  1. Windows Reinstall


    Hi there,


    I have 2 drives on my pc a 120gb hd and 1kgb ssd, I wanted to completely wipe my PC and reinstall windows on to the bigger drive that it is not currently on.


    My problem is that when I reset the pc including removal of all files etc through built in windows recovery options, Windows seeks to just reinstall itself when the reset is done. I dont get to pic any install options or anything. Is there another way to do this where I can select to reinstall on the orher drive ?


    thanks.

    :)

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Windows Reinstall :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

    Reinstall Windows?

    You don't need to reinstall windows. Go to the device manager and remove uninstall the processor and motherboard drivers listed. When you start the system back up you should be able to re-install the new ones. I just changed my mobo/processor Friday, everything is fine.

    BTW I have seen some reviews that state practically no difference in using more than 2gb of ram.
