Although it looks terrible, finding stuff you can't remember the names of is terrible and it just seems slow.

I now have a new dislike. Sound.

For a long while I've just been using the audio out jack on the motherboard an all was ok.
Then I decided to see how the quality of the sound was via the graphics card. In short it seemed better. Until playing some games and it was maxing the cpu out!

Fine, I thought I'll just use the sound from before and see if the problem goes away. That is if I could get it to work and windows says all is fine.

I hope Win 10 is better when I get it.

Mine boots strait to desktop mode and as I only use it for games the metro look doesn't bother me to much. Until I need to search for a program I can't remember the name of and look through the app bit.


I know it won't change but I need it Crying or Very sad

I know them feels.

Sadly, I suspect that Steam OS is going to die stillborn and be flushed down the e-crapper.

I hope not, the few games I have apart from one work great and my PS3 controller works out of the box too.
