only have 1 GB of free space, when there is only about 60 GB worth of software installed. I am constantly receiving "Low Disk Space" messages, when I should have TONS of free space left. I have done hours upon hours of research trying to figure out what is causing this problem, and cannot seem to find the solution anywhere.<br/><br/>Many people who have encountered similar problems have fixed it by disabling Windows Restore and deleting the restore points, etc. This is not the problem for me.

A search through the CH archives shows that others have had difficulty using the program. You mentioned. That program is not from Microsoft, nor is it recommended by Microsoft, nor is it needed for normal operation of your computer.<br/>With Vista f or any other Windows operating system having a backup plan is a requirement, not really an option. It is the user's responsibility to schedule and make backups on a regular basis. Windows does not do that for you, unless you ask it to.<br/>Yes, I know it sounds like I'm being sarcastic, but I really am trying to be as nice as possible. What you have done is your own responsibility. Having said that, here are the steps you can take to recover your system.<br/>You already should have a spare hard drive. If you don't, now is the time to acquire one. On a brand-new or clean used drives, do a complete installation of Windows with the appropriate drivers for your computer. Having done that, you'll be able to take the old drive and make it a slave on your computer. Then you'll be able to access it as the second drive and get  the important files you have on the original hard drive.<br/>Although this is a time-consuming process, it is predictable and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/relatively-621723" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RELATIVELY">RELATIVELY</a> easy and does not require great knowledge or understanding of how the system works. Basically, you just start over again and recover your documents from the old drive. Fairly simple.<br/>Otherwise, trying to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/figure-248565" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FIGURE">FIGURE</a> out what has been damaged in  the operating system is a slow trial and error process. Unless you already <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/gone-474922" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GONE">GONE</a> through this before. It is possible to recover using a repair disk, but it needs to be a repair disk that works according to the Microsoft rules. You create such a repair disk after you do a clean install of the operating system. All this has been documented here on this site and also in the Microsoft knowledge base.<br/>Any time a person gets a new computer with the Microsoft operating system on it, creation of a repair or recovery disk should be considered  s  needed task. The restore <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/partition-238933" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PARTITION">PARTITION</a> provided by the manufacturer does not let you preserve your data in the documents and settings file.

It stopped working, like it would start up and then just... go to a blank screen and the monitor would say nothing detected after having just shown the black screen with the window.<br/><br/>So I had a buddy who knows computers look at it and he saw a problem with the motherboard. So I replaced the motherboard but the problem persisted. So another site and several other friends said it would be the cpu, so I replaced the cpu today.

Then when the operating system crashed a couple of weeks ago, I had to do everything you do to re-install a new operating system because none of the repairs would work. <br/> <br/>2)Drivers up to date?<br/>In the device manager, it appears as if everything is ok. No yellow or red symbols. Windows update is set to automatically update all important updates. <br/><br/>3) When I have had some recent problems, I have been using Microsoft Office products... Excel, Word. But I frequently have at least Google Chrome open and a Word document/Excel spreadsheet. Okay - first of all in the future you need to tell us everything in your first post. All of this information is important in troubleshooting. <br/><br/>The error you are getting is most often caused by either new hardware or a problem with a driver. From where did you obtain the drivers (laptop drivers should always and only be obtained from the website of the laptop manufacturer). If you got them from <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/anywhere-2436614" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ANYWHERE">ANYWHERE</a> other than the Dell website, you need to replace them with the Dell drivers. The way to do that is to go to the Dell support website, enter your service tag number, and download and install the appropriate drivers for your system.<br/><br/>You said you reinstalled the OS. Since it was a new hd, you couldn't have done that from a recovery partition so I have to ask two questions: First, did you install the same OS as was originally installed when the system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/shipped-7285320" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SHIPPED">SHIPPED</a>? And <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/second-238031" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SECOND">SECOND</a>, did you use an original, retail OS disc or a disc provided by Dell or something else?<br/><br/>And last, since MS Office seems to be involved are you using an original, legitimate copy of Office?I have used all the legitimate ways of installing every thing. I have a Windows 7 disc and I download Microsoft Office through my university. I don't know how the drivers were installed when I put the new hard drive in, I just let the computer start running and updating things on its own. <br/><br/>I just ran a diagnostic on Dell's website and it says,<br/><br/> "Replace Hard Drive. Your hard drive is operating outside of normal parameters and should be replaced. Consider reviewing the No BOOT section in this Dell Knowledge Base article to identify the most common solutions for your Hard Drive. "<br/><br/>It is still under warranty because I just got it in May, so I can replace it again. But can you guess as to what has happened to this one since I don't seem to have a malware or virus problem according to those sorts of software. I believe that to be the reason why it crashed in April. I don't know what you mean about drivers installing on their own. Drivers don't install on their own. If you are using a Windows 7 dvd, after installation you need to go to the Dell website and download and install all appropriate drivers starting with the chipset driver. If you are using a regular Windows 7 dvd (and not an OEM install disc) didn't install the drivers, I have no idea how they were installed. Ok so it sounds like that is probably the source of the problems when I didn't download at least the chipset driver first. I went ahead and downloaded but its happened out of order. (I don't know how to uninstall drivers, so I can re-install them in order)<br/><br/> Do you think the damage has already been done on this hard drive or is there a way to fix it? <br/>Sorry, I always say chipset driver first because in the "old days" that's how it had to be done. These days it really doesn't make a difference. If you went to the Dell website and downloaded and installed the drivers from there you should be okay.<br/><br/>From your second post above it only shows 1 bsod. If you've only had one or two I wouldn't spend a lot of time worrying about it. However, if it continues to happen please publish a Speccy report:<br/><br/><br/>  <br/></p><ul><li>Go to <a href="https://www.piriform.com/speccy">Piriform's website</a>, and click the big <a href="https://www.piriform.com/speccy/download"></a> button.<br/></li><li>Next, click <a href="https://www.piriform.com/speccy/download/standard">Download from Piriform.com</a> (the FileHippo link requires an extra click).

Solve : laptop lag HP elitebook 8460p?

Answer» <html><body><p>Hi,<br/><br/>I am seeking help cause since a few <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/weeks-1451278" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WEEKS">WEEKS</a> my laptop HP eliteoobk 8460p is badly lagging (4 GB RAM, HD intel graphics 3000).  I tried everything to find the reason for the lag. I made a new win 7 installation, I got the latest drivers, I cleaned the fan, no malware/spyware/virus detected (malwarebytes/Avira), I made chkdsk, all that stuff, nothing helped. I am still laging, my poweroptions are on high performance, also my graphic card settings are on high performance. The lag is there no matter if its plugged in or on battery. It even lagging sometimes, when I write a letter in word.<br/><br/>a few weeks ago I could play any game without any lag and then suddenly it startet. The strange thing is, that I only lag in some games. Some games are running just fine without any lag or sound stuttering and some are unplayable. I dont think its overheating, since the cpu monitoring software shows no threads (I think).<br/><br/> I am wondering, if there is any software, that can detect what causes the lag reason ? I am pretty much a total noob in these things, any help would be much appreciated !<br/><br/>thank you in advance !Have you looked at system resources when this lag is happening such as what programs are running in windows task manager, and what the CPU cores show for usage.<br/><br/>Lag could be an update happening in the background or virus scan happening in backgrand etc. Usually if its any of these causes it would be more likely at the start of the use of the computer unless you happened to turn it on and it happened to have a scheduled time to run an update or scan.<br/><br/>Also, does the Hard Disk LED show lots of activity when this is happening or none?<br/><br/>If its lagging and the CPU is not busy, then i would suggest running memtest86 on the system to make sure that the memory is healthy. <a href="&lt;klux&gt;HTTP&lt;/klux&gt;://www.memtest86.com/">http://www.memtest86.com/</a>hello,<br/><br/>and ty for your answer. I started the laptop in safe mode and its not lagging at all in safe mode. I dont know about the games, since I cant start them in safe mode, but <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/google-12880" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GOOGLE">GOOGLE</a> and all the other things works perfectly. In normal mode the laptop lags, no matter how long its on, not only even after start up. I think the hard disk shows not so many activity, I am not sure, as I said, I am pretty much a newbie in these things. Would it help, if I post a screenshot here ? And if yes, which screenshot would help ?<br/><br/>thank you very much !A screen shot of task manager showing what processes are running and CPU % usage would help, from when you are running normal mode where the lag is happening. This way we can see what processes are running that may be slowing it down.<br/><br/>Process to do this:<br/><br/> CTRL + ALT + Delete<br/>Select Task Manager<br/>Select Processes Tab<br/>Select Show Processes from all users at bottom of window ( you will have to enter a password here for admin ir you are running as user )<br/>Click on CPU column ( to have the most % value on top, so processes that are busy show on top of list )<br/>Maximize the window to show as many as possible processes on list<br/>Then press print screen key<br/>And launch mspaint to paste screenshot to or use what ever application you like to create the screenshot.<br/>Then share here.<br/><br/>hi again  <br/><br/>so here is the screenshot <br/><br/><a href="http://f.666kb.com/i/csfecu485ry63zog7.png">http://f.666kb.com/i/csfecu485ry63zog7.png</a><br/><br/>I opend also a game, so that you can see the cpu usage, when i am in the game.<br/><br/>thank you !Looks like the game is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/dark-343691" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DARK">DARK</a> Realm ... is that game one of the ones that lags on you? Also which other games lag, and which ones do not lag so i can look for something in common between them?<br/><br/>Linked the game here in case others want to check it out... looks like a fun game, and doesnt require a powerful computer to play it.<br/><br/><a href="http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/27735/dark-realm-queen-of-flames-collectors-edition/index.html">http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/27735/dark-realm-queen-of-flames-collectors-edition/index.html</a><br/><br/>Looking through the list, nothing pops out at me as being a problem. 87% system idle shows that nothing is bogging down your CPU to cause the game to lag according to screenshot info of the task manager.<br/><br/><br/>thank you Dave for looking into it !<br/><br/>so all games from Mad Head games like this one &gt;&gt; <a href="http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/27735/dark-realm-queen-of-flames-collectors-edition/index.html">http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/27735/dark-realm-queen-of-flames-collectors-edition/index.html</a><br/>i can play without any lag.<br/><br/>all games from (for example) ERS games like this one &gt;&gt; <a href="http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/14467/dark-tales-eap-premature-burial-collectors/index.html">http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/14467/dark-tales-eap-premature-burial-collectors/index.html</a><br/>i cant play, cause its constantly lagging. (in 10 times when I try to play the game, it does not lag maybe 1 time, so very little <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/often-585098" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OFTEN">OFTEN</a> I can play it for short time without lag).<br/><br/>the graphics are in both games very good (for a small hidden object game). Also I tried to play league of legends online, i could play without any lag, world of tanks is not possible, I dont know if that information would be useful. A few weeks ago I could play everything without any problems. I dont know if the Hard Drive is maybe defect, in my non pro humble opinion I would say no, since it would also not work in other games that dont lag.<br/><br/>thank you !<br/><br/></p></body></html>

Solve : SSD Problem??

Answer» <html><body><p>I have recently <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/installed-499454" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTALLED">INSTALLED</a> a SSD 240gb. First I 'cloned' c drive with the included s/ware. This did not work out well as the PC booted to the old HDD. I removed the old drive and did a clean install on the SSD and transferred files back from the old HDD, then removed it. Now at boot, Windows Boot Manager page comes up with a choice of two OS both Win 7. There is physically only one drive in the PC. There is no sign of a Windows.old on the system. I have cleared <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/cmos-409107" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CMOS">CMOS</a> etc. I would like for it to boot straight <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/away-386546" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AWAY">AWAY</a> as that is why I bought an SSD!  Any ideas please. Quote from: alexma on September 29, 2014, 09:56:43 AM</p><blockquote>I removed the old drive and did a clean install on the SSD and transferred files back from the old HDD</blockquote> <br/>What files did you transfer?<br/><a href="https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/2288-windows-boot-manager-delete-listed-operating-system.html"><em><strong>See Here...</strong></em></a>Also to add to this... with both SSD and HDD originally connected in the clone attempt, Windows installation may have detected the other Windows installation on the other drive and installed to the SSD as a dual OS installation which gives you a choice at boot for one or the other. Then removing the HDD and having the SSD remaining the boot manager isnt smart enough to test for this HDD and so it boots off of the SSD and gives option for the HDD which is no longer connected. If this is the case then its a simple fix as shared in Patio's link.<br/><br/>However if you had the cloned copy of Windows onto the SSD and then decided that that wasnt working out so well and decided to then perform a clean installation, Windows on installation searches drives for Windows installations. It is possible to breeze past an important option to not have the other Windows installation remain, and so you can have 2 installations of Windows on the same drive, one that is functional and the other that is not, or you can have 2 installations of the same OS both functional. The problem here is that each installation takes up drive <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/space-239477" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SPACE">SPACE</a> and so if this is what happened then you will have to determine which Windows install is the one that you do not want and manually delete it to get say 20GB back which is otherwise wasted with the initial install that you really want gone from the drive, but otherwise remained through the process of the 2nd installation.First of all Thank you Patio, your solution did the trick. Secondly, DaveLembke, how would I know if there are two OS's on the drive simultaneously running or otherwise? Quote<blockquote>DaveLembke, how would I know if there are two OS's on the drive simultaneously running or otherwise?</blockquote> <br/>They wouldnt be running simultaneously, only 1 runs at a time unless you create and use virtual machines with VMware etc. If the install wasnt 100% clean in which the SSD was not completely formatted before the OS was installed to it, it could be possible for Windows to detect a prior copy of Windows already installed to that drive, and for Windows to install a fresh copy alongside the old install.<br/><br/><br/>Its more common when upgrading Windows that it creates a Windows.Old folder. Pretty much if you look at C: and dont see any duplicate folders with the Windows name, then your good, but if you found one that is like Windows.Old, then its wasted space and could be removed. More info on this at the link below.<br/><br/><a href="http://www.thewindowsclub.com/delete-remove-windows-old-folder">http://www.thewindowsclub.com/delete-remove-windows-old-folder</a></body></html>

Solve : Toshiba (L355D-S7901) laptop all black screen, turns on, though.?

Answer» <html><body><p>Oookay, so I've creeped through google and here a bit, but didn't see anyone else having quite my problem I guess... and all  the things i've tried haven't worked.  <br/><br/>I've got a Toshiba Satellite L355D-S7901 laptop. I've had it for like 5-6 years, no longer under warranty, it's had quite a bit of problems but I've always been able to fix it through google search. (Or just hand it over for warranty work when I had it lol)<br/>It's running windows vista home premium.<br/><br/>It was totally fine for many months, then yesterday every time I closed it and opened it up again, the time/date would turn to January 1 2008, 12:00 AM. And chrome wouldn't let me go to a few sites saying it wasn't secure or whatever till I changed the date/time. But after I changed the time it was totally fine. Then, I figured i'd reset it cause it was getting annoying and I thought it'd fix it (I wish I just kept changing the time lol) <br/>When I reset it, the screen stayed black, but the battery/AC light was on and the fan was goin. That's still all it does. And it gets hot fast, but it sometimes shuts itself off when its not very hot. So i'm not sure it overheats when it gets real hot, since it does the exact same when it's not. <br/>The screen is just completely black, never shows it's starting to boot up, no cursor, nothin. <br/><br/>I've tried restarting it through the power button quite a bit, I've taken out the charger/battery and draining the static charge (is that what it's called?) for 30-60 seconds and reconnecting the cord... Done that like 10 times maybe... Took out the RAM stick(s) and put them back in... Tried F8, F10,FU  --- CTRL ALT DEL.. CTRL SHIFT ESC....  <br/><br/><br/>I DUNNO. If I have to get new RAM sticks, a motherboard, or hard drive, that's alright, I guess. <br/>halp plz thxReplace the CMOS battery...part #CR2032...available anywhere. Quote</p><blockquote>Replace the CMOS battery...part #CR2032...available anywhere.</blockquote> <br/>This is actually a laptop, so it would actually be a small battery pack instead of a 2032 usually, although I have seen 2032's heatshrink wrapped with a plug on a short length of wire before on some older Dells so its not completely impossible for it to not be a 2032, but 99% chance its not a 2032 battery in the laptop, and if it is a 2032 that is in a shrink wrap with a small cable coming out of it, its best to buy the exact replacement than to boil the battery trying to solder the 2 wires to + and - on top and bottom side. If I had to install a 2032 or convert to a 2032, I think I would get a 2032 button/coin cell socket off of an old motherboard or buy one new and solder to the socket the correct polarity and then either shrink wrap, hot glue, or electrical tape to seal it up so that it couldnt short against anything inside the laptop as well as add 2 sided tape to affix it from being loose inside. <br/><br/>All you need really is 3V ... in total desperation ( with a desktop computer) a while back ( 15 years ago ) I used 2 x AA batteries with a AA Battery Cradle from Radio Shack for a 486 computer when the Lithium that was soldered directly to the motherboard died. cut the 2 legs off the leaking lithium then bought for $1.95 at Radio Shack a 2 x AA black plastic battery cradle, then just wire up + to + and - to - and add 2 x AA batteries for 1.5V x 2 = 3V and i used the sticky velcro that i had available to stick it to the side of the power supply.<br/><br/><strong>But I agree that the CMOS battery is bad if its losing its date/time.</strong>Ahh, thanks y'all.<br/>Err, I'm not too sure what kinda battery this is exactly?<br/>I don't see ANY numbers, letters, anything. (I guess I shoulda got out my good camera, but there's not much to it anyway.)<br/><br/><br/>I'm guessing this is what I need?<br/><a href="https://us.ebid.net/for-sale/sanyo-ml1220-tj1-rechargeable-coin-cell-w-2-pin-vertical-mount-96862922.htm">http://us.ebid.net/for-sale/sanyo-ml1220-tj1-rechargeable-coin-cell-w-2-pin-vertical-mount-96862922.htm</a><br/>And...

Unfortunately, mine isn't that easy to get to the battery..  lol<br/><br/>I know how to get to it though.. I just did, and took a (bad) picture<br/><br/>*censored*. It's totally replaceable.

Instead, use an alternative method of attachment.  Mechanical clip, spot weld or superconductive adhesive are alternatives to solider. I would suggest liquid solder used very carefully.<br/><br/>You have never seen a pack assembled by a cell manufacturer or any other pack manufacturer where <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/connections-929522" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONNECTIONS">CONNECTIONS</a> are soldered directly to a cell. There is a reason.<br/><br/> Quote<blockquote>General Electric Nickel Cadmium Battery Application Manual [Library of<br/>Congress Cat Card No 86-80684 Section 6.5.3 9 (page 6-20) "Never solder<br/>directly to the nickel-cadmium cells, only to solder tabs or wire leads.<br/>A hot soldering iron placed directly on the cell is likely to cause seal<br/>ring and vent seal damage as well as damage to the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/separator-1201518" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SEPARATOR">SEPARATOR</a> systems."<br/></blockquote> Yeah, I know you can't solder batteries.... but the little tab things? To connect to the board? For a second?<br/><br/>I'd definitely like to use something more like liquid solder, or something. <br/>If anybody thinks they know how to solder to a small battery, here is the tesat.<br/>Hold a copper penny between the thumb and index of the left had. With your right hand and your teeth use a small solder iron to tack a wire to the penny using low temperature solder.  It has lead, might be hard to find.<br/>If you have to drop the penny after twenty seconds.. <em>you lose!</em>  Never exactly heard it described that way... My guess is that Geek has tried this test  <br/><br/>I have been tested as well with other stuff working in electronics shops etc where people show off their skills and those who have a high tolerance for pain or nerve damage might succeed with the soldering of the penny and say ... see i did it! LOL  <br/><br/>The one test I would never do that some did to show off in electronics manufacturing was wetting your finger and dipping it in and out of <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/molten-548661" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MOLTEN">MOLTEN</a> lead in the solder pot quickly which was used for tinning thru hole components for mil-spec builds where not just specific parts had to be used, but they also had to be retinned before installation in PCB's. A wet finger protected you from getting burned if you did it fast enough as the lead wouldnt stick to your skin and you would have a poof of steam, as well as you wouldnt be burned or blistered. ((( Do not try this at home )))  <br/><br/>That was a stupid test. The best test was a series of resistors all soldered in a box ( cube ) form and telling the new ET to solve the resistance from corner to corner of the resistor cube which was a 3D cube of resistors soldered together without cheating with a multimeter. Do the math for all resistors parallel and in series and give your answer, where those in parallel drop the resistance and those in series add the ohms. Nothing like making the green horn ET break a sweat to show he has the skills freshly hired out of college or off the street to solve a ohms law problem with all the resistors part of the equation. those who were successful didnt waste their time staring at the cube and wrote down what the cube would be in <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2d-242626" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2D">2D</a> as a circuit and then solved that on paper!..LOLBy the way this battery if its the same one you have in your laptop: <a href="https://us.ebid.net/for-sale/sanyo-ml1220-tj1-rechargeable-coin-cell-w-2-pin-vertical-mount-96862922.htm">http://us.ebid.net/for-sale/sanyo-ml1220-tj1-rechargeable-coin-cell-w-2-pin-vertical-mount-96862922.htm</a><br/><br/>It should be pretty easy to solder in. However I'd take a pair of dikes and cut the legs off the old battery. then solder the new battery to the old legs in respect to the proper polarity!!! This cutting of the legs of the component will protect you from overheating the board and damaging any internal traces that are connected to the 3VDC battery. * Just be sure the tip of the dike doesnt dig into the board surface and you are only cutting the old battery legs off to be able to apply the new battery in place of it.<br/><br/>*** If you were really skilled at soldering for removing and replacing components with solder sucker etc, i'd go the route of a complete removal, but many people out there struggle to remove parts without damaging the board that they are in. Common problem is overheating the barrel and burning the board as well as ripping the barrel out of the board that the leg is stuffed into, or breaking a via and you end up with an open circuit. More info here: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_%28electronics%29">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_%28electronics%29</a>Coool. Ah, makes sense. Thanks :3<br/>I think it's the same... It's the closest thing I've seen to mine anywhere. Someone recommended it for my laptops model on some other page. <br/><br/>I'm not skilled. I've maybe soldered something once awhileee ago. But, i'm not a idiot (I like to think) + my dad knows more about this, and was an electrician for a bit so.... I should get enough help all around to do it. <br/><br/>Is it a better idea to get a lower heat iron? (or lower Watt)Buy one with solder tabs.<br/><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Super-Nintendo-Genesis-Master-System-Advance/dp/B00ES28AT4/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hi_1?ie=UTF8&amp;refRID=1WWMA5FMWWVMC9HDH6M4">CR2032 Lithium Battery with Solder Tabs</a><br/>At Amazon it sells for under $4 plus shipping .<br/><br/>Dear OP, please give up on the idea of using a solder iron. Yes, some of us hobbyists do it all the time, even though we know better. It is like a challenge. Like shaving with a hunting knife. A macho thing.so... I'm supposed to get a battery with solder tabs, but not solder it? How's it supposed to attach, then? (and that battery wouldn't work, the two tabs need to be next to each other. I'm quite sure I already posted a link to a battery with solder tabs, in the right place, that will work though)<br/><br/>Meh, now i'm getting pretty determined. I'll most likely obviously practice on something not important first to figure it out more, though.<br/></body></html>

Solve : Help with Elgato Game Capture?

Answer» <html><body><p>Hi there,<br/><br/>My son has an Elgato game capture card but we do not have a laptop that <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/works-17618" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WORKS">WORKS</a> with it. The required system requirements are:<br/><br/>Windows 7, Windows 8 or later<br/>• 2.0 Ghz (or higher) dual core CPU, or 2.0 Ghz (or higher) multi-core i3, i5 or i7 CPU<br/>• <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sound-250993" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SOUND">SOUND</a> card<br/>• 4GB Total Installed RAM (or higher)<br/>• Built-in USB 2.0 port<br/><br/>Can anyone suggest a reasonably priced laptop that meets these requirements?<br/><br/>Many thanks<br/><br/>FenboyinspainAccording to online reviews I have seen one person state that they had this running on a Pentium D capturing 59.96 frames per second. So processing power for this capture <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/device-11244" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DEVICE">DEVICE</a> doesnt have to be overly powerful. I think the biggest concern will be what games are played on the laptop to make sure that the CPU and most importantly the GPU is rated high enough to play the games. Pretty much any new dual-core system <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/2ghz-300372" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 2GHZ">2GHZ</a> or faster with HDMI connection would work best with this device. The biggest concern is the games to be played to make sure you have a laptop that can play those games as well as potential of some future games that may demand more than the bare minimum of a current game so that your not stuck with a laptop that lasts 2 years and then having to buy a new one because the GPU is too weak.<br/><br/>When it comes to gaming I always suggest a desktop computer as for generally to support a longer lifespan of gaming its usually just a matter of upgrading a video card and keeping with the rest of the original computer. Desktop computers for gaming last on average 4 years before there is a real need to upgrade CPU or replace the system, and depending on the complexity of the game, a game such as World of Warcraft can still run on a 10 year old desktop if needed, although video settings may need to be set to below normal to have 30-40 frames per second. If playing <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/older-1130466" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OLDER">OLDER</a> games, then just about any newer laptop or desktop should work, however before buying one run by us the make and model and what games are to be played on it and we can state if its a good match or offer a similar better model etc.Thanks Dave, great info.<br/><br/>As it happens, he plays the games on XBox and only uses the Elgato to 'capture' the info which he then puts on to You Tube.oh ok... what type of budget do you have and is this laptop going to be used for any gaming or just web surfing and checking e-mail?</p></body></html>

Solve : Bitlocker nightmare?

Answer» <html><body><p>If I am posting in the wrong forum feel free to move me.<br/>I have a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/external-981194" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EXTERNAL">EXTERNAL</a> hard drive that we use to back up files in my home office. The lady who works for me then takes it home just in case, you know tornado, fire, theft, etc. I decided to encrypt the files in case she lost the hard drive. Opps.<br/><br/>I started the windows 7 oem bitlocker. First off I dont think I put in the proper password. However I did save the key on a usb drive. The encryption was going to take hours, so I turned off the screen saver and went to bed. 2nd opps.<br/><br/>When I came back the next morning the program was not <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/running-1192206" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RUNNING">RUNNING</a>.

Type bcdedit /debug on to enable kernel debugging for the operating system drive.<br/>The drive I need to decrypt is a removable drive. Does the command bcdedit need to be different to reflect using the E: drive?Well I must be doing something wrong.

Bitlocker will lock the computer up and I had to go to taskmanager to stop the program. I give up microsoft wins. I took the drive apart and smashed it to bits so no one can get my info.  <br/>I do not recommend bitlocker as if you have any kind of problem you will lose your data. I have never recommended it...</p></body></html>
