Henry 2,374 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 So we can have two screens? Yea, we can have more than one desktop. So you can have one with like work apps open in the background & another with casual stuff etc. You can have as much that can fit at the bottom of your screen.

I'm thinking of having Netflix full screen on one side and then having a general browser on the other side buy bionic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry 2,374 Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 They are starting to finalise features, just making small tweaks here and there to make sure everything works + looks perfect. It's staring to look really good, can't wait for the final release. Even the Edge browser looks good You can visit here for more http://www.winbeta.org/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
honza 2,194 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I used Windows 10 Insider Preview up to the build 10074. In this build Windows Update automatically installs beta drivers by Nvidia for those with an Nvidia GPU, and it's very buggy, and I believe it was the reason why both my laptop and my desktop's GPUs died Come along with me and the butterflies and bees Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

honza 2,194 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 What happens when your GPU dies? If you have a laptop, basically you're f*cked in a desktop PC it can be replaced but my desktop is pretty old and I only used it as a backup, so now I need a new laptop Come along with me and the butterflies and bees Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry 2,374 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Windows 8 ftw bye It's free gurl, grab it while you can. Plus it's better that 8 imo.

I've seen a few messages on my laptop suggesting me to upgrade, but I'm scared that upgrading it will just mess up everything. Like everything. The start menu is way better that the full screen mess on Windows 8, the new multitasking is amazing, the new browser is miles better that Internet Explorer, Cortana is amazing but i'm not sure if many people will use it. Right now i'm using the technical preview and everything works flawlessly. Much faster than Windows 8. And don't worry about upgrading, when you do all your files and stuff stay the same, the only things that might get uninstalled are programs but i'm not sure about that, I think they stay installed. I'm upgrading on release day so i'll tell you if everything goes smoothly. But you don't have to rush to upgrade, you have an entire year to think about it. Maybe you could watch some videos when it comes out and see if it's worth the upgrade or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the screen mess as default on mine, so I'm completely fine with what I have right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that hard Does Ctrl+alt+del open straight up the Task Manager or do you still have an useless transitional screen (implemented in W8) ?

The screen isn't going anywhere (and it's quite useful actually ) If you want the Task Manager closer you can: a) pin it in the Start menub) pin it in taskbarc) right click Start button and click Task Managerd) right click taskbar and click Task Manager Those all work in both 8 and 10 Come along with me and the butterflies and bees Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
