Hardware Drivers :: Changing Cameras On Some Websites On Windows 8 System

Aug 29, 2013

I cannot change cameras I want to use on some websites (Skype and yahoo ok). When I go to try to select an external cam on some websites which merely show "About Adobe Flash Player" in the "camera area", I can't seem to pull up the icon which allows me to select the external camera. The internal camera works just fine on those sites, but if I disabled the internal camera "hoping the computer" would recognize the external camera as the "new default" camera, I then have no camera whatsoever on those sites.

Hardware Drivers :: System Won't Boot After Changing HDD Around?

Jan 15, 2014

I have an ssd (c) to boot win 8 pro 64 bit with one hd for backup (b) and two other hdd's (d and e) to install all my games to and personal files. My ssd was mounted on a 3.5" adaptor in a 5.25" bay so was partially floating so i ordered a 5.25" adaptor to fix it to.

Also my hdd for backup isnt used often so i bought a 5.25" hot swap bay for it so i can just plug in when i need to backup instead of having it constantly on.

When i plugged the drives back in i changed the sata 6 slots around a little and since then i can't get the pc to boot!

The hot swap bay seems to work power-wise but can't get to find if it works fully because i cant boot.

It seems to be a problem with the ssd as my asus sabertooth 990fx (rev 1) shows a constant "boot_device_led" light when it is connected but not with the others.

Basically when i turn the pc on it goes through POST but the mobo boot light stays on meaning its a boot problem?

I tried resetting the cmos a few times, changing ssd to different sata slots including the two sata 3 slots too, changing the sata connections from ahci to ide and back in the bios and none of this works.

One thing ive yet to do is turn off smart check in the hope it is a smart problem and will allow me to boot past the asus screen to try and repair the drive.

I'm not sure if its the ssd needs repairing or some kind of repair on the boot part of the drive or bios (boot choice)?

In the bios boot options it shows "boot manager" but i'm not sure the bcd is correct if I've moved hdd's around?

Windows 8 - Changing Partition And System Image (GUID To MBR)

Sep 8, 2013

I just bought a new Gateway that came with Windows 8, and the partition is GUID (GPT), so I am unable to use TrueCrypt for full-disk encryption. I wanted to change the partition, but the computer didn't come with a Windows 8 disk. All I have is a system image disk set that I created when I first set up the computer.

Can I open up command, change the partition table from within Windows, then restore the computer VIA system image? Will I need to get another drive first, or hook the current drive up to another computer and change there?

How might I go about changing the GUID to MBR without ruining the OS, because I don't have an installation disk for Windows 8.

Browsers/Mail :: Changing 64 Bit Operating System To 32 Bit?

May 7, 2014

Is there a way to change from 64 to 32 bit. I ran into a problem with running a program from a web site that implied that I needed a 32 bit web browser instead of 64 bit web browser. I did not put the 64 bit browser in so am unaware of how to fix this issue. It is from windows 8.1 x64 based processor ie version 10.1

Debugging :: Bad System Config Info - BSOD After Changing Boot Settings

Feb 16, 2014

Today when I played my favorite game ( entropia universe), I got a message from my game saying that I have low ram, I checked on the Ctrl alt del thing and I was shocked that only 3.8 gb ram was usable when i have 8 gb ram and using 64 bit system. So here comes to my first question... Why would this happen?

So I happened to follow a tutorial and turned on the maximum ram checkbox in the advanced settings in boot tab in msconfig. However when I first reboot I got the session 3 initialisation failed BSOD. The second time and third time and so on and so forth I got bad system config info, which turned my computer into a reboot loop. Second question, why would this happen?

My experience similar to this unlucky fellow : Win 8 BSOD : BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO (Details available)SOS

so I followed the guide in the thread and tried to recreate my BCD. I successfully got into the advanced setup options ( I think it is called this ?) by pressing shift +f8.

However I still failed as I was locked there. Every option including opening the command prompt is blocked because it said that operating these options needed administrative rights which I have in my hands. However the ASO said that it can't find any administrative accounts in my computer. Third question , why would this happen?

So now my computer fell into another loop. Whenever I started my computer it went into the ASO and wouldn't get away from it. And can't even see the lovely face in BSOD.

I am am using windows 8.1 in amd fx 8150 and 8 gb ram, computer was somehow normal with occasional freezing ( 1-2 times a month ).

Hardware Drivers :: Asus Laptop With Windows 8 64bit - Changing Default DVD Player?

Jun 27, 2013

I have an Asus laptop with Windows 8 64-Bit on it and I uninstalled AsusDVD after having some issues with it. After I did this my laptop no longer allowed me to play DVDs. Despite having Windows Media Player, which I know plays DVDs since I have it on my desktop.

Is there a way that I can change some settings to use Windows Media Player? When I open "Autoplay" Windows Media Player is not an option to play it on and there isn't anything else on my laptop that can play it. I tried a few different free DVD players, but none were able to play them for some reason.

How I can get Windows Media Player to play DVDs or suggest a free software that I can download that will play DVDs?

Windows 8.1 Reporting Numerous Malicious Websites

Nov 11, 2013

Whatever website I open (Yahoo, Dogpile, Mail.com, and yes even Techguy.org), my Windows 8.1 is reporting dozens of malicious websites being accessed in the range of 74.120.16.xx,xx,xx,xx, etc. Tracing one of these addresses reports that it is a Honey Pot. How can I stop Techguy.org and others from sending me these malicious intrusions, or how can I stop Windows 8.1 from filling the screen with these malicious website reports. (And Techguy.org continues to send these malicious intrusions throughout my session, even as I write this complaint.) I have set security from Medium-high to Medium which seems to be the lowest setting. I am using the Chrome browser. I stopped using the built-in Explorer 11 because I can no longer get my on-line college course assignments or my Walgreens photos, but the malicious reports keep coming. I don't want to abandon Windows 8.1.

Browsers/Mail :: Windows 8 - Certain Websites Don't Load - Restart Required

Jun 11, 2013

When I start my computer (which is running win 8), yahoo messenger won't sign in, and certain websites won't load for me for about 10-15 minutes. So it's just for certain websites, and the yahoo messenger client. Skype and 90% of the websites load with no problems whatsoever. And it only happens after i turn on my machine, or after a restart.

The problem persists no matter what browsers i use. When i ping those websites, I get replies from them, everything looks just fine, but they just won't load. After 10-15 minutes, they just fire up, all at once and i get no problems whatsoever. It's not a problem with the internet connection, as I got another windows running machine, an iPad, and my gf's Mac, and none of them are experiencing this issue. Plus, it also happens when i'm using any other network from a different location.

I have flushed my dns, and have run antivirus solutions like dr. web, combofix and malwarebyes anti-malware, and still no joy. My windows updates are up to date.. Do you need any other info for a diagnostic?

Hardware Drivers :: Why Isn't Windows Displaying Updated System Information

Mar 26, 2014

My computer had 4GB of RAM and an Intel G2030 processor. It worked fine for my needs, but I'm a compulsive tinkerer. I have upgraded to 12GB of RAM (supposed to be 16, but one module of the 16GB kit I purchased was DOA) and to an Intel i5-3550S processor. These were done in two separate installs, and the computer seems to be running fine, as far as I can tell.

My problem is that the System Information screen doesn't seem to be updated with the new processor. It shows the RAM (11.9GB), but still shows the 2-core G2030 processor. When I go to the BIOS, however, it shows the i5-3550S. Is there something I need to do to get this to update? I'd like to be sure that the computer recognizes the new processor...

Hardware Drivers :: System Can't Find Windows 8 OS Unless Disconnect External HDD?

Feb 7, 2014

I have a new internal HDD. When I first put Windows 8 OS on it I needed to disconnect my External HDD because I was getting the error (don't quote this):

"Can't find operating system. Disconnect any drive that doesn't not have an operating system."

It booted fine when I disconnect the External HDD.

It stopped doing this until today. I need to disconnect it when IU reboot.

I believe I ejected the External by mistake and tha6t5 screwed everything up again.

I entered the BIOS and I don't see the External HDD there. Only my internal and my cd/dvd drive.It currently looks for an OSA on the cd/dvd first.

Browsers/Mail :: Windows 8 Home With IE 10 - Prevent User From Deleting Websites Visited

Sep 16, 2013

I have Windows 8 home with IE 10. I want to DISABLE selective browser history deletion (open history, right-click-delete certain websites). I don't have gpedit.msc but I believe it falls under the "Prevent User from deleting websites visited" or something along those lines. I found a registry key edit "CleanHistory" and I have changed the value back and forth from 0 and 1 but it still hasn't stopped me from being able to selectively delete. I found the registry key on multiple websites so I imagine it's supposed to work but it just isn't. User error, perhaps?

Hardware Drivers :: Windows 8 Disk Mirroring / EFI System And Recovery Partition

Aug 9, 2014

I have bought a new PC/Server to be used as a media server, I have 2 x 2TB disks installed which I believe I have mirrored.

See below screenshot.

From the reading and research I have done I don't believe if one disk was to fail the other one would work, I think I may need to mirror the EFI system Partition and Recovery Partition of which I'm not too sure how to do this?

Browsers/Mail :: Blocking Websites That Keep Opening

May 13, 2014

We bought a new computer for my granddaughter. Since non had Windows 7 on it, (which I know how to use). We had to buy one with Windows 8. Learning to find out how to remove All the ads and non needed programs has been an ongoing challenge. Right now she only wants to go to very few sites. but Ads along with false java download keep poping up on her browser even thou I tryed hunting down anything that might call them up

She has Mccaffee virus scan and regitpro (I think its called that , she is using pc at thistime so I cant check.)

Is there a way to block a url? These popups do not show up on my computer when I go to the same page as she is on. ITs like an online ad program it adds more ads to websites you visit that are not on the actual website.

Graphic Cards :: Text Distortion On Certain Websites

May 14, 2014

Apparently it started a few weeks ago and only on certain websites, certain letters look distorted and I can't figure out why it happens or how to fix it- at first I thought it had to do with the AMD 14.x drivers but it still happens with an Nvidia card in it and I'm using a BenQ GL2450HM and there doesn't seem to be any issues found about it. I also disabled hardware acceleration in the browsers and it doesn't seem to be any different and also tried HDMI and DVI.

I currently use 125% text scale in Windows, tried it at 100% and still occurs but at certain zoom it gets worse.

This is most noticeable on Battlelog, notice purple-green blending around the words "awful smell" and orange around the letter I.

Browsers/Mail :: Win 8.1 - How To View Websites And Links

Nov 12, 2013

So upgraded to 8.1 from 8.0 in the hope it was more user friendly but no evidence so far but that's not my issue...now when I'm in Internet Explorer if I click on a link or even a webpage...it takes me to a blank screen that tells me to 'check the link'....if I refresh nothing happens but if I go back to the original link or web icon and try again it loads the page (sometimes takes a couple of goes to do it)...also it keeps asking me to 'login' to frequently used things like facebook and my Hotmail account which it never did in the past....when using 8.0 it was all good but nothing but trouble in 8.1.
