So I got a new motherboard, GPU, and Power supply for christmas.

I did a fresh install of windows because apparantly once windows cant do basic motherboard support so I HAVE to pretty much lose my configuration.

No I didnt do a back up of my shit before I told Windows to make it into a .old file.

I suppose my question is: Is there an easy way to bring back my old configuration aka, my registry shit.

Or will I have to just suck it up and do it the hard way(aka set it all up again by hand?)

Edit: because I'm wondering exactly what would happen if I just cut and paste the entire Program Files(x86) from the old to the new. And then finding the registry folder and overwriting.

Then again I'm probably better off just sucking it up. Have a feeling that would just make me have to do this alll over again.

 

There are a ton of programs for picking up old file systems provided you didn't reformat. I don't know which one would work for your particular situation, but do a search for file recovery after windows reinstall.

For instance, I got this one that seems like it's worked for a number of people. http://download.cnet.com/EaseUS-Data-Recovery-Wizard-Free/3000-2248_4-75184619.html

 

Cool Thanks. I'll take a look.

I also have an Android Tablet.

Lenovo Yoga 2.

The Chrome on there doesnt seem to have flash. yet the Adobe site detects that its just disabled. It said to go to chrome://plugins to turn it on.

yet when I punch that into the chrome address bar I get:

Webpage not availabe: Error Code: ERR_invalid_URL

I tried googling but I seem to be going in circles with that. Any ideas?

 

Yeah. Download Firefox. Google chrome in tablets doesn't support Flash anymore.
