Just as I thought, thanks for the replies.

Hi, Is there any way to make Windows not require a password after signing out for offline account? I don't mean auto login process as boot up, I've already enabled this on my offline account for Windows 8.1 but instead I mean after boot up auto login and then I sign out, I am then required to...

Just a thought is Micro$oft working with the NSA on Windows 10 free upgrades? Seems very suspicious to me that all Windows 7/8/8.1 users retail or OEM get a free upgrade to Windows 10 in the first year, that's basically 50% of OS market share if all Windows 7/8/8.1 users upgrade to Windows 10...

I think I'll wait until just be before the first free year upgrade ends to update, this way most if not all drivers will be mature and bug free by and possibly a Windows 10 service pack might come out fixing bugs and any compatibility problems with the initial release of the OS. Coming from...

Just install the driver and not the full software and you'll be fine. Personally I find Intel's RST (driver only) is faster than Windows default SATA driver especially with SATA 300/600 speeds and SSD's, the default MS AHCI driver comes from Vista (yes they still use the same old MS AHCI...

Windows 8 is more forgiving with drivers and software being based off Windows 7 SP1 with a newer kernel updated for the addition of Metro UI. Early betas of Windows 8 looked pretty much identical to Windows 7 with Start Menu and Aero Glass still intact either by default or enabled through...

I got a newer version of Lenovo's Energy Management installed on my system (Lenovo ACPI Power Controller in Device Manager), Windows 8.1 with Update 1 now recognizes that my laptop does not support Fast Startup and automatically disables it regardless of whether I turn on or off Fast Startup in...

Did you buy the card brand new or used from someone? Are you certain the power supply is sufficient for the GTX 660, what is the rated watts of your power supply? Also, does you motherboard's BIOS have a setting to lock the PCI Bus speed at 100Mhz?

Is you power supply sufficient for the GTX 660 graphics card and have you checked to make sure you've connected the external 6-pin PCIe power connector from your power supply to your GTX 660 graphics card?

@ brotherboard Charms top right corner can be disabled via Task Bar properties in Windows 8.1 and charms bottom right corner is not as annoying in Windows 8.1 (default hover time has been increased) as it was in Windows 8 (practically no hover time) which showed up every time you wanted to...

I don't mind waiting, this just means Microsoft has plans to bring another Update 3 to Windows 8.1 presumably 6 months after Update 2 in 2015 which translates to Windows 8.1 is getting a lot of love from Microsoft. Even at it's current state, Windows 8.1 with Update 1 is near perfect OS for...

It's called syncDriver for OneDrive and can be used with Local Accounts on Windows 8.1 on the desktop however it's not been actively in development since Windows 8.1 Preview, version 1.2 was release at the end of July 2013 according to Softpedia download link but the author did change the name...

If you had BSOD's since Windows 7 then it might be a hardware problem assuming your PC was made for Windows 7 and all the correct drivers were installed back then for Windows 7 and you did a clean install of Windows 8/8.1, Windows 8/8.1 is very picky on hardware and your PC's overall stability...

Most BSOD's I've experienced in Windows 8/8.1 comes from outdated drivers and incompatible crucial system software like a laptop's power management software from the vendor not programmed to run for Windows 8/8.1 especially on older hardware. I'm not ruling out the chance that your problem...

Thanks Brink, The Map OneDrive in This PC in Windows 8.1 method is a bit too slow to sync on demand for me. There was small program as an alternative to OneDrive Desktop and the Map OneDrive in This PC in Windows 8.1 method that was developed since Windows 8.1 Preview for Windows 8.1 Desktop...
