Thanks

    Microsoft Account on new laptop for husband

    I used my Microsoft Account sign in info on another newer laptop for my husband. I had a hard time trying to remember his old sign in info and password. Couldn't get anything to work so I used mine thinking I could change it later--haven't been able
    to.

    If two laptops have same acct info will both still get updates they need or just the one you sign onto first?

    How do I redo sign info on husbands laptop? If I delete info on new laptop, does it then delete my original MS Account info on my 4 yr older laptop? I can't find any way to change or start over on this new laptop /account. I noticed when I booted
    up my old laptop the next time, that for a while it had the same log in screen that I had just selected for his new laptop--but then it changed back to my original.

    From what I have read, once MS Acct is "set up" you can't delete it--you can only add additional users? Thanks

    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.
