I'm in W10 now on the desktop and I just changed network adapters to the Realtek adapter. No change. Another strange thing. I fired up my Surface Pro I and checked the speed and with W10 running the SPI internet connection is hosed too!! It must be affecting the router / modem somehow because...

Well it has correct drivers for W8.1 for the network adapter --- but it is very possible that W10 will need a DIFFERENT adapter driver. The adapter I'm using is an Intel 82579V Gigabit Network Connection. There are several adapters on this motherboard besides that one but it seemed to work the...

I < am > connected to the router via an Ethernet cable. :) But it isn't an external drive ... I haven't installed W10 on my tablet, this is on my desktop with multiple drives installed. There are two external drives. One E-sata drive for data storage and one NAS drive which is connected to the...

Yes it is TP 9926. Dunno about One Drive but it was doing it all day. I'm using the same computer just swapping drives. I have one SSD with Windows 8.1 and one with Windows 10. I just disconnect one drive and plug in the other one and boot up. So it is using exactly the same router and modem...

In Windows 8.1 I get over 65 Mbps download. In Windows 10 I get 1 - 5 Mbps download. Have no idea why it is sooooo bad. I have disabled wireless adapters and reenabled and < sometimes > it will work ok ONCE and then the next time it is dead in the water again. Anyone else having problems with...

Why would anyone expect Microsoft to continue producing SP2's after they have brought out the SP3's? They dropped my SP1 as soon as they brought out the SP2. Does Ford continue producing 2010 models after they have brought out the 2011's?

Which Surface are you projecting to what TV / monitor / ?

That's why I put W 10 on a separate drive. Didn't even dual boot it with W 8.1. For " real " work I plug in the W 8.1 drive and to play with W 10 I switch out the drives. Keeps everything completely seperate.

I installed in on a newish SSD drive that had Windows 8.1 on it and used the install via Windows Update route. All went ok although it took several restarts before Cortana began to operate. I realize it is in the formative stages, but to me it was very unimpressive. So far I see little reason...

In Windows 8.1 you could have an app open and use the charm bar to get to it's settings but that doesn't seem to work in W10. My name is short is Cortana says it so fast you can't tell what she said. I remember when I first saw Cortana there was a speed option but I can't figure out how to get...

OK, thanks for the quick replies :) I feel naked without my AVAST. Defender is pretty lame but that and the firewall is all we have, for now, I guess. The virus companies probably won't bother fixing their stuff until the public version comes out because they would have to keep making change...

Just tried to install Avast Premier on my desktop with Windows 10 and it won't let me. Even in compatability mode it will not let Avast install. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: Are there any < good > virus programs that will install in Windows 10?

Ok ... have to wait for Spartan. Grrr :( Thanks for the replies :)

I don't find the new browser -- Spartan in my build 9926. Is it there somewhere? How do we get it or can we get it yet?

I downloaded build 9926 via the Insider Program a couple of hours ago. I have received several updates via Microsoft Update and was wondering what the very latest build is. Where would we go to find out about the latest build that has been released?

I have a spare new SSD that has Windows 8.1 installed on it and I am wanting to put Windows 10 on it and then switch back and forth between drives ( rather than dual boot for now ). Where can I get Windows 10?

Yeah, I had already come to the conclusion that Microsoft wants to FORCE us to buy their Adapter. It was obvious my SPI had the capability to mirror to the TV or the Start Screen would never have appeared there at all. Something stopped it after one second .... like it said ... " hey wait a...

Thanks for the link. Had to uninstall original driver and then I got it installed. Now I have the Intel Control Panel. Unfortunately, it still won't mirror to my Sony UHD TV. :mad: I see a 3D setting in the Control Panel. Is this SP I even capable of 3D? Otherwise I see no change from...

Would you have a link for them?

I have a large desktop computer with 5 drives in it. 2 SSD and 3 older SATA disk drives. Is there such a thing as an external box of some sort that a Dockng station could connect to that would allow me to replace this noisy desktop ( all those fans and water pump and fan ) with my Surface Pro...
