Over 200 native uEFI/GPT installs over 5 years ... 0 issues

Will prob be the weekend...... Win 10 install was a nightmare....... It somehow split it across the M2 and a hard drive..... Part of the reason I don't have a 2nd drive inserted when I install any Windows OS, especially with native uEFI/GPT storage boot. I have ... - Only the "first fixed disk...

I uninstalled all Valve games in Steam offline mode, then go back to online mode ... and now Steam is working correctly again with the stop/start downloads. Interesting ...

Re: Looks like Steam hosed itself ... any way to update outside of Steam?

In the Elite Launcher, I disabled the two (2) Cache options under "Options" and disabled my Anti-Virus (Avast) for 10 minutes. That seems to have fixed it. Ten (10) minutes left to download. EDIT: Re-enabled A/V, doesn't appear to be the issue as the Elite Launcher is still syncing files.

Re: Looks like Steam hosed itself ... any way to update outside of Steam?

Duh, it's right there in the Launcher ... "Update." Trying now ... does it freeze too? Window is unresponsive after hitting "Upgrade". Maybe I have an issue with my D: (where Steam is at). No, wait, I have Elite under C: (C:\SteamSSD), separate from D: (D:\Program Files (x86)\Ste...

Looks like Steam hosed itself ... any way to update outside of Steam?

My Steam install refuses to start (or stop) any update downloads. Going off-line and uninstalling the offending update, then going back online does nothing, the next game has issue. It just goes minutes upon minutes without any update ... no disk, network or other activity. Is there any way to updat...

Touch typing ...

I guess if I could master touch typing I would too. But I am a hunt and peck typist, and with all the commands, you need to see the keyboard for a lot of fine tuned stuff. It honestly only takes a few weeks to pick-up, and there are plenty of programs out there that make it easy. But you have to ta...

Dumb Q ...

Dumb Q ...

Has anyone tried to fly directly, low-waking (Supercruising) from one system to a perma-locked one, instead of high-waking?

E.g., load up with a lot of extra gas tanks, scoop up and then spend the dozens of hours traveling there in Supercruise?

Just curious.

Re: Redirect speaker outputs to other device in Windows

I use my Desktop Speakers, my Logitech G35 Headset, my Bluetooth Headset once in awhile, and a Buttkicker Gamer 2 to send the LFE vibrations to my computer chair -- I use VoiceMeeter Banana (and VB Audio Cables A, B, and HiFi) to route all those sounds around. I use it a lot for streaming and recor...

Re: What are you doing (ingame) now?

Oh I'm here, but the heat is proving that a polar bear from Canada has no mobility when the temp climbs above 30C. Did Dawg go all Camaro on his Corvette too? By Camaro, I mean is his shirt unbuttoned to his crotch, fake chest hair and gold chains with a Mullet and a set of "Top Gun" avia...
