How do I upload images and videos to the forum? in Forum Help! ·
Imgur: pick an image, hit Upload, select Resize : message board, and send it off;
once you've typed in the IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards, just copy it and paste it here using the Insert Image icon.

ASUS ROG Extreme on Windows 8 in Desktops ·
ASUS ROG Extreme vs. ASUS ROG Extreme3 R2.0? Apparently, the second one is 🤷Windows 8-ready.

Alternatively, just run the Upgrade Assistant on your current Windows setup and check the system requirements.
Wouldn't it be simpler to just reach out to them directly? 😉

Between those top two, I’d personally go with either the Western Digital or Apple options. You might also want to check out this General Electric one or maybe this Intel model.

That $70 is basically less than $167. For that kind of money, you could just grab this SanDisk or maybe a Western Digital right here.

It just depends on which browser you're running. You'll need to turn on InPrivate Browsing (Firefox, Safari, Opera), incognito mode in Google Chrome, or InPrivate Browsing in Internet Explorer. Once you do that, your browsing history won't stick around. 🙂

Nope. That Windows license is tied directly to that specific laptop, so you can't just move it over to a different machine.😢

"Starting with Windows Vista and including Windows 7, the EULA of OEM license allows installation on only one single computer; once it's set, it's permanently locked to the motherboard of that specific machine." (link)

They aren't the same. The latest version of the Windows OS is miles ahead of what came before.

Something like this, right? 😉

I've got one more question—I honestly can't find it anywhere. It's like it just doesn't exist.Windows 7 or Windows 8?I need some actual reasons why one version is better than the other. Everything I've dug up online is just total nonsense. Also, does the system score even matter in general? What about when it comes to gaming? I’m looking at Windows 7 where the score hits around 7.9, but on Windows 8 it goes up to 9.9. :S haha

Not exactly on topic, but here’s my two cents: for what I need as an everyday home user, the latest version of Windows is definitely a step up from the previous ones. Is it perfect? No. Does it need to be? Not really. It’s stable, it doesn't nag you constantly with all those annoying notifications—though you can just toggle those off anyway—and I’ve finally gotten used to the UI. That said, I still find myself much more productive when I stick to desktop mode.

Sleep and Hibernation: Frequently Asked Questions

Look, "Why won't my PC actually sleep or hibernate when I tell it to? Or better yet, why does it keep waking up for no reason?"

The answer is probably buried somewhere in the settings. 😉

Yeah, it will.

You didn't specify which laptop model you're dealing with. If it happens to be an HP, check here.

I’d suggest you take the cost of upgrading from Windows 7 Home Basic to Windows 7 Home Premium / Professional / Ultimate
and weigh it against what it would actually cost to jump from Windows 7 Home Basic straight to Windows 8 / Pro.

Honestly, the price gap might not even be that significant. 🤷
The real kicker is whether your hardware can even handle the newer Windows versions.
