The first big windows 10 update is coming out this Tuesday so it might get fixed then. I'm hoping it fixes my headphone issue. It's getting a bit annoying to make 5 clicks to change my audio output every time I swap from speakers to headphones. I never realized I swapped between the 2 as often as I do on my laptop. It doesn't affect my pc or lady's laptop either. It's odd how 1 or 2 issues are unique to each computer.

BTW if you haven't turned off background apps, do that to save some PC resources.. and your privacy. Go to the search icon or bar at the bottom left of the screen and type in: privacy You'll get the windows 10 settings screen. Turn off the background apps you don't want or need at all and set all your privacy settings in all the categories on the left: Its the one big issue I have with Windows 10. It can detect that I'm using a PC and works as a desktop OS, but it still keeps all the apps running by default. My PC has no contacts list, phone dialer, apps that need these other apps, text messaging, etc. Gotta turn them all off and then check this list after any big windows updates in case more got added to the list.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Official Trailer 2 [HD]
Sledgstone replied to Sledgstone's topic in Movies, TV & Books
That video is great. That one part: "Like a good butler.." got me laughing pretty good. I hated Eisenberg as Lex Luthor in this movie. Worst portrayal of the character ever. And this video covered the first thing I thought of too.. Just fly around really fast and x-ray vision everything. Superman is so damn powerful he could have probably smelled the shampoo she used and tracked her down within 5 minutes. -
I love that video. Heres how the fight with Abaddon went down and the scene at the end were Kormir takes all the god powers. She doesn't discuss it with anyone and just helps herself. The player character just stands there mute in shock because shes so greedy. I know I was complaining. I wanted that power for my guy. btw theres a friendly Mursaat in this video. It was actually an Asuran summon. One of their cultural skills lets them turn a polymock piece into an animated creature resembling an enemy in the game. We also had summoning stones in the game where we could summon a friendly npc to battle with us. I miss those things but they're not needed in GW2 considering its fully open world while GW1 was all instanced content.

Is your router an 802.11ac? You could update that at the same time and have a beastly wifi signal.

We're getting a new Battlefield UI with Battlefield 1, but we'll get to see the beta of it in BF4: This is pretty cool. I like the concept but I doubt that many people will actually keep all these Battlefield games installed simultaneously considering how much space each takes up on a limited hard drive like a PS4's 500 GB. https://www.battlefield.com/news/article/new-battlefield-ui

Damn. I had some issues with my upgrades but nothing like that. I did have a black screen issue with only a mouse cursor on a Dell laptop and some problems on my Sony laptop but almost everything gets resolved for me by uninstalling or disabling the pc manufacturers specific software that came pre-installed on my pc from the windows 7. Open task manager, click on the start up tab and disable anything from your pc manufactor except for maybe a touch pad app if you have a TouchPad. Then reboot and see if it fixes anything. Amazingly enough lady's laptops graphic issues got resolved by uninstalling the dell audio software and having win 10 install default audio drivers. Worst case scenario you should be able to roll back to windows 7. http://www.howtogeek.com/220723/how-to-uninstall-windows-10-and-downgrade-to-windows-7-or-8.1/ Edit: In task manager you can organize by publisher. For my sony laptop I had to disable the sony stuff (right click and click on disable, then reboot to kick it out of the system): That ISBmgr.exe one gave me endless battery errors that caused a prompt to refresh onto my screen every couple seconds and forced me into hibernation mode if I ever hit ok on the window. x_x It was the same with Lady's dell. The more Dell software I disabled the better the system performed. Also, it looks more like you're having limited wifi connection issues with that packet loss which is why GW2 is kicking you out to the login screen. Your graphics drivers are probably fine. I found this video that might help: Google search your PC's model number along with windows 10 wifi. Since win 10 has been out for a year I was able to find most of the solutions to the issues I came across on random PC support forums. Thats how I was able to find out about the dell audio driver issue. I'd have never figured out that audio driver was causing the issue because that particular driver wasn't in the start up in task manager and it doesn't even have dell in the name of the driver.

Powered by the same GPU as the Nvidia Shield and a couple smart phones and chromebooks, (and not as powerful as current gen consoles or even close to gaming PCs), the Nintendo NX will use the Nvidia Tegra as a GPU/CPU combo for a handheld console with detachable controllers. It will also come with a home base that you can plug into to play the console on the TV. It will still play cartridges. My guess is that it will look like the Wii U controller, except with detachable nunchuck controllers on the sides. I would photoshop something to look like that but I need a new photo editing program. ehh. The Tegra is a decent chip, but I don't see Nintendo competing with Sony or Microsoft at this point anymore. Its like they are doubling down on their handheld market, which makes sense to me. They know how to make good handhelds and they sell. But if this is all true it seems a bit too gimmicky to me. The Wii and Wii U was all targeted at families and party games, but this is obviously targeted toward individuals and solo players. If the screen is the normal size of a cell phone and its meant to run games all the time, I wonder how hot the thing will get and if it'll need to be recharged every 2 hours.

After researching a bunch of information on graphics cards over the last 6 months, I've read numerous articles about how Windows 10 will have much better support for games that utilize DX12. Heres just one link from Nvidia: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/dx12/windows-10 The last day to upgrade is only a few days away.. and my laptop's windows 7 is having windows update errors like a bastard. If anyone reading this is planning on upgrading still, make sure you're still getting windows updates and that the little windows 10 icon doesn't have an exclamation point on it indicating a compatibility error. Resolve the issues now or you'll be scrambling like I have been for the last couple days trying to get a damn laptop to upgrade. I should have done this months ago. This is what I get for procrastinating. x_x Edit: I got my upgrades done. yay. I'm really shocked Dell stopped supporting its laptops from only a few years ago. I had such a pain in the ass with old drivers causing issues. My sony vaio updated nicely, except for a battery error caused by an unsupported driver that was easily removed.

That must be his longest video ever. x_x He made some great points about Ogden. I never understood why he wasn't traveling with us and Trahearne during these dragon fights.. He is literally immortal, incredibly strong and has been alive since Guild Wars 1 researching how to kill dragons. But he just stays in the Durmond Priory reading books. wtf. Hes the last Dwarf too that we know of.. on the surface that is. The rest of the dwarves that became immortal rock dwarves and survived the great destroyer battle are probably still alive deep underground fighting Primordus's minions for the last 250 years since Guild Wars 1 ended. I still hope that regular Dwarves escaped being put thru that rock ritual and have villages somewhere way up north. WP has so much speculation in that video.
