Hi, everyone, I speak from Brazil (sorry for my english) I almost did not find anything about this software Terabyte Drive Image Backup and Restore (I have looked for "independent" review sites, even using Mojeek Search, DuckDuckGo, apart from Google and Bing, of course, so tired).

This is a very new build, from October, and I just finally have time to address this issue. Windows 10's About specs, Task Manager's Memory Performance, and Resource Monitor, all show that I have 48GB of RAM installed -- but in actuality, I have 64GB. My BIOS has never shown a problem with seeing all 4 dimms, 64GB total. The Command Center for my mobo that I can run from Windows, also sees all 4...

Hello. I've been dealing with random freezes on my PC for just over a month now. At the moment, it happens about every 3-4 days, though initially it was about once a week or so (first 3 times: Nov 9th, 17th, 26th). While the first handful of freezes were during idling, it has since begun happening during use (I ran some videos on repeat for a few days when not using the PC to see if it only...

Well, this is a real head scratcher... While I know that you really should do a completely clean installation when upgrading your motherboard, I was going from a pretty recent Asus mobo and Intel CPU to a newer one so I thought I would see how it goes in case I could save myself the huge amount of time it will take me to completely rebuild and reconfigure everything on my Win10 x64 system (I...

Hey! After a recent Windows 10 update to my PC, close to everything on my computer have two blue arrows icons on it, which is "compress content to save disk space" as far as I found out. I didn't even know this was a thing, but now it has been set as default on my computer! I managed to turn it off using CMD with a tutorial online but this just stops all new files to have this as default. I...

Based on my experience with Windows 10, _if your main storage is a HD_, here are a few tips that you may find useful for improving the performance of your system: - The HD seems the main bottleneck of a PC (not applicable is your system runs off an SSD). During periods of intensive HD operations the PC will become less responsive. These periods occur very often by default on Windows 10, for...

Hi, I'll try to keep this short. I have an Acer Nitro 791g which came with an Atheros chip, QCa61X4 (NFA344). This system is 3.5 years old now. I'm currently running Windows 10 1809. I believe around 2 years into buying it the bluetooth module would occasionally stop working with a yellow exclamation under device manager with an error code 45 stating the device could not be started.
