I've had dual-boot systems setup in the past, but probably not in ten years or more. I know some things have changed and Windows has definitely become more friendly towards these setups. I have a...

I've decided on a minor upgrade for my aging gaming rig that's almost six years old. It's based on an Asus Maximus IX Hero mobo with an i7-7700K 4.2 GHz Quad-Core Processor, 16GB of DDR4-3200 RAM and...

That did the trick. Odd, deleting the problem partition has always worked for me in the past and I guess I've just never needed to use Clean before. Everything is perfect now. Hopefully, I'll...

I ordered a WD Purple 4TB drive to use as the main storage drive in my security camera server but I cannot seem to get it setup properly. I installed it in an external USB caddy I have on another...

Excellent! I'll look into that.

Thank you.

First of all, I want to be clear that I'm not asking about saving states or snapshots. I'm asking if there's a way to save, or export an actual virtual machine without having to create it from...

Thanks again. I'll give it a try.

This particular drive is a 10+ year-old, 120GB 5400RPM laptop HDD, and probably isn't worth worrying about, but the tool will come in handy in the future.

Thanks for the quick response. I didn't think it would hurt it, but I didn't want to make matters worse. I think the drive is going.

When I tried to boot the laptop, it says no OS is found, check...

I have an old Windows 7 laptop that has been acting up. I want to take its boot drive and hook it up to my main Windows 10 desktop via USB just to explore the drive and see if it appears to have data...

Silly me! I just remembered that my wife purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 & Premiere Elements a couple of years ago. I'm certain that it will be able to do the simple things I want to do,...

I used to use Windows Movie Maker, and its successively renamed iterations, to crop, edit, and stitch videos together. Occasionally, I would stitch together a bunch of photos and add a tune and make...

Does anyone know why the Windows startup sound, or the volume slider ding would just suddenly stop?

I have a gaming build that's about two-years-old. It's based around an Asus Maximus IX Hero...

I have 16GB of RAM currently.

I'm not aware of any NVMe SSDs that are currently above the M.2 PCIe Gen 3.0 X4 standard. I'm not sure about PCIe adapters, but my motherboard is capable of running M.2 PCIe Gen 3.0 X4 drives in one...

I guess that's true. I don't seem to have a lot of disk intensive games though. Still, it would boot faster and I guess I'd see a little day-to-day improvement. It's only $40, but I'd be losing SATA...

I saw that the 256GB Samsung SM961 VNME SSD is available for $40 right now and was considering picking it up. Even at that cheap price, I'm not certain I'll get much benefit from it. I currently have...

I downloaded a large RetroPie image for my Raspberry Pi. It's an image with the system already loaded and 128GB of ROMs, all ready to go. Anyway, I was using 7-Zip. Usually, I just grab the file I...

I've downloaded a 128GB image that I plan to put on an SD card. It is compressed using rar. I'm attempting to move the file from the rar one of my spare drives but it won't decompress properly. I...

Well, I saw another post from someone with a similar problem, and someone suggested to them to logout, then try to install. I logged out, pressed Get on my app, then it had me log back in and my...

I just recently purchased a new XBox Wireless Controller, the Bluetooth version, for use with my RetroPie setup, as well as my Windows 10 gaming rig. One of the first things I'm supposed to do is...

Thanks for the input. I've already tried that. As a matter of fact, I disabled Fast Boot and increased my Post Boot Delay Time from 3 to 10 seconds because someone thought my computer may be booting...

I've been having constant problems with my new Sound BlasterX AE-5 soundcard not being consistently recognized at boot. It seems it is extremely similar to the issue that the older Sound Blaster Z...

I was finally able to get it going. It was a combination of a bad 1394 cable and a burnt out 1394 port on my old camcorder. A friend let me borrow his old one and I've been importing video.

Because virtual systems get no access to real hardware, so I wouldn't be able to import my videos by FireWire.

Sounds good. I'm seeing that I'll need to slipstream SATA drivers into my XP install media to get it to see the SSD as well. I'll get that going tomorrow but it doesn't sound too complicated. I'll...
