Mar 13, 2012

I loaded WIN7 Home Premium onto a HP Notebook with 2 gig RAM, 60 gig HDD, and 1.67 Intel CPU. Not running well and want to revert back to XP which is fine for our use. In trying to make room on HDD, I deleted windows.old file. So my question is how do I reformat HDD and get back to clean machine without anything loaded and then load XP. Tried to install with XP disc but it would not let me. have Win7 on desktop and love it but it has the horsepower to run it like it should be run.

Trying To Revert From Failed New MB Install Now Windows 7 Won't Boot

Jul 25, 2012

I made the naive mistake of trying to upgrade from a Biostar TH67+ MB to a MSI Z77A-GD65 MB using my existing Windows install. After I installed the new MB and the new drivers within Win 7 Pro 64 bit, the machine wouldn't boot. So I reverted to the Biostar MB and it still won't boot. I have tried Safe Mode (which just hangs) and I have run Startup Repair several times. How I can further troubleshoot/repair the boot?

Windows 7 64bit, Network And Battery Options Revert To Default On Startup

Jul 29, 2012

i have a 7 series samsung laptop, I can make my own "custom" power plan, or even set it on balanced or anything, and when i shut computer down(doing it properly), and start it up, the power plan is back on "Samsung Eco Mode". I'm not sure if THIS eco mode is what is then turning off the network card, but also when i start, the internet is connected for about 5 seconds, then disconnected....adding another piece to the puzzle there is a program installed from the factory called "Easy Settings" and when i open that, network card is in "off" position, i turn it on and instantly have internet again. This easy settings program is on my list of programs i can uninstall, but im not sure if its whats reverting settings or not, getting to be verrry annoyed with opening 6 menus everytime i start-up to get everything the way i want it again. actually also i have heard these samsung laptops come w.lots of fluff programs that arent needed, if anyone knows MORE of these i can uninstall thatd be amazing.

Revert Back To Win 7 64 Bit From Win 7 32 Bit

Nov 12, 2009

Problem Description: I was using Windows 7 (64 bit) and having difficulty operating some CS4 applications even when I changed the compatibility settings. I decided to clean install the 32 bit version of Windows 7 to see if this would remedy the problem. I had purchased the Windows 7 Professional package so both discs were available to me. The CS4 situation did not improve. However I am not concerned with the CS4 issue at present

what I would like to do is revert back to Windows 7 (64 bit) and I don't know how.

I went from Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 (64 bit) to Windows 7 (32 bit)

and now I want to go back to Windows 7(64 bit) is this possible.

Cannot Boot Due To A Need To Revert An Update

Jul 16, 2012

Win 7 Professional with all current updates an patches that Windows update wanted installed. IE 9 stopped working, it would just flash on and then off.

Followed a MS guide that was to FIXIT and the program failed. Tried Method 2, manual reset of IE options, In the control panel I clicked 'Interent Options' nothing happens. Never get to the reset button I was to click.

uninstall IE9. Could not do it via the Windows Update as this was installed as part up the original installation. Followed the other open to turn off IE 9 which is suppose to remove IE9 and then Windows Update can reinstall it. That worked and I now had a flashing IE8. The Update failed though. MS forum says to go to the IE9 site and download it myself. That failed.

Now was told do a recovery. That failed, not surprising as it was a restore point created by one of the earlier attemps to fix the problem. An older backup from March was also an option and and that failed saying is was missing files needed.

Tried a number of other suggestions and something via msconfig that I have forgotten now. It was 2 AM and was getting rather loopy and frustrated. I decided to follow the steps again that seemed to at least get me IE 8 and did the turn off again. That failed and now I cannot boot as it is stuck trying to revert the computer back to the state it was in before I tried the function. Safe mode said it did a restore and had me started though. I tried to restart normally and I was right back at the reverting problem again.

I REALLY DO NOT want to do a system reinstall but I am at a lose where to go next.

Revert Back To AMD Phenom II X3 720?

Nov 25, 2011

Apparently the CPU has been overclocked, but tends to revert back to AMD Phenom II X3 720 from time to time. The CPU is inserted in the ASRock N68-VS3 UCC motherboard. Does it reverting back means that the overclocking procedure is somewhat unstable or is it just a graphic glitch? Also, how better is a AMD Phenom II X3 720 to an AMD Phenom II X4 20 both @ 2.8 GHz?

Folder Permissions - Unable To Revert Back

Sep 21, 2012

I am in a problem here. A day before yesterday, I was messing up with folder permissions and unfortunately I messed up pretty badly.

The problem is I changed the folder permissions of C:Program Files and C:Program Files (x86) to Deny for all users. These included

Authenticated Users
System
Administrators
Users

I was logged in with an Administrator Account. Now the problem is I cannot access the above folders with any user. All my applications installed in those folders do not work.

I tried several solutions available on the net like changing ownership, using THE Administrator account, etc but to no avail and these folders are still locked.

Is there anyway I can access these files or shall I resort to the ultimate step i.e. re-install windows.

Non Legitimate 7 Ultimate / Best Option To Revert To Home

Oct 13, 2012

I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C855-10Z and after having a memory error on my HDD was sent a emplacement, at this point I installed what was meant to be a legitimate copy of Ultimate Edition. Now I know this isn't the case.What is the best option for reverting to Home Premium 64 for which I have a legal CD key. When I replaced my HDD I created the Toshiba Recovery disks, I assume these restore me to factory setting including the original installation of windows? Should I put any important files on USB and then run these, just I've heard they don't always work as well as they should.

Resolution Revert Takes 7000 Seconds?

Feb 20, 2013

I've got a strange one here. I work for a small IT business that builds PC's for home consumer use. We have a standard computer build that we make and sell that performs fine. (Win 7 64 bit Pro,asus f1a55-m lx plus r2.0 mobo, AMD a8-5600k proc, Radeon HD 6000 onboard video).

We've built hundreds identical to this, but this morning I came across one that had a peculiar problem. Any time you go to change the monitor's resolution (on any monitor), the timer for it to revert back if it goes out of range is set at 7000 seconds (as opposed to the standard 30). I've never before come across something like this. I looked through every configuration setting known, and exhausted my google resources as well. I can't find anything at all on this subject.

Webpages Load, Then Close, Revert To Home Page?

Mar 29, 2011

Windows 7, 64 Dell XPS 8000 system. All browsers (Firefox, IE7, Opera) exhibit same behavior, which is when starting from the home page and browse to another page or tab, the page will stay open for a few seconds and then close and the browser displays the home page. Also, when trying to open Outlook 2007 from Outlook Today, I cannot open the inbox. The only way to do so is "open in new window". This is also true when trying to open folders.

Data Files Revert To Previous Versions After Restart

Nov 26, 2009

For the third time in a week, Windows 7 has replaced some of my personal data files with earlier versions, without my consent, following a restart. I'm talking about my outlook Data file (outlook.pst), my Quicken data files and a few others. Files are located in different places, but mostly in my Documents folder.

There are no errors, no crashes and no warning whatsoever. I just restart the PC and suddenly my data files are overwritten with sometimes days old versions. The first time it happened I assumed that maybe I hadn't properly saved my document(s), but then I noticed it actually WAS replacing current files with earlier versions. I would enter a few days worth of transactions into Quicken, save and even backup the files, only to have it revert back to a file that was saved two days ago after restarting the PC, causing me to have to re-enter all those transactions. Same thing with Outlook - I could add/change/remove appointments in my calendar, only to discover that it went back to an earlier time after the next restart, all changes made would be lost. Just a simple reboot is all it takes - the last time I had to reboot to update a driver. This is completely unexpected & unacceptable behavior. What would cause Windows 7 to do this?

Dual Monitors Revert To Mirror, And Shortcuts Disappear

Dec 17, 2009

I have an Alienware m17x laptop (Dell) running Win 7 Pro 64-bit. I have it set up to output to an external 22" monitor as a two-monitor setup, and the monitors are set to extend the desktop across both monitors.

Occasionally it will suddenly revert to mirroring the desktop on both monitors. After I go in to the setting I change it back to extended desktop, but my wallpaper disappears (desktop is black). Although the taskbar is still there, and works fine.

This also, possibly, has caused desktop shortcuts not to display. I generally don't keep any desktop shortcuts. all the default ones are set not to display, and even my recycle bin is on the taskbar, but if I go to an .exe file in explorer, or even from the start menu, and choose Send > To desktop as shortcut, _no_ shortcut appears on the desktop.

I looked in my actual desktop folder, and all the shortcuts are there, they just won't appear on the desktop!

Any ideas? I know there are problems with Dell computers and Win 7 as far as graphics go, is this just another Dell quirk?
