View 8 RepliesI brought a new CPU yesterday Motherboard : GA-880GM-USB3 (gigabyte)CPU : AMD FX 8120Memory : 4+4 DDR3 RAM 1333MHzBIOS VERSION : GA-880GM-USB3 FE OS installed : I have both windows 7 x86 and x64 installed on the machine. But my problem is that when ever i run windows either of them, I can only see 6gb of ram and of which only 3.5 is useable in x64 and 2.8gb useable in x86. BUT when i installed CPUID's CPU-Z I can see that the whole 8gb of Ram is working, i.e., hardware is fine, but how do i get to see the whole ram and utilize it fully
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have searched google for ours trying to find a fix for this but to no avail.CD drive and virtual drives dont appear in my computer and whenever i put in a dvd nothing comes up.it appears in device manager and disc management however so i know there is nothing physically wrong with the optical drive. Under disc manager i can see the details about the dvd such as dvd name, size etc.i tried changing drive letter and path but unfortunately that doesnt fix it. the letter "applies" for a second then disappears again.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI received my laptop yesterday - Core i5, 4GB RAM, Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I proceeded to install some apps from Microsoft and Adobe. Installation went fine and the apps started without problems. As soon as I saw the long list of fonts in Word, I wanted to remove as many of them as I possibly could. Brought up Fonts panel. Only 10 fonts - 10 ancient, bitmap fonts. What!? I saw and selected many fonts in Microsoft and Adobe apps. The fonts are indeed there, but they are simply not shown - no Segoe, no Cambria, no Corbel, no Constantia, not even Arial and Times New Roman, nothing.I got nervous and decided to restore Windows all the way back to the starting point.Today, I created the recovery DVDs from the factory partition. Rebooted from the DVDs to re-image C drive. Set up Windows and created my account. Windows 7 came up fresh. I went straight to the Fonts panel to check. Horror - the same 10 bitmap fonts, and nothing else.The factory-installed Windows 7 has problems showing fonts? What should I do now?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Western Digital 1 TB External USB HDD.I have used it for some time.One day, I was copying files from my laptop to the USB HDD.It was taking for ever. So, I tries to cancel it. It wouldn't cancel. So, I disconnected the USB HDD by pulling the USB chord.From that day, it is not working.When I connect it will show it as a local-disk, but not show any details like size or name of the drive. It takes forever to open right-click menu and properties. Disk Manager takes for ever to show the list of drives. If I double-click on the drive, my whole system becomes slow and windows explorer hangs.If I restart my system in Safe mode, it will show the drive in Disk Manager as RAW and it gives me an option to format.Is there a way to recover the data and the HDD.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an HP Photosmart 5510 printer but in About:Config it shows three.The first is an old HP Deskjet we used to have which died and went to the skip. We were without a printer for a few months and then bought the HP Photosmart 5510 which I like. The third in the list is shown as a HP Photosmart 5510 (Network), obviously the same.The first needs removing, how do I do that please?The second is the current printer and is correct.I can account for the third entry. I've tried to set up a Home Group Network between PC and Netbook, without success, a suspect I may have changed the printer name for networking and perhaps gave it an IP No too.

For a while now, I've had problems with USB devices, but today I was looking online and someone mentioned a solution to a problem I was having, saying to look in Device Manager under the Ports tree.My Ports tree in DM is gone, but I also don't know how to access my COM3 port or other ports any other way. Should the Ports tree be there? I've already restarted my computer and entered the BIOS menu, and it said my USB Ports were enabled.I've already been to the Registry Editor in Blah-Blah key and entered "3" (was already that way).My ports are just gone. What should I do?
I have noticed on my PC, netstat does not display TCP ports, only UDP ports are shown. I have searched online for this issue but couldn't find anything useful.I'm running win7 x64 ultimate.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI run an accounting program called PASTEL ACCOUNTING which generates emails that are sent to OUTLOOK 2010's outbox. i can see them in the outbox and they are subsequently sent correctly. i know this because they are received correctly by the recipient. However once the mail has left the Outbox it is not stored in the SENT folder and i therefore have no record of its existence! PASTEL tell me that since it has found its way into OUTLOOK it must be an OUTLOOK problem! i have a feeling MS will tell me its a PASTEL problem..

My laptop is connected to a router (DLink DSL 524T) via network cable. Although I could still connect to the net through the router there is a cross shown between the Network and Internet in the Networks and Sharing Center.
This isn't a big deal (since I connect to the Internet) but I was wondering why the cross is there? Is there a way I could get it off?
P.S. - I've attached a screen-shot of the network and sharing center in case my explanation was a bit confusing

View 1 Replies View RelatedHave a question that relates to the taskmanager not showing up in my notification area/system tray.When in use, it should show up in the notification area/system tray, yes? I have notifications set to show all.The way I have it set up is there is a shortcut of taskman in my startup folder. The properties of the shortcut are to start it minimized. This way when the PC starts, the taskmanager is not seen/opened. The options in the taskmanager itself are to hide when minimized, minimize on use.So the way it used to work was when the PC was started or rebooted, I'd have taskmanager running in the system tray. But for whatever reason it no longer does this. I've checked the shortcut settings of taskman in startup and everything looks ok. If I opened taskmananger and then minimized it, it would normally retreat back to the system tray. This no longer happens either, it just disappears.
The only changes made to how the PC starts up is, I have it auto-login into a password protected account and then the account enters the locked state before anything can be done. This way the PC is still protected, but I'm no longer waiting for things to load after entering my PW the old way. With it setup this way as soon as I enter my password from the Locked screen, everything has loaded and its ready to go much faster than not having it auto login/lock.I have not tried to boot/startup the old way, but I wouldn't want to keep it that way even if thats whats keeping taskmanager from starting up in the system tray. Because the problem still exists that when taskman is manually opened with hide when minimized and minimize on use, it just disappears and doesn't show up in the notification area/system tray.
I figured out how to do the French characters such as or , but i can't figure out the shortcuts for things such as or , even though the keyboard has buttons for them.

I just installed the RC last night and everything was going okay until I restarted my computer and my backup drive disappeared. It was accessible until I restarted, I didn't install any new drivers.
It's an IDE drive.. it doesn't show up in Disk Management either so I'm kind of stuck at what to do. Any ideas?
