    Only a dozen times. I think I'm on the right track now (crosses fingers). I downloaded the first few updates and installed which included the service pack. I let it check for updates for an hour. Did a selective boot and it listed 230 updates which it is isntalling now which takes forever. So...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I went to college of 15k people in a town of 30k including students. You ran into hot girls no matter where you went at any time including 4am at Whatburger. They really didn't have the aspect of people you see nowdays on the internet with the throw downs at a fast food place between customers...

    Ok I'll move out of the windows 10 thread. I have a dual boot now of windows 10 and windows 7 while I migrate to windows 10. The IT guy put both on and upgraded thru 10 and only did the initial install of windows and I'm going to do the rest. However my windows 7 goes thru about 30 updates and...

    I took it to work today and the IT guy was THRILLED he got to work on a desktop type computer. He installed (2) 256 mb SSD's he said we had stockpiled in a closet which was odd considering none of our computers have an SSD in them other than the laptops I guess. Anyway he put windows 7 on and...

    Definetly not fast food, but having a "brunch" of biscuits and eggs. Picked up some muscadine jelly my grandmother made last week. Love it. The French dip I got wa OK. I really don't know where the Arby's is around here but I assume we have one. I used to eat at them a lot in college. 5 roast...

    Windows 10

    Sorry I fagged up your thread, and yeah I might run windows 7 forever. Apparently I don't do a lot of stuff people do. I don't even run an anti virus because I do limited stuff on the computer and have never had an issue. I ran windows ME on two boxes until about 2 years ago. If it ain't...

    After the week I had last week and today too I'm going to find the finest restaurant in the SA area and go eat there. If nothing else I'll drive to Lockhart and get some BBQ.

    Windows 10

    Just buying a $20 windows 7 key sounds like a better option than sitting on hold for 5 hours. When I went back to windows 7 I got what was basically a fresh install, nothing saved from before. So if I decide to stick with windows 7 I have a lot of shit to update etc...

    Windows 10

    I never get that option, when it downloads it pops up a screen to enter the key. There's no other choice but to enter the key to continue or....nothing. When I rebooted once I had the option to boot from windows 10 or windows 7. I don't get that option now.

    Windows 10

    Well I went to install windows 10 and it says it's not activated and wants a key. It won't let me continue without a valid key. FFS. So the only key I have isn't valid for windows 10 or windows 7 and I can't even continue to install windows 10.

    What would a full time IT person need to do for 35 people. Only about 10-15 of them actively use a computer day to day. About 90% of our business done by the PM's and engineers are done via voice call if they're not drawing. I'm technically his boss since I fired the guy that had the job...

    Doing that now, thanks. Well our new IT gets to sit on hold for 5-1/2 hours tomorrow. At least he will have something to do lol. He's always asking me what he can do. We only have 35 people it's not that intensive for a full time IT person.

    So I can download windows 10 again and it will be activated?It would be quicker than being on hold honestly. OMG upgrading to windows 10 is easy, I've heard it a hundred times and the START menu is back lol. FYI Internet expolorer that comes with windows 7 sucks ass but I'm too lazy to put...

    So now I don't have a licencsed copy of windows 10 or 7. I can get the free windows 10 but after X number of days I would have to buy a copy. Sounds great.

    So I called activation support at MS. The first question you have to answer is are you activating windows XP, if so press 1. Ummm what did I wake 5 years ago?

    I don't store anything in the cloud, but whatever. When I downgraded it also lost my driver for my network card. So I had to dig thru and find a wireless usb to use.

    I didn't care for windows 10 so went back to windows 7. Now it says fake/counterfit and when I go online to enter my key (it's still stuck on the case where I put it when I built the computer) it says it's not valid for windows 7 pro which is also the disk I used. It's the only computer I have lol.

    Edit Nm fixed it. Hate cortana on my fucking phone why would I want that shit on my desktop. After an hour I'm going back to windows 7 if I can get my CD to install. Too much shit added for me. I want an OS to be an OS, not a search engine and 200 other things. I literally want it to allow...

    All that stuff in the pic I posted. I had current_ver but no data entries at all. All the stuff listed as c:/program files etc...I don't have which may explain some of the issues I've been having with windows 7 pro.

    Untucked shirts, in what dress code is that appropriate for pretty much anything other than casual and surely nobody would go "casual" to a wedding that wasn't at the beach or something. Like I said I wear jeans to work every day and even I tuck in my shirt.

    Well so much for that. When it downloaded it gave me the option of what to keep. It only has the option of "norhint" saying my windows is installed in an unsupported directory. As far as I know it's on C: in the stand installation directory.

    Company Raises It's Minimum Wage to $70,000 and All Hell Breaks Loose

    I like people that complain about the money in sports while having a jersey of 14 varieties for players and teams they like, have season tickets, and pay for the MLB or NFL network etc... I had a suite at Tiger Stadium for LSU for a long time. It was "fun" but it was more of a business...

    Company Raises It's Minimum Wage to $70,000 and All Hell Breaks Loose

    I'm glad I have never worked in a corporate environment. In the companies I have worked for (small to medium at most, I would say small) you don't get PTO. You get vacation time. If you need to take care of something or are sick you just take off. You still get paid for the full week etc...It's...

    Opened my computer today to clean it. Found a 30gb SSD I had forgot about just sitting there. I think I had my OS on it when I first built this computer when SSD's weren't that common. I think I ran out of room and put in another one. So now I have a 30gb SSD I might try to put in and at least...

    I guess I'm old. Black tie means "old school" black tie to me. There's probably a good chance that a fair number of people don't know what black tie means and a good chance a fair number of peole that attended never even read that part of the invitation. "Oh we got an invite to soandso's wedding...

    So far it hasn't been that bad. So far I've found it easier to carry than WoT. I ended my career with a 56% win rate in WoT over 20k matches and I just couldn't put up with it. At least WoWS I get to experience new window lickers as opposed to knowing 30 seconds in what the real idiots are going...

    I'm still on the fence. I finally updated my windows 7 pro so that I got the upgrade to 10 notification. From reading around it says 20gb required for 64 bit windows. I don't have 20gb free on my OS SSD drive. Is that a problem? I really don't want to move the few things that are on it to...
