If you have another computer you can just download the Windows Media creation tool straight from Microsoft, and it will burn the iso onto a USB for you.
Then just continue with the installation normally and 2hen it prompts you to enter a key click "enter a key at a later time" or something like that.

When you're done installing make an account in the mydigitallife forums, and download Microsoft toolkit. Use that to activate windows.

My old PC (Intel) has Win 10 installed on SSD, I just got my new PC (Ryzen) but forgot to put an optical on the build so I can't install Windows, can I transfer my old SSD in the new one and it would work?

>>59688606
It depends what price range you want to upgrade to. Vega is supposed to be high end and will probably try competing with GTX 1070 and above.
If you don't think you can afford cards at that level, then there's no point in waiting.

If you're considering a 1060/480 level card, go with the 480. It's overall much better than the 1060.

OleDb is part of System.Data which gets referenced by default.
The tools are for Visual Studio so you can generate/modify/connect to etc. different databases within it. This has no impact on C# or the .NET framework.

You could try removing the System.Data reference and adding it again.

>>59689708
When you install one of these distros you have to do most of the installing manually, which forces you to learn how everything works.

>>59689752
So wifi works and lan doesn't on the same router, and you haven't changed anything? That's really strange. Maybe it's busted.

Audio quality question here
If I'm outputting an audio and visual signal from hdmi into my monitor and then pulling the audio out from the 3.5mm jack on the monitor to my headphones will I be suffering a loss of quality compared to using an external DAC?
My monitor has speakers albeit shitty ones, that's why it has a 3.5mm jack built in

>>59689815
That's likely. I'll uninstall a bunch of this garbage and try again.
>>

you are not targeting the .net framework, that's your problem.
you picked the wrong project type creating it, change it in the project settings.
>>
>>59689826
Likely yes. You would be using the DAC in your monitor, and seeing as nobody seriously uses their monitor speakers, it's probably shit.

Whats the deal with 4k monitors?

Are they a meme?

I assume everything will look microscopic by default.

I've had this monitor for 12 years (high school graduation gift) and I am looking at upgrading since its getting this weird discoloration on the side.

How does 1920x1080 images and video look on a 3840x2160 screen? I'm assuming pretty bad right?

Would getting a replacement 1080p be a smarter move?

Hello,

I did a small command line tool to brute force passwords

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dc5/files/beta/DcsFV_01.zip/download

Configuration is in dcsfv.cfg

SearchTypes:
Authorize - try to decrypt each block (slow)
Regions - search contiguous regions of encrypted data. Encryption is detected by statistics.

e.g. brute force
SearchType = Authorize
Specify logins in dcsfv.cfg to check several passwords on each block
Specify one media path and begin = 0, end = 0 for for volumes

e.g. search regions with size ~1GB
SearchType = Regions
MinRegionSize = 2000000

that's a windows-store app, not a normal .net program.

>>
>>59689862
Any decent OS will let you scale things up, so that text, etc. is the same size but sharper on a 4K monitor. I used a laptop with a 4K monitor for a while, and most things looked great on it. However, images and video (that aren't 4K resolution) will look about as good as on a 1080p monitor.

Really, there's no use for 4K though, outside of ridiculously high-powered gayming rigs, or media work.

>>59688138
Is it possible to create an arduino power meter that will measure about 30A at 12 Volts?
>>
>>59689924
If so, you should have an HDMI -> HDMI/Audio splitter with TOSLINK or similar, and then connect that to a good DAC.
>>
>>59689924
Do you own a DAC? If so, play audio through the DAC and video through HDMI. The internal sound card in your PC is probably best otherwise.
>>
>>59689926
My only options for creating a .NET project are the Console App, which I dont want because I need XAML and the visual tools, and Class Libraries, which are not what I want at all.

What is the original audio source?
>>
>>59689862
Higher resolution doesn't make much difference on video alone. For extra real estate on browsing/editing/gaming with menus it can be great. 1440p is ideal for that, especially if you've got a 27inch+ monitor. 4k has the advantage of scaling 4k perfectly though.
>>
>>59689996
I don't think you can convert a store-app to a normal one.
what you want is classic desktop -> wpf app (.net framework).
it uses the normal .net framework and uses XAML for the GUI.

I have a really weird problem. So basically, in Windows 10, on my desktop, when putting my mouse over particular shortcuts it slows down a bit, I mean, it's like the icons are lagging.

You know when you're rapidly hovering over an icon, the blue background thing fickles right? Well for some it lags, there's a delay. If it were all the icons like this I'd understand something is wrong about the desktop and icons and general but some are fine and some are not. I don't get it, I'm having a hard time pinpointing the problem here. Even like for example the shortcuts of two programs who are in the same folder (say /Program Files) end up behaving differently, aka one is normal and one is slow. I googled so many different things but it seems only few people experienced this issue. Help please?
>>
>>59690156
Well, if the HDMI/Audio splitter splits the audio into an analog signal (such as a 3.5 mm phone connector), the splitter itself will have to convert the signal to analog.

Thus, whether you should get a HDMI splitter or not depends on whether the HDMI splitter has a better DAC than your monitor.

>>59690298
if you have no specific requirements, pretty much
for example, cheaper ones might only be N (do they still make G cards?), which is slower than the current AC (is it still current? i don't really follow wifi)
do you need support for anything besides windows? (macos/linux/freebsd/whatever), double check the card you get works for those before buying if you do
do you need long range? some small/cheap cards have tiny/integrated antennas that are only good for short range, if you need good range, consider one with a detachable antenna, as you can use other antennas with them if need be
also, look around for comments about your choice to see what people say about it, to ensure you don't get overwhelmingly bad reviews like "overheats constantly", "disconnects randomly" or whatever

I'm thinking of finally getting a 850 EVO. There is suppose to be a form of migration software with the SSD. I was wondering if I could use that to only copy a partion to the SSD instead of the whole disk? Only the partion with the OS needs to go on the SSD.

They are NAS rated, so they should be fine to spin 24/7 right? it's annoying when one of them is asleep and I decide to access it and it takes 2-5 seconds.

Having a really stupid issue with Bluetooth headset connection in Windows 7 Ultimate.

Headset: LG HBS730
Driver: BCM20702A0
Bluetooth Dongle: Insignia Bluetooth USB Adapter

Whenever I connect, it will stutter very frequently (1 second play audio, 1 second silence, 1 second play audiot, repeat).

Reconnecting it fixes this issue, but the microphone input doesn't work (for example, audio in Overwatch is perfectly fine but when i push the speak button, no mic input goes through).

Turned off "Handsfree Telefony" per rec of some dude in Stack Overflow but then all mic input turns off again.

Any help? Will post screenshots of settings if needed. Been playing around for ~4 hours now and can't think of any other option.

It's kind of like having an super pushy antivirus integrating itself into all of your systems. Extra unnecessary menus and features on top of the old ones. It takes away control of a lot of little things. And updates are a little more likely to break things. Slight performance improvements in new games. Obviously privacy is nonexistant.

If you didn't use this, do.

microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
>>
>>59693674
you probably just need to move the boot devices around then. I'm pretty sure the microsoft tool sets up the usb for UEFI bootmode.

sometimes the bios tries to boot the usb before it's actually able to read read, or something, so it fails to boot and goes to the next device. Just keep rebooting a few times to see if it will work.
>>
>>59693726
what i mean by move them around, you need to go into the bios setup when you first reboot by hitting enter or f12 or something. Then you can change the boot order, or sometimes on nicer BIOS, you can just boot into the usb directly from that screen.

So I have something that's got me stumped.

My Internet, which normally runs at about ±900KB/s, enters on a copper phone line, into the house and into the modem/router combo box.


If one device is connected (as in my PC which is wired to the box), the data rate runs along steadily.


But as soon as another device connects to it, such as a phone over WiFi or another PC, the data rate collapses.

And I don't mean split evenly 50/50 between the PC and other devices.

The other devices aren't even down/uploading anything, and the data rate measured on my PC drops to 0~31KB/s.

I have changed the modem/router box out for a different model already, but the problem persists..


Any anons have any idea on what's going on?

That's not what I meant to ask, I have no idea what I was thinking. What I meant was will a 24" monitor set to 1080p look blurry? (I want 4K for nice fonts but I have a 380x).
>>
>>59694982
>>59695038
It shouldn't, as every pixel in 1080p should get upscaled to 2x2 pixels in 4K in theory. However, I'm not sure that the upscaler in the monitor will do that correctly.

Questions megapack :

- is it a good thing to install games (Steam, Blizzard) on another SSD than C: or is it the same thing?
- What's the "normal" temperature of a cpu?
- Is there a better alternative than Firefox nowadays? I still love it but some sites are pretty laggy and they're not on other browsers. Is Chrome the only good other option with a decent amount of extensions?
>>
>>59695038
No, it will look sharper. Some people consider that a negative, as the rounded edges of a single pixel are a little more forgiving than 4 pixels showing 1080p content. But it shouldn't matter much
>>
>>59695117
One SSD is the same as another, just be sure to leave a little free space.
>>
>>59695098
The only free port i have is a USB 3 port.
>>
>>59694856
my 2500k does the same, hits 4.6ghz even though its set to 4.5ghz, Openhardwaremonitor shows it at 4500, so i assume hwmonitor is fubar

If it's USB-C there are much cheaper options

Is there a text editor that allows for a transparent background but an opaque foreground (Text)? Preferably for windows?
>>
>>59695203
Just use a command line editor with a transparent terminal.

From what I read it really depends on your CPU but generally you don't want to go over 75-80°C. What are your temps?

Try Waterfox, I use it and don't have problems.

New Ryzen build, not doing any heavy work right now but it's at 63.6°C

It's bundled with chrome, but you can get it with chromium using chrlauncher on windows..

There's a big difference between 1700 and X SKU's in terms of thermals.
1700 should idle around 40'c. X SKU's should idle anywhere between 40-60'c depending on your cooling solution and power profile.
>>
>>59695276
Weird indeed. I'm on a new 7700K build and 65°C are my load temps despite the processor being a housefire.

Install HWiNFO64 and tell me the vcore your motherboard is sending, it might be the cause.

I'm after a monitor that's 1440p, g-sync, and displays really nice colours. I watch a lot of Bluray rips and game, but I don't play FPS or online shooters.

Colour-quality is important. I've been looking at some IPS displays that are 1440p, but there are huge numbers of complains about "light bleed" and shit like that.

Recommendations? I'm in Australia.

I have a large budget and would like to build a decent desktop pc. Ideally it would utilize the 1080ti for muh gaymes, and could handle vr development. Suggestions?

Mine is 1700x btw. I think I read somehwere Ryzens were sending wrong temps infos or something? Not sure.

Max CPU core voltage is displayed as 1.450 (though it's showed under the CPU stats and not the mobo one, I don't know why, might be specific to Ryzen and how HWiNFO handles them).

Did you set it to something in particular in the BIOS? Did you overclock? I don't know anything about Ryzen and how it's overclocked so I'll refrain from giving advice but if you just want to use your CPU's base clock then there perhaps is a way to undervolt and get cooler temps. That's what I did with my 7700K; my mobo was set to send 1.3 volt or something which was overkill for stock clocks so I changed it and my temps problems went away.
>>
>>59695429
>>59695511
But please seek educated advice, I don't know how much volt a 1700X needs to function in a stable way nor I can attest the data showed on your screenshots.

What are you two talking about?

I bought Intel but honestly I would say Ryzen is pretty good.

Open the admin page on your adsl modem.
See how long it's had a connection.
Keep an eye on it to see how often the connection drops.
As it could be a problem with your telephone line.

I'm using Firefox Nightly (55.0a1) I assume it just updated and fucked my shit up but several of my addon buttons no longer appear, most notably uMatrix and uBlock. some addons still still show though but some are comlpleatly missing and they are marked as installed and enabled.so I'm wondering what is causing this issue.
