    Not enough disk space for Windows 10 upgrade

    This is the guide I used to upgrade my Windows tablet. My tablet only has a 32gb drive and had a large system restore partition that Windows 10 removed.

    quick time instaled

    Quicktime doesn't read .iso files. You'll need to fix the file association for that extension over to whatever CD/DVD burning software you use. WinRAR can open them, too.

    Installing Windows 8, please help me with these two questions :)

    You don't need at least 3.5GB of memory, but it can address it, whereas 32 bit can not.

    router as repeater

    I happen to own a router that does not have an option for being a repeater, so being incapable is not out of the question. There's always the option of installing a different firmware, such as DD-WRT, if your router is compatible, however. Look here, if that sounds like something that may...

    Change from Secondary to Primary

    If you have a second system, it could be done a lot easier than reinstalling. You could clone one drive over to the other.

    Home Network Questions.

    Don't turn off the firewall, just allow the exception through it for RDP. I have a home fileserver that I connect to daily over RDP and it's on a workgroup. Should work just fine, if that's what you're planning to do.

    Help please?? Desperate!

    It sounds like you've picked up some malware. Download Malwarebytes and see if it removes the software you installed. Any other help regarding spy software, you won't receive here.

    Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit trial

    You can download it here from official links, as found in this sticky right here on CF. It will install and work as a trial version without entering a valid product key, but you will eventually need to install one once the trial expires.

    SD card with OS systems?

    I've installed Ubuntu on a USB hard drive before. It's slow as molasses because the transfer speed isn't fast enough. It was functional, but you wouldn't want to do much more than surf the internet.

    Transfering OS to raid array?

    You can clone an existing OS installation from a single drive over to a RAID 0 array. I've personally done just that with an old Soyo KT600 Dragon Ultra, going from an IDE drive over to my SATA RAID 0 setup back in like 2003-2004ish. Set up the array and install the drivers within your...

    Slot 939 Quad Core?

    Ha, I'm such a cheap a$$, I'm still running a 7300GT because I don't do any gaming. /end hijack

    Help Me: Liquid Cooling Build

    Anyone ever try the Corsair kits? I thought they had a setup for a CPU and GPU, though I may just be losing my mind at this point. :D

    New Egg Vs Tigerdirrect

    I think they're about equal, but I order from Newegg more because I don't pay sales tax. Tigerdirect has retail stores in Illinois, so I have to pay tax on anything I order. Unless I go to their store for something, Newegg gets my order.

    I have this issue...

    I have a similar device (the Tigerdirect Ultra brand) that works very well. I've never had any issues and I've used it to clone several drives, both smaller and larger. I have a copy of Norton Ghost that I use, but Drive Image XML works pretty well, too. The bad thing about DI XML is that...

    Private home server

    Not too much, really. An old P4 with a RAID card would do it, though I suspect you'd want something a little better than that. I have a Supermicro X7SPA-HF running Server 2003 R2 that handles my file server needs just fine. I'm running 3 750GB drives in RAID5, for a total of 1.5TB of storage...

    Netbook making Eletrical type sound..

    My Toshiba does it, as well. I don't think it's anything to worry about.

    Watercooling help

    I have zero experience with them, but I know Corsair sells complete watercooling kits.

    AVG AntiVirus???

    I'm a fan of Microsoft Security Essentials, but Avast is supposed to be pretty good, also. MSE isn't resource intensive at all and when it's scanning, you don't even know it.
