Way Tovget Rid Of The Windows 8 And Go Back To Normal Windows 7?
Dec 27, 2012
i did a stupid thing I have windows 7 installed on my 1gb drive and have a second 2gb drive so I thought I could install windows 8 on the second drive but did not unplug the windows 7 drive anyway the windows 8 installation completed but would not boot up. So now I have to unplug my backup drive to boot up it comes up with the windows 8 sybol and then gives me the option to load my previous windows 7 which load successfully. My question is does any one know how I can get rid of the windows 8 and go back to my normal windows 7 start up.
Basically what happens is there's a sudden slowdown in computer performance. For example if I'm listening to a live stream, watching a video, or playing a game it will suddenly all go into slow motion for a few seconds and then return to normal speed. I know it's more of a global problem because I can see it happening with other programs, too. When a web page is loading the load speed may suddenly go very slowly for a few seconds, or even if I'm typing in Microsoft Word I'll keep hitting keys, and the keystrokes will be logged, but no words will appear for a few seconds and then it will suddenly have to catch up.
What I've tried to do: A friend suggested my CPU was overloaded, but I checked my CPU usage and it's always quite low, as in below 50% as far as I've ever seen. Someone else suggested defragmenting my hard drive, which I did using TuneUp Utilities, but if anything that made the problem worse, because now in addition to slowing down sometimes things will just stop for a few seconds, or web pages will time out but when I reload them they work fine. My machine: I'm using a Lenovo Ideapad, intel Core i7, 4 GB RAM.
I have just attached another screen to my Vaio.i used the Dual monitor setup windows 7 offers change the appearance of your displays.I chose the "extended these displays" my problem happened after applying the new settings my laptop screen went up side down while my new monitor went blue screen.how can i get my laptop screen back to normal?
I was trying to make it so I could see where my appdata folder was in my user folder and now my PC name folder that was in "users" is no longer there.My user folder had the name of my computer on it with a lock symbol. I entered that folder, found that appdata wasn't showing yet. So I right clicked on the empty space in window, selected properties and at the bottom checked the box "hidden" in the attributes section (thinking this would show the hidden folders), then I think I clicked okay. Some processing took place and then the processing stopped mid way and a message came up (I forget exactly what it said) it asked me to give administrator permission to do something. I then noticed the advanced button next to attritributes and thought maybe I was supposed to enable hidden folders in there, and that enabling hidden attributes may have been a mistake, so I cancelled out of the process midway at the point where I was asked for administrator permission. Now my PC-name user folder has disappeared.
All of my icons changed from the link to the program of word pad! I cant reverse it back!!!! I am typing this on a seprate computer though. I try to click on any of theem, and they just open up word. I tried SYstem Restore,Rebooting, defasult settings and Control panne!!
Two PCs here, one with Windows Business other with Ultimate have the same problem.They don't crash or completely stop, nor go slow along the day. They just give me several small halts during the entire operation.Everything is up to date, during stress test no problems are noticeable but (one PC is overclocked by 40%, other is stock).Full virus check, nothing found.
I tried to disable a couple of startup programs by checking Selective startup and disables some programs on startup. Now my computer is running funny. When I tried to go back into msconfig and check normal (under general tab) and click apply, it won't save and automatically goes back to selective. I've tried running as admin...still can't change it.Tired restore to an early point....what happened? I'm running Windows 7
Basically, I turned on my laptop and it automatically went on Safe mode and I can't get back to normal. The screen is also blurry and instead of the taskbar I can see the top of the screen...eugh.. If you get me. Should I reinstall my Windows? p.s. I don't have a disk for it, so I guess I will have to download a ISO or something. Will this get everything back to normal?
I had a little problem with my computer opening .exe file. I had it made by mistake to open with Adobe Reader, but I managed to fix the opening part, but icons on the desktop still show the Adobe Reader sign.
I have a laptop that i often connect to a tv screen. When i am just using the laptop screen i keep the dpi value to its normal default setting, but inceease it when i connect it to the tv so things are easier to read. When i disconnect from the tv and go back to the laptop screen everything is too big bevause of the increased dpi,i set it back to its default settings.However when i do this everything is rediculously small and sometimes impossible to read. Even setting a larger dpi from this point creates text that is too small. I cant go higher from this point because it also makes my windows too big. Does anyone know how i can get back my normal text size with a default setting of 100% dpi?
For some reason, my start menu has suddenly become ridiculously tall, spanning the entire height of the screen. This image might give a better idea: imgur: the simple image sharer.
I have no idea how or why this happened. I tried searching for the problem, but I can't find a single thing even remotely related. My recent items count is at 0, so it's nothing to do with that. I've already tried fiddling about with the setting for that, but with no success at all. I tried a system restore to before this occurred, but this had absolutely no effect either. It's only affecting this profile, and no others (although, really, the only others are guest or temp accounts).
I was just playing Gmod then all a sudden My computer crashed, it didn't BSOD just shut off. So i started it and my video-card is not working anymore neither is my dvi port on my mother board but VGA was still working. The fan on video-card still works so does the leds.

I have an Acer w/ 8gb of ram(Newly installed was 4gb) w/ a 1TB HDD. On idle it range's from about 16-20%(1200-1600mb) I've had a few windows open w/ music video's plying etc. and it's never gone past 28% that's why I think at idle its high.
Is this normal. I opened up task manager under memory and closed some thing's I didn't need but it still seems pretty high.
1st time poster, I have a HP 425 laptop, windows 7 professional.The laptop works fine in Safe Mode but in normal mode it works for few minutes and then goes blank. There is power and nothing works (the wireless button stops responding)I have changed the system board/motherboard, did a complete reinstallation, ran HP hardware test and memory test that comes with the laptop. I hooked the laptop to and external display and the display is blank as well. I logon in Safe mode and used msconfig and stopped th
I have a Sony Vaio with Windows 7 installed on it. Recently, my computer was attacked by a virus. As soon as I noticed, I turned off the computer manually, and booted back up in safe mode. I ran Avast, Ad-Aware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. All 3 found a couple of threats, which I deleted. I tried restarting my computer, and then running these 3 again in safe mode (with network). I did it as long as threats were found. Once the computer felt safe, I tried booting in normal mode.
Here's the problem : I get to the "Welcome" page, and then everything goes black but my cursor. What's strange about the problem : For some reason, I did succeed to get it to open normally 2 or 3 times, but every single time it would be crazy laggy. Internet Explorer wouldn't work either. It freezes as soon as I try to access anything. And now it's back to a black screen after the "Welcome" page when I try booting in normal mode. Only my cursor appears (I can move the cursor). Safe Mode works just fine too, only Normal mode has a problem.
Yesterday, I added malware bytes protection and also last night installed avg 2012. Ran scans, everything was moving faster. Shut down last night...and this morning windows will not come on in normal or safe mode. When try to start in safe mode it says STOP: c0000135 program cannot start %hs is missing. On another post with similar code it had a link to put on usb drive and to put in infected laptop and restart with f8. When I did that it said no bootable partition in table. When usb is not in it just goes back to stop message. I have a dell inspiron core i3 (I don't know if that matters). I have tried running restore to previous time and it did not work. when i click on repair it goes to the launch window or start in safe mode option?
Combo fix was run a couple times. It said not sure where download came from (was trying to get rid of security tool virus that was redirecting websites occasionally). But said It didn't remember any messages coming up, restarted. Everything was fine, installed malware bytes constant protection. Later that night I installed free avg 2012 and ran scans everything good. Computer ran great. Shut down at night. In morning windows would not load in regular or safe mode. When try to repair it goes to launch windows repair or start windows normally screen. When hit launch repair it goes back to that screen. If you start in safe mode it says that it is loading windows files then blue screen appears with "Stop: c0000135 program can not load %hs is missing."
Win 7 Normal Mode won't start, will go past Starting up Screen and just hit a Black screen and will hit a Crash Dump (blue error screen)..... I can boot into safe mode fine and I have fun CHKSDK and after a reboot it fixed a few problems but I hit the same Crash Dump Screen. I have also made sure my whole pc is all clean and connected, no corroding parts etc etc, made sure my pci-e slot is default etc etc, no luck at all...Its a new installation and worked fine last night and early this morning after separate boots. But as soon as I booted this afternoon it wouldn't load and would hit the blue error crash dump screen..
I had bought windows vista along time ago and when i got it, it had said that i would get a free windows 7 upgrade in the mail when it got released. Well the time has come and passed. I have a small problem where i need to reinstall windows 7 but i cant find my windows vista disc or Serial Key. Now i found a site that explained how to make it so i can just install the upgrade and fool it into thinking that its a normal copy.

Now im wondering if this still works and if other people have done it or if there are easyer ways. Keep in mind i cant afford to buy a nonupgrade version of windows 7 atm.
how do I restart my laptop pc windows 7 in normal mode now that it is stuck in safe mode? Putting this in the top of page did nothing Start > MSConfig > Boot > Uncheck Safe Boot > Restart.

I am working with an emachine with windows 7 home premium installed. Tech Support Guy System Info Utility version 1.0.0.2 OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) II X2 250u Processor, AMD64 Family 16 Model 6 Stepping 2 Processor Count: 2 RAM: 3839 Mb Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430, 256 Mb Hard Drives: C: Total - 703013 MB, Free - 637698 MB; Motherboard: eMachines, MCP61PM-GM Antivirus: None Was given machine with infections, tried to fix viruses with HDD installed but could not boot normal, only safe mode.Removed HDD and slaved to working system and ran virus scan. cleared 18 viruses, ran a second scan on drive and it came back clean (used norton antivirus)Loaded the HDD back into the machine and still can only boot into safe mode. Searched forums and saw similar issue and followed instructions listed below:Open Regedit.exe Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSafeBoot Delete the subkey folder called OPTION Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerEnvironment Delete the value called SAFEBOOT_OPTION Reboot and done The problem is, there is no option subkey under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSafeBoot I did delete the SAFEBOOT_OPTION under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerEnvironment and restarted. It booted in safemode and when I checked regedit again. the SAFEBOOT_OPTION under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerEnvironment was back and shows Minimal under it. I changed it to normal and restarted and it changes back to minimal after booting to safemode again.
I've just ran a full system restore on my niece's Dell Inspiron N5030 which runs Windows 7. After the restore the laptop restarted and went into the setup screen... then it tells me it's unable to continue the setup whilst in safe mode and asks me to restart...thus the loop continues.how to start in normal mode and continue the setup?I've tried going to the black boot screen which has a variety of options including "Start Windows Normally" but none of these worked.
I have win7 on C drive and WinXPsp3 on D drive. Drives are separate. You can see full specs below.
I boot into XP on D fine. I can also boot into Win7 on C fine, but here is the catch. The computer wants to go into a chkdsk if I boot into win7. If I let the computer do this it goes through a very long process and when it comes out of that process it reboots and goes through its normal procedure.
But then when it gets to the very last step, the step where it shows the wallpaper, icons and taskbar, all I get is blank screen.
If I boot into safe mode I can see everything. If I boot into safemode with networking I can see everything. As a matter of fact that is how I am typing this message now.
What do I need to do to get my computer to boot correctly?
Here are my specs: Desktop: Drive C: W7 Home Premium 80GB NTFS (IDE) Drive D: WinXP Pro sp2 80GB NTFS (IDE)
I am using Windows 7 Pro on a Dell Inspiron 1520. Today, when I attempted to start the unit, I heard a rapid beeping that was uncontrollable until I clicked the Control Key. There are no error messages. I have done 2 cold boots and a memory diagnostic (which found no errors) with no positive results. It begins right when the screen indicates it is Starting Windows. Once I get past that, it seems to operate normally, but I am concerned there is a root problem that will surface with disastrous results at a later time.
