Yes, good info there.       

Good info 
 
I had Windows Update disabled in Services (for my own reasons)..Enabled it again and that helped a lot too..LOL.

Installed it on my surround setup . Now every time I boot into Windows the task bar is always on the top of the middle screen . Have to do a restart to correct . Also , now my Logitech G15 keyboard will light up after the pc is shut down if you touch the keyboard . Only way to turn it off is to unplug & plug it back in . Seems to be a common issue . Guess we're back to being Guinea pigs again  ! BTY , I installed it on my Dell Inspiron 1545 .... bad decision . Now it will barely boot into Windows ...

I decided to just make a fresh install. Oddly Microsoft Edge wasn't working properly after the fresh install.

I am having nothing but problems from Firefox tabs crashing, to games crashing randomly.. man I miss Windows 7

Yep, me too... Heading back to it, but i guess i will lose DX12.

Still on 1607 wake me up when they get it as good as the 07  Regedit is my friend

Anybody know what the different version numbers for Windows 10?
I have a old desktop computer/gaming computer that I recently put back together with a EVGA 780,
I am currently using Windows 10 version 1703 and tried updating to 1709.
1709 would keep crashing after installing and trying to boot up to the login screen.
After trying several times it finally restored to the previous version.
Btw where exactly do you find what version you Are running?
I hit properties on This PC and it gives some info, but I could have sworn it would tell you what version of Windows 10 you have there...
I did use to run Windows 10 on my primary laptop, but while going through the different major revisions of Windows 10,
it died 3 times, after the 3rd hard crash with no easy way to recover it, I finally wiped out the OS and moved all of my important data
to a external hard drive and went over to OpenSuSE Leap 42.3, at least now I know my laptop won't die when I really need access to it.
But like Slimshiesty said, all you really loose from dropping Windows 10 is DirectX 12, which is kinda sad, since its a primary feature of newer video cards.
The biggest reason why I am using Windows at all right now is get to play Fallout 4, its the only thing keeping me tied to Windows...

Seems like a lot of trouble just to have DirectX 12, no?

well, i been rock solid after rolling back the steaming update of poo.
 They really need to go back and making these updates optional.

1709 build is garbage. Not only does it not install right, but just keeps saying to restart after it restarted and it doesn't even finish the install. Basically it's in a loop. Wife's laptop does the same thing. Saw on multiple sites that others have this problem. Do yourselves a favor and system restore back to 1703.

3 X79s and three dead raid arrays. waiting on X299 mb to see if I can recover the arrays. 2 machines I told it NO do not install now and Bam it did it anyway. I called MS tech support and the best they could say was "sorry" but there is no support for the X79 chipset in the crapmakers edition  

Installed clean UEFI iso boot file from usb drive with gpt partitions and no issues. Been running for over a month. Got lucky I guess.

anyone know how to make the desktop icon stay put? every boot all the icon are bunched up in the top left of the screen, hit f5 to refresh and they go back to normal, 

Don't see that problem myself. Must be a problem with the latest version of windows.
 
Note: Right click the desktop, and select view, make sure align icons to grid is check marked.

that was checked but auto align icons was not, strange. hope that fixed it.

If you press a key on the keyboard after shutdown, it lights up and stays lighted 

 
Not having the issue with my G11 and Win10 FCU, but that can be caused by ERP/EUP Mode being disabled (the default setting) in the BIOS..Enable ERP/EUP Mode if your BIOS has that option in the power settings and see if it matters..Also, in the Device Manager -> Keyboards properties there may be a Power Management tab where you can uncheck 'Allow this device to wake the computer' that might have some effect too.

After the Fall Creators Update, I started having all kinds of problems with my computer.  I couldn't update the Nvidia drivers, and after trying, it wouldn't even find the GTX 1080Ti's or show them in Device Manager.  It was using just a generic MS driver and after a while, it wouldn't even recognize the second monitor I have.
 
I tried the System Restore, and that wouldn't even complete.  It kept saying it couldn't find a file.  I tried 'sfc /scannow', and that said everything was good.  I then ran 'DISM', using a freshly downloaded copy of Win 10 on a flash drive as a source to replace corrupted files.  That didn't fix it either.
 
Eventually, I used the option to reinstall Windows, but keep my files.  It kept all my files but uninstalled a bunch of programs that I now have to reinstall and I'm having a heck of a time finding all the original disks with the serial numbers on them.
 
At least the computer is running and up to date and I'm able to update the video drivers, but it took a whole weekend just to get it back to where it's got enough of my programs on it to be usable.  For years, we've used Windows Live Mail, and my wife won't even try to learn another email program.  Also, although I had exported and backed up all the emails we had, neither the new Windows mail or Outlook would import them.  I also had a heck of a time getting the old Windows Live Mail installed and running.  MS doesn't support it anymore and says it won't run on Windows 10, but I eventually got it to install and it's running fine.
 
I've also got a Razer keyboard, and it's done the turn on it's lights after the computer shuts down and you touch the keyboard thing as long as I've had Windows 10.  No matter how much I try, it won't fully shut down.  It goes into what the ASUS MB manual says is S4 sleep.  If I reach around and turn off the power switch on the computer, and leave it off for a few seconds, the lights go off, and then i turn the power back on.  I've read that this is caused by having 'Fast Boot' enabled in the UEFI.  I guess I'll have to turn that off.
 
The one bright spot in the weekend is that when I got Windows Live Essentials to install, I now have Windows Movie Maker and Windows Media Center back, as well as some other parts that I'll never use besides the Windows Live Mail.
