Mine is different to that, I actually get a BSOD with INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. I'm still on the ASUS Rampage III also, must be something to do with my configuration, even though 8.1 ran without issue.

I'd be surprised if they've even had a single order. Never really liked OCUK at the best of times tbh.

Mine is still randomly failing to boot at times.

Nice, i'd have the 19"s also, but they are prone to cracking.

Its definitely a worthy upgrade from Windows 7, it boots a lot quicker and is quicker under use as well. I've also found with the newer OS's (8.1 & 10) that over time they don't seem to get bogged down like Windows XP / 7 did. I've got my brother's laptop with me at the moment for a screen...

Mine seems to be behaving more now, I don't know if this is due to updates or because I've configured auto logon in the registry, but for the last few days its booted up no problem.

Yes I would expect so. I've installed it on my brothers laptop while its with me for a replacement screen and some upgrades, its working faultlessly on there and now works great on my HTPC now it's loaded up with Windows 10 drivers from the ASUS site.

I wanted to return to Sky ideally, but their fibre offering is poor in comparison to Virgin. I ended up renewing with Virgin and had the broadband upped to 160MB down, 10MB up.

I tried streaming yesterday, initially it seemed to work then all of a sudden lost audio altogether, no matter what I tried I couldn't get audio back.

I'm starting to get more annoyed with it than I am enjoying using it, my HTPC built without issue but now the WiFi adapter only manages circa 350mbps instead of 766mbps, PITA.

Getting annoyed with it now tbh, I randomly keep getting BSOD and INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE on startup.

A useful tip for those with multiple monitors wanting different backgrounds, as it seems the functionality has been removed in Windows 10: http://windows.wonderhowto.com/how-to/set-different-wallpapers-for-multiple-monitors-windows-10-0163236/

Ta, just ordered one.

How do you rate the ZxR out of interest? (Thinking of buying one today), but at £170 for a soundcard its a fair investment.

There are alternative drivers as per my post above, works perfectly for my X-Fi: http://forums.creative.com/showthread.php?t=714135 There are others I believe depending on what model you have, I'm thinking of upgrading to a ZxR.

My only issue at the moment is with Hyper-V management tools and remote administration tools (DNS, AD etc) not wanting to work.

It certainly doesn't seem as robust as I would have hoped, if it screws up after I install all of my Steam library I won't be happy!

It took me all morning to get it working successfully on my desktop, mostly due to it installing fine and then having issues when trying to start-up after a reboot (INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE), but also had issues with lack of drivers for my SoundBlaster X-Fi which Creative aren't providing until...

My HTPC (mini-ITX) within a Corsair 250D is virtually silent, I struggle to even tell it's running.

It does somewhat depend on the above, I have a PC in the living room connected to a 50" TV and it works great tbh.

IVue & Genesis basically.

I'd setup one for you if no-one closer offers (I'm in Staines)

Just got my second one setup downstairs, works well. Only using iVue & Genesis currently.

They were £19 yesterday for Prime members, back to £35 now. I've got one setup on the TV upstairs as per the video in this thread and it works well, the quality of some of the films just isn't watchable though. I ordered another one for £19 arriving today for the TV downstairs.

I've had Samsung monitors replaced with no quibble, admittedly when they were still under warranty.

Not for me.

I know a lot of people hate wireless, but one of the big attractions for me is the fact that if I want the use of my desk for something other than using the computer, it takes seconds to just put the mouse and keyboard elsewhere and I have the full use of the desk.

I don't get the appreciation personally, if I had to type with a mechanical keyboard all day each day it would drive me up the wall. Quiet & wireless is what I prefer.

I need to change my fluid out, I just need to build up the motivation to empty out the two separate loops :( It needs an overhaul with CPU, Memory, Motherboard & GPU upgrades but we've spent an absolute fortune on a new kitchen and I've spent a small fortune on a second Microserver recently so...

Mine were done by the WheelSpecialist and I wouldn't recommend them, they refurbed them but not to the standard they portrait in my opinion. All their showroom wheels were perfection, the actual customer items not so much.
