I recently purchased a new system (about 2 weeks ago) but I've noticed my 64bit software is only able to use 10 of 12GB installed.When I look at the system properties I see windows recognizes 12GB RAM installed but sais only 10GB of it is available.Any thoughts? I paid lots of money for my RAM so I'm not really considering this a luxery problem (When I startup it sais the memory frequency is 1066. Not sure if this is useful)I'm not really thinking a faulty stick because windows recognizes al sticks.
I got the good old horror game FEAR and everytime i play it lags pretty bad like rank even on low and stuff it just has crappy FPS.or is it because FEAR is just to old and Win 7 is just too new!?
I need urgent help because after my AVAST free 30-days trial ended,my machine has starting going backwards.I've downloaded MSE (microsoft security essentials) and tried to install it,but it comes up with:ERROR CODE=0x8004FF01 (which means Windows Installer cant be started/accesded) I've also tried with AVG but it comes up with= The WIS could not be accesed. This can occur if the WSI is not properly installed. But,people,problem is I GOT WIS UP AND RUNNING,I can see it the services tab.I suspect that is a Virus or a missing file.I also tried doing the following things to no avail
-System restore. -SFC SCANNOW -Chkdsk. -Malwarebytes says there is nothing (malware). -Full scan avast says there is nothing. All said that the operation was successful but it stills comes up with the same error.
I fear using my GMAIL,HOTMAIL and PAYPAL accounts because I dont know if they will get "stolen" Know Im starting to think who was the one responsible for this...

I have a PC running Windows 7 with 3 HDs(not partition, different HDs).2) I used Windows 7 to create an image of the OS HD(C and placed it in D.3) I used the image once or twice so I know it's a god image, and it's notcorrupted.4) Lately I've been having performence/computer-gets-stuck-issues and Iuspected the HD(C because my RAM is fine, and finally windows alreted my that that HDis failing.(plus, I can hear "ticks" of the HD's nittle trying to read whenever the computer got frozen for a sec or two.5) I replaced the HD that was C: with a new one, and installed Windows 7 again.6) Tried to restore using the image and the recorery system said that it needs to formatthe drive that it's on(makes sense) and ordered me to perform the restore throughthe windows installation disk,7)I did. but I get a similiar error that ordered me to restore with an image but using a windowsinstallation disk(and I got to this error using the instllation disk)How can I make the image work?the only problem I can see is that the image was taken off a a different HD

To prevent the new default route from being created, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) on the Networking tab for the properties of the VPN connection. Click Properties, and then click Advanced. In Advanced TCP/IP Settings, on the General tab, clear the Use default gateway on remote network check box. I have internet access but I dont think its through the VPN. I am connected but it says on the VPN stats: Without internet access. Because when I try to go through some blocked ports in my school it still doesnt work but It works with YourFreedom(with openvpn mode).

Well when I turn on my laptop, it just starts at Windows Error Recovery. Then it has two options which are 1. Launch Start up Repair (recommended) and 2. Start Windows Normally. But when I go to the second option it does not work and just goes to the first option and that itself doesn't work either.

After searching the entirety of the internet I have come here to try to resolve my problem. I have a Seagate barracuda 1.5tb 3.5" 7200rpm hard drive which i was previously using to run windows server 2008. I am now trying to use it as an external hard drive for my laptop, however the laptop does not seem to recognize it. I tried using two different cases, three different usb ports, and i confirmed that everything was properly plugged in and powered on.

It was bad in XP, but seems worse in Windows 7.Clipboard doesnt seem to hold onto last Copied item long at all. I will copy a string of text and if I I dont paste it very soon after it wont paste.Usually I hcopy a piece of text, and if I have to minimize a few windows or do too many keystroke before pasting it gets lost and I have to go back and re-copy it.Its just beuggier than expected for such a nice OS.

Ok, i built a "whitebox" for a friend at work and they wanted to windows 7 64bit. So, i built the machine and have been trying to figure out how to get it to recognize the HD for the past 4 hours... mainly thanks to Samsung for making impossible to find drivers on their website for the Spinpoint F1 HD102UJ 1TB hard drive and i am also having problems finding drivers from the Gigabyte website... Anyway, suggestions? I gone through all the suggestions about checking the BIOS for RAID settings, but there is only 1 drive in this machine.
Furthermore, after trying to find the drivers online for about 2 hours...i ended up reformatting the drive from the utility disk that samsung had on their website..
