Windows 10: I installed Beta update 10.0.26120.3073 and updates KB5037898 & KB5050090

I installed these 3 updates this AM. I am connected via wifi. However, can't connect to anything. Ping router...nope. Can't access NAS drives. So frustrated can't think straight. Uninstalled the KB updates; but, no change.

Intel Updates Core 2 Quad Q9550 to E-0 Stepping

We continue our Monday news list with another Intel story that brings to our attention information concerning the company and more specificly its 2.83GHz Core 2 Quad Q9550 chips that will move from the current C-1 to the newer E-0 stepping. The updated chips will start selling on August 22nd, featuring the following changes:

• New SSpec and MM numbers for the converting products
• CPUID will change from 0x10677 to 0x1067A
• Package change to Halide free package

Apart from that, the new stepping CPUs will not include any other changes. Of course, like most new stepping parts a BIOS update will be needed.

Catalyst updates

9/10 times I do just an overwrite without issues. Have not had a problem updating drivers in a long time doing it that way and the driver I currently have is the latest Beta with no issues to report.

 

Steam Trade Beta update

I just noticed steam has a beta update called "steam trade update". Is this what it sounds like? If so, sweet*Rockout :rockout:

Edit: I don't see anything different yet. Maybe they are getting ready to release it any day now?


Double edit:[Steam] Steam Beta Client released (Trading) Not full blown trading, but it's one step towards it *Rockout :rockout:
