My laptop recently got a blue screen of death and said Bad config info. I researched on what to do and one of the solutions were to restore to the last restore point I did this and when I came back everything looked fine but everything was working soooo slow. For example, I would open google chrome and this would open 20 minutes later. I right click a software and the options show up like 10 minutes later. I tried factory resetting my pc and it would take a lot of time just to get to the black screen to say resetting pc 3% only to restart and act like as if nothing happened and like I just started my laptop. I closed my laptop took out the cords (can't take out the battery as it is inside) and waited. Then after like 5 minutes I connected and restarted, this showed me the bios settings. I didn't click any buttons at all when it was starting up. I tried clicking save and continue only for it to restart and go back to bios setting. I tried everything. Clicking reset to default and save and continue. Still didn't work. I'm thinking about installing windows 10 through a usb. Thank you for any help.
I really want to buy a pc especially for gaming, but my dad doesn't want me to because it is expensive, which i totally can understand but the thing is that he won't even let me earn money or like work to buy myself a pc. I don't know what to do because either way I'm stuck.
No the windows 10 will be registered against the hardware hash of the computer and will install without a licence key and activate as the hard drive is not a regsitere dpart of the hardware hash of the computer
Basically the hardware hash is the motherboard and CPU, as far as major changes are concerned
If you do NOT have a Microsoft account on the existing windows 10, then you cannot use that account activation troubleshooter on the new drive installation - even if you establish a Microsoft account on the new installation.
