• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    What's the worst luck you all have had in the silicon lottery?

    Don't think I have every had a really bad one in regards to overclocking. Have had to work on some more than others though. It is more of a not getting a "golden sample" for the most part.

    Online based FAX setup - please help

    Looks like most of the "free" ones have a limit of 10 pages total or less for free www.fax.plus says 10 pages in one place but then 30 pages in their comparison page. If you need to receive faxes, you have to go to a paid plan. It seems like it would be fairly simple to set up. For rolling...

    Microsoft Hears You And Wants To Change

    I've never used Game Bar. I'll have to see about HDR. I've never been impressed with the built in HDR stuff in Windows 11 and I am using true 10-bit monitors that support real HDR.

    Is Adobe worth it anymore?

    I've been using Affinity since they first released it for PC. For raw photo processing it is great. I've also done some vector graphic stuff as well as some regular Photoshop type stuff. Has always worked fine for me and has improved quite a bit over the earlier releases.

    Is Adobe worth it anymore?

    https://www.affinity.studio/ There ya go. Affinity was originally for Apple only and then a few years ago they released their software for Windows. Canva recently bought them and made it free. Adobe has not been worth it ever since they went to the dumb subscription model. They even killed...

    Microsoft Hears You And Wants To Change

    Desktop Experience is one of basic install options. What really sucked is when MS had the whole Server Core that didn't even have the option to install a GUI except for a really hacky way of sort-of getting a GUi and it still sucked and a bunch of stuff still had to be done through the CLI.

    Nope, they are sealed. I have bought them before. The license key stickers are there and have to be revealed by scratching them off. And $50 is more than I have been able to get them for previously. I guess I'll find out if I have any issues with installing anything I normally use.

    $50 on eBay for a sealed OEM 16-core license. I use Backblaze and the regular unlimited subscription will not work on Server OSes. So I will be backing everything up to one of my storage servers and have a Windows 11 VM be the backup system. If it is connected to the Windows 11 VM via iSCSI...

    Windows 11 taskbar search box not working

    I have a WMI repair script you can try. Way different and more thorough than any of the stuff posted online. It may fix it, it may not. There are a few other things that can fix it, such as resetting the icon cache. Open up an admin command prompt and feed it these commands: taskkill /F /IM...

    Microsoft Hears You And Wants To Change

    I've actually ordered a copy of Server 2025 Standard to put on my main / gaming PC. None of this AI trash, no OneDrive to deal with. No forced MS account. No XBOX crap. No having to go through the OOBE every time a new feature update is released. Way less default services. The only "downside"...

    I dunno about that. SP3 killed a lot of performance on XP when it was the current OS.
