The only time WU is slow on my Windows 7 machines is on Patch Tuesday or immediately thereafter. It's not maxing out a core or thrashing the HDD/SDD. It's probably just waiting for the update servers to respond.
That said, even when it is running smoothly, it has never been as fast as it is in...
Same here. I've had the FF plugin disabled for many months now. It has been the sole reason for any hanging or lag in FF, and I'm sick of having to constantly update it. If I absolutely need flash, I'll open Chrome instead. I might as well uninstall the FF plugin at this point.
There's only one...
The answers forum is useless. Don't trust anything you read there unless it's directly from a MS engineer. The moderators are not always good sources of info, and there are several prolific posters who routinely post rumor-based opinions as if they were facts.
It's a shame that MS doesn't take...
It's very rare that I have an update fail, and usually a failed update works on the second try.
There was one earlier this year that failed to install repeatedly. It took some searching on many different fora to find the answer. It turns out that this particular update would fail to install if...
Doesn't surprise me. People are way too optimistic to expect a free license just for testing the preview.
But how is that going to work? If you're testing the preview, you would have had to install it over the top of an existing 7/8.1 install in order for MS to detect it. I imagine that many...
Your memory is a little hazy. The first Intel Macs in early 2006 had Core Duo (Yonah) CPUs:
MacBook
MacBook Pro
iMac
EDIT: Sorry, I may have misread your post a little. At first it seemed like you were saying that the first Intel Macs had C2D. If that's not what you meant, then I apologize...
On my home server (Ubuntu Server 12.04 LTS) resolv.conf is automatically generated. In fact there is a comment at the top of the file that warns against editing it manually. Instead, my DNS server settings are in the /etc/network/interfaces file. In fact the man page (on Debian-based distros)...
Same here, mainly because most Linux DE's use categories.
That's a concept that Microsoft has ignored for way too long. Instead Windows either allows every program to create its own start menu folder (7 and older) or dumps everything in a huge list (8.x). What a mess! Sure you could create your...
I also ditched WHSv1 for Linux about three years ago. I had a failing storage drive that caused WHS to BSOD. A storage drive should not cause the whole system to crash! On top of that, WHS failed to detect any problems with the drive after rebooting. :thumbsdown:
I immediately dumped WHS for...
