I recently discovered that some mornings my home "server" needs to be manually powered back on. Looking in the event viewer there's clearly something logged, mentioning wininit.exe with a loopback address, but I'm not sure how to go about what is actually causing the system to power off. My best...

I touched upon my difficulties with this update in another thread, but since it wasn't relevant to the topic I figured it was best to just start a dedicated thread. *specification of PC in question is listed signature, line #1* Normally I wouldn't make a stink about an update not working, and...

Apologies in advance if this is more complex than I mean it to be... but I'm pretty stuck. Basically, I have a SFF low power computer at work that I use as a personal file server and to run some older proprietary apps. This machine runs Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and does not have a monitor...

Finally made the switch to an NVMe drive from a regular SATA-III SSD since the prices have come down, but I overlooked something.

I just recently noticed that my Core i7 860 is not reaching full turbo boost in Windows 7. Not sure why, because it worked for a number of years previously, and still works as expeted when dual booting to Windows XP. So I'm suspecting this is a Windows 7 software problem, rather than a bios or...

I have installed Windows 10 on my desktop PC. My question is: Does Windows 10 store any data in the UEFI or motherboard itself, and if yes, what kind of data? I'm asking this because I'm looking to format my system as completely and thoroughly as possible. How should one go about this?

I have a 900P installed in the PCIE16_X4 slot on my ASUS Prime Z370 A but Windows won't install there even though it recognizes the drive and loads the drivers during Windows install. It says it is not a bootable device. Has anyone been able to install the 900 P as a Windows boot drive?

OS=Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 build 7601 (6.1.7601) Ran into an issue on a coworker's laptop that's really driving me nuts. For some reason the Windows firewall is totally disabled and I cannot seem to get it, or it's dependencies, to start again. The computer has remotely-managed AV...

So, here’s the deal. When I was nine I received a Dell Inspiron 1545, and it worked wonderfully. Now I’m eighteen and I want to get into it again because I need a VM. So today I tried to get back into it and I don’t know the password at all. I can’t access anything through it and I’ve tried out...

This one's got me pretty stumped. Years ago I set my dad up with a mini ITX computer that ran Windows 7 64-bit and he never really had any issues with it, ever. More recently, though, he ran into a problem where any web browser would simply crash and I chalked it up to malware. For whatever...

Hi, I was thinking to get Lastpass but I saw that Lastpass' database has been hacked many times in the past so that's a big NO for me. What should I get that is very secure and provides good privacy? Also, is Bit Defender Total Security 2018 good nowadays? Looking to get a subscription...
