General Computer Support / partition wizard software gives 1mb unallocated spaces in my hdd . How to fix

« on: December 09, 2022, 04:14:45 am »

Hi, Partition wizard by minitools shows a 1mb unalloacted space in my total 465 gb hdd. This small partition shows, when I reinstall after formatting. This could not be deleted , formatted to or it does not allow anything on this . The space is 0 as seen .
This does not show in disk management or using diskpart commands.
Can I safely delete using the partition wizard .Will it affect in my booting. As this is out of c: or D: , where 100 mb is taken by the system in the C: partition when we allot the partition size during reinstall.
Why this is not shown in disk management or disk part commands
Will deleting this , affect my booting process
can i add this to my hdd storage .
I think that this unallocated space is giving trouble in giving system errors
please
N B: it shows 2 partitions on unallocated in logic on closer look.

General Computer Support / which do I prefer company or assembled windows 10 pro system.

« on: October 11, 2022, 06:25:12 pm »

Hi, I am thinking of buying windows 10 for all practical purposes.
Company sells hardware with os is one way of doing it.
prefered parts and then assembling and install Os is another way of doing it.
For windows 7 , I have chosen the second way.
The dvd was there to install with key.
But Now, there is no dvd . just a key and then installation of OS.
So, I think companies made pcs with windows will be having compatible hardware , like main parts, cpu,motherboard,ram,graphics card, audio system,smps,dvd drives for specific hard disk size.
The OS preinstalled like windows pro 10 64 bit.
On the other hand, our own choice of these products and obtaining key and then install OS iso.
Here we can be choosy about the spare parts brand lke intel chip, inter processors , prefered cabinet,prefered sound system video card etc.
plese also say, will there be so much cost between home and pro version
Expecting a detailed reply

Hi,
I forgot the website name in england that tests your mem stick capacity with your mother board compatibility. It gives the present ram and how much you could add with the motherboard you have.
I think that this website was recommended by Boggins in my posts queries.
I could not locate the post to know the website.

General Computer Support / How do I just add service pack 1 to my windows install media

« on: March 24, 2022, 08:25:04 pm »

Hi,
Is there any easy way of just adding the service pack 1 windows 7 installation media usb.
I know that there exist some software to do that. But can I do it without any software like command prompt etc.
I tried windows update offline installer before 14.1.2020 when Msoft stopped support to win 7.
But it created problem for me, with some access denied error and updates error.
Probably, any update needs service pack 1, as a pre requisite , I suppose,
So, Is there any easy way of slipstreaming the service pack 1 only in the installation media.

General Computer Support / How boot environment fixes MBr and rebuild bcd in already installed pc

« on: March 20, 2022, 08:30:23 pm »

Hi,
 When your boot process is corrupted, you are given suggestion like using fixmbr, rebuildbcd etc to correct the error. I know that it is startup repair options.
Microsoft also gives the fixmbr and rebuildbcd commands as a workaround this problem . Microsoft says to use the install media or pre installed startup repairs to use those commands.
When we boot via installation media and access the repair the computer and go to command prompt, the directory it shows, is x:\source , which means that we are using the files in the installation media. By evoking these commands, how the boot folder in the reserved drive would get corrected. Please tell.
Sometimes, there may arise situation, when F8 on boot does not lilst Repair this computer. If the option is not there, microsoft says this is because there is no pre installed start up repairs files installed in the system. How could it be . Is it not a windows install process automatically at the time of installation?
So, does it not suggest that if you get the repair option in the advanced boot menu, then you are invoking these commands, or the system gets the command from the windows reserved partition?
So, my query above,
please give a detailed reply

General Computer Support / are my presumptions correct?

« on: August 14, 2021, 10:17:22 pm »

Hi, I have a dlink 2730u indian model wifi modem router, that supports wifi and it is called N150 , meaning that its speed is 150mbps on wifi.
I get my wifi access thro the lan ethernet connection on wifi support devices.
My presumption:
1. ISP has bandwidth control on the broadband speed with the plan that I select.
2. The router has been connecting the wifi devices  on the access point provided in the  router.
3. Eventhough, the ISP provide access point via the ethernet connection by telephonic wire , he has no control over the wifi speed accessed  with my router.
4. I have a 2.4 ghz speed router, which supports minium speed , and If i change the router to a 5ghz speed router, then i could get more speed on my wifi devices, the dual wifi router would give better speed and area coverage.
5. The ISP has no say on the speed of the wifi and it is entirely controlled by the router wifi power.
Please say, what I have presumed are correct , point by point, so that i will buy a new router that supports 5ghz speed

« on: July 23, 2020, 07:50:06 pm »

Hi, If i have corrupted user profile, then there is a possibility of system collpse, including bsod and other kernel errors.
Which repair item in the tool will repair the user profile to remove the bad clusters etc.
just creating and copying, does not seem to fix this corrupted profile.
i do not know, if the correction has been done, without any indication.
if suppose, this feature is not present, i would please reques Shane and boogins team to include this in the repair tool.
if such repair is already present, kindly say which item i have to select.
My OS almost collapse, could not even boot, as i found a alert in suing chkdsk /r, that windows has replaced bad clusters in user/ntuser.dat.i think ntuser.dat is personal comuter settings of the individual about windows behaviour

General Computer Support / command line batch file help from experts

« on: January 30, 2019, 05:19:15 am »

Hi, i experience sudden change in bb download and upload speeds.
The speed sites are full of redirects virus and unwanted popup of advt.
i tried one way for my router and it gives the status of the router in cmd quickly
 i need not log on to router to give uid and pw
But i want it in a form of batch file, in coding in which i am totally a newbie
The sequence i will explain
i will give it as command in english for easy understanding
go to cmd as administrator
issue command telnet x x x x
i will replace the x x x x with later
it will ask for user id: and it has to take admin as id without pausing
it will ask for password: and i will replace the pass word here with mine
it will go to dollar $ sign
you have to type "show status" without quotes and that should show me the result in desktop  and the user, i, have to close it.
i am asking the code, so that i could enable this bat file in task scheduler to report in intervals
Experts please
I think it is possible to achieve, as what i want is a kind of automation of some entries.
go to cmd as admin involves, may be tough. But experts would be able to give me code for this.
If suppose, if vb is favourite, then i would love to have it.
Quick reply if you please

General Computer Support / How to get rid of http redirects to suspicious sites

« on: November 03, 2018, 05:52:40 am »

Hi, whenever i click the link in ccleaner, for eg download, imgburn, download , and speedtest ookla site when pres using GO button, i am redirected to naganoadigei.com  :angry:to ultimate fake flipkart site, to login, or install java in fake java site,or flash player in fake adobe sites.
first of all, i want to know, whether the redirects are allowed by the site owners of these sites using their own programs to redirect to those sites or
is it because of third rogue party doing something in these genuine sites or
is it because of the Isp allowing those things voluntarily. pl let me know and also give me solution to completely get rid of this .
sometimes, it goes to the site one time or sometimes two times and the third click ultimately goes to the correct page of download or seeing the speed results.
may i have your views on this and solutions

General Computer Support / Are those settings correct? in network adapter

« on: June 04, 2018, 07:12:07 am »

Hi, I enclose there with the network adapter settings.Normallly these selected items are taken by a software, as otherwise, i have to take each setting picture separately as a jpg.
Ok, To fix the problem of internet light blinking during startup, along with dls light, i tried some changes in the default settings of the adapter. This is the latest available driver from realtek.com for my network adapter.
Still the problem is persisting, and i want you to check, if i have disabled or enabled correctly. Ofcourse, i made some changes to try to fix my problem.
For eg. some lan settings have been disabled like ipv6 etc..
Can i change the settings here. It is because, of ethernet port, that i am having the problem. ethernet port is connected to motherboard ethernet card, Manual checking of that port does not produce the problem and hence change in the network adapter settings.
I could easilly change those to default, but i have a doubt, that if those default settings are giving this problem, as the driver would be the fresh date whereas the device is of older one.
Please advisse how to go about from here.
are there any specific effects it would have on speed and other things in internet access like security flaw, please experts
