Can I hardware bit by bit clone the C: from the P3 and install it in my P2 and once booted install the correct drivers?
Or will that cause damage to my...
Hello. My (once mighty) Pentium II MMX 450Mhz HDD apparently has failed. It booted to Windows 98SE splash screen and then said bad sectors detected. I rebooted and it said disk not found select boot. So I guess the main drive has failed again. The system drive is a WD Caviar SE 40GB model...
Hi. My new system has two USB 3.x ports and one USB 2.0 port on the front. The USB 2.0 port works but both the 3.x ports will light up my mouse and keyboard but will not work.
They seem to provide power but not function.
You may already have an idea what to do.
I'll add this info in case it...
I just did a fresh installation on a new SSD of Windows 7 Pro 64 from my purchased OEM system builder disk. I then changed the product key to the one that was orginally assigned to my system. Windows 7 will not update. I've tried checking manually and even setting to automatic. It won't...
After the great help here I swapped my 3930K for an E 1680v2 on my ASUS P9X79 Pro.
I also upgraded my 120mm AIO to a 240mm and added another 200MM fan.

This is a work computer running Adobe Premiere CS6 and 3ds Max so it...

Hi. For years I've been hardware cloning my systems C: once I get everything working so I can easily swap drives in case of a problem and I'm right back working again. I read about possible issues hardware cloning SSDs and thought I'd start a thread specifically about this.

I currently have 64GB RAM in my P9X79 Pro system. It is 1600Mhz. What is the max Ram capacity and speed I can use? I think it's 64GB and 2400MHz but not sure. I want to get the best out of it that I can
EDIT: and if I am changing the 3930k CPU to a Xeon do I have to use ECC RAM?
My system originally came with a 250GB SSD. I later hardware cloned it to a 500GB SSD and finally hardware cloned it to a 1TB SSD. When I hardware cloned it, it left unallocated space so I ended up adjusting the partition size with Acronis Disk Director 12. So now I have a system drive that...

Hi guys. I'm out of my league and looking for advice. I have an AMD Threadripper 3970x on order (on backorder actually) that I am getting for use with 3ds Max and v-ray. It will do long renders for days/weeks. It will not be overclocked. I am concerned about cooling. The nice Cyberpower guy...
I am wanting to order a system and my end goal is 128GB RAM 3200 288pin DDR4. The PC builder only offers it with 16,32, or 64GB max, with biggest pieces in 16GB each.
So my thought was to either add all 128GB myself later (4X32GB)
or
order it with 64GB (4x16)
then add 64GB (4x16) of the...
