When you go to Settings; Storage I was seeing 3 forms of memory Internal and 2 SD Cards. The problem was that the second SD card was like a phantom. I just had to delete it and "Forget" it and the problem went away

I love my g7. The camera is great, sound and screen are good. I am having a current issues with memory but I'm sure that will be resolved.

I've been getting these messages intermittently for a few months but they always went away so I didn't worry about it. At one point I took it into my provider's shop (Boost) to have them take a look at it. Predictably they said I needed a new phone. They did take it out and look at it, but they...

I want to replace my cracked screen. My Moto E4 is marked XT1776. In searching the usual sources for the replacement display, I'm finding that my searches don't turn up the XT1776, but I'm finding lots of XT1775 displays. Can I safely purchase a display that has a different number? Of course...

Thanks RARRAF, sorry for the delay in getting back to you about this issue. I downloaded a fresh ISO from getintopc.com and used RUFUS to create- a- fresh stick and it worked fine. I think I had used it so much that it had become corrupted. Thanks, Jim

I tried it your way and it tried to boot to the USB but after a few minutes it came up with a message: "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart.We'll restart it for you." I tried it with a NTFS and exFAT format bed.

Hi RRARAF, I have booted other laptops with this USB drive. It was created using Rufus.

I have a bad hard drive on this machine so I'm trying to boot from a Win 10 PE ISO USB or DVD. When it boots it says to hit F12 for boot options. It brings up a nice menu of boot devices which in the Legacy section includes the USB drive and the DVD drive. If I choose the USB option, it just...

I finally lost my patience and stopped the process. I then had access to the new bios but it wouldn't boot into Windows 7. I could then boot from the USB drive so I re-installed Windows 7 to the hard drive from the USB. Everything is working fine now. And I just acquired another laptop with the...

I am presently upgrading the bios, but the upgrade has been running for over 4 hours. Is that normal? What should I do?

Hi, I finally got back to work on this machine and can report progress. I was able to change out the hard drive and install Windows 7 and it boots quickly. The only problem now is that I can't get into the bios. None of the F keys do anything except take you to the boot manager. I woulde like to...

After studying several threads with similar problems, I opened the case and cleaned and re-seated the connector to the screen, but it didn't change at all. Thanks for any help. Regards, Jim

Hi all, I have this HP dv6700, which is running well on Vista, in every way except one. The screen is showing 3 vertical stripes running from top to bottom. They are between 3-5 pixels wide. I tried to take a screen shot to show you what it's like, but the screen shot of the desktop didn't show...

Thanks little_me, those You-Tube videos did the trick. I was being too gentle.

Thanks mcnumpty23, unfortunately in this case the CMOS battery is not under that cover, just the HDD and memory. This is a model of Samsung that has a sealed main battery and I think the difficulty in removing the case cover is related to that. I have removed every screw that I see, and the ODD...
