Olarewajub: The easier way to troubleshoot would be to try external keyboard. If you don't have, check on the nearest café. If external works then you need a new keyboard if not then it's the keyboard connector on the motherboard |

computerboy: I will an use an external keyboard I just pray it's the keyboard connector on the mother board or dust. |

Olarewajub: Sorry I meant to say if external keyboard works then it's either your keyboard is faulty or the keyboard connector is faulty |

Lexusgs430:it was on windows 7ultimate,some keys stopped responding immediately after the upgrade |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by AareOgbuefi: 8:31am On Sep 26, 2016 |
computerboy:thanks for attempting to help, but how can the keyboard spoil during an upgrade? Can't comprehend that |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by computerboy: 8:51am On Sep 26, 2016 |
AareOgbuefi: I meant that your keyboard could spoil just when you're about doing the upgrade and you'll think it's related to the upgrade. These electronics can really confuse people at times |

30secs: Search for Microsoft Toolkit latest version. Download and Use it to activate your windows. I'll be banned if I post the link. It's an easy search on Google |

My Western Digital External Hard Drive is showing as Local Disk instead of a Removable Drive. This began 2 days ago. The external hard drive is assessible, working fine and the files inside are opening. It also ejects normally and is easily detected by the TV when plugged in via USB. My only worry is its appearance as Local Disk and it's inability to be renamed as it reverts back to Local Disk immediately. Any suggestions on how to fix this? |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by computerboy: 3:55am On Sep 28, 2016 |
Lexusgs: Not really. I just don't need ban for the next 7 days. I want to list some new laptop arrivals this weekend |

Lexusgs: I'm telling you. I'm just using the biz to keep up my cash with inflation rate instead of leaving it in the bank. |

semid4lyfe: You have autorun.inf in the hard drive. Just set your file manager to show hidden files. You'll see it then delete it |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by semid4lyfe(m): 1:10pm On Sep 28, 2016 |
computerboy: Thanks, this worked albeit with some modifications. autorun.inf was not visible even after ticking the show hidden files checkbox in file explorer so I installed UltraISO, navigated via UltraISO to my External Hard Drive (Local Disk G) and deleted the autorun.inf. |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by computerboy: 5:23pm On Sep 28, 2016 |
semid4lyfe: There are actually two places to set it. Ticking only "show hidden files" won't show all of them. |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by semid4lyfe(m): 5:49pm On Sep 28, 2016 |
computerboy: Ok, I am learning. Where is the second place one has to tick? Meanwhile, while we're at it, can you help me resolve this. It's with an old 1TB Westeran Digital External Hard Drive. I was able to recover all my files in it but I'm wondering if it can be made usable https://www.nairaland.com/301179/post-computer-pc-troubles-here/350 (The Problem + screenshots) https://www.nairaland.com/301179/post-computer-pc-troubles-here/355 (Recovery of my files + screenshots) semid4lyfe on October 15, 2013: www.nairaland.com/attachments/1360939_External_HDD_jpga58713f72b25c496aa79f8082b6060e0 www.nairaland.com/attachments/1361239_Disk_Management_jpg122933bee625b790d55f9e66676439cd www.nairaland.com/attachments/1361240_Ext_HD_Properties_jpgc506878520220be1a2ef80cfe9b3429a www.nairaland.com/attachments/1361241_chkdisk_i_diskpart_jpg6e824acd1355499be1bf12d2955eeec5 |

semid4lyfe: Depending on your version of windows, Locate "folder options" (in windows 7, it's called "folder and search options" in the windows file manager and open it, click on the view tab then scroll down and un-tick "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)"
Read about HDD Regenerator. It's a paid software tho but I've gotten success stories. It can even repair physically damage drive |

computerboy: Computer boy could you help me out of a little fix; I just got a new laptop running windows 10 pro (activated), after a few nights of using airtel 500mb night plan it starts prompting me to install the anniversary update, note: install not download, I knw the few subs I did is not enough to download the update of abt 3gb, my question should I install? Is the update file size different depending on your windows 10 version? And if I choose install will the installation process wipe my files? Thanks 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by computerboy: 10:55am On Sep 29, 2016 |
chigoeze: Forget about the "install" it'll still download before installing. Also you won't lose any files |

chigoeze: If not for the graphics card it would have been OK. the remaining specs are on point. Could I get your number (whatsapp) in case I'm need of a system and also the number of the lady coz getting those specs on new laptops will be costly. Tnx |
