If I do a repair from the win 7 disc will I lose everything

[eaglepi]

I'm not sure what is on the win 7 disc repair or upgrade? I had a Microsoft tech work on my system remotely to fix a updates problem. I was unable to download any updates, he was able to fix that and many updates were installed.

After he was done and I rebooted I started to notice that if I wasn't working on my computer my monitors would go to sleep ever hour on the hour ( I believe that I have a tread about my monitors ) but like I said if I don't touch my computer or stop working on it at 3:50 PM at 4:50 PM,5:50PM,6:50PM and so on.

I think the tech changed something or maybe the updates caused the monitor issue. I know there is a way to repair Win7 and from what I read it says none of my programs ,documents,desktop shortcut etc.

Can someone explain exactly what happens when and if I put the Win7 disc in and boor from it and chose repair.
I just want to make sure I am not worse off than I am now if I do this repair.


Any input is much appreciated.

Yes you have a thread about your monitors http://www.sevenforums.com/general-discussion/372845-having-issue-where-my-monitors-going-sleep.html and never cared to answer if the Group Policy method would fix it. Did you even try it?

I'm sorry I thought I did come back and say it didn't work. I forgot you asked about the group policy but I came back to tell you what my graphic card was. Since I forgot to answer that question I wanted to come back and post the answer about my graphics card and I forgot to answer the other question about group policy.

Yes I did try it and I came back and told you I did.. You are right with all my issues a fresh install is the only right way of fixing my system. I appreciate all your attempts to help me.
