My friend brought over his MSI GT70 laptop which has Windows 8.1 loaded on it. He wanted to update his drivers for the killer nic and wireless (since he has not updated since he got the laptop). He downloaded the various drivers, but never installed so he has a good library. So we extracted...

I was reading some forum threads at woody's and I came across this Topic: What are these preinstalled 8.1 updates from November 2014? @ AskWoody And in the thread they mention ISO version #3 and then in the lost post they mention version #4. I tried looking at the properties of a download...

I am currently on 8199 with my W8.1 Pro. I was looking at the Realtek site and I saw a higher version there; 82XX. I downloaded the file and extracted the files. What I found was that the HDXRT file has my hardware ID for my system so I am wondering if these drivers will work? Is there some...

I had an issue with some updates and then solved it by using the manual way. But I came across something that I am not sure of; these NET Framework ones. If I go to the MUC and download the update it gives me several updates to download. Should I just download them all and install each one or...

So I have my 8.1 Pro 64-bit system and I was doing my standard sfc /scannow and it found some errors: It says it found some corrupt files, but could not fix them. It was put in to the log. From my past I remembered this happened to a Win7 system (friends) and it ended up also being an issue...

I am getting to something that I have known about, but have not found the time to look in to and resolve until today. Even on Windows 7 machines this item appears. On my Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit machine I used AutoRuns and under scheduled tasks this item appears in pink. I am just wondering if...

So I just built my new system and I installed Windows 8.1 (first ever to have) and now I need to install the updates. However I read around the Internet about a fiasco about updates which I am not seeing. The update was KB2919355 and from what I read you had to install this update along with...

So I have a Samsung SSD sitting around and I've been really bored so I ordered parts for a new system to stick that SSD in to. Parts are coming in and I also ordered Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit. I am a BIOS guy, but I want to install Windows 8.1 in UEFI to get my feet wet (and always good to learn...
