Went to the C drive and added all the different things like windows, prog' files etc. All up it came to about 83Gb. Windows being 30.6Gb. Looking at disk space it says 13.8 of 111 empty. That makes 97.2Gb. Not the 83Gb. No doubt there are hidden files and some memory set aside. Does this sound...

One of my PCs keeps waking up from standby, with no input from me. I have set things so that the (home) network and devices (keyboard/mouse) should not do this, but I still have the problem. I ran this in a CMD window powercfg -lastwake and got the result in the screenshot. I don't necessarily want to turn this kind of update (though Windows Media update could certainly be removed),...

Hello- Windows Task Scheduler will not open most of the time & getting worse. The newest messages I am getting has to do with the Microsoft Management Control (MMC) snap in problem. I have 2- older screen shots of what I saw initially. I may be able to get a shot of the newest, but what happens now is that the Task Scheduler will not close without using my Task Manager to end the program.

So I built the computer in my system specs last year. It was my first build. Prior to that all I did was upgrades to OEM computers and then my Bro gave me his PC which he built that I also upgraded. When I got done with my build which took me ten hours of carefully making sure everything was right, I booted it up. It scared the hell out of me because the computer cycled through a couple of boots...

Edit: Feel free to move this to Drivers sub-forum, as I just noticed it's probably more relevant there. *SOLVED:*Fixed the issue. It was just two registry entries in HKLM/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Class where there was a key named LowerFilters pointing to the old driver. After backing up the two entries, I deleted the corresponding LowerFilters keys and rebooted and the old filter...

I was using Windows 7 (with newest updates) normally. Then I decided to do two things. After those changes Windows went haywire very quickly. First, I did Disk Cleanup. It was strange that there was ~600 GB for temporary windows update files or something like that. So I tried to clean that up. But it didn't clean up 600 GB, so there might've been some statistical error on that. Anyway, I just...

I have an Acer Desktop PC. I remember someone once telling me on here that it was better to do smart scans on Anti Virus/Malware most of the time rather than full scans, as full scans cause a lot of wear and tear on the hard drive. This got me thinking what other things I could do to cause less wear and tear on my hard drive or even the whole pc. Generally I start up my pc mid morning and use...
