Ok so i bought a new CPU off of amazon the other day it was a Athlon II X4 630 and I got it in the mail and installed it today. Well I decided to try and put my other stick of ram(2x4gb) in to see if it would detect as dual channel with this CPU and to my surprise it did. I tried booting into windows and it just kept restarting. One time it gave me a blue screen saying Machine Check Exception. After that one it would not give me any other blue screens just kept restarting as soon as it hit the login screen for Windows 7. Then I took the other stick back out and it logged in for a few sec and started to load windows and such then it restarted with a bluescreen giving me this error code 0x000000124.
I upgraded my last OS(Win Vista Ultimate) to Win 7 Ultimate.
the BOSD contains following information:
inspect.sys DRIVER_UNLOADED_WITHOUT_CANCELLING_PENDING_OPERATIONS ... ... . . . Technical information: ***stop:0x000000CE(0x873AD79C,0x00000000,0x873AD79C,0x00000000) inspect.sys . . . I start it up in safe mode,and every thing which is appears after pressing F8,but this problem still LIVES!!!
About a week ago I updated my computer to Windows 7 Ultimate. Since then, 90% of the time, when I boot up the computer a black screen appears on my screen and no desktop shows up. I can't do anything like get to to a task manager but the computer works fine in safe mode. Strangely, if I leave the computer for a couple of hours the black screen disappears and everything works perfectly.
so yesterday I decided to upgrade my computer with a new motherboard/cpu.But I wanted to keep the old hard drive since I have all my files there, and everything was going smoothly until I actually tried to boot it.When I boot Windows 7 it gives me this bluescreen error: Code: STOP 0x0000007B (0xFFFFF880009A9928, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000) I have tried to reinstall windows on another clean hard drive, but doesn't want to boot that either.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 full retail The hardware is from 2010 or so.The age of the os installation is 2011.
I started the upgrade and left the computer installing...
When I came back I saw a BSOD (0x0000007b (0x80786b68), 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).
I restarted and saw 2 options (Windows SETUP and Windows 7).
Computer gone to Windows Setup again and showed BSOD again. So I restarted and got Windows 7 7000 again... (no changes made). I received a message saying that the upgrade couldn't be made and my original version was restored or something else...
I have no idea about the reason of the BSOD. Never had problems with 7000.
i've just changed motherboard card, memory and cpu to the new one:gigabyte p67a-d3-b3, intel core i3 2120, patriot ddr3 2x4096mb 1600mhz cl8.0 viper xtreme divison 2 llk.i changed in bios memory to 1600mhz 8-9-8-24 1.5 v (instead of 1.65v (i couldnt find option to get it to 1.65v in bios, when i changed to 1.6v system didnt run). after 1 day i got bsod. but i changed back memory to the orginal state and after about 1 hour system just got shocked. bsod didn't show up, but computer was frozen and non stop i could hear beep sound.i didn't uninstall drivers from old motherboard (don't know how). i installed new drivers for new motherboard / cpu. i didn't install again graphic card drivers (i was told i don't need to). i didn't make format either (i'd like to avoid that as much as i can).in attachment everything you want: minidump / rammon / cpu-z / and seven forums tool logs.
edit:i'd like to add that each time computer got frozen was while i was watching something on Internet?
I was wondering can I upgrade from windows 7 32bit to windows 7 64bit using a 64bit upgrade edition? I got told on another forum it works aslong as you input the product key AFTER the installation not during?
I am considering going to 64 bit for gaming as I believe it would be better on the games. I now have Windows 7 Pro 32 bit running. The way I understand it you need to purchase a brand new 64 bit OS. So what do I do with my 32 bit OS just trash it

I have just bought 4 gig of ram to help speed up my computer but when I put it in, it says that only 2.93 gig usable. Is there a way to use this other gig that i have.
I'm upgrading a computer's ram from 512mb to 4 gb. The current OS is Windows Xp Home and switching it to Windows 7. In order for the computer to see 4 gb of Ram would I have to use a 64 bit Windows 7 regardless of hardware?
I have Hitman: Absolution and Microsoft Office 2010, that both need Windows 7. Luckily, I have an official Windows 7 install disc for both 32 and 64. Now, backing up all my qaqa on 4.7 GB dvd discs would be a hassle, and that would be what I'm looking at because there is only one hard drive. My question: What are the downsides to just installing Windows 7 64 bit over Windows XP 64 bit, rather than backup files -> reformat -> clean install?
I recently got a new computer, built it from the ground up for gaming. My school is part of MSDNAA fun time so I was able to get a free version of Windows 7 64bit service pack 1. I downloaded the files and it was an .iso file.
The first try, I ended up burning the .iso file its self to a disk with out mounting it then downloading the files onto the disk that way. So that didn't work.
The next thing I tried was downloading the actual files needed to install the OS onto a flash drive. The reason that didn't work was because I didn't format the flash drive correctly before I downloaded the files onto it. I then tried to format the flash drive but now I can't even open it or do anything else with it.
I ended up asking a friend who had a boot disk for Windows 7. The only problem is that he didn't know if it was 32 bit or 64. This disk actually worked... the only problem is that it's 32 bit.
I ended up getting another disk and downloaded the, what I believe, right files onto it. Popped it into my new computer to hopefully install the 64 bit version of the OS and over right the 32 bit version, or have it reformat my hard drive then install the OS. So far it isn't working.
Is there any advice I could get from you guys. I was thinking about wiping my hard drive and starting from scratch, hoping that the 64 bit disk I burned would work. So far, I haven't been able to actually wipe it, so I'm at a bit of a cross roads.
I am currently running Windows 7 Home Premium on a basic HD. I recently purchased a new SSD and a full installation of Windows Ultimate.
I would like to install Windows Ultimate to the SSD and use my old HD as a secondary storage device. Most importantly, I do not want to lose any of my documents or personal files currently stored on the old HD.
I'm looking for advice or recommendations on the best approach here. Should I do a full Win7 Ultimate install to the SSD and leave Win7 Home Premium on the secondary drive? Or, is there a better way to migrate files from the secondary drive to the new SSD and then format the old HD?
My machine (a very powerful 64bit one) wouldnt let me update from XP Professional to Windows 7 64 bit, but would allow me to update (clean install) to 32 bit. Now 32 is in can I upgrade to 64?
I was looking up previous topics regarding upgrading to Windows 7 and was not really finding any definitive answers. I have been perfectly happy and content with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and have been flirting with the idea of upgrading to Windows 7What brought me to this was I want to install and play Battlefield 3 which only runs on Windows 7. I have a nice system even by today's standards, so I ran the Microsoft's upgrade to Windows 7 app checker. It told me that most programs would be fine but there are some like K-lite's Codec Pack and such that it is unclear if there is compatability. Now I am not going to backup data, clean install Windows 7, and reinstall all programs and apps just to play one game.
My pc is old.500gb space, 2gb ram.Tired of xp, I want to upgrade to win7 ultimate. I have original cd.One of the reasons im doing this is becoz, I'm a gamer and lot of new games are not supporting win xp anymore.
1. How to do it?
2. I have 180gb worth data on pc, is it possible to recover/keep data as it is without transferring it somewhere else (I have 4 drives)
3. can i have xp on 1 drive and win7 on other?
4. I dont know which version I have, I think its 32bit. My xp is also 32bit , does it matter?
5. I have all installation cd's, everything. what else do i need?
6. How to connect to internet in win7. I have win7 on my laptop and I dunno how to.
7. my Dvd drive is not working properly , my sis has win 7 in usb , can win 7 be installed from usb?
I am new to this forum, I was a Desktop/Network engineer (before Windows 7 came out).I would like to hear any tips or tricks on upgrading from 32 to 64. I know you have to completely reformat ETc. To give you a slight heads up my HDD is already partitioned and its a new notebook 8MB fitted Ramm (but obviously only 2 MB being utilized (careful choice of words there!) I am currently checking first my hardware drivers to make sure there compatible
I have a winfast k8m890m2ma-rs2h motherboard and i want to upgrade my ram to 4 gig.
I dont know if i am able to though, because the infomation on the box and in the manuel doesnt tell me how much ram the motherboard can support. It is an am2 socket board but no where does it say the amount of ram it supports.
I was woundering if anyone has this board and/or knows how much ram this motherboard can support?
I am considering upgrading my laptop's RAM from 4 GB DDR3 to 8 GB DDR3. Currently my laptop contains 2 strips of the following memory:
Quote: 2GB 2Rx8 PC3-8500S-07-10 [x2] Thought I'd ask you guys for help, as I do not know where to look for Samsung RAM, or any other 100% compatible RAM for my laptop. Well, actually I know where to look but how do I figure out which suits my laptop the best? I prefer to have the same brand of RAM this laptop came with, which is Samsung (my laptop is an Acer Aspire 8735G).
Also is it better to have 2 strips of 4 GB or would it be a better idea for me to buy 1 strip of 8 GB? what type of motherboard this laptop's got, I can't seem to find it anywhere... I've used CPU-Z, checked my laptop's manual and service guide but nothing to find there.
I'm looking to upgrade my CPU and Motherboard from what I currently have.I recently purchased a GeForce GTX 680 but I am seeing minimal improvement from my previous GeForce GTX 480, and have come to the conclusion its my CPU holding me back.
Current specs - OS - Windows 7 Home CPU - Intel i7 930 @ 2.80GHz Motherboard - Gigabyte X58A-UD5
I have been told in the past I cannot replace one and not the other due to my CPU/Motherboard being 1366 pin which is no longer in make.
I am trying to upgrade from vista ultimate to 7 ultimate, I don't want to format, the only issue I am having upon upgrading is that there is not enough disc space on my drive to continue the upgrade.
Although we have tutorials on this subject, I was impressed by this presentation of this common scenarioYou have to opportunity to print the entire tutorial and also to view the video.I can recommend this MS tutorial (and I don't always do that).Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
i Upgraded from win xp 32bit to Win 7 ultimate 32bit.i am upgrading my computers MoBo, Case, CPU, and CPU cooler.with all the new hardware. will i have to reformat? and if so. how do i go about doing it? Will i have to reinstall windows xp, than upgrade to windows 7. or can i just put in the win 7 cd and do it from there since its an upgrade version and not full version?
I currently have a licensed Windows 7 x86 version installed on a desktop. I purchased a new SSD that I plan to use for the OS, Office, and some productivity applications. Games and media will remain on my existing 500GB hard drive. The hard drive currently holds my 32-bit installation of Windows 7. I want to install 64-bit Windows 7 on my new SSD and keep the data on my HDD.
Should I unplug my HDD when I install 64-bit Windows 7? If I plug in the HDD after installation will there be a conflict as to which OS should boot? I don't want to dual-boot or go back to x86, so I don't care about the windows installation on the HDD, just the data.
Should I keep my HDD plugged in with the new SSD and then install Windows 7 x64 to the SSD? Will that keep all of my HDD data intact?
Already installed Windows 7 Professional 32 bit via valid MSDN account. I now want to go to 64 bit as 32 bit version cannot address all of installed 6gb RAM.
My question is did my original MSDN download include both 32 bit and 64 bit versions and therefore I can 'reinstall' from that iso or do I have to download specific 64 bit version and use the same key ?
I am trying to upgrade to Windows 7 because there are various programs that I would like to use but I am unable to because I am running on a 32 bit operating system, and quite frankly, the OS is outdated and it is time for an upgrade anyway.But I can't afford to buy the operating system at the moment so I downloaded an ISO file and I am trying to create a bootable USB, but the Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool won't work, it copies all of the files to the drive but it can't make it bootable because bootsect.exe is not a valid Windows XP application.So the question I'm asking is does anyone know of another way to make the USB drive bootable? I tried a program called WinSetupFromUSB but it stops me before the installation process starts and prompts me to browse for drivers, and I haven't been able to solve this problem yet
So, I recently upped my RAM capability from 4Gb to 8Gb DDR3. My Processor (a core i3) is 64 bit compatible, and I want to upgrade to 64 bit windows 7.
Just a few things to note here: I have 2 physical hard drives. a 250Gb one that is my main boot drive, and contains the 32 bit windows 7. The other is a 320Gb one that was in my old PC before I upgraded, and transferred it over. This second hard drive still contains Windows Vista, and I access files, games and programmes from it regularly.
My question is this, With this set-up is it feasible for me to upgrade to 64 bit? If so, what would be the best way to go about it? (I have read up a bit on microsofts own page).
