  1. But I don't even know what process is using the ssd. it is just called "SYSTEM". this is not the first time I'm having this issue, but it is the first time on this laptop.
  2. nope. This is really a clean install. just drivers and mozilla firefox
  3. Well I did the trim with ssd tweaker pro (corsair utility refused to install, complained about not being w7 sp1) but nothing has changed. System is still doing weird I/O. I'm losing my mind over this.
  4. where can I find trim? on Windows 8.1 it is under disk defrag, but I can't find it on vista
  5. I don't know what to do. My hdd activity light is flasing so rapidly and I have no idea why. Superfetch is turned off, indexing is turned off, defender is turned off, WU is turned off yet "SYSTEM" is making huge amounts of I/O operations. This is a clean install mind you with esu updates, no extended kernel yet installed. the laptop is also slow compared to windows 8.1. opening a browser takes around 6-11 seconds (Mozilla firefox 52) compared to almost instantly on 8.1. Any help is welcome EDIT: HDD defrag is also disabled
  6. Why? it is basically Vista sp3. I dont like everything they did in w7, but w7 was not a bad os. everything that is not Windows 10 is good in my book
  7. Well I randomly ran into this thread so why not to share my desktop too https://prnt.sc/w4n5am
  8. How? When I boot up my computer I use for work, immediately my ram usage is through the roof. https://prnt.sc/w4n0xu
  9. I had this exact issue in 2011, but service pack 1 fixed it. Do you have sp1 installed? Sorry I've misread the begining.
  10. Well battle.net is one of the biggest enemies of mine. all games including overwatch would otherwise work, but some really smart dick in blizzard said no Vista.
  11. Well that's true, but there are plenty of workarounds for Windows 8.1. Windows 7 does not work curiously enough. No missing api error, but photoshop will not open.
  12. Well you can still run minecraft even on windows 98 until microsoft kills off this old launcher. I hate to think that this is like 4th game I know that doesn’t work only because of game launcher and not the game itself..
  13. They are, but no laptop with compatible cpu and other drivers exists. These gpus came with 6th or 7th gen intel cpus.
  14. Why photoshop? I have 2020 photoshop on Windows 8.1 and it runs natively ok. Solidworks I have no idea, but if it uses direct x12, you should definitely take the same brute force way like I did, just try it, copy random files and it might work
  15. I cannot really express how angry am I. lets hope that extended kernel 32bit will be here soon. https://prnt.sc/w2viz0 You can fake your os version to minecraft launcher via application verifier. New launcher will download with this result: https://prnt.sc/w2vmjy
  16. Am I the only one who likes Windows 8's metro?

      Not quite. I too like Windows 8's Metro, but I hate the Start screen. Add Aero Glass and Classic Shell and everything's going to look perfect!

      Well I like vanilla Windows 8.1 (not so much windows 8) including start screen etc.. Recently I started to use aero glass, but that's it. I like ribbon ui in windows explorer, I like squared off edges, I like how colorful the whole os really is.

      I'm on of the few who uses the startscreen, but I like the idea of having fullscreen apps (they should have really let people choose if they want to use start menu or start screen and windowed uwp apps should have been there too).

      I also like the metro UI (kinda) but hate the full-screen start menu concept and fulllscreen apps on a desktop.

  17. No, though the game has no checks for Windows 8.1 so it does let me select ray tracing. Whenever I select that, the game locks up. I need to sign off to gain control of my pc again then. I don't think rtx will be possible on non windows 10 computers, but I could be wrong.
  18. About the same as with windows 7 and its d3d12on7. getting 60 - 70 fps with rtx 2060 on medium. On windows 10 You can expect high at 60-80 fps. But this is just the beginning, I'm glad it started and runs reasonably ok. I don't have to use crapdows 10
  19. I'm happy to report, that Cyberpunk 2077 is playable on Windows 8.1 with this https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/releases though I played for 2 hours and I experienced gpu hang once.
  20. Yeah, well I need to reinstall vista anyway. My installation is broken AF. it takes like 50 seconds to boot on ssd..
