Latest Realtek Audio drivers can cause Cracking Sound in Speakers (laptop especially) but its fine if u use headphones. To rectify the issue: DO not install new drivers via Windows Update. Revert back if you installed, and Disable Sound Enhancement's (in Playing Devices --> Right click on Speakers ---> Properties --> Enhancements --> Check "Disable all Sound Effects". Apply/ OKAY And then restart PC.
when 11 came out it brought uefi support and vbox took months to get that in a update better support better performance a all around better vm unless your on os x then pd10 wins all day
Do none of you guys use Hyper-V? Until I upgraded my physical Win8.1 install to 9926, I was using Hyper-V to test all of the previous builds. Also have various other virtual builds inside Hyper-V and I have not one complaint with it. Its free, integrated and has had zero issues running Win 10.
hyper-v uses system UEFI so it will work like a native windows but i run windows 10 as my main os so i can truly test it and report bugs
Thats why I am running it on bare metal now with build 9926. Just wondered why so many people use other VM software when Hyper-V is built right into the OS. From the Microsoft Website: Not the hardest specifications to meet... Are other offerings that different in requirements? EDIT: I guess the most limiting requirement is that it is only useable on Windows 8.1 onwards. (Little bit of info, if you have Hyper-V installed, upon upgrading to Win 10, it gets removed and you have to reinstall it post upgrade.)
Isn't hyper-v a type 1 hypervisor ? I've seen reports of it interfering with gaming experience. I prefer vmware workstation for this reason.
In what way? Because I would never run games through a virtual machine (of any type) if that's what you mean? If not, I dont have any issues playing games on my machines with Hyper-V running.
Hyper-V has been around ever since Windows 8.0, or even much earlier on server systems (those do not require EPT/SLAT). SLAT has been around in almost the entire Intel Core line since generation 1. Some configurations can however, lock out configurability of VT-x. Considering that eg the Xbox One runs two virtualized systems in Hyper-V without said "issues", and a third to overlay the two, claims of the hypervisor interfering with gaming are invalid. Its funny how people start to discuss that, while on the background for example, most people use Android, and don't realize that it slows everything down due to hosting everything in a Java VM.. Guys, wouldn't you mind if we get back on topic?
Noted. I wanted to keep that around just in case of emergency, but if a spontaneous revert can happen, I guess I am better off getting rid of it.
For the time being, officially it doesn't, but may be forced using a very dangerous trick on almost any Windows Phone 8.x.
It would be difficult to get it working on a localized flagship and forcing it might brick it altogether.
Still not enough time to find bugs, let alone fix them or find work rounds. Control Panel -> Advanced System Settings -> Hardware -> Device Installation Settings. I hate the way Realtek, AMD/ATI, nVida, etc... ship out 200/300mb driver bundles. When you only need 5/10mb of files for the components to work.
Try them both out for a couple of weeks, only you can really tell which one is best. For me its still Hyper-V Yeah, it even runs on my Atom based 7" tablet, (Yes, I was silly enough to install Pro x64 on it ) Although theres no room or RAM for anything but a tiny Linux distro That's MS and their great naming system. Both the Type 1 and Type 2 MS Hypervisors are called Hyper-V Remember the Xbone is a Type 1 Hypervisor so the VM's are getting full access to the hardware, which will also help. /back on topic.. I'm looking forward to seeing how Windows 10 will actually run on the Xbone. Finally a use for my £500 door stop. Doesn't it only work on phones with SD Cards, i.e. Non-Flagship phones?
It work on almost any phone, except Samsung Ativ S which has some bootloader bug preventing installation of new Microsoft updates. These need a fresh BSP before be allowed to update any further as the current RTM/PFD. As for phones without SD, the same trick (in a bit modified form, but results in same registry editing) involves using Fiddler to intercept the configuration file (that the Windows Insider app uses to read phone information, and acts upon what is set in there), modify the file on the fly on the web request, the Insider app does the same dangerous registry edits (based on what is modified) to fool the phone to be a supported device for the preview. Either way, this is very dangerous. As along Microsoft updates intended for the product type you set, this opens the device to be able to receive BSP updates of the model you set. Imagine HTC 8X being offered Lumia Denim and related drivers/firmware packages. It is well possible to end on a brick beyond reparability functions provided by WPRT/LSRT/NSU/CareSuite (or a RUU for HTC), if the UEFI gets updated to the wrong one, and FFU download mode will be out of business. In this case the only pill from this would be a low-level Qualcomm flasher, but no one would ever give you that, so the other way would be soldering out the NAND, flashing it on a JTAG and soldering back in (a bit less hassle in case if there is JTAG/COM/UART on the retail boards, which is quite doubtful). My phone is a Lumia 1520, it does have SD, and I have a 128GB card in, and it's a flagship, so...
