  1. PC crashing on any other version of Windows 10 except 1511


    This issue started a few months back when I was using my laptop and it randomly froze. I was using 1903 back then which was installed on my SSD card. I forcefully powered it down using the power button and on restarting it it would freeze again after a few minutes of use and it would keep doing this over and over again. I tried recovering to a previous version but it would still go back to freezing after a short period of time. I eventually gave up and took it to a local repair store and he told me the problem was the SSD card so he got rid of it and reinstalled Windows(1803) on the HDD drive. When I took it back I tried to update it to 2004 but the same freezing problem came back shortly after the update. So I took it back to the repair shop and he installed Windows 1511 and he also disabled the GPU(gtx 970m). I tried to update that version to 2004 again but this time my laptop would freeze at 75% installation and I would have to shut it down and it would revert to 1511. Now I've been using it with Windows 1511 for a few months but its super buggy and doesn't support a lot of features and apps so it's really frustrating for me so I tried to download a copy of Windows 1803 and I installed it afresh today. It installed successfully but it felt much more laggy than it usually is but I assumed it was because I was updating the drivers. And after a few hours of updating the drivers, it went back to completely freezing. So currently pc only seems to work with Windows 1511 and I don't know what to do about this issue. Any advice would be appreciated. Laptop specs: Alienware 15r2 i7-6700k 8gb ddr4

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. HD 3850 AGP Code 43 Error on Windows 10 Anniversary Headache!!!

    If the Version your using is still later than ver 1511 its designed not to work with AGP ( any AGP Support Removed )
    and i do not know of any hack that will enable it to work

    have you dug out that SSD and backed up your data and files that you need
    That's the 1st Important Step.

    Once you have done that you can wipe the drive and Reinstall
    Version 1511 Build 10.0.10586
    Then your in the Position of
    I Would then Suggest you Lock it Down " No Updates no upgrading" and therefore no resumption of this Problem ( You might have to stop it going online )

    Not Perfect but you end up with your System Running a Version of Win 10 ( as you must want ).

    Ps once you get it working again as you want Image the Drive for Back up and restore.
    Store back up off the PC

    PC crashing on any other version of Windows 10 except 1511

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
