Every time I boot my laptop.. i am greeted by enter PIN... i need to click sign in option then pick fingerprint everytime i need to login. Is there a way to make fingerprint as my default way to login?...
My HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC has recently had some issues, so I had to reset it to factory settings (Windows 7) and then upgraded again to windows 10. Now my fingerprint reader is not working, I do not have windows hello on my laptop at all, and I can't even find it as biometric devices in my device manager. can I do something to make it work?
I have a Lenovo X1 Carbon (2012 version) with a fingerprint reader. When I want to install the lenovo driver I have a message that said the Windows Biometric Framework need to be activate. I go into gpedit.msc and active the service, reboot the computer but still the error...
Trying to do a clean install booting from DVD or USB created w Media Creation Tool:
Windows 7 x86 and x64 boots from DVD or USB
Windows 10 x86, boots from DVD or USB.
Windows 10 x64, from DVD loads the blue window and then nothing more. Have to switch off/on to get out of it. From USB - nothing, just blank, some HD activity and then nothing, ctrl/Alt/Del restarts
i have had windows 10 installed on m,y pc since july 30ish....and ever since i upgraded to windows 10 from 8.1 the pc has been locking up every time i try to do anything...something as simple as opening my documents causes the pc to use 100% disk too the point i have to reset......i was hoping i could install windows 8.1 since i still have the key by using the upgrade assistant but when i tried to run it it said "this system is unsupported" and i have tried everything i could think of to fix the 100% disk issue nothing has worked
Every time I try to reinstall Windows 10 it always hangs when I have to input my time zone, no keyboard inputs or mouse registration however keyboard and mouse works on BIOS, this is the screen that I get stuck at:
I recieved a new desktop pc today (hp envy pheonix) I started the first time setup with windows 10 and reached the point where I had to put my email and password in, which I did. It took me to a blue screen which say "Oops something went wrong" There is no back button on screen and I have tried rebooting the pc and it just returns to the same screen, so I'm stuck looking at this one screen.
When logging on to Windows 10 one of the early screens gives a timed option to select either Windows 10 or Windows Setup. The second option takes you to Windows Boot Manager. Could this option screen is a fixed feature of Windows 10 and, if it is, under what circumstances might one need to select the Windows Setup option.
I am trying to clean install windows 10 (currently running win 10) have take media creation tool with USB as option. Now when I restart the machine to go to BIOS pressing Del or F12 keys I am unable to go to bios the system goes to win 10 start up..
So I am in the process of upgrading my other PC to windows 10 from 7 home premium. It has been stuck at the blue screen that says "Setup is starting" with a hourglass. My mouse (the hourglass) still functions correctly but nothing else has moved.
I need to either install windows 10 without a user account and download the drivers or install drivers on a partition that isn't going to be wiped when I refresh the operating system. This is for a client that knows very little about computing and I offered to build her a computer.
I've installed Win10 on secondary HDD and I kept my WIndows 7 on different HDD.How do I setup dual boot?Each time PC reboots its loading only windows 10 without any dual boot.I can change the boot order in my BIOS but it would be great if I can do it via dual boot
I just did a fresh install of windows 10, and I have decided to try and start with a better form of organization. I want to try and keep my SSD with my OS on it as clear as possible. By doing that I wanted to keeps all my pictures and documents, videos, etc on my second hdd.
That is simple enough. What I want to know is if there is an easy way to have it set so every time I add pictures or music it stores on the secondary drive and still shows up in my "Pictures" file. How do you organize?
I was running win 7 (64bit) pleasantly but decided to install Win10, did all the needed stuff for getting dual boot setup.Win10 booted fine, when selected from dual boot menu, but I have many issues on win10, Lenovo laptop is begging for mercy on win10 for many things, my android phone gets disconnected every few seconds if I use youtube, laptop becomes sluggish. USB3 will not install, which worked in win7 earlier.
Fed up with win10, even after disabling driver signature, making sure every driver is correct which I am installing, but this laptop hates win 10 as of now.Now if I choose to run win7, lappy reboots and thats a LOOP. my win7 installation is shown in Drive letter E: while windows 10 is shown in C: What would be the safest way of Re-installating win 7 on E: without loosing the following the crappy win 10 of c:/ dual mode option on win 7 +10
What I want is to run win7 setup which has SP1 integrated and still be able to boot in win10 if I needed later.I have activation keys for both provided by my office which is based on volume licensing.
Received HP notebook for Christmas. Model 15-F211WM. Having problems with (1) making Mozilla Firefox the default web browser instead of Microsoft Edge; and (2) viewing DVDs (I insert DVD, drive whirs, lights flash, nothing plays, get no messages). How do you access the DVD drive anyway?
I just did a fresh install of Windows 7 and activated the key, then i installed all of the latest updates. I then downloaded the media creation tool x64 to install windows 10 and when I get to the key activation my key doesn't work.
I was in Windows 10 setup using the Media tool. I have reached the step where it restarted then a big circle came up with three parts under saying like "Copying Files" and other two things. Then, suddenly it restarted and only a black screen was there. No cursor, sounds, screen. Now I am installing Windows 10 again but fearing the same will happen again. This is NOT a black screen at the log screen; I have not even finished the installation yet and get a black screen.
How to setup a spreadsheet in Excel. This is my first attempt at making a spreadsheet. In this example how do I setup this spreadsheet so that I can keep a running total of columns C,D and E in column F if I keep adding new lines.
Just for fun, I am trying to set up my pop3 email account on the application called Mail in Windows 10. I have succeeded in having my MSN and Gmail accounts working in the application, but when attempting to set up my pop3 mail, it will show a triangle with an exclamation point inside it. When I click on it, it opens up an Attention Required with a User Name and Password. Each time I type in the password for the pop3 email account, it still fails to sign on and says "Your [provider] account settings are out-of-date."
I have also tried adding the account under settings>accounts>your email and accounts, and it still says attention required. when I click on manage, the password is too long for it to be the account password. I try retyping in the account password and saving it but it still changes.
as the Mail app with Win10 does not work very well (slow to sync/loses sync) I am wanting to switch to Gmail for all my accounts - I can import my old Outlook mail fine but always get an error when trying to add the Outlook account for new mail. Any trick to getting that to work?
I'm running Windows 10 now and I haven't been able to connect to my Lumia 822 (WP 8.1) using internet sharing. I click on connect on Windows 10, and then it says "Can't setup mobile hotspot".
Since up grading to windows 10 I can no longer access my router setup page. When I type in the address nothing happens the little circle just keeps spinning. I tried chrome and get the same thing. I also tried from 2 different computers, both running windows 10. the router is an ASUS AC router.
