System properties for the new C: drive shows 489gb in use and over a 100gb not used. Windows 7 pro disk management shows the 489gb and nothing else to expand to. None of the free partition managers can extend the partition either. I went though...

Hi all, I realise this situation is of my own making, but here goes. I was having issues with my emachines laptop, (i.e. it kept shutting itself down) so I thought that a factory reset may resolve things.

So I bought new ssd for laptop and I "accidentally" (didn't know what I was doing) issued DISKPART CLEAN ALL so my HDD windows partitions except for the WINDOWS root were "clean", so they were not found!, I solved it with Windows built-in disk management utility (diskmgmt.msc) by reassigning the drive letter it had before, and now I have the system back, thanks be to God Almighty! (I don't care...

Friend of mine gave me his Dell tower to check out. I know it's a 64 bit system but I don't know the model (don't they put model numbers on the chassis anymore?). I just goes into a perpetual boot loop when you turn it on. Hitting the Repair Your Computer (instead of Start Windows Normally) option just takes me to a grayish screen. So I put in the Windows Home Prem. 64 disc getting the...

I was working on a laptop (with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit installed) that had some Windows/Update file corruption where no fixes I tried were working so I tried Microsoft's final recommendation, an "In-Place Upgrade" - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2255099/how-to-perform-an-in-place-upgrade-on-windows-vista--windows-7--window - but I apparently clicked the wrong option from the...

After the damage, couple years ago, I copied manually the files onto the hard drive what I could, and found some jpeg that could not be read etc.... so I substituted other files or something. But of course it took a while to figure out. It was not any important system files, files...

Hello, I'm dual booting Win 7 and Win 10, but have a problem with Win 7 where more often than not, it locks when resuming from Sleep and I have to reboot. Win 10 doesn't suffer from this. I prefer Win 7 over 10 to be honest so am trying to stick with it for now. However, I wanted to be able to use Bit Locker on Win 7, so upgraded to Win 7 Ultimate. I can't remember having this issue with...
