Windows 10, one year later?

Like I said in my earlier response, I initially thought I misunderstood too and did a double take. The guy said that "Windows 10 is free for a year." I asked him to clarify what that meant - whether he means that it's free (for good) if upgraded during the first year or that that MS will start...

Windows 10, one year later?

I doubted it too until I heard and had it confirmed. Everything I had read on the topic seems to state that if upgraded during the first year, Windows 10 would be supported free of any fees for the duration of its supported life. I even thought that I misunderstood the first person with whom...

I didn't enter a product key during the clean install. I skipped the step. It's supposed to activate once Windows is installed.

I did not. I wanted to use a local user account when logging into Win 10.

Absolutely. Upgraded to Windows 10, activated without a hitch.

Windows 10, one year later?

I know that this has been a matter of some debate and the subject of many articles on and off line, but I'm bringing it up anyway. The reason: unable to activate Windows 10 (clean install after initial upgrade from Windows 7), I called Microsoft a few days ago only to be told to let it sit...

Changing the look/color of the mouse "sonar" in Windows

Hi folks, I kinda doubt that anyone will be able to answer this, but I'll try anyway. The Mouse Properties window [in Windows 7 in my case] has an option to show the location of the mouse pointer when the CTRL key is pressed. Enabling it shows a sonar-like "diminishing" circle around the...

Computer doesn't start up after Catalyst install... what's wrong?

Happy to say computer works beautifully. The M4 is ridiculously fast with this setup. Thought it was too much money to spend on a drive but it's worth every penny. I hope the performance doesn't degrade much over time.

Maaan, I'm such an imbecile! As it turns out, once the drivers were installed, display output was switched to the monitor I thought wasn't connected. It looks to be fine. I need a drink.

Computer doesn't start up after Catalyst install... what's wrong?

Hmmm... Interesting idea. It didn't occur to me because I normally have two monitors connected to this PC, so one will at least come on but right now the second one's dc'd. Still, when a monitor isn't active, it tends to go into power-save mode. Mine didn't, which should mean it's still...
