  1. Did you have lately a sluggish internet speed? The following could be a reason why. The folder "$Windows.~BT" hiddes the installation package for Win10 up to 6GB - Microsoft confirmed it. One solution to escape is to remove the folder, disable automatic updates and join the shitstorm :D As a customer, you can only hope they will stop this. But what's their next move? Do you have other tricks to avoid the force of M$? I'm not talking about other systems, since it's no alternative for most people. Please share your knowledge :) Source is in german: http://www.chip.de/news/Vorsicht-mit-Windows-7-8-Zwangs-Update-auf-Windows-10-von-Microsoft_83181075.html
  2. It seems like there is no graphic card listed, then it's probably something like an Intel HD. Then it's definitely college only. You should use Intel graphics only for desktop and 2D games, because such cards and thin laptops are susceptible to overheating, even with medium or low settings. Or do you know what graphic card is built-in? Correct if I'm wrong :D
  3. Microsoft goes crazy. The privacy nightmare known from Windows 10 comes through the update packages KB3022345 and KB3068708 and KB3075249 and KB3080149. Microsoft itself calls it "Diagnostics and Telemetry tracking", to receive some current features from Windows 10. Unmark/Uninstall them to keep your system away from advanced spying. Probably more such packages arrive in the course of time. If you don't care about your privacy, ignore this topic.

  4. For the latest games an i5 6600k is good enough. Games are more GPU oriented. You need i7's for stuff like fast 1080p / 4K video decoding.
  5. Earlier this week I could help an friend with the solution of my first post here. Splitting the computer through a dualboot system. Now he uses Windows for gaming and Gnu/Linux for the rest. At the beginning he was skeptical about that thing, but showing him how easy it works changed his mind. Yes, you have to be a bit tech savy, otherwise you loose your patience :D What Windows 10 really is: http://digitalclaritygroup.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/trap.png
  6. Hey :) Every part of your hardware needs enough power to take full advantage. You can't play with ENB's with an new GPU and an ancient CPU. Bottlenecking is the result. GPU takes care of the pixel job CPU takes care of the calculate job Alternative try this: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/63839/?
  7. Short answer ... Windows 10 ( o ) ( o ) is buggy as hell :D Check your PC for something broken Or try Teracopy http://codesector.com/teracopy
  8. Hi there :-) FPS drops while recording is normal, because Fraps and other recorders are resource hungry. To free up resources you may use a lighter recorder application and close all programs you don't need while gaming. Also disable all bling effects on desktop and keep your system minimalistic. This could fix your other problem as well.
  9. "Make childs to save humanity", but we have more than enough. There's nothing wrong with being gay or lesbian, it's just the way a human feels his life. Tolerating this behavior seems not easy for every part of the world.
  10. Well, every human is different. I would not welcome it, if Microsoft knows and saves everything about me like name, telephone number, location, personal stuff etc. This is probably going to be a data bank of users world wide. Who knows? Plus I doubt turning off the settings really turns it off, since a friend told me his network analyze tools like Wireshark show him more results than ever before. I found a suitable gif-picture for this situation: http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/t_original/1372618229328399206.gif
  11. To avoid installation frustration make sure you grab an LTS-version (current 14.04), because normal versions have security updates only for 9 months. Ubuntu is definitely a great choice, but for an familiar interface like Windows, Zorin OS might be better: http://zorin-os.com/ Before you install the system you can try it from your medium that doesn't touch the hard drive, as long as you don't mount it ;)
  12. what happens without mods? maybe an bad mod or corrupted game ...
  13. It's no easy situation, for everybody. Thus I apologize if I was a bit flashy :) To tell from another perspective: For people who want to upgrade, just turn off what is turned on in the privacy settings and it should be okay for you. Gaming in Gnu/Linux is a vicious circle. People will only switch for much more games. And game developers will only make games for much more users. Just use what's right for you. At the end of the day, it's just a machine.
  14. Use brain booster, these tools just harm the system ...
