[pearman02]

I'f you have just built a new p.c and have two hard drives one ssd for the o.s and one hdd for storage do you need to install windows on both or just the ssd. How would it work???

[ab37z]

@ps3pitos - Yes. I have that problem. I pressed the Caps Lock key and it's hopeless.

[uphill248]

HI, CAN I CHECK IN THE BIOS TO SEE IF MY PROCESSOR HAS BEEN OVERCLOCKED?? PLEASE HELP.

[kristjanjul]

[hyperdude144]

@kristjanjul Ok, i'm not the expert but....Maybe you didn't connect the hard drive properly....you should check the connector.

[kristjanjul]

ok this is my first boot up with my new custom pc and and press F2 and now I have the reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press key_ ...I tried to press ctrl-alt-delete but it only took me to the same place again and so did the restart buttom, please help!

[onafetsid]

Well i also have a old hard drive with windows xp on, when i turned on my comp it did go directly to a kind of crappy windows design... like it would be for windows 95!

U have any idea of why? PLease reply and sry for my english!

[omarbon23]

what is overclock??

[hyperdude144]

@omarbon23 It's making your processor faster. It's quite dangerous, because a faster processor creates more heat-which means the computer may be damaged....good if you want to run a high-end game, though.

[omarbon23]

yeah how yuh recodr this.??

camera??

its not a computer application like camstudio or camstasia..,,

how do you do this kind of recording..??

[izyehboyNGU]

[metalliholic]

If im buying a new mobo to replace my old one and i already have windows on my Hard drive, do i still have to reinstall windows or run the boot disk?

[Mindbitesdotcom]

@metalliholic It would be highly recommended that you reinstall your OS as you are changing a very substantial piece of hardware. Windows likely wouldn't load anyway with such a major hardware change detected.

[skaterguy1423]

@metalliholic you have to reinstall...i kept getting blue screens on the boot screen...

[TheAsi10000]

mind man i have a problem when i switch on my cpu is working but monitor dont display wht i do plz help me

[Mindbitesdotcom]

Either your monitor is dead or your graphics card is dead. You'll need to replace whatever is broken.

[pcfix411]

I dont know what comes to mind here but good video.

[arbri135]

hey man hi i have a pc and when i start it pc shows this f***ing bios plzz tell me if i can hide it or make it to not show anymore

[Mindbitesdotcom]

It shouldn't show by default unless there is something wrong with your machine, usually if a fan isn't working properly and the processor is in danger of overheating. If you see this every time you boot without any problems getting to your desktop and working like normally look around for BIOS settings that would disable booting to the BIOS.

[tmzaa]

i own a schools laptop, the bios settings are locked. How can I change the settings?

[Mindbitesdotcom]

It is either your laptop, in which case you should know the password. Or it is the schools laptop, in which case the schools IT department would know.

[rudoman22]

look from this other video i tried using the manager "msconfig" from the "run" program to disable limewire on my startup, to bad my computer looks all retro and is only booting up with one system program. so i have no sound or anything running, and it cant be changed... even though i put it back to its original start up option.. any help please? if i wasnt clear ill go more into detail if you reply

[Mindbitesdotcom]

Sounds like you might be having some driver problems. Everything you do in msconfig can be undone by re-checking the box. I don't know what "all retro" means unless you mean like 8-bit color mode in which case you very likely have some serious hardware problem or you have no video or sound drivers.

[rudoman22]

not all is gone retro style, only the windows are classic style, but then again when you said everythen can be re-checked. it does nothing. it stays the same, and in the startup, there is only one windows program in there now... nothing else. im afraid to turn it off to do any more damage. Is there any other way to fix this either than msconfig?

[Mindbitesdotcom]

Whatever you did wasn't done through msconfig then. Having Limewire means you are a prime candidate for having a virus on your machine and that may be causing your problems.

[rudoman22]

hm, well i got it fixed from a computer store. im not messing with it any more though haha

[Mindbitesdotcom]

Well I do hope that you learned something and that you're not too scared to try again soon!

[rudoman22]

lol

[xtremestunt]

thanks, this helped,

by the way, how did you record that? wouldn't you have to be on ur desktop to record?!

[Mindbitesdotcom]

Running the display through a capture card. Same way you would record something off an 360 or PS3.

[deccyd94]

hey

why do people ave 2 hdd

[Mindbitesdotcom]

People use 2 hard drives for several reasons.

The most common being just to increase storage.

More advanced users will use 2 hard drives that are redundant of each other as a back up in case one fails. Or so that they can decrease load times, although the latter isn't very common these days as people who want that kind of speed are getting solid state drives.

never new about pause break thx mate now i know 5 starts

[Mindbitesdotcom]

So glad you learned something new!
