Yes, I've seen that but I didn't think that was the same as changing the DPI ... just makes the fonts bigger.

No, I have W10 on one SSD and W8 on another SSD and both are plugged into the SATA ports on the motherboard. I just go into the UEFI ( used to be BIOS ) and tell it which drive to boot from.

Not sure where to do that. In Windows 7 it was out in the open but in W8 and W10 it is either hidden or they call it something else or I haven't stumbled across it.

Typing " Cortana Settings " doesn't seem to work in release 61.

That is one of the first things I tried. It said it was Intel HD 4000 in Device Manage although on the resolution screen it only will show Mobile PC Display. After removal it was still the same. Device Manager said Intel HD 4000 but resolution screen will only show Mobile PC Display. I just...

Second attempt appeared to go okay, but who knows if some file got corrupted until such time as I do something that needs that file someday. Yes, I'm well aware of the fragile nature of W10 betas. That is why I put it on a completely separate hard drive. I don't dual boot, but instead will...

I would also like to see the ability to LOCK a message or folder so we could preserve messages from accidental deletion or archiving. Example, I get emailed receipts. I would like to be able to either LOCK the individual message or put them in a folder where NOTHING can be deleted. The folder...

Ain't no way in hell I'm doing a REFRESH. Did that once and lost everything. Had to completely re-install all my programs. Fortunately I have a daily backup made at 6 pm every night, but it was still a huge pain in the rear. Probably took me over a week to get everything back.

Lately my SP1 screen is 3 times the size it should be. When browsing I can drag the browser clear off the screen either right or left with either Firefox or IE. When I go into personalize and look at the resolution it says the adapter is Mobil PC adapter not the Intel 4000 which is what is...

I started downloading 061 and after awhile I heard a BOINK and went into the computer room to see and there , low and behold was a gorgeous blue screen of death. Said that Driver IRQL not less or equal and that they were collecting information and it would reboot == IT DID NOT. I had to hit...

Microsoft has lost interest in desktops and tablets and is only concerned about trying to take over the phone market. They rolled out update #56 weeks ago to Windows phones but NOT to tablets or desktops. Everything goes to phones first and, if they get around to it, tablets and desktops.

I can understand that. I prefer to not need an attorney though. :)

I usually can't read what I wrote the next day and often just a few hours later :( My printing runs a close second. Thank goodness we were forced to take typing classes in high school back in the 50's.

You can make calls now via Skype. Who needs a smartphone?

I was not aware Steam did ESO. I've never looked into the Streaming thing. Don't know how it works. I've got a PS3 and I suppose if I could send it through that to the tv it might work out ok. But I always found console controllers very lacking compared to keyboards and especially compared to...

I can't conceive of playing that game on a Surface. Even with the keyboard it would be handicapped. I played it with a Logitech keyboard that has macro keys and wouldn't want to play without this keyboard. I liked the game but quit playing because it is crafting intensive and the programmers...

I hooked up my W10 drive yesterday and got 3 updates but none were 1051, just regular security type updates.

I have posted before that when in discussion forums and places like Facebook when I reply to a comment the whole thing slams to the right side of the screen. I've noticed I can move a screen in the browsers either Firefox or IE and it slides left or right for about a 1/4 of the screen. It's...

How hard would it be for an app programmer to convert the Windows Phone bank apps to Windows 8.1 desktop / tablet apps?

Yes, the bank website works on the SP but the APPS do not. Microsoft Phone store won't even let me have the app because I don't have a Windows Phone registered. And, on the bank websites == the last time I checked --- they don't even tell you there IS a Windows Phone app, they only showed...
