    Windows 10 What the hell? Sounds usually slowed down to 10-20% of normal!

    For most of the last several days, my computer's sound output (using nVidia GeForce GTX 750) has been slowed down by 80 or 90%! How can that possibly happen? Usually a reboot doesn't fix the problem. Even when I run the audio troubleshooter, the sound frequencies remain absurdly low. At one...

    WMP Volume issues

    I listen to my CD's every morning, but have a volume issue. My wife sleeps in the next room, so I have to keep the volume way down. On some of my CD's that means setting the volume at 14 on my PC . On most, it means setting the volume at 2. Not much wiggle room at 2 and even that is too loud...

    Windows 7 Uninstalling stuff on Win 7...

    On my XP Pro it is possible to actually uninstall junk (both apps I install and the bloatware M$ pre-installed). How about with Win 7? Been doing a flurry of Google research trying to get familiar with this OS, before my PC arrives from eBay. So far as I can tell, with Win 7 the word 'uninstall'...

    I ditched Windows 10 TP 10049 lasr night for good. It's really beginning to appear to me that Microsoft has lost it's focus, since 2015 got here. The 2 builds of Windows 10 have both had bug's that really shouldn't be there. Mail, Calendar & People haven't worked on either without the end user...

    Title basically says it all: WMP on my machine decided to stop playing my collection of DRM protected WMV files. And since WMP is the only player that can play back these files, my video collection has become basically useless. And yes, all the files were purchased legally. Figure I'd post...
