only have one usb drive to use, want to put memtest86 on it

but i also have a bootable windows recovery on it too. how do i tell my pc to boot up the memtest and not the windows 10recovery upgrade thing?

basically i have one thing on my usb drive thats bootable but i also want to put another thing

if i were to copy the windows files off my usb and put them on my harddrive, if i pasted them back, would everything still be the same?

is memtest86 saying its possible i wont be able to use the drive ever again if it loses its capacity? should i format the drive before writing memtest?

im getting a ton of bsods, but windows 10 memtest found nothing. id hate to lose my ability to reinstall windows 10 because i chose to run a memtest on my only usb and found out that its not my ram. (i think it is though)

is memtest86 much better at finding failing ram than the stock memtest that comes with windows 10???

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
