Scalpers picked them all up as soon it was listed as a forced requirement. Then on some Asus boards it was different adaptors depending on what board, even revision mattered.

Avoid 11 for now. Have a full 3 years before 10 goes way of dodo. Everything I have seen 11 is full of BS.

Re: Swiss Gear Pegasus Laptop Backpack by Wenger

Was asked about my laptop bag this morning by someone that was looking for a new bag. Then I got to thinking, I doubt this is even made anymore, at least in the form I have. I have carried this thing daily since getting it for review in 2007. It has transported 5 different laptops over the years, cu...

Re: Cannot Install Any Applications On Windows 10

If your login is set as an Admin and still have to "run as administrator" then sounds like its UAC (User Access Control) that is causing headaches.

I just turn that off, I found even Corsairs iCue software will sometimes not run right with UAC on.

Re: Cannot Install Any Applications On Windows 10

Things to look at

- Program not compatible with Win10
- Windows 10 in S mode
- other pending installs or previous version of software causing issues
- pending restart needed
- Do not have access rights to folder being changed
- UAC is preventing it somehow
- User profile corrupted.

Re: UPS Backup device

get 2 more surge ports on the Cyberpower, and slightly smaller than the APC. APC is a newer design, slightly bigger than the Cyberpower. The Trip Lite is a rack mount layout, charges little faster, least amount of surge and battery ports. Depending on how your desk is set up, this one could be annoy...

Re: UPS Backup device

Between home and work I have and use Eaton/Powerware, Cyberpower, and APC. Until to get up to serious power draw they all use basically the same battery, either single or in groups. First step is to figure out your power draw and get one that will fit the bill for how long you want something to keep...
