A Google list of ideas to save data from non-working boot drive  I've never had to retrieve data from a non-working boot drive, so I did a general Google search.  Important files and data should always ne backed up outside of PC. Win10 DVD Newegg  I'm suggesting the Win10 DVD because it has features you're already used to with Win7.  Plus it's more secure and you'll get the updates. I understand it when people don't want to use Win10.  I wanted Win7 on a separate drive in my Win10 PC.  However, I couldn't get Win7 to work right with any of my Bluetooth drivers.  BT driver Win7 comes with is too generic.  So I tried reloading Win7 with SP1.  It was to raw to barely do anything online, plus with no updates, certain features don't work.
Hello, So yesterday i was turning on my computer Dell Optiplex 790 sff with OS Windows 7 and it tried to power on and after 2 or 3 seconds it powers off. and does the same thing over and over again. i looked up for a solution on the internet and it said that its mostly because of a bad ram. So i started checking for problems with my ram and eventually found a bad one. so i removed it. Now, it turns on but freezes at "Starting Windows" and reboots and says "your computer could not start up properly. So i chose Startup Repair. Startup repair froze but after 2-3 tries it showed (attached image) blue screen. [IMAGE] Now whenever i do "Startup repair" it shows me this.... and another error on the blue screen which was 0x0000050 PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA . I tried to enter the desktop but found no ways. I also tried using safe mode. it does the same thing... restarts and freezes at "starting Windows". i dont know what to do next now.. For information on my PC: Operating System: Windows 7 Total Ram: 8GB (2GB ram stick in each of the 4 slots and after removing the bad ram its 6GB)   please help me with this problem.. I've been trying to fix it for a couple of days.
Dell Optiplex 790 sff powers off and powers on continuosly. removing a bad ram 
causes blue screen.
