hey,

and i did a stupid thing

i went to control panel (win8) > and to system> advanced system > enviroment something (i cant see the full name now sorry)

and changed the all location to another drive,

now i cant open it again, i actually cant open anything...

idk how to fix it.

Usually to go into safe mode you just press F8 while booting, it might vary, if you're lucky you could restore to an older point, if not, reisntall.

F8 while booting. Simple Google would have found that for you and it's been the same way since at least Windows 7. If that doesn't work, you need to reinstall, whether you like it or not.

I installed windows multiple times, even dfferent versions of it on my pc, and I never needed to reinstall motherboard drivers. Only my gpu drivers. Try reinstalling corsair link. And in case you really need your motherboard's rivers, go to the manufacturer's website and download the ones for your precise motherboard... are you telling me you have a liquid cooler and corsair link capable hardware and yet you don't know what motherboard you bought?

 

-eit- btw I just found out what you did wong in the first place... you moved the TEMP folder to another drive! In the future, leave TEMP and TMP alone if you don't know what you're doing. Moving one of those is pretty much as bad as moving win32...

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨
