Hi there,
I've come across a problem, and I'm slightly panicking but I'm trying not to become too over zealous of the situation.
This morning, I decided to do a little "spring cleaning" on my computer, cleared out some dust, the usual routine. I booted up my computer, and I remembered there was a problem I was trying to fix a few months back, and thought I'd gear on it this morning.
I was showing that I had 3.99GB Usable but I have 8GB of ram. So I did some research and I came across this forum and this thread here: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/309643-30-installed-usable
The 2nd post in reply to this thread was clearing your CMOS, I followed the instructional video..to the tee.
Now I'm stuck in a boot loop; To top it off...I'm kind of an idiot I forgot what I had my bios settings to. To make things worse about a year ago I recovered my PC from a virus that was stuck in a Boot loop it was a long and dreadful process but I was able to recover it. Funny thing it all happened in June of last year...I have these bad omens during the summer time with my computer I don't know why.
It would be lovely to get an expertise on board to help me with my situation. I do a lot of 3d Animation, and have very important data; I'm just preparing myself for the worse already, just in-case I have truly corrupted my computer for a complete reformat.
I'm more than confident this problem is reversible...and I just need some guidance thanks.
I'm running on Windows 7 Home 64bit
Thanks,
