    Looking for multiboot video

    Sounds like a segment from an old show called "The Screen Savers". The guy installed every version of Windows up to XP, some distros of Linux I can't remember, and maybe some variants of BSD. He used XOSL to boot and manage each OS partition.

    Now that Windows 10 Free Upgrade is over... does 7 still nag you?

    No. I think MS released an update that removed GWX, and that was nearly two years ago.

    Google Shutting Down goo.gl URL Shortener Next Year

    At least they're not pulling a Photobucket, which pretty much killed thousands of useful, illustrated online guides.

    Microsoft Admits It Incorrectly Upgraded Some Windows 10 Users To V1709

    That... doesn't really work anymore. Somehow, Windows will sneakily reenable that service to download more crap you don't need (for example, this recent feature update). 3-4 gigabytes of bandwidth needlessly wasted. I've created a scheduled task that ensures that the WU service is OFF and...

    New Motherboard & No Backup

    2nded. Ever since Vista (I think), it's not necessary to reinstall the OS from scratch after moving to a different board. At minimum you'll need to update some drivers (might be necessary to boot into safe mode first to remove everything from the device manager) and reactivate Windows, and that...

    Windows - 64 bit only?

    Server 2008 R2 Core had the option to disable WOW64 support. I think it was the only Windows SKU that had this option (can't speak for Servers 2012/2016 editions and their derivatives). Then again, you're stuck with a cmd or powershell-only interface, so you're SOL if you want a 64bit-exclusive...

    Windows 7 -> Windows 10 Key to Use Later

    So I did this trick with a few Win7 keys I've had laying around for the past couple of months. Out of curiosity, I reverted my Windows 10 VM again today (post-free upgrade period) and used one of the older Windows 7 keys I "pre-activated." Sure enough, I got my digital entitlement again once I...
