Thank you for your reply, I don't remember what size is the first partition, but as I write on my other thread, there was another small partition after the Windows partition that I could not move to the right side of the disk so I could expand the Windows partition to take all unallocated disk...

I recently replaced the SSD on my wife's HP OMEN 17-cb00011nv laptop. See my relevant thread for details: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/upgrading-ssd-on-hp-omen-17-cb00011nv.47713/ Naturally, I then wanted to check for Windows Updates. There was an UEFI Firmware (aka BIOS) update for which the...

Hello! I received the 1TB WD Green SSD on Monday but I finally found some free time to do the upgrade today. Since the laptop has only one M.2 slot and the SATA hard disk didn't have enough free space, I connected my external USB disk to write a full disk backup and then booted with Acronis...

There are two methods to compress video in AVC and HEVC. You either select some quality setting and the encoder tries to keep the quality there, but you cannot predict the final size on disk, or you set a specific average bitrate so you can more or less achieve a specific file size. I always...

Standard Blu Ray (1080p) can be converted to AVCHD-DVD disc which is a DVD disc with 720p or 1080p AVC video that plays on most Blu Ray players. With careful encoding any bitrate close to 5Mbit or higher gives very good quality without artifacts. If you don't care about backwards compatibility...

Due to working hours and time with the kid, I cannot watch live TV. I watch my favorite series online afterwards from the respective channel's website either on my smart TV or on my smartphone. Much better since at first there were no ads, but lately they do display ads. Fortunately not all...

I'm afraid to ask... What will happen if you just delete the "important" folder? Will you lose all your mail? Will Outlook throw some error about not finding the folder? Alternatively, you could create a rule to move every email from important folder to trash or delete it automatically.

Those of us watching Netflix will see than not every single movie or series is available at 4K. Some of them are, mostly new productions, but a lot of older series and movies are available at 1080p or some very old even standard definition. Until 4K is the default standard everywhere, in...

Good to know. I am still at build 8655. Haven't updated yet to build 8737.

Here in Greece some shops use an HDMI splitter and display the same video across many TVs so the potential buyers can compare the image quality. The problem is that this comparison is not subjective because the shop has deliberately tweaked the color settings at all models making sure the one...

What's cooking doc?

At least he connected both wrenches to the steering wheel ring for easier driving. He could just steer using a single wrench alone without the ring. I bet he is man enough to drive like this, but wanted to make it look legit and avoid any fines.

I would try to reinstall the LAN and the audio driver, even if it is the same, to repair any corrupted files. Also it is not a bad idea to defrag the disk in both computers, just in case. Needless to say that if the disk has too little free space it might not be adequate space for the page file...

So to properly see 4K at a 50" TV you must want at 50" distance, that is a little over 4ft or 1,27m. Like I said, you must watch from 1m distance. Nobody does that, even gamers on such large screen. PS: When you see a child going too close, you must probably go to the doctor to prescribe...

Sometimes she watches at home while I watch outside, but her father might want to watch too, so we got 4 screens. This doesn't happen too often, but it happens. Besides the difference in subscription is not that high. PS: About multitasking, when my wife teases me women can multitask, I reply...
