  1. Taking control of a computer


    This didn't happen yet and I'm very sorry if I'm not supposed to ask questions like this, you can always ignore it.So I had let's say some kind of dream or nightmare where I downloaded l4d2 and someone was able to control my mouse and keyboard. Is there any way to protect myself if that happens? Key combination? Some kind of program?Again I'm very sorry if questions like this are not supposed to be here. If that's the case I'll ask only when a problem appears.

    :)

    Time computer takes to boot up

    Hi,

    It is possible that it takes too long to boot up after the update because the Fast Startup is disabled. To efficiently assist you, we'd like to know what troubleshooting steps you've done so far.

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you follow these steps on how to enable Fast Startup. This helps start your computer faster after shutdown:

    • Open Control Panel and go to Power Options.
    • Click on the Choose what the power buttons do link on the left side.
    • Click on the Change settings that are currently unavailable link at the top.
    • If prompted by UAC, then click on Yes.
    • Ensure that Turn on Fast Startup is checked.
    • Restart the computer.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    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.

  4. Taking control of a computer

    I cannot take control over windows insider updates.

    Hi,

    To resolve your concern regarding the Take Control button not working, follow the steps below:

    • Go to Control Panel.
    • Click on User Accounts.
    • Select User Accounts.
    • Click on Manage another account.
    • Check if the old Administrator account is still showing on the list.
    • If yes, click on the old Administrator account, and then click on Delete the account.
    • After deleting the old account, check if the Take Control button will now work.
    Let us know how it goes.
