    Windows 10 BSOD

    Swaffy replied to nJoy.'s topic in Windows

    Strangely that particular BSOD is known more for GPU driver issues or even a poorly seated GPU, although your BSOD screenshot shows its something to do with filesystem. when you reinstalled windows did you install sata drivers relevant to your motherboard or did you leave it to the default windows drivers.

    https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_insert_into_select.asp so something like : INSERT INTO table2 SELECT 'C' as Col1, col2, col3 FROM table1 WHERE condition;

    Office 365 has Exchange in the cloud, very configurable but its maintained by MS and can very rarely have bugs and downtime that you have no control over. Exchange server installed locally is more for the use of large corporations or companies who have strict security needs and want complete control over their email environment. There are also licensing differences too, Office365 can be paid monthly / annually and can expand/contract as the company does where as Exch server is a one off (large) purchase with possible extra licenses bought down the line if the company grows. There are other advantages/disadvantages too like connectivity, Office365 is available worldwide, Exchange is upto the company to setup and maintain and keep secure. It really depends what career path your going down, if you want to go for all your MS certifications then yes I would go for it.

    I would first start looking at a few books to get you going, amazon or even your local bookstore would be a good choice. Personally I use an online training provider that covers multiple subjects, link below If you even just have some basic knowledge of C++/ Obj C/Java this is a good start. I would probably also recommend taking a look at some projects on stackoverflow or even codeproject, you never know someone may already have demo code that could help.

    Temporary fix is to use task manager and kill "Windows Shell Experience Host" don't worry it auto restarts. This should get start menu back up and running. Try this and see if it works for apps too.

    Unless you can setup some form of super raid array I would doubt it, same transfer speed as your internal drive (unless your rocking a 5400rpm)

    I had an old Lenovo laptop with a small 16gb M.2 for caching, I ditched the included software which was buggy as hell and set up readyboost to use it. So I can say yes readyboost does work but it really depends on the the cache hardware your using, a standard USB stick wont give you much of a boost so you really have to go for either a highspeed USB3 stick, or other similar fast memory card to really get the benefit. Plus the only other caveat is you dont get to choose which files get cached,if you play GTA5 enough and it can see the same file being accessed a lot you may get some good results, otherwise it'll just be used to cache OS objects.

    Firstly how long have you waited while the black screen with cursor is shown, its possible that something is still being installed at that time and if your assuming the worst and hitting the reset button premature its never going to complete. Secondly there have been known issues with the Nvidia driver supplied by Windows update, try if you can to install the driver from the Nvidia website instead. I would suggest getting everything running and windows updated using the onboard GPU first, then installing the Nvidia GPU and installing drivers.

    Really sounds like a hardware issue, first stop as soundsblastdj suggested would be pull the GPU, maybe even run a memory test, have you overclocked the CPU, i would even suggest checking if you have the latest BIOS for the MB. If you cant solve this with hardware tinkering what version of Win10 are you trying to install, maybe try an earlier version, then upgrade after, hell you could probably even get a copy of Win7 to try then upgrade just to rule out any software incompatibility.

    Glad to be of assistance

    As the reg key is correct then yes go for the reset, probably the only way to get back to a good clean working system.

    Check the registry key this has probably been changed. This will set explorer back as your default startup not command prompt.
  13. Swaffy
    Did you try the commands in command prompt? The registry entry to check is:- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell if this is not explorer.exe then change it back so it is. Hopefully you can get in regedit from the command prompt.
  14. Swaffy
    You could type into command prompt Explorer.exe or even try exit, failing that as CTRL ALT DEL works open taskmanager and click file-run new task-explorer.exe Sounds like something has changed your default start program, will add registry entry here shortly...

    I agree with the 'What about everyone else", surely when they had to sign in at security it would have been mentioned about filming stuff. Feel sorry for the dad that such a simple mistake cost him his job.
