  1. Can I fix my PC by installing windows on a 2nd drive?


    Last week I got a critical_process_died boot error loop on my pc, and every solution ive tried hasn't worked. The only option left I wanted to try was resetting/reinstalling Windows, but it wont let me do that either. I have a 1tb SSD and a 2tb hard drive. My SSD contains the OS and all of my personal files, which I want to keep, but using a USB with windows installation media won't let me reinstall on the SSD without formatting it I assume. Could I use the installation media to install on my hard drive instead so I can use Windows again? The hard drive only contains games which I can just red

    :)

  4. Can I fix my PC by installing windows on a 2nd drive?

    Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.
