  1. Does this happen immediately, or at all times, with this monitor or it is fine after a while and then slowly become like this? The first thing would be to try a different cable or display. If you can't then you need to see if this issue happens using other "drivers" or OS. Does this effect happen in the BIOS, or during boot? You can also try booting a Linux live-cd which would use its own video drivers, to see how that looks. The appropriate term is ghosting. Be aware if when you search for this on your own, to put in your search terms LCD, and also to make sure what you are reading is not referring to motion blur or ghosting issues due to motion.
  2. Welcome to the MSFN!
  3. Trying to use a third party solution is going to put you in the same situation as discussed in this thread: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/176080-deezer-recorder/ You will need to read the Terms of Service for the site you are using, or use that site's offline option if they offer it. If the site does not offer an offline option and their ToS does not prohibit downloading the files, and it is legal to do so, then you can look for solutions.
  4. Makes sense to me!
  5. The unknown doesn't match to that. It shows a .08% increase on unknown. I'm sure there is a way to look at all of the different things to see which other platform had the greatest increase. They don't have combined mobile/desktop chart but it looks like Android got a health increase in the percentage.
  6. It exists but is against that website's TOS. Look at Article 13: http://www.deezer.com/legal/cgu
  7. The original upgrading software.
  8. I have not been able to see either of those processes running in Task Manager in these scenarios: - Pro 1511, Audit Mode, no internet connection - Pro 1511, local user, no internet connection, not activated - Pro 1511, local user, internet connection, not activated I can try 1607, but I can't do a test with a system activated right now.
  9. Consider this. It is a program that can be used to do an upgrade install of your OS. Just imagine that as a malware attack vector.
  10. I will try that out tomorrow and see if it matters. The system I had checked is a custom image, who knows what the client changed. I can check on a fresh install too. What OS versions are you seeing this on?
  11. Dencorso's link mentions FindFast, the first thing I thought of when seeing this topic title. I remember having that issue on Win9x/NT4 systems.
  12. I went to check a Win10 system I have here, it does not have either of those processes running.
  13. Sorry 143 days. Anyways, I doubt you will be able to find a real world computer to use as a comparison to yours. Everything I said before still stands, it is not the fault of the OS.
  14. I knew I remembered this topic or a topic like it existed. I was just checking my system uptime and... well I see that the two sets of numbers do not seem to match up. I wonder if one could be wrong, or if there is a roll-over on the Days counter on the Performance tab... System Idle Process hours 13636 (568 days) vs Uptime in Performance tab: 143 days.
  15. You didn't. I used an example and you make it sound like that is all this PC is used for. In fact, I have found this PC has been on without a restart for nearly a year prior to stopping to use it to play games.
  16. Well when I am not home, it doesn't need to be doing anything. How are we supposed to compare computers? Do I need to post a list of installed programs? Why would it matter? No it isn't just being used for reminders. What is it that your computer is doing when you are not home?
  17. I see my install as Feb 20, 2010. It is 32bit. It is my main computer as far as productivity goes. I no longer play games on it, made a new computer for that and it is 64bit. It is on 24/7 as long as there is power. I use it as a way to communicate with myself by way of AOL. Using 2 accounts I can IM myself things to look at later, send reminders to do things. Also able to verify the status of things in my home... basically if my other AOL account is signed in, it means I have power and internet. Of course, I realise that every computer is different and everyone uses them differently. I often see people say things like how Windows will corrupt itself, or get slow after too much time and you need to reinstall. This simply isn't true. All it shows is that a person is not using their computer properly, and are in a repeating pattern of this bad behaviour which results in their needing to reinstall often. People also often tend to ignore the little things their OS may do, the warning signs of something coming down the road. And they do this until the thing becomes unusable. If you ever helped a friend or family with their computer, usually you find they wait until the thing is totally broken before they do something about it. In my experience, my most common cause for an issue is hardware related. If I am to install a program and it does not work properly, or causes some problem and I cannot find a way to resolve it, I don't use it. I only keep things installed that have some use. I do not update unless it is required for operation (and no alternative can be found) or for a security related issue that can actually impact me personally. I do not use websites or portions of websites that require me to sacrifice my browser's security (and thus my OS) ever, and I use different browsers for different services and purposes. That is probably the best way I can put it.
  18. I've had no problems. I run a Win7 Pro x86 with no antivirus (MSSE barely counts) daily with no major issues or need for reinstall or system restore. Of course, on all my PCs my browsers run with scripting disabled by default. Windows 8 and 10 are designed to be online. Even the Embedded versions need an internet connection at some point.
  19. Welcome to the MSFN!
  20. Was it ever tested to find out whether or not all installs of Office 365 on Windows 7 does this?
  21. What happens for me, is that the clicking the next page bring the page back to the top, then refreshes the page automatically.
  22. This board uses ECC unbuffered memory. Make sure the RAM you are using is of this type. Google Cache manual (no pictures) If you are ready to throw away a board, there is no harm experimenting on it. LGA771 based server boards and CPUs are still good if you need to replace on the cheap.
  23. Xper's annoucement topic, which was made maybe 20 hours ago, shows 2 different times. It says the topic was posted 6 hours ago, and that it was started 31 minutes ago. It cannot be the case, as my like on the post is retained and I had done that 15 hours ago. Mcinwwl's post here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/173752-how-to-avoid-being-upgraded-to-win-10-against-your-will/?page=22#comment-1129300 Still says it was posted September 14th. Now that it is the 14th here, it should say x hours ago, not showing today's date. Anyways, weird date issues aside, everything seems ok so far.
  24. For Windows 7/Server 2012/R2 (presumably 2016 also) sel disk 0 clean convert gpt create part efi size=100 format quick fs=fat32 label="System" assign letter=s create part msr size=128 create part pri format quick fs=ntfs label="Windows" assign letter=w exit For Windows 10 sel disk 0 clean convert gpt create part efi size=260 format quick fs=fat32 label="System" assign letter="s" create part msr size=16 create part pri shrink minimum=500 format quick fs=ntfs label="Windows" assign letter="w" create part pri format quick fs=ntfs label="Recovery" assign letter="r" set id="de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac" gpt attributes=0x8000000000000001 exit Some things to note. These are designed for diskpart from Windows 10 ADK. Some older versions of diskpart would not auto-select a newly created partition. In case you are using an older diskpart, you would need to add "sel part x" between the "create" and "format" commands. So in the Win10 script, it would be sel part 1, 3, 4.
  25. We apparently had a rollback and lost some posts. If you didn't see the two scripts I posted yesterday, I can post them again.
