    Trying to install an antivirus on Windows 7 without internet


    Hello, I recently just revived a ten year old laptop with Windows 7. There were two accounts. One has a systems32 worm and the other has rebooted to 01/01/2001 and I get a “security certificate is expired” when I open Internet Explorer. It also says something similar when I open Firefox. I do not want to restore my the date to today, as I am afraid that it might risk letting in a virus. Even though I have wifi, I technically don’t have internet access because of the risk from the virus. I would like to install an antivirus program and update to Windows 10. How can I get protection on my laptop to prevent running into the system32 worm? Is there a good antivirus program that I install from a CD or any other external installers?

    :)

  2. 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.

    How do I install windows 10 without harming my windows 7?


    Here's what I suggest you to do:
    1. From Windows 7, download & Install Macrium Reflect Free. Connect one of your new 500GB HD and clone your current Windows 7 to it. Follow step 1,2,3 from the screen shot:

    1. Disconnect your current Windows 7 then boot up with the new cloned copy of Windows 7
    2. Upgrade it to Windows 10 so it will be fully activated.
    3. If you decide to keep Windows 10 then do a fresh install of Windows 10. If not, disconnect the 500GB HD containing Windows 10 then re-connect your Windows 7
    4. You are back to where it was before.
