Thanks all, I've made some changes and will monitor for the results.

I am using Outlook (client version) in my MS 365 subscription. My main email that I use is an Outlook.com account. I also have a 2nd email account that I send/receive in Outlook. For the past week, when I open Outlook off my desktop, the send/receive task does not complete the Synchronization...

So I had a painful lesson with this clean install, one that I've never encountered before. There 2 things I had to do, first switch from Raid to ACHI in the bios. That allowed me to see the drive to reinstall Win 11. Second thing I should have done and didn't was disconnect the second drive...

I went back and looked at the original specs when I ordered the PC and you are correct. There are 2 physical drives plus the hard drive. I need to rethink about this and I'll look at your and others suggestions. thanks again.

I have D Drive for storage so storage is not an issue. Granted I'm not savvy in this area, but disk 0 and disk 1 are part of the same physical drive. My hope was to add the space from disk 0 to C drive.

I did a clean install on my Alienware R13 desktop computer today. As background information, the issue I had with the installation was the fact that the C Drive wasn't shown when prompted to decide where to install Windows 11. I learned that the C Drive was set to RAID (in the bios) and was the...

That sounds like a solution, but I can't boot up the laptop. I'll look at the tutorial closer but I don't believe it will work. Frustrating part. I don't have the right screw driller to open the back to take the battery out.

Need a little help. I'm using Windows Assistant app to upgrade my 1 year old laptop. Installation seemed to be going fine and when step 3(Install) was complete the laptop restarted. It hung up at this point for all most 15 minutes. I shut it down now I can't get the machine to come back on...

Hello Shawn, it has been a while hope all is well with you. I'm preparing my Alienware PC to list it for sale. I will be performing a cleans install from a bootable USB drive. When I received the PC, Windows 10 Pro was installed and when I took the upgrade for Win 11, the version remained the...
