  1. Ran into a weird thing today. Doing a test so we can write instructions for end user. Computer needs network driver installed. Install driver, Smart Screen says can't connect to the internet. OK I need to connect to the internet in order to install the driver that lets me connect to the internet.
  2. Windows 10 can and should only go up from here. We are past EOL (End of License) for Windows 7, meaning that you cannot buy a new computer with Windows 7 pre-installed on it anymore. Except some circumstances, but they would not end up making any difference in those OS charts.
  3. OK good. NoelC pointed out the one I had in my signature wasn't working anymore. I just updated it to one that works.
  4. This doesn't work anymore.
  5. I think it was cached. It showed up for me but when I tried to view the image itself, I got an error from Photobucket. If it helps Drugwash or anyone else browse the forum easier, I put that picture on Imgur now instead. As for why someone would use Photobucket, it is not an ideal choice today to use to put your pictures. But in the early 2000s (when I made my account) it was great. So I have over 10 years of images in there. Often I do send new pictures to Imgur instead.
  6. Photobucket's ads come from their domain and are not picked up by ad-blockers. Even with just allowing scripting on the two required domains to allow for the GUI and uploading to work (photobucket and pbsrc or whatever) the site is super slow and often times doesn't finish loading. The ads come through in large pop-up windows (like the 90s ) from their domain. Photobucket is also at fault for an incorrect load order. I've seen it on Yahoo as well, where they prioritize loading of advertisements (which are sometimes movies) before GUI components.
  7. What is your starting point? aka what software is your community running on?
  8. Raiden89 and Carlitosoo555, you are not moderators. There is nothing wrong with the post so just leave it alone.
  9. It shows pink for me, using Palemoon. Edit1: My first thought was it was using my Windows color choice (red), but I changed it and it doesn't seem to be that. Edit2: It was the secondary theme color was changed to something else. I changed it back to what I normally use and its fine.
  10. The client always has a say about it, but in a lot of cases it is easier to just set it to get an address automatically. Usually, the only times I will set a static IP is if the DHCP is having a problem, outside of any advanced firewall rules. You determine what the IP Range that is used in the DHCP Scope is, then you set an address outside of it so to not cause a conflict. There are also some setups where DHCP is not used at all, and all interfaces have a static IP. Neither are wrong, it just depends on the design of the network.
  11. You make the request here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/71610-you-want-to-change-your-username/
  12. Those appear to be "QD" or Quadruple Density: http://www.hardware-bastelkiste.de/floppy.html Even so, that HD is actually meaning High Density. Here is a baseball card set, 2001 Topps HD: http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/1497/cid/282642/2001-Topps-HD-12-Cal-Ripken-Jr.
  13. HD had been a tag word before, during the first run of HD 1080i TVs in the late 90s, early 2000s.
  14. No I don't think that is it at all. MS has effectively abandoned Windows 7 from a support perspective years ago. Windows 8/8.1 you can put into that boat also. They will want to get as many people as possible onto Windows 10. Don't be surprised if we see more upgrade actions on Win7/8.1 systems. I could imagine that in a couple months there would be a notification saying they could upgrade to Windows 10 at a discount for the holidays.
  15. I'm wondering how useful those tags really are...
  16. Welcome to the MSFN!
  17. I had just a thought about this the other day. We are past the free upgrade period, but what has it been replaced with? It seems now there is no upgrade option. It would be silly to think that MS would do all this work to change Windows Update to allow in-place upgrade from Windows 7 and 8.1 to Windows 10 just to disable the upgrade thing when the free period ended. No I think it would make more sense that it would still remain and get replaced by one where you could purchase the upgrade. That doesn't seem like it exists right now which is kinda surprising.
  18. Thread closed.
  19. 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.

  21. 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.
  22. Makes sense to me!
  23. 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.
  24. It exists but is against that website's TOS. Look at Article 13: http://www.deezer.com/legal/cgu
