Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-06-11 05:04 Hey guys, I've bought a laptop 2 years ago and I barely used it, when I tried opening it today the sound does not work, and when I format it, it refuses to do so because of a missing file. I'm not an expert in PC and tech stuff.. So I don't know what to do really. RE: Help with Laptop. - Nathan - 2015-06-11 05:18 Missing file might help Control panel-device manage -sound hardware List what it says under that tab Does it have up to date drivers installed RE: Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-06-11 05:36 Ok, now its working. Thanks! But now, when I try to format my laptop it says that a file Is missing, error code: 0xc0000001 RE: Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-07-24 22:18 Sorry for the bump but I have an issue, I recently formatted my Laptop at a store and upgraded the settings of my Laptop (Microsoft forced me) and now it ruined my sound system, and does not open LFS. Shows a message saying 'Could not detect suitable screen mode' or 'probable error in graphics driver'. Will reinstalling the original Win 8 help? Then at July 29 upgrade to Win 10. Edit: When I downgrade to Win 8 everything works perfect. But windows keep forcing me to upgrade my settings or to Win 8.1 (Can't remember) RE: Help with Laptop. - Rooztez - 2015-07-24 22:25 win 8.1 id required for installing win10. win 8 won't work. RE: Help with Laptop. - Val - 2015-07-25 06:21 You don't need to update to 8.1 to fix this issue, from your error message and as you have formatted your laptop, you need to install/update drivers. What do you mean by "Microsoft forced me" ? to what exactly ? RE: Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-07-25 08:15 They forcebally restarted my PC to install the updated setting. I can't click postpone anymore or even cancel it. RE: Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-07-25 09:05 So, If I buy & install win 8.1 from microsoft website, will this resolve all my issues? RE: Help with Laptop. - Val - 2015-07-25 11:49 Nope. RE: Help with Laptop. - KooKoo - 2015-07-25 14:34 I tried updating my drivers, but it won't work. RE: Help with Laptop. - Val - 2015-07-25 18:26 What doesn't work exactly ? Have you removed the old drivers, downloaded news and reinstalled ? I could take a closer eye if we go through skype, if you want you can give me yours by PM.
