Out of no where my computer started to crash (however there is no visible BSOD, the computer just shuts off when trying to sleep) when trying to go to sleep. After much trial and error I found that my TV Tuner (that worked perfectly for weeks) was causing it. Unplugging the tuner let the...

For the past few months I've had a TV Tuner (Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q) plugged into my rear USB. Yesterday my computer stopped going to sleep/hibernation instead it would just hang shut off (no BSOD). After 2 hours of trial and error I found the issue was my TV Tuner. What would cause this? Is...

Any ideas? I just installed all the drivers from Dell (this is an XPSL521X) so I would guess it is one of those.

I have one of the strangest issues I have come across. After upgrading to 8.1 my power button doesn't always work when trying to enter sleep mode. It's how I send my computer to sleep and wake it up. If the computer is off or asleep and I press the button it works every time, but if it is on and...

I have had a BSOD twice during sleep and this time it caused my libraries to stop working.

I launched the video app for the first time today and realized how unorganized it is. I have many video clips and having just one huge giant list of all of them is not very ideal. Is there a way to add folders to the "my videos" section - or add my own TV shows in the TV tab?

Hello all, first BSOD problem with Windows 8. It happens when awaking form sleep mode, but it doesn't happen every time. BSOD Files: Thanks in advance!

Hello all, Just got a new XPS L521X with 8 pre installed but the battery life isn't that great. I am getting mixed responses about if this is the normal battery life (about 25% an hour). I put "powercfg /energy" in CMD and I got this back: USB Suspend:USB Device not Entering Selective Suspend...

My computer goes straight to an error message after the BIOS, "The operating system couldn't be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors File: \WINDOWS\system32\config\system Error code: 0x0000225" chkdsk /r says there are no errors and sfc/ scannow won't run, says...

Most of the time when I put the computer to sleep it BSOD's. All the information I can find is the cause is ntoskrnl.exe but that doesn't help too much. I know its probably a driver or something somewhere because if I boot into 7 everything works fine. It is probably ATI's fault, I always seem...

I dual booted on a tablet pc (HP TouchSmart tx2) and when I tap a tile nothing happens (the tile shows the tapping animation but that application doesn't open), but if I click it with the mouse or pen it works.

I can't get Virtual Box working on my HP Slate 500 (plus it would be to laggy) so I want to attempt a dual boot, only problem is I don't have enough room to do that. The HP Slate 500 has an SD card port and I have a 32 GB card, can I boot 8 from that card somehow?

I was just reading that Windows 8 Metro/Tile interface only supports resolutions higher than 1024x768. Is this true? I have an HP Slate 500 with 1024x600 - is my tablet pretty much useless now or will it be able to run Windows 8?

I have Windows 8 in Oracle VituralBox and its slightly laggy, is there a setting I can improve to make it run the best it can?
