Oh yeah, I wiped the hard drive, then took a hammer to it.
I don't even throw away dead hard drives that were used in my studio, I just keep them in a box in my garage. Disposing of them is not worth the risk, however infinitesimally small. |

If they don't have errors, I keep them. Otherwise, they get burned.

There are some major differences for sure, but I have trouble getting too worked up about it. Everyone threw a fit when they dumped the start menu in Windows 8, but these days I barely use it. Moving the icons to the middle is definitely very Mac-like, but I'm sure the point is to reduce the amount of mouse movement, and people will get used to that pretty quickly.
Just in general, though, it's hard to care that much anymore. For most people, your web browser has far more to do with your day-to-day computing experience than your OS does. |

And I too remember Microsoft's claim about Windows 10 being the last one. |

Received. Here it is:
https://www.newegg.com/asus-m11ad-us...82E16883220448 I like that case a lot. 16GB max, 2 slots. You don't need 16 so hopefully you just have one stick of 4 installed so we can just add one more for around $20. https://www.amazon.com/4gb-1600mhz-d...mhz+ddr3+sdram DIMM 240-pin Here's your user manual: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/55...sus-M11ad.html Here's a tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIl6mmosgMc MB pic received. One stick is all you need to add to the open slot. And get a can of air and clean out the dust and dirt in there and everywhere else. It's piled on your processor inside it's cooling fan like a sand dune. That can cause heat issues (probably is), unseating, and a myriad of other issues. The fan might not even be spinning up to max speed with all that Arizona in there and up around the post. Shoot, try that first and see if it improves things. Ideally, you'll want to remove the fan during cleanup. An air compressor works great! MS Edge uses far less RAM too. I've been real happy with Edge. Last edited by eDave; 06-16-2021 at 09:41 PM.. |
