Yep, my feet are still above ground, and daisies are still under them. 😎 I first contacted New Zealand police on July 1, 2009. I posted a running narration the texts of those conversations as it was happening in the hidden Mod forum, and I shared the experience with my family and local...

Boomer - The link to my song still works. I wrote it in 2006, and if you ever listened to the lyrics, what scares me is that they're as true and relevant, today, if not more so. Who's Watching Over Who's Watching Over You? Words and Music by Harvey Rubens Copyright © 2006 Verse 1: I see men...

I read the article about AT shutting down and I had to drop by. To quote the Beatles (if you're old enough to remember them), "I don't know why you say, Goodbye. I say, Hello." It's been far too long. For those who don't remember me, Russ and I were the first AnandTech Forum Admins. When we...

HEADS UP! New Avast AV version has major conflicts that can eat your machine.

Last Tuesday (2-7-2017) Avast released a new version of Avast AV, ver. 7.1.3394.0. The new version installed OK on my 32 bit XP machines, but on reboot, my 64 bit Win 10 system, it killed almost all functions. I'm glad I follow my own advice and my drive was fully cloned so it was just a minor...

RIP Russ, NCNE (Moderator Approved)

In 1997, Anand Lal Shimpi was a fifteen year old highschool whiz kid whose tech review site and forums were just bursting to prominence online, which was all the more exceptional because of Anand's age. I was a member of his forum - singular - because it was a single threaded discussion board...

***OFFICIAL*** Republican National Convention thread ***CONFIRMED***

Thanks. I've been here, but as a senior admin, I spend more time cleaning up after spammers and other malicious idiots. They're enough to keep our crew busy. In case anyone doesn't remember where I'm at on the subject...

***OFFICIAL*** Republican National Convention thread ***CONFIRMED***

It could be that Trump is tone deaf. If so, his best defense would be the truth -- He is of "unsound" mind. ^_^

***OFFICIAL*** Republican National Convention thread ***CONFIRMED***

The brown nosed tea tard sycophants attempting to defend Trump's unauthorized use of Queen's copyrighted work probably don't have a clue that Freddie Mercury was gay, out and proud of who he was. Somehow, I doubt whether Freddie Mercury and the surviving members of the band would want their...

If NOT reverting from Win 10 to Win 7, which files/folders can be deleted?

A friend upgraded her HP laptop from Win 7 to Win 10, and she asked me to go through it to review her new setup. I did the usual, updating her AV, anti-spyware and other resources and scanned her drive, and it looked pretty good and stable. This machine has a 330 GB drive with the three...

Win7 ---> Win10 question

To date, I have attempted to upgrade six Win 7 machines to Win 10, four laptops and two desktops, with two successes and two failures, both via the online upgrade and using the previously downloaded bootable DVD or USB installation drive. Before starting, I downloaded all the latest drivers...

Richard, I was thinking more in terms of building an entirely new system on a more standard motherboard, but I'm glad you worked it out to your best advantage. :thumbsup:
