MtB Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Is there a reason we no longer have the list of people [at the bottom of each page] viewing a topic at the time? Or am I simply overlooking it somewhere else? Yes, Dan turned the list OFF in a vain attempt to reduce the disk loading with the previous host, and no-one techy has turned it back ON again yet!

pophops Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Just got back after a few days away and tried entering the forums. Still getting fatal error blah blah blah. I really can't be bothered trying to use a forum that doesn't want to play ball. I'll try again sometime maybe or maybe not. Lots of better things to do.

Guest Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Win 10 is cool, trust me !! My ancient but very reliable Dell Dimension struggles with 7 these days. 10 would probably finally do for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Saunders Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Win 10 is cool, trust me !! W10 is free for W7 and W8.1 users - 3GB download. There is no such thing a 'free lunch'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB Lola Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 I have the insider trial and it's good, way better than 7 or 8.1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottle Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 W10 is free for W7 and W8.1 users - 3GB download. There is no such thing a 'free lunch'! Go to the pub, that has free wi-fi and download it there, for the cost of a pint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 W10 is free for W7 and W8.1 users - 3GB download. There is no such thing a 'free lunch'! I am so pleased that my 3 contract has unlimited data on tethering! Might wait until I see no. 1 son who has an 18Mb/s connection. And yes, W7 was wonderfully quick on my Dell Inspiron N5010 when I first bought it (2nd hand), but it has become slower with every upgrade. A couple of weeks ago I did a clean reinstall which did not make a huge difference once all the upgrades had been installed. N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Saunders Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 I have the insider trial and it's good, way better than 7 or 8.1. Thanks for that, maybe I will give it a chance. Go to the pub, that has free wi-fi and download it there, for the cost of a pint. Thanks, but I think a 3GB download would require several pints. i see nothing from Microsoft that implies that I can schedule the download, it just says register now and the download will commence at some time that they decide.

Alan if you turn windows updates off it can't download without your permission. *****Devices must be connected to the Internet and have Windows Update enabled.***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
