Re: Windows 10
When did you buy the key? I've bought a lot of keys from them and never had any problems. I plan on doing a clean install tonight, so I'll find out soon if my key is bung.

Re: Windows 10
Did you try to activate a previous install/upgraded install? This is an oem key, it needs to be used on a clean install.

Re: Windows 10
Silly question but will you lose everything if you upgrade?

You won't, but it's always good to backup when installing a new version of windows.

It's actually pretty remarkable how everything including where individual icons were on the desktop stays the same.

Just sunset overdrive, very good quality, noticeable delay especially if you can still hear the game your tv, not to bad though, some twitchy games might be a bit tough to play.flipswitch wrote:Has anyone tried the streaming from Xbone?
I didn't have a controller to plug into my surface though, i was controlling the Xbox.

Still no reply to my ticket. Agents are still "not available at this moment" despite there being "8 customer reps online". Fuck yeah, that's some professional service.

Re: Windows 10
Activated Windows 8.1 (using that was the worst few hours of my life...), upgraded to Windows 10. Took all of about 20 minutes from start to finish. Bam.

Re: Windows 10
I used my key last night, clean install of 8.1 pro on this old dell laptop. Key worked fine, I just need to do the win10 update, ran out of time because the hdd in this thing is so slow.
Hopefully you can get a refund unfnk, I think you lucked out, I'd never use my cc directly on these sites, PayPal is a must imo.

Re: Windows 10
That's because you need to install Windows 10 drivers

Re: Windows 10
I haven't updated to Windows 10 yet so forgive my ignorance... but don't you just update your Nvidia drivers using GeForce Experience which automatically do it for you?Froggy wrote:yeah no shit and that's what wouldn't work.. anyway after 50 restarts, multiple re-installs and other fiddling it randomly accepted them finally.unfnknblvbl wrote:That's because you need to install Windows 10 drivers
Re: Windows 10
I just manually downloaded the latest ones from the nvidia website.
I don't fuck with Geforce Experience because usually it wants to be updated first and fuck that noise.

Re: Windows 10
I like Edge, but I've already ditched it for Chrome because Chrome simply runs faster.

Re: Windows 10
Chrome has the benefit of adblock, which makes a significant difference in page load speed. It's bloody disgrace how javascript heavy and invasive ads are now.
Edge sorely needs that extension support, coming later this year.
Looks like SR1 patch is out now, you'll get a big 300mb patch which has lots of fixes that didn't make it in RTM.
I finished off my last laptop last night. 4 upgrades over the last week, I feel a bit sleep deprived.
