Windows 10: ONE DRIVE INSTRUCTIONS NEED TO BE MORE INTUITIVE!

I just did a fresh install of Windows 10 and to my disappointment, I found that OneDrive seems to have taken on a mind of its own. I could NOT stop the autosync, which took almost a day to complete. Once completed, I was able to designate which files I wanted to make available on my PC and which I did not. My assumption was that those I did not, would stay in the Cloud and I could delete these folders from my PC. When I did this, not only were the cloud only files deleted from my PC, but the files in the cloud were as well. I received a message that I had deleted files from OneDrive and that if I wanted to keep them I'd need to restore them. HOWEVER, I was NOT given the option of restoring them in the Cloud and the same files that I did NOT want to see on my PC were shown, once again on my PC. I also tried to uncheck the boxes pertaining to the files I did not want to see or access on my PC and was given the message that these files were STILL SYNCING, although my OneDrive status said that it was "up to date." In any case, I have LOST a lot of valuable pictures and WILL NO LONGER USE ONE DRIVE. On a DSL linked PC, the process of syncing takes up all of my bandwidth and takes to long to complete. My PC was useless in terms of using the Internet! I will use my external disk drives for storage moving forward. Your OneDrive instructions and options are not clear! Not mad, but just stating my experience. I am not looking for a response, but hope that you guys make OneDrive more user friendly and intuitive for those who want to continue using it. It did not work for me as it worked in the past. Other than that I am enjoying my Windows 10 experience!

Instructions to change board?

Boot off of the windows CD, repair your XP partition (hopefully you won't have to reinstall windows), install drivers, and you're good to go. You'll see dual channel mode in the BIOS splash screen results from POST. It'll be pretty obvious *Stick Out Tongue . Here's a list of general tweaks for the 939Dual-SATA2.
Step one- Set time, date
Step two- In CPU settings, disable cool n quiet, set memory clock to DDR400, play with memory timings (CAS-TRAS-TRP-TRCD), which are listed in the bios in the order CAS, TRCD, TRAS, and TRP. EDIT- new BIOS's mess around with this order, can't be too sure on it, but yeah at least you know what the RAM timings stand for *Big Grin .
Leave MA timing at 2T unless you think your system can handle 1T
Step three- in Chipset settings, enable onboard LAN, disable onboard Audio, disable AGP fast write, set primary graphics adapter, and set CPU-NB and NB-SB link speed to 1000mhz.
Step four- in IDE, disable controllers you aren't using. On all drives detected, enable SMART if you can and set PIO/DMA as high as they will go.
Step five- Enable legacy USB support
Step six- Set password if you're worried about anyone screwing around with your BIOS settings
Step seven- Configure your boot sequence. I reccomend hard drive first, optical drive second, and floppy drive third.
Step eight- Save changes, boot into XP, and enjoy your computer.

 

Partitioning My Hard Drive Without Losing Data


Download any of the suggested programs above and fire up Youtube for a step by step instruction. Easus is a good software. But I personally use MiniTool Partition Wizard.
