  1. Activation of Windows10; after HD Change


    I have an 8 yr old Dell Laptop that was using Windows 10 when I received it. The hard drive went out in it and I have one arriving in about a week. I went through the Dell website to identify the specifications on the laptop as well the HD. It was originally installed with Windows 8 and upgraded to 10. Dell only offers the download for the original operating system that was installed. So. Installing 8 then upgrade to 10.First question? When I opened it the motherboard and hardware was original and I'm only changing the HD. What I've read is for an OEM activation the laptop must have the origin

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    HD VDECK

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand the inconvenience you are facing currently.

    I would appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

    What happens when you try to launch the app?

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps:

    Method 1: Uninstall and reinstall HD VDeck
    Audio Panel App

    Step 1: Uninstall the audio panel App

    • Press Windows key + X.
    • Click on Programs & Features.
    • Look for ‘HD VDeck Audio Panel App’ from the list.
    • Right click on the App and click on Uninstall.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the Uninstall.
    Step 2: Install the HD VDeck Audio Panel App

    I suggest you to go to the computer manufacturer website and download and install the app.

    Note: If issue still persist proceed with Method 2.

    Method 2: Perform a System Restore

    I suggest you to perform a System Restore and check if the app works. Refer to the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + X.
    • Click on System and then click on Advanced System Settings.
    • Click on System Protection tab and then click on
      System Restore
      .
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the System Restore to the date prior to the issue.
    • Check if issue persists.
    Important: The System Restore restores the computer back to an earlier point in time, called a restore point. System Restore doesn’t change your personal files, but it might remove recently installed apps and drivers and
    also reset the recently changed settings on the computer.

    Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.
