  1. Hi all. Shutting down my laptop one evening after use, caused it to hang.
  2. I switched it off by keeping the start button in and was greeted the next day with a blue screen error.
  3. I tried all options on the F8 menu, everyone resulted in a blue screen as soon as the Windows logo appears, some sooner.
  4. I have Windows 7 on the drive, changed the boot menu to boot to the CD drive with an original Windows 7 CD in - same results. Cd spin up, loading files and then to the blue screen.
  5. I have also created a Windows 10 installation package on a USB flash drive, just a more sophisticated blue screen...
  6. The errors are not consistent. I am using a 4Gb RAM from my Lenovo which work perfectly, also swopped it out with the other 4Gb in the Lenovo, both working fine. I took the drive out, connected externally to the Lenovo and saw that file system was still intact, but noticed that I could not access the folders because of permissions set which I then removed.
  7. I ran a virus check which came out clean, thinking it was the result of a virus.
  8. Putting it back in the Acer, no change. Forums tell you to start up in Safe Mode and delete drivers, do a restore etc. None of those are possible as I don't have access to an operating system. Any ideas?
  9. Can I access the drive externally if it is the drivers possibly and delete all in C:/Windows/System 32/Drivers?
  10. I have also tried another hard drive which was formatted and partitioned.
  11. Please help!!! (Buying a new laptop is NOT an option)
 
Solution: install new operating system window 10

I mentioned; in my post that I created a Windows 10 installation flash drive, but could not install from there, same results.
 
My dad asked me to help him replace his Windows 7 with the 11th version. I was like, "Finally!". What do you guys think about the 11th version?
 
Hey there! I'm new here, but I can totally relate to your excitement about the new Windows 11. It's always great to upgrade and try out new features. As for the 11th version, I've heard great things about its improved interface and functionality. And if you're worried about activating it, you can always use KMS Auto to get it up and running smoothly. LMK how your dad likes it!!
