My PC was crashing to randomly striped screens (or sometimes just straight black screen) during intense games. I tried all the normal steps of using DDU to uninstall the drivers and install new ones, refreshed Windows 10, reinstalled Windows 10 completely, checked SSDs for errors, ran MEMTEST...

So the Windows 10 search (which is a huge step back from the "swipe" search from charms on a Surface 3 Pro) has been annoying me lately. Previously, if I clicked the search button and typed in the name of a file it'd pop right up like magic. After the 1607 update it will no longer display the...

I've been using Win8 on my desktop for the past 8 months or so with the RC versions and the past two months from a clean install "upgrade". I still couldn't get used to the lack of a start menu and things. I tried hard, I really did. Now with a $3 program, all is right with the world again...

I bought these SGP Ultra Fine screen protectors (anti-glare and anti-fingerprint) for the Droid Razr or Razr Maxx. The anti-finger print feature is incredible, I just don't like matte appearance as much as I thought I would. SGP Ultra Fine for Motorola Droid Razr They are $16 new. I...

Anyone know where I could buy a digital copy of the film Downfall (2005)? The UK iTunes site has it here: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/movie/downfall/id313594880 But I can't find anywhere to get it in the US. It doesn't have to be iTunes, that was just an example but I'd prefer HD quality.

I just installed Vista Home Premium x64 on my new rig and the option to enable the Thumbnail Preview is grayed out. Anyone know how to re-enable this? It worked great on the 32 bit version I had installed this morning.

Any ideas on keeping dust out of a new computer? My old one seems like it just becomes a haven for cat hair, wife hair, black dust... you name it I've vacuumed it. I looked around and saw a few commercial "wire" type filters. How are you guys keeping your cases clean?

I've finally got the go-ahead from the wife to build a new system. I haven't kept up on any of the new technology, so I'm hoping someone would want to "virtually" spend someone else's money and come up with a system for me. I will be re-using from my old system: monitor (Dell 2405)...
