    I have tried that security software before but how realistic it is in protecting a system is still something the security community doesn't agree on. Some say because the developers are Chinese there is every reason to underestimate the capacity to protect a system. Nevertheless, I like the GUI and it is simple and aesthetic.

    Norton's refuses to install. Says win10 is beta and untested so it won't install it until released.

    My Malwarebyte Anti-Malware installs and runs seemingly fine so far.

    I got a problem with i guess intel hd 3000 driver. Rival Knights is crashing often when i try to click a interface buttons (not always). It just restarts app. With normal games i havent any problems. Only with windows store apps. It force me to reinstall windows 8.1 :( I was trying diffrent intel drivers.

    Shadow of Mordor - PC Reboot

    After a few minutes playing this game my computer just reboots, I don't see any bluescreen.

    I can play other games like battlefield 4 for hours and tried some benchmarks, everything seems to be normal (temperature etc)

    my specs: i7 4770, 16gb, r9 280x (driver 14.9)

    In Event Logger I see

    Kernel-Pnp > The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device ROOT\WPD\0000.
    Kernel-Power > The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

    I tried to find solutions but the suggestions are related to driver update or temperature, and it doesn't seem to be the case.

    Anyone else playing this game on windows 10? any suggestions?

    I haven't had really any compatibility issues with my apps and whatnot.. and I've got some fairly old stuff installed.
    nothing really super hard-core like bf4 (because of my gpu being older) but most stuff hasn't crashed the system once yet.

    I'm finding that Nitro PDF & Nitro Reader, mainly work ok,
    But printing to the Nitro PDF Creator Printer (either the Pro 9, or the Reader 3) version, completely borks my machine - even a reboot doesn't un-clog it - I actually have to power-off
    I've tried restarting the spooler, but couldn't even do that
    As a work-around, I downloaded
    Bullzip PDF Printer (Free version) - at least that works !​

    What graphic processing unit are you using? The Shadow of Mogdor, being a modern game, would definitely demand high GPU. I can barely run any modern games on my Intel HD 4400(though is very poor for playing games) without lagging.

    If it is like Win8.x, only Flash for ActiveX (IE) is provided. You need to install Flash plugin (Fx, Opera) yourself.

    No, you are not. At least, none did I know of for Firefox. If you have been following Adobe Flash player related issues you would understand the one for Internet Explorer is different from the one for Firefox.

    You can add antivirus Eset FS Protection closed beta to the list. Works perfectly :)
