View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to know what I can use to make sure dust gets out/doesn't get into my computer. I've heard canned air, which I remember using for my old VCR few years ago, but I remember it didn't do so well which is why I'm cautious over using thata agin for my desktop.P.S. after a while of usage upon turning it on, give or take 3-4 hours in, I think I'm hearing the fan sound in a unusually way, but not in a good way, more like an okay/cautious way. It'll build up, after a while it'll go down. Hard to explain.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have win 7 home prem & would like to remove desktop icons that I never use (from the desktop). These icons are: documents, libraries, control panel, my documents, desktop. I normally delete icons by right clicking on the icon & selecting "delete." However, when I do this to "my documents" it starts to delete the data not the icon. I'm now afraid to delete the any of the above because I don't want to loose the information. I tried using "personalize" from the desktop but no luck.

View 9 Replies View RelatedLooking at buying a new PSU as mine is only 375 watts and am adding new components. With a lot of the newer psu's the fan is on the top of the unit and not the back like mine. As I have no way to mount the psu at the top of the case (my case and board are both btx). I also have no vent holes at the top of the case. So am I able to mount it at the top with the fan blowing down? Will this cause any heat or ventilation issues in the case itself?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI do an annual windows reinstall from an iso I made of the windows boot CD when I bought windows 7. I made the iso because it's easier to keep track of files rather than CDs, and whenever I would need to reinstall I would burn the iso to a disc, install from the disc, and throw out the disc once the install was complete. Well tonight I ran out of CDs with a large enough capacity to hold the iso, so I decided to get a bit fancy.
I mounted the iso and ran the setup utility through windows, and had it install a new partition of windows to one of my unused storage drives. The install went well, I restarted, and saw that there was an option to boot from two partitions of windows 7. I eventually figured out which one was the new one, and once desktop loaded up I went into msconfig and removed the old partition from the boot tab.
The problem pops up when I went back to reformat the old partition. It gave me an error stating that it cannot format a system drive. I figure that this is because the old partition is still active somehow even though I removed it from the msconfig boot menu.
Through a bit of googling I got a general idea of what had to be done, so I went into disk management and set the new partition to 'active'. I then restarted and went into BIOS, and switched the disk boot order so that the new partition came before the old partition. My bios did not like this, because it gave me an error about NTLDR missing. So it almost appears that the NTLDR thing isn't on the new partition, but that's just a guesstimation.
Other information:
- Old partition is "disk 0" in disk management
- New partition is "disk 1" in disk management
- I cannot modify or delete any of the system files on the old partition when I'm booted in the new partition.
I have removed a program from my Win 7 HP SP1 64-bit system but its entry still appears in both Win Add/Remove and Revo Uninstaller. I have tried the technique suggested by just about every Google search return for the problem (regedit: HKLM...current version >> uninstall) but the program does not appear in that list.I have gone through the registry and removed every reference to the program I could find by expanding literally every branch in Current User, Local Machine and Users. The entry still remains.The problem it creates is that is is being used as a default program selection for opening more than a few file types and I would like to be rid of it.
