IO1 initialization failed - windows 11
by Guest Vivianesantos11- 0 replies

My computer keeps showing a blue screen every time it starts up, and I can't access the recovery system because it restarts when I click. The only things I can access are the BIOS, the Windows memory diagnostic screen, and the screen in the image below. However, whenever I press F1 or any option that appears when I select the F8 key, the computer restarts and the error "IO1 initialization failed" appears.I believe it might be a driver error from the AMD graphics card driver I was downloading (driver version 24.9.1). I was trying to reinstall Windows 10 from a USB drive, but it said that some f Continue reading...

new /c/ disk and now w11pro key errors
by Guest neglectorino- 0 replies
- 5 views
how to tell if you're key is no longer valid cuz you switched the /c/ disk? got 11 pro 2 maybe 3 wks ago, a vbox instance grew out of control and caused bsod and boot errors. sfc chkdsk had no effect, option to "refresh" or whatever from disk wasn't an option, bought new disk and shelved the other for future exploration. errors each time on key which im looking at right now, even scratched it again to see if maybe that D wasn't a B type thing. no dice. i still have the /c/ it was installed on, and id certainly rather pay for some recovery software to restore it to working condition if ofc Continue reading...

On the last update I have gotten a bug. I am unable to use my pin to access my computer and creating new pins doesn't solve the issue. Each time I try to change the pin, I get a message similar to "sorry can't do that now. Try again later". I have been trying for the past three days and cannot get past the log in screen. I have had varioius techs look into this and say the bug is the issue.&nb Continue reading...

Transferring files, Booting/sleep mode, PC suddenly much slower
by Guest Thatchinagirl yes- 0 replies
- 6 views
Recently I've been having problems with my PC slowing down during certain tasks.One that bothers me a lot is when I transfer files, unzip using WinRAR and transfer files between folders, it can lag as if you're playing a too heavy game for your computer and the frames drop considerably, seeing as I am just moving files from 1 folder to another, I am not sure why the frames and pc itself suddenly goes to such a slow mode. Mouse almost unresponsive and you can feel how it's struggling.Opening chrome after launch will randomly take a moment as well, and it opens maybe 1 minute to 30 seconds after Continue reading...

I have my scheduler running every 15 minutes just to see if it ever completes the task. According to the Last run time it ran, but I get a last run result of (0XC0000409).What this is supposed to do it pull information from a SQL server and save it in an Excel file and save a copy of a PDF for a client. If I run the excel.xlsm by clicking on it, it does everything I need it to do, Once I can verify that it is properly working I will adjust it back to running once a day.I tried to attach a picture but this site keeps says failing to upload pic, Continue reading...
