In order to reinstall windows, you will need a keyboard connected to your EXO PC due to the fact you will need access to some of the keyboard functions that aren’t available on the screens keyboard. In order to reinstall Windows, you will need to press the shift key on your keyboard. While holding down the shift key, there will be a power icon on the bottom right corner of the screen; go ahead and press that as well. From there, you will click the restart button on your screen, followed by troubleshoot, and there you will have the option to reinstall and reset windows.

Booting your device into safe mode will allow Windows to only run essential drivers and nothing extra. If a new driver that you installed is causing the problem, you will be able to tell because the blue screen error will disappear. To turn your device into safe mode, you will need a keyboard. While holding the shift key, press the power icon. Then press troubleshoot, advanced options, and startup settings. Press restart, then select the corresponding number to the selection you would like. In this case, you would like to select the number where it says “Enable Safe Mode.”

If you’re running into a blue screen out of nowhere, it could be because of a new software or application that is causing the problem. Restoring your device to its previous state could show you if it is in fact a new application or software causing the problem.

The PC is only part of the RAM. Making the OS slow or any applications open slow.

One of the first things you should try is to uninstall the RAM and then reinstall it. Ether in the same slot or try another one. It is a rather easy task to do. You just have to be very careful not to damage it. You can follow the steps here.

One thing you can do to check to see why the PC is not using the RAM is check the RAM for damage. It takes very little to damage the RAM chip. One of the best and easiest ways is to use Windows Memory Diagnostic. It is super easy you can follow the steps here.

If nothing else works you will have to just buy a new RAM. This is one of the last steps you should take. You will have to shop around to find the best deals.

The USB port is not responding.

If a USB is inserted into the USB port of an EXO PC and it is not responding on the screen, the first thing you will want to do is test it on other devices first. This will ensure that the problem lies with your EXO PC device rather than the USB stick itself. If the USB is inserted into another device (e.g. laptop, TV) and it does respond on those, then the user will know that the tablet is facing a problem.

You will want to restart the device by pressing and holding the power button on the top left corner of the EXO PC. Restarting the device will reset the device in case there were any glitches that were preventing the device from being able to accept the USB stick.

After restarting the tablet, you will want to check the device manager. Checking the device manager will let the user rule out that the USB is being recognized but just not popping up with a notification when it is inserted into the device. To check the device manager, a user must first click the windows start menu button on the bottom left corner, then click the “control panel” tab on the right side of the menu, click the “hardware and sound” section in the popup menu, choose “device manager” underneath the “devices and printers” category and confirm that the USB is not listed.
