    Why does MS have to have accounts? and multiple accounts? I write things down, but MS still says something that use to work doesn't work.


    Also, so does Google. Between the two of them, I want to throw all digital equipment out the window. This is from someone who has bee working with PC-type HW since 1983 and all computers since 1972. You are making the tech world worse and worse and less user friendly.

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.

    PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
