https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10 assuming you are on another windows machine...just d/l iso and make a bootable stick/dvd but that's an interesting bit of info.. about the win7 key not being valid (for win7). it shouldn't be invalid... if it's retail. also saw this.. make sure you didn't enter a typo. https://www.bleepingcomputer.c

emet is free. mbae was free. integrated mb 3 isn't. ghacks says you can re-install the old mbae after you install mb 3... if you can find the old installer. also mentioned some perpetual beta version of mbae in future. alas. no reason for me to use mbae so far, and whilst i know emet will be discontinued next year, i'll cross that bridge when it comes to that. i only ever use mbam to manually scan once in a while. if emet and mbae does similar things, logically

incidentally... it interferes with emet (well.. anti-exploit part). it crashed my firefox earlier upon installation - the trial version (aka all the components) is activated immediately as opposed to asking if you want to activate the trial during thte installation process. you can deactivate the trial prematurely (no idea if it can be taken up again in future)

i don't think the supermarket is asking the country to change its name. some idiot from the supermarket tried to stop icelandic companies from using the word iceland (and actually won some cases in courts) XD bt has been using homehub as the name of its brick since it started doing home adsl all those years back. who knows if they've trademarked it. that said, they are calling the new version smart hub instead... what phone now? XD they'll probably g

out of curiousity, if you use google translate for your commercial product, do you need to pay them? XD i read an article the other day about google using neural network to make their translation method to be more contextual and accurate. ms is apparently going along similar path. forgot where i originally read it from, but the google blog article does highlight how much better the effect is. https://research.googleblog.com/2016/09/a-neural-network-for-machine.html

[quote who="leiavoia" reply="6" id="3657848"] On food: totally agree. You would think space-faring races would have figured out the food issue by then. I think it's a hold-over concept from terrestrial strategy games. [/quote] in which case, surely there should be no food resource at all then? or at least no starvation, with food being productivity/morale booster / migration factor. (absolutely no idea what system is in gc3, just generic mumblings)

(misread) does your kb have drivers (from hp)? try loading latest of those maybe? or does it still get overwritten after regularly because ms for whatever reason thinks it doesn't have proper drivers and dump their load in?

ah.. i wasn't too concerned about making a link. (wasn't even trying to make one.. XD, kinda hate links) i assume people know how to highlight it and open in new/same tab if needed. did notice the forum looked different though.

tdr.. some vid driver related thingy in windows that's supposed to protect the system... so it just crashes the driver rather than the whole thing. but for me.. the monitor goes to sleep instead xD https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff570087(v=vs.85).aspx

... sleep when idle? (check power saving modes) driver problem that somehow kills the display (but everything else work) until reboot? my nvidia 970 occasionally does that upon exiting full screen games.. especially swtor.. which is why i don't touch that anymore... the monitor still pumps out sound but no display... something to do with tdr no idea. XD

someone released the attack code used to knock off krebs a while back. same stuff. don't need geniuses. iot is a waste of space. buy a hub thing.. if it needs to phone home, then give it a couple of years and it's more useless than a paperweight. people talk about iot saving energy like let smart washing machines to do their stuff when energy tarriff is cheap and all... or some external brain syncing/staggering those jobs. it doesn't really. you can't ju

but it doesn't have to be. it's a deliberate strategy to make cost of ink the primary earner rather than machine, by making cartridges more and more complicated to stop others from selling good old simple ink. anyway. they backtracked a bit http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-37503139 security issue arises only because they start putting chips into the ink parts. if ink i
