| 1414793 | 2016-01-23 10:14:00 | Blimey -- Reading all the procedures for antivirus and firewalls that were installed, removed got my head in a spin :waughh::waughh: :D Chopping and changing like that may or may not have caused the problem but certainly wouldn't have helped anything. Anytime those types of programs install esp firewalls they do change a lot of settings. Just a thought -- If she wanted to change to W10, then doing a fresh install from the start should be fine. get a copy of the product key thats installed and use that. The latest build of W10 accepts all W7 with sp1 to 8.1 keys. You can down load the ISO from software-download/techbench (www.microsoft.com) Scroll down the page a bit to get to the ISO option. :D yeah well all those AV's and FW's were over a long period of time....just the last one of installing Avast from direct/download install while Comodo was running and then uninstalling Comodo IS using Revo and then installing Comodo FW and then the reboot and the HDD Led on hard...and then uninstalling Comodo FW as it seemed Windows FW was working...all happened in a day. As for Windows 10...she was eligible for the free W10 instal and then for some reason when it went to instal it failed. Reason for that I think would have been because the Compaq NX9600 didn't have the required capabilities to run W10......CPU/Graphics/RAM 2gb max. She could get the .ISO as you sent link and try the upgrade repair instal or do a fresh calen instal. Up to her really. Anyway, the book is closed and thanks. |

| 1414794 | 2016-01-23 10:18:00 | Only thing left is do a clean install. That should solve all her probs. And tell her not to get carried with firewalls. It wont crash and burn, if she doesnt install one Cheers speedy. Shame really because I know (am well confident) that if you could have connected to the machine you would have solved the problem in not too many blinks of the eye. What was taking hours/days to do via me to here and then back to you could have been omitted because what you can do with the machinge in front of you is fast moving through procedures. Thanks for your help and time. ;) |
