Hey there Trek fans! I discovered this cool app based on LCARS I thought you guys might like. It does some cool things, I wish it did more, but it is nifty. Just wanted to share. Check my short video. It has LCARS sounds, but they didn't make it to the vid, for some reason.  http://screencast.com/t/aIiutGErSN   It can be obtained in the Microsoft Store.

Truth about the fast boot in 8 being a hybrid hibernate and not a full shutdown. When running a windows gadget that shows uptime on it, I shutdown. Then start back up, and the uptime meter never stopped running. Even after being "shutdown" for 8 hours.   A restart, however, resets the uptime meter to zero. All  the online info about fast boot says that a restart isn't affected.   This shows that Windows 8, with fast boot enabled, doesn't actually s...

Start8 Devs, I have a request.   Windows 8 natively allows for the use of taskbars on secondary monitors. Start8 does not put a start button on secondaries. Unless I'm missing something.   Any chance we could get you to add that function? Clocks on each taskbar would be awesome as well, but I don't want to over expect.

Guys, I hope this isn't considered spam.     I got a great half price deal on this and I love it, so I wanted to tell you guys, in case someone else wanted the discount.   It's a nice Bluetooth keyboard/stand for any tablet.

It's at less than half price from the MFG. and sells at Staples for double what I paid!   Listed at $129.99, I paid $39.99.  Staples dot com has it at $79.99.   h...

Myasthenia Gravis   Does anyone have first hand experience/knowledge with this condition? If so, please chime in here, or PM me. I just want to know if it's as bad as Google links say it is.   My Mom in law has it, (pending further testing) and her future looks pretty dim.   Any info you have would be appreciated.   Thanks.

Is it normal to have to log off and back on in Windows 8.1 in order for desktop wallpaper to show up on the Decor8 screen?   I set it, but it doesn't take effect.

Hey computer users. I have a problem, was wondering if anyone else is seeing it, or has any suggestions? Only happens at WC, btw.   When on WinCustomize forums, you can mouse over a topic and get a small preview of that topic, well, mine aren't going away. I have to close IE 11 and reopen it to get rid of it.   Windows 8.1 MCE 64 bit.

Well, first thing I noticed on Windows 8.1 is the lack of a WEI score.   So, Wiz and I naturally googled and found this.   Thought I'd post it in case you guys didn't know.   http://www.intowindows.com/get-windows-experience-index-wei-score-in-windows-8-1/

Hey guys, anyone ever have SFC Scannow to fail?   I had a virus yesterday, got it fixed, but now I get this error when I try to run SFC Scannow on Windows 8 Pro MCE.   It always fails at 64%.
