Windows was installing some updates while shutting down my PC yesterday. The electricity supply got cut off for a second or two and my PC shut down during the updates installation abruptly. Booted my PC after that today morning and my computer wouldn't get past the black screen with the Windows logo on it. Can someone guide me as to how to repair the installation? I was running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit SP1. I have the installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I dont want to do a clean install. Just repair the Win 7 files. Startup repair couldn't fix it. And there is NO system restore point available!

Basically, I built myself a new Gaming PC. I decided to get a SSD purely for gaming while using two older 500GB Caviar Blue HDDs. They were rather slow and boot up was probably around 1 minute + loading closer to 3 minutes. So I installed the OS on the SSD. Boot and loading is now about 4 second, it's amazing! But my problem is, I want to use the SSD for the OS and maybe a select game or two.
Currently everything is on my other 500GB HD which is where I would like to leave it. But the problem is loading everything or launching programs. Is it possible to keep my OS on the SSD and not have it as the C: drive?
Can I get around not having to reinstall everything so it works again? Hope I'm being clear in my goal!
Just in case, an example would be I want to play BF3, I go to my (F drive (which used to be my (C) and try to launch the game. But it doesn't work anymore obviously.
The other thing is I don't want to be forced to install programs on the SSD which never give the option to select the installation location. (Also when using the start menu the shortcuts to everything typically relate to the C: drive)
I'm sure people have done this! I also still have the OS on my 500GB HD as well if that helps, figure it wouldn't hurt to leave on there just in case!

We've just got a laptop with Win7 installed our desktop has XP. When surfing there are a load of toolbars at the top of the screen so I've been trying to switch off the ones we won't use as it reduces the usable screen size. Unfortunately I've switched off the toolbar where the option to switch on or off toolbars is situated, ie I can't now turn it back on again!The other toolbar with a 'Tools' drop down doesn't have that option. Now what do I do please?Associated with this, when using XP I was able to have more than one toolbar on the same row - but I can't work out how to do that on Win7

This one is new in build 7201. Whenever I switch my monitor off, the entire system restarts. This happens every time.
I did have nVidia driver problems with the older builds, but I could always revert to the default driver. However this time, the default driver was already giving me issues, periodically going into BSOD. I decided to download the latest beta from nVidia hoping it would at least solve the random BSOD.
Well... it did. But it gives me a the issue I mention in the subject.

64installed on c, win 7 later installed an d. dual boot has been working perfectly until
something caused the drives to switch. now win 7 starts ok but looks for all it's files on c, which is locked.
vista starts up fine, and sees all it's files on c as it should.
my windows 7 repair disk, created at start of win 7, does not correct problem, nor does system restore.

I just switched my old HDD to my Gateway computer and I'm getting BSOD when starting up Windows. I know it has something to do with the drivers and Windows 7 from the HDD being in a new Computer, but how do I reformat without losing some of my old files like music and such? I tried repairing the system, but it didn't work. I do have a Windows 7 CD, is it possible that I can wipe out the old Windows from my HDD using killdisk and install windows 7 again?

I have windows 7 family version. My laptop is an ASUS K52F. I use MSE. For some reason, my firewall protection has been switched off. I don't know how long it's been off. Recently, I've started getting intrusive chinese pop ups when I open my firefox browser. I get emails from paypal saying someone is trying to access my account. I live in China and have to use internet for banking. Can I be sure that I am clean of any bads things?

I have Windows 7 home 64bit and I use the 2012 version of Norton Internet Security.Over the last few days the Action Center keeps telling me that NIS has been switched off and raising issues about antispyware, antivirus and the firewall. NIS is sitting there telling me that everything is secure.
I don't think there is a major issue but it is very irritating. I can resolve it for today by going into NIS, switching everything off and then back on again. So it looks like something has gone wrong with the communication between Windows and NIS at start up.

Just came back from overseas again and another motherboard died on my Windows 7 64 computer. I swapped motherboards, and luckily it booted up made a number of changes in drivers but seems ok.The issue is not that when i'm drawing on the computer resources to play a 3d game among other things I'm hearing weird snaps and pops about everything 15 seconds.Any advice for this situation? Do I need to do a complete windows 7 reinstall or do you think the motherboard is faulty?

I've just switched from IE9 to Google chrome, as some websites didn't load right in IE 9 even with compatibly mode enabled. The only thing I don't like about chrome is that if you download a file it automatically saves it, where in IE9 you had the option to save it, or just open it. Is it possible to achieve that in chrome, as some stuff i download i don't need saved, and i hate having to go through my download and delete stuff.

how to log out users that are idle on Windows 7? I work for a company that has computers in general areas, anyone can walk up and login and use it for business. Many of my users don't log off and later when they change their password these machines lock out their AD accounts. I was thinking that we could use the group policies that are used for terminal services to log out after being idle for x amount of time.

My specific problem is i have pressed some key combination on my vaio fw11m laptop, and the keys on the right hand side of the keyboard - u,i,o,p,h,j,k,l,b,n,m are now coming up as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 - when pressed. I have tried alt/fn/ctrl with some of the function keys to reverse this, but to no avail. I remember this happening once with a previous vaio 7 yrs ago, I cannot remember the key combination to correct it.

So, I just upgraded my computer to windows 7 professional 32-bit. The hard drive was reformatted so there isn't much on it. Its been running for about 3 days now and has not been running properly from day one. It just freezes up and the screen goes black randomly. I get an error message that tells me the display drivers have stopped responding and recovered. It happens pretty often and I everytime I've tried to play a video it starts to act crazy. I have an EVGA Nvidia Geforce 9400GT 1GB Graphics card and I was using the 275.33 drivers but someone suggested going to a previous driver so now I am running 266.58.

I've got a problem when I start my laptop ( medion akoya ) after windows start up, the screen stays black & takes a while to display my desktop. I then get the yellow warning triangle with the following message: Display driver Intel graphics drivers for Windows 7 (R) stopped responding and have successfully recovered. Now this happens 90% of the time & some pics on some forums don't show up for me, just shows as a little square box.Also, When I run a scan, I get this: "";"D:DRIVER4. AudioRealtek_6.0.1. 6083MSHDQFEWin2K_ XPuskb888111xpsp2. exe";"The file is signed with a broken digital signature, issued by: Microsoft Corporation.";"". More than likely all connected, but I'm not very techy when it comes to computers. I've got 3 cd's that came with the lappy: Recovery disc, Microsoft Works 9 & Applications & support disc, I'm afraid if I put any of these in the drive that it will auto run lol. Can somebody please tell me, is it just a matter of using one of these discs to re-install the the above drivers & if so, which disc??

url...I installed it and started experiencing some serious problems. When i do anything slightly stressful on the system (mostly gaming) the game runs fine but after a few minutes (sometimes seconds) into gaming the screen will freeze, go black, then come back again. I get a pop up that says "Display drivers have stopped working and have recovered". This is extremely aggravating and stressful for me seeing as ive read a few things on this problem and all the trouble shooting ive done has got me no where. Ive tried keeping the system cooler, adjusting the OC, giving the cpu a bit more voltage, updating drivers, and taking the radeon 6450 i had in (with dual graphics enabled). The motherboard i have in here is a Gigabyte A75M-S2V.

I have been adjusting my DRAM timings in the BIOS and lose the ability to reboot onto Windows 7 64-bit. So, I power down and reboot and I get a black/blank screen and 2 beeps from the MB. So, I turn off my computer and I have to remove my Graphics card to access the OS again. Can anyone suggest an option or two that will help me restore to SLI mode?
