Thanks for all your views on this - I think I will try it but only perhaps go back to the 32 bit if I really have to use the PC quickly - of course once 64 bit is all installed and running and the...

Thanks for all your views on this - I think I will try it but only perhaps go back to the 32 bit if I really have to use the PC quickly - of course once 64 bit is all installed and running and the...
That is what has me a bit worried - - but I won't ever be using both 32 and 64 bit installations at the same time - it will be one or the other on the same motherboard - i.e. I would simply swap over...
That's what I was hoping.
I assume once you have an active installation, then whether you use 32 or 64 bit is very much up to you and does not affect the licence
This maybe a strange question but at the moment I have W10 32 bit working well on one of my machines. Also loaded on the machine are many other programmes which I use on a daily basis plus loads of...
I think I have got to the bottom of this - its when there is more than 4gb installed memory the "available memory" goes down to 2.99. When only the 4gb is installed (i.e. the stated max under 32 bit...
Well there's some black magic going on here - I ran the command as indicated and its showed 250mg used by the display - exactly what I thought - but when I returned to look at "system" the memory is...
Yes that's what I thought BUT - in the past I have had over 3.5 gig available from my 4 gig of installed RAM now on W10 I only have 2.9 - the hardware has not changed - only the OS!
Well not literally but since upgrading a Dell 755 to w10 (32 bit) I not only have 2.99 available memory out of the 4gb installed. Under W7 I had over 3.5 gig" so what has stolen my memory? Another...
Regular PDF readers cannot edit files - only display and print them - However there are more versatile programmes out there which can edit but they tend to be expensive - the best being Adobe...
All looks too complicated at the moment so will leave well alone - the disabling defrag did not help - the restore points I created yesterday have now gone and been replaced by an "automatic" point...
I had not noticed that - and don't know why the partitions are dynamic (can they be reverted to basic?) - they were created by the install when I first re-installed this hdd following a system...
Thanks again Ed - So actually no need to reinstall at the moment - its just don't have restore points but think I can live without those at the moment - however noticed something odd - The amount of...
Thanks Ed - I have now turned off the auto defrag to see if that makes a difference - I did notice the little reserved sector on the main HDD but thought nothing of it. Perhaps if I did another clean...
Not sure I understand - if I don't have any restore points how can this help?

Just had a read of the thread with that link - very interesting and make me wonder if the problem I have is due to the way the HDDs are configured.
I think my system boots from the second HDD...
Hi - no dual boot - on this machine - only W10 64bit - there are two physical drives laid out as four partitions.
I think I have set enough space but my restore points are all missing!

I have just done a clean install of W10 64 bit and as I loaded drivers for old printers and my soundcard I created restore points for the c: drive so if I had issues I could unwind. Now I discover...
Hi - have done that now and its is private - the trouble shooter said there was missing protocol and then someone else told me it may be related to a "winsock" problem so tried resetting that this...
I have a small network with 5 pcs on it - until last week everything was working fine but after a disaster I had to reinstall the OS (w10 pro 64bit) on one of the machines and since then have had a...
No - previously I had 32 bit so did not try updating with the wrong bit version - its just that something has obviously one wrong with the PC - I did have a load of malware issues shortly before and...
Yes I did downloaded the latest version- but the report was saying something about the wrong location - cant remember exactly what - anyway I have now installed 64 bit version and all working well -...
Well I gave it a go and if failed saying it could not find the correct sector (or the current installation was not in the correct place - cant remember which) so I have given up on a repair and am...
Can I do the in place upgrade from the w10 ISO DVD from which I installed W10? - the video only mentions using the iso file but I don't have a means of mounting an ISO.
