I do weekly backups on my Windows 10 systems. I start with a Full System Backup (See below) & then the next three weeks I do Incremental backups & then start over. ______________________________________________________________________ |100 | 16 | 600 GB C...

I'm running Windows 10 Pro 64 on a system that has an Intel Core i5 with 32GB RAM. It has been running fine for several years. That came to an end the other day, when Windows Auto update downloaded & installed one, too many updates & requested I reboot. I shut all the apps down etc & rebooted...

OK. One last thing. Ummmm. How do I close this or mark it as Resolved or whatever? Sorry. It's been a while & I have forgotten...:oops:

Well that was fun. I spent WAY too much time on repairing this before I finally remembered to look & see if I had a backup. I looked. I had one & I wiped the drive with the windows installation boot drive that I have first, then removed all the other drives except the boot drive M2 & booted with...

I don't know why things like my tooth always seem to happen on Fridays. My dentist only works Monday through Thursday so I'm out of luck until Monday. Just like you said. My wife did contact him & asked him to phone in some Antibiotics. He did, she went & picked them up & although my jaw is...

I went as far as I can go in the windows installation & still be able to get out. It looks like the drive partitions are still there, but it looks like I lost majority of the files on them. The partitions are the same size, but they have fewer files than I remember. Right after I posted this...

PLEASE HELP! My Windows 10 system no longer boots because it can't find my M.2 drive which is the boot drive. I can see the drive in the BIOS/UEFI. It even shows up as one of the boot options, I obviously have the NVM Option Enabled. I tried taking the M2 drive out & restarted my PC, then shut...

Sorry it took such a long time to reply. As always happens when I come to this site, even though I know I'm going to learn a lot of stuff, I learn much more than I thought I would. Not just a lot of stuff, but a lot of extremely useful & narrowly targeted info to the questions I asked. Thank...

Does anyone out there know anywhere or anyone who manufactures or sells new motherboards that have PCI slots (2 or more would be best, but even 1 PCI slot would be OK), a modern BIOS/UEFI, a modern CPU socket type ( either Intel or AMD chipsets) & has at least 4 RAM slots with addressing for at...

When the system booted it make one beep, just like it is supposed to. As I stated in the original post, I have swapped out RAM with other working systems & RAM was not the problem. I tried 2 other PSU before the one that's in there now. The PSU was not the problem. After trying everything I...

No. Not specifically. It has no discrete graphics card in it currently. It's using the GPU in motherboard, which is another reason I've been thinking the problem is the motherboard. I'm also not familiar with a program I can use or any way that I can test the GPU specifically, except to put a...

My Win7 Ultimate 64-bit will run fine for "a while" (sometimes a few days, sometimes a few weeks) & then it just goes dark. The PSU continues to run (the fans are spinning etc) & it's on a KVM & the little monitor icon shows that it's still connected, as opposed to when I shut off the PSU or...

Thank you. I'll give this a go & see what happens... Well, when I paid a little more attention to the software you mentioned, I realize that's the one I'm using. I tried a bunch of times with that one & couldn't do it. I downloaded & installed AOMEI Partition Assistant (Free version) & it worked...

I have a bigger HDD with 2 partitions. A small partition that holds the OS & a bigger one that I use for data. How can I copy just the OS partition to another HDD & make it bootable. I've tried copying a partition & the copy part works. It's just won't boot up.
