    PIN Issue


    I have Microsoft 10 and have had a PIN from day one using this computer. Yesterday my computer set off a loud alarm and I shut down the computer. When I restarted it, my PIN did not work. Nor did my Microsoft password work. So after reading a bunch of stuff online, I reset my password (actually to the same password) and reset my PIN. Now I can get into my computer, but all of my files are no longer visible and my personal settings on the computer are gone. What's up?

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar


    Does anybody know how to clear the "Pin suggested" list on the "People bar"?

    Contacts are added to the "Pin suggested" list once you've pinned and unpinned them. But there seems to be no obvious way to remove them from that list.

    After playing around with this feature and pinning and unpinning many dummy contacts, it's rather annoying to see them in the "Pin suggested" list when you click on the "My People" icon in the taskbar.
