Hi all After being very annoyed by the fact, retrieving the "XX hours and XX minutes left" information in the task bar ONLY by hovering the mouse over the battery icon (or go into system settings to have the time left indication). I think it would be expected from a user, having a laptop with windows 10 running, being able to see, how long the battery power will last should be a minium. Especially without being forced to hover over an icon in the task bat, that might be vanishing due to the user's task bar settings and is incredibly small and hard to read... I really would like to see an easy way to have this indication from the task bar. I am beware of the fact, that the pop up appearing, when clicking on the battery icon, is already very large and ugly... I think, the information popping up, should be customizable in layout (small, medium, large, full). I attached a design mock-up for your guys, which will require a minimum of modification and is working already with your ideas of the layout and functionality of the UI element. It's really self explanatory and allows a custom layout quite pragmatically.... Please let me know, what you think about it, or even better; I'll see it already in one of the next fights to et the insider judge about it! ;) Regards, Dirk2.1KViews0likes1CommentCant install windows 10 from USB drive, cpu is i7-7700k
Hi, will start describing the situation. My pc is very old, its a gygabyte GA-Z270-HD3P. I want to use it again since i7 is quite decent even for 2022. The issue is i stopped using it because of some unkown issue no one ever helped me with, now when i restarted it, it keeps giving me this error: exception scope invalid or Kmode exception not handled after saying "preapring for automatic repair". I thought "okay, lets just install windows from 0 using a USB drive". However the result, with both windows 11 and windows 10 is "unsupported processor". I have not found ANY issue stating that windows 10 cant be installed on my CPU, and even though there are many vids and threads helping install on unsuported CPUs, i cant even do that since i cant get out of bios.....Its in a constant loop of restarting itself, entering repair, and giving the error. Does anyone have any idea how i might solve this? Thank you2.1KViews0likes0Comments
