ive scanned all my drives btw
i know i dont have a virus. ive already scanned for viruses and malware. even if i did have a virus that would definately go away when i reinstalled windows 8.1 pro, not to mention installed it on a completely different hard drive.
i thought about that. i didnt download them from bittorrent. when i bought the windows key the person sent me an iso file and i used that. and id say maybe a few months ago? ive just not wanted to fix it until minecraft stopped working
one thing though. it says test mode in the bottom corner but i cant disable it. ive tried doing bcdedit commands and everything.
oh yah and another thing that doesnt work is geforce experience. just fyi
like i said. i cant. i just followed your guide but im still in test mode. i checked to see if i had any unsigned drivers but i dont (sigverif). i cant exit test mode.
ive already tried that. plus the automated tool is for windows 7 only (tried that too)
and just for the hell of it i reinstalled windows 8.1 but still same issues. chrome stopped working so did minecraft.
Are you dual booting different OS's? you didn't mention that. What is the second OS you are booting to? Are they on separate HDD's or are they on the same HDD? When you reinstalled, did you wipe both OS partitions before installing?
If you have formatted a HDD and installed Windows OS fresh, it would be impossible for it to be in Test Mode.
ok so originally i had a triple boot with win 8.l1 pro win 7 and win 10. but i deleted the win 10 and win 7 to try to eliminate problms but it didnt. so then i reformatted anopther hdd and installed win 8.1 pro. so i am dual botting my old win 8.1 because idont want to lose it. but i had the same issues with the new one. and yes they are on different hdd. if you look at my speccy youll see i have 4 drives. i unplugged two to try to eliminate more problems so now i have two. the 128 ssd and the 1tb sshd
Concentrate on one drive at a time. Start with just your SSD plugged in, no other HDD's. Do a fresh install of Windows. It should not be in Test Mode. If that is successful, move to the next HDD, again, a fresh install of Windows should not be in Test Mode. If you want to save files from a HDD, once you have your OS installed on a drive, move your personal files from the problematic HDD to the good one. Then if you want to install an OS wipe that drive and do clean install of Windows, move the files back if that is what you want.
But thats the thing. The new os that i installed is completely fresh and not in test mode yet chrome and geforce experience etc. Still dont work.its on the ssd that was completely wiped wiped and yes ive removed the other hdd during the install.i really dont know what could be causing this. But chrome at least gives me an error message. It says unexpected error. Nothing else but the other programs dont even open.
Ok so here is what i did. I downloaded win 8.1 install media creator and put it on a flash drive. I unplugged everything and plugged in only one ssd. Then i wiped iit and installed windows. It gave me irql not less or equal. So i know its from my gpu. I can use it with integrated graphics (intel hd graphics) but no gpu. Which is quite important. Please help.
Then go to the nVidia drivers page Manually search for the 700 series, 750 GTX TI driver and download it: Drivers | GeForce
