SOLVED! I used the MiniTool Partition Wizard (Freeware). Using the Partition Recovery tool it worked perfect. I see this is happening to a lot of guys after this update after Googling it.

Windows 10 Pro has run great for me... until now. I let it update today (the 'anniversary update') and now my 2nd hard drive shows up as 'Unallocated'. There are lots of files/pictures/music on there I don't want to lose!
It is a WD 300gb Raptor (Disk 1). I don't want to format it or I will...

Weird motherboard problem
I got a Supermicro P4SCT+II in trade. I put it together on my test table with a 3.2ghz P4 Northwood with a stock Intel HS/Fan and 2x1gb DDR400 Crucial memory. It powers up as soon as I turn on the power supply WITHOUT shorting the power ON/OFF pins. I figured ya, I've...

I grabbed one when it was on sale and slapping togeter a build in it now. No complaints here. Nice case. But it has so much vent space it looks like a dust magnet is coming on the inside.
The chipset is NF4 Ultra. EP-MF4 Ultra is the model number of the board. What has me wondering is since Epox went under in 2007 and the last BIOS was on 2/8/2007 (mf4u7208.bin) would it support any CPUs that came out after that date?
Here is my setup: Remington R-15 (.223)/Nikon Coyote Special 4.5x14 power scope/Hornady 55gr V-MAX Moly ammo. Super accurate rifle. It shoots 1/2" to 5/8" groups consistently. It's a sweet coyote and fox gun. Love this ammo. It goes in, blows up, and does not exit on yotes and foxes.
And...
Issue resolved! After examining the wiring I noticed the new switch (running the HTPC and BLU-RAY player) was wired to the other switch. So it was Router>first switch>second switch. I rearranged the wires so the second switch went directly to the router and BAM 50MBs! I am guessing trying to...
RESOLED!
I have aquired a strange problem. All my PCs used to get 45-60MBs transfer rates on my home network. That includes the the HTPC in my living room. I just got a new Sony BLU-RAY player that can stream internet media like Netflix, You Tube,etc. So I purchased a D-Link DGS-2205 5 port...
Nice deal. Grabbed a 20 off 50 coupon then got one at our nearest Staples for $48.40 minus the $20 coupon = $28.40. Sweet! I did have buy another small item to get the total to over $50 but that was no biggie.
My wife and I just visited my wife's aunt in Laramie. She is 92 years old and going strong! Anyway she has a Dell Dimension desktop that she uses mostly for email and printing pictures and such.
I took a look at it and it needs more memory and a faster CPU. It is an 865 Springdale chipset...
Well, we will see. I bought one. Corsair stands behind their products. I bought a CMPSU-750TX at a local computer fair last year. Just a bunch of tables set up, fleamarket style. It was new and the gal gave me a receipt for it. I highly doubt she was an 'Authorized Reseller'. About 4 months...
I considered that... not getting the rebate. But look at this...
Other vendors, Before $25 rebate, Shipping NOT included
NewEgg $164.99 (this one does have free shipping. But I got stiffed on a DVD+R D/L media rebate from them about 6 months ago)
Provantage $139.57
ZZF $148.90

Corsair Memory CMPSU-620HX 620W Power Supply.
I think it is a great price for a top notch power supply $116.51 shipped here
And to top it off there is a $25 rebate June 16th thru June 30th right here
So that makes it $116.51 (already a great price, shipped) minus the $25 rebate come...
It was a custom built PC. The OS is on dual WD Raptor 74gb drives in Raid0. And I am going to be using the Raptors on the new build. The Vista disc is just a regular Microsoft OEM disc, not Dell, HP, Gateway, etc branded.
I bought a PC that had Vista Home Premium OEM 64bit on it. The PC has a trashed motherboard (AMD). I stripped down the PC and am going to an Intel system in the case.
Included is the Vista disc in the original clear plastic case and the COA sticker is on that case.
Will I have problems...
Thanks for the tip Martimus I popped it open and looked it over real carefully. No bulged or leaking caps at all, and I checked every single one. I wonder if I ought to try it out on a system???
I had an Enermax 431w a couple years ago that died and I took it apart for a look see. That bad...
The motherboard is whacked. No video.

I couldn't wait. Found out the video card is FINE! I put the CPU/Heatsink/Memory/Vid card/1 Raptor in my Opteron system. Ran Western Digital Lifeguard tools. No errors on that Raptor. Then I wrote zeros to the entire drive. Installed Windows XP with no problems. Spent all night running...
This is getting better by the minute. I'll test the rest of the parts tomorrow but for now I was looking at the power supply. I didn't pop it open or anything but I gave it the old sniff test. Hmmm... nothing SMELLED burnt. So I have a power supply tester for 20 pin power supplys. I unhooked the...
I'm back and pumped up! Man... It is a S939 setup! I got it today and it weighs a ton. Anyway I stripped it down. Have not tested any parts yet but gonna pull apart my Opteron 180 setup to test the componets on.
So a list of what I got:
S939 Athlon 64 X2 4800+. I just checked on Ebay and a...
Suppose I am gettin ants in my pants since I have not even got it yet. I guess I have always been 'lucky'. Meaning I have fixed several PCs where the power supply went bad.
Somtimes the PC just needed a new PS

I just emailed him and he is (appears) somewhat naive about PCs. He had it built for him and when it died he took it to a shop to have them look at it. He said it will be shipped complete with nothing removed from it. I asked him if the X2 4800+ was a S939 or an AM2. He says he does not know. If...

So I figured what the heck. The auction only had a few hours left and the starting minimum bid was $75 with no reserve and no bids yet. So I put $101.03 as my maximum...
The cheap media I thought I got a good deal on over the years came back to bite me in the ass. Even when they burn OK after sitting for a year or two the are no good... full of CRC errors. I reburned every DVD movie I had that was not on TY media. And close to 50 of them were not recoverable so...
I am running a dual boot XP Pro/Vista Ultimate 32bit. My old Santa Cruz sounds fine in XP but only 2 ch sound in Vista. And Turtle Beach will not be releasing any new drivers for Vista :(
Kinda thinking about the X-Fi Extreme Music. Even if OD does not have it on clearance there are new ones...
