I already ran a Partition magic Unix-based boot CD on it. No problem at all.

I'll try Safe Mode out of mere curiosity and report back.

Not surprisingly, Safe Mode didn't...

I'm not trying to pass the buck. But that's the 4th HP rig I'm forcibly converting to Win 10 + SSD, and it would have been nice to learn something new out of that failure.

A day without learning...

Still, I would be very interested in getting an explanation as to how devices ' pointers could work seamlessly but not clicks. Or how using the other device could always restore usability to the...

Hi dalchina,


The KBD test was successful in the sense that all keys registered OK. Granted, some only after having to be pressed one or more times. I ran the test 3 times and problematic keys...

Hello there,

I installed a clean version of Win 10 Pro 1909 on a HP laptop EliteBook 8770W. At the same time, I replaced the HDD with a new Samsung EVO 860 SSD. Most drivers came with Win 10, the...

Since you can access CORE-I7-950 using \\CORE-I7-950, you don't really need to see it under Network. You can create shortcuts (a.k.a. map network drives) to its shares (One shortcut per share).
...

Could you be more explicit?

Thank you.

Did you try Homegroup?

Oops, I forgot file and printer sharing:
Is your network of type private?
Is network discovery ON?
Is the Server service running?
Command prompt window / Type NET START
If you see SERVER in...

Don't use \\. Just the IP address, and if it's the right one it should open the HDD login page.

Meanwhile, you can try creating shortcuts to your shares on the HDD. If it works, you can always...

That's quite possible, since I see nothing wrong with your computer NetBIOS names. Service is running and each computer can ping each other using their names. Moreover, you can access your computers...

I'm assuming all of the above was run on the new computer. True?



So, you can see the drive (confirmed by your screenshot), but it doesn't expand upon clicking. Right?

What happens after...

You're not using the Homegroup. Right?

Are all 3 computers on the same workgroup (System Properties / Computer name tab)?

On each computer, open a command window and PING the other 2 using...

You are looking at the network using CORE-I7-950. Right?

Which one is missing of:
\\CORE-I7-3930K
\\CORE-I7-950
\\SATELLITE-U840W

Default, but you should override it and select NetBIOS over TCP/IP

Netview results demonstrate your computer are seen on the network AFAIK. So what is the missing computer? Is it missing in File...

Homegroup is local, so it only means your ISP is not handling IPV6.

Let's go back to basics, then. Open a command prompt window and type
IPCONFIG /ALL >C:\Ipconfig.txt
NET VIEW >C:\Netview.txt...

What are you using: IPV4 or IPV6?

Homegroup requires IPV6.

Are the dancing pink elephants calling for drinks? :drink:

And, seriously, never use anything less than WPA if you can't use WPA2

I don't know all the evils this bloody Creators Update brought onto us.

Open a command prompt windows and type IPCONFIG /all and check if NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled for your active adapter.

You may be right there. So in such case it would be a matter of changing the adapter driver Creators selected for you. Try to use the old one if you can.

Because there is no way I know of to...

So you see, according to your screenshot, you have no control at all over the refresh rate. Which was to be expected anyway.

Did you try changing your resolution by selecting it from the drop down...

Check the seating of all cards, too. And the memory. And ....

Just remove the thing and put it back (properly :sarc:)

At first glance: the 30Hz refresh rate for 1920x1080 is for Interlaced video, which is almost certainly not what you're using, but would be equivalent to a 60Hz frequency.

Interlaced video is a...

Which is the one of 1920x1080 or 3840x2160 resolutions Windows is setting the refresh rate to? Or both?

Just to confirm. Please post a screenshot after clicking in Desktop - > Display Settings ->...

Good to know. How did you expect us to guess that's was?



Please explain how you switch and how to you find the refresh rate.
