General Computer Support / bios update
« on: May 31, 2020, 07:29:57 am »
Attempting to upgrade Windows 10 Pro 64 bit, version 1709 to current version, I was advised that I needed to update my BIOS. I went to Gigabyte, the mfg. of my motherboard, and found updating my BIOS to be incomprehensible. I found a auto updater software called @bios, but it will not install. Help?

General Computer Support / BIOS Update
« on: October 10, 2017, 04:21:48 pm »
Running Win 7 Pro SP1, my programs load like snails without exception.
I've run Repair, more than once, so I'm speculating that my ancient BIOS might be the culprit: Award, v. F5 dated 2011.
I googled and found Gigabytes Tech. which refers to BiosPlusAgent for BIOS updates.
I paid my bucks, but have not heard a word for over two days. Getting a refund aside, can you recommend a source for
doing this update?
TIA

Feedback & Suggestions / Rescue or Recovery Disk
« on: November 20, 2015, 10:02:15 am »
Recently, I've had a spate of PC problems including start up, stalling at Windows Log On, stalling at Shut Down, resumption of Normal Start Up....stuck in Safe Mode.
Of course, there is a myriad of Rescue/Recovery Disks out there. But one constructed by Shane would be a world beater.
TIA,
Geometer

Does the task manager show them using a lot of cpu?
Does the event viewer show any information or errors about them?
Is it a lot or all programs or only certain ones?
