I only ask this because there is conflicting opinions on the Internet about whether...

For those (like myself) who have stuck rigidly with Windows 7 you will probably be aware that if you have ever made a Windows CD repair disk (Windows RE) or on a flash drive, and you run a UEFI BIOS computer (not in CSM mode) you will get a "non compatible" error when you try to boot from it. Despite wading through this forum and Microsoft forums, no-one seems to have ever come up with a...

Last week, my PC suffered a corrupted driver, lost LAN connectivity, blah, blah, blah. The result was a total boat anchor of a PC (at least as far as getting on the Internet is concerned). I have a new copy of W7 on the way. My intention is to reload the OS, so that the PC performs well again, while retaining the software that's currently on it. Is that doable, or do I have to unload it all...
