AKBliv010: Thanks for your quick reply. 1. I don't wish to partition the hard disk drive using external third party applications. I intend using the default Disk Management tool that has the ability of shrinking volume, extend partition, create partition and also format partition. According to online tutorials, if done properly, I don't need to backup my files as the C: hard drive will not be formatted. 2. The system is currently off due to pathetic power in my area, as soon as power is restored, I'll confirm and upload screenshot for advise. 3. I don't have the original charger that was first tested with the PC at the point of purchase that latter stopped charging the PC, but I remember that the output voltage was 18.5V. The capacity of the charger I'm using currently with it are as follow; INPUT: 100-240V ~ 1.5A(1.5A) 50-60Hz OUTPUT: 19V(19V) --- 4.74A(4.74A) - O + 90W |

bdavis: Thanks for your input. 1. The system didn't come pre-installed with a windows 8.1 pro operating system. It came with windows 7, Ultimate I think. Though, I'll backup my files and driver folder as you and the poster before advised. 2. Please, what do I need to look for? |

Hello skydancer and anyone who can help. I recently replaced my mother board and I have 2 problems. First the wifi doesn't connect anymore, it sees the network but for some reason it does not connect. I have updated the drivers using a cable connection but it's still not working. Secondly, it's now telling me activate windows. My laptop is a year old and the OS is originalso and even after upgrading to win 10 I never had issues. Please help me. Thanks |

Emmaesty: Actually on that report you have Windows update to never install drivers. I think that's your issue. Allow driver updates. |

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by Emmaesty(f): 12:16pm On Sep 01, 2016 |
AKBliv010:Infinix hot 2. My flash drive works on the system but most phones don't |
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by AKBliv010(m): 12:38pm On Sep 01, 2016 |
Emmaesty: Then I suspect you need to install the drivers for the Infinix Hot 2. Download the drivers from the link below https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5gP1lXvmMe5aUNndk9mQzRKTkU Then watch this video for installation process. Hope it helps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWqtq8aV3m4 |

bdavis: Thanks brother. I thought it was inverter board problem, just to discover the computer (a new generation hp) doesn't have an inverter board like the likes of DV6. |
