    does this happen if the networking is down?
    i just realised it maybe be doing something in the background - like mining for bitcoins.

        I'd suggest setting the page file to 4GB fixed. Then, upgrade to Windows 10. That should fix it!

            It happenes later on a haswell system. Its related to how low the Samsung magician sets the page file, and the fact taking so many damn updates (190+) from a fresh install of windows 7 sp1, and the fact installing updates uses very little ram and mostly the swap file

                USB problems?
                by Hondaman
                Recently I discovered my SSD died (OCZ/Toshiba 240 GB). It was in a USB enclosure, attached to the Linksys WRT-AC1200 router. Since then I removed the USB enclosure and attached it to my Win7 PC (AMD 8150 CPU, 970 chipset, 64 GB RAM). I also gathered one or two other USB enclosures to figure out what is going on.

                (I suspect that I lost quite a few MP3 and FLAC files I recently ripped from my audio CDs, I think I lost very little un-replaceable stuff.)

                I think it is IMPOSSIBLE for Win7 to have any problems with a USB enclosure as long as Win7 knows how to speak to the...

                Win7 Emulation in Linux
                by Hondaman
                If I install Win7 in VirtualBox or KVM, will Windows be tied to that exact hardware? Can I take the VM and move it to another machine at some point without having to re-activate Win7?

                I bought a replacement board identical to the one Win7 is licensed on. But of course it failed. I have two more identical boards in my basement. Running out of acceptable hardware will not happen for quite a few years, hopefully.

                But I am looking forward to that day when I cannot find any hardware, and I have to use emulation. Does anyone have experience with this?

                Anyone here fix a tv and customer cracks panel when they get it home?
                by mecha1166
                About 2 times a year, a customer will do this. We fix the tv, put it on test play, and customer sees it working. They see me pull power and video wire. Sometimes I pick up tv, right in front of them, and carry it out to their vehicle while they are next to me. I set it in their tv gently, and tell them the tv is very fragile, be careful with it. I let them close the door/trunk. That day, or a few days later, they tell me there is a crack inside the tv. Normally I tell them transportation is their responsibility and normally that is the end of it. Has anyone had a customer that was not buying this...

                by jean luc ferre
                Hello,
                on this laptop hp g72 b52sf i have screen problems as you can see with the photo joined in attachments.
                the used graphic card is "intel hd graphics" and the id of the integrated screen is : "monitor/SEC3354".
                i verified the driver of the péripherals and they are ok. i verified the definition and settings of the graphic card and of the screen : definition 1600x900 and refreshment frequency :60hz. (they are the sames for the graphic card and the screen).
                i don't understand the reasons of the white stripe at the bottom of the screen below the task...

                win7 home iso? can I get 10?
                by eccerr0r
                Well I think that I have a GTX660Ti that's dead but I think I should give it one last try with its original OS and drivers: win7 home premium. While I can't stomach using win* of any type (I'm 100% Linux these days) I think I have to give benefit of the doubt to drivers, etc.

                So... I have the original CoA for Win7 home premium and it's an OEM license. And I have the whole computer that the GTX660Ti came in (it was reportedly working too), minus the original hard drive, what could I download and run the machine temporarily to verify the GTX660Ti works with Windows or not?
