You should love your wife. That's an awesome card. I gave up my 4070 Ti Super that I was going to buy to pay for my new 3D printer. Maybe I can get my partner to buy one for me for my birthday in a couple of weeks. I can dream I guess.

Haha. Thanks. It's not for a couple of weeks, but I thought I would get the jump on things and take advantage of a big sale. :cool:

A spiffy new 3D printer for my birthday! 12 times faster than the old one, and it even has AI (Oh God, I hate AI, but maybe it will keep me out of trouble). Now I can make useless things in less time! Wheeeeeee!

There are probably equivalent controls to the Slider and the ImageList. They would just be a little different and have newer functions. There is a component that is called Trackbar that I think replaces the Slider, and I did find ImageList. They are part of the standard WinForms Toolbox in VS...

To my knowledge, you have to stop debugging to apply new code or make changes to the code. This is because the code has to be recompiled to incorporate the changes you have just made. That is normal Visual Studio behaviour. If you are set to "Any CPU", VS will create code that runs on a 32...

They should be backwards compatible, but it may be a driver thing with your devices. I use the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge extensively and it works fine in USB3 ports for me.

@sdowney717 One of the reasons that you might be having such trouble with Windows Forms is that MS has reworked a lot of the controls to be 64 bit aware and that causes some differences in how they work. I am using C# and I find that some of the controls in my older code no longer work, or...

Thanks for the replies. I have checked the properties and the ones with the little push pins go to my C:\Users\Username folders and the Libraries point to a location on my C:\ drive (ex: C:\Downloads). I am not sure how this got set up this way. I had previously upgraded this machine from...

I was poking around today trying to find a file in my Downloads and Documents folders and ran into something strange. It seems that I have two locations each for my Downloads and Documents, but these locations do not hold the same data or files. They are completely different and the content of...

Just FYI, the current runtime version of .NET is 8.something. If you aren't developing code, you won't see anything until you load some software that uses .NET 8. You are getting the updates for .NET 6 because something in your PC is requiring version 6 and you most likely have the .NET 6...

Anything that slows down your reference clock will slow down memory and the entire system. The ref clock is the heartbeat of your PC. If it is not running at full speed, then both your memory and your CPU will slow down according to their multipliers. If you are finding that VBS is slowing...

It's a shame that you are locked into that mouse. I think a PS/2 mouse is going to be slower than a USB mouse, unfortunately, as the polling rate isn't as fast for PS/2. Is the PS/2 mouse a ball mouse, being as it is so old? That will definitely affect your speed and precision, too. You...

My Win 11 installation runs really really fast for what I do with it. I can game with demanding games and it is snappy and responsive, so I am really happy with it. I should note that beyond turning Copilot off and tweaking the start menu to not show favorites (last apps opened) my Win 11...

Ohh. Thanks for that. I have some old VB6 files that I have to convert too. If they can run under .NET that is even better. Then I can do it with VS 2022. @sdowney717 Is VS 2022 not capable of importing the VB6 files? I haven't tried yet, but it seems to me that it should. You will...

I have an NH-D15 (not the black one) and my temps were about 20C higher than the OP's until I discovered that my VCore was insanely high. I had it set to "Auto" in my BIOS. Turning it down, I am now getting much more respectable temperatures. I honestly thought my fans were on the way out.
