I didn't install Win 11 with the MS Update Tool. The R7 lacks TPM support so I had to do a work around by changing a few things in the registry. In other words, I forced it to work! Wait...there's a knock at the door. I think it's the monster I created. Sincerely, Dr. Frankenstein

That's a year and a half away. No concern for me. But thanks!

The specs are the ones that came with the R7 circa 2019. The Alienware Aurora R7 is a gaming desktop computer that has the following specs12: Z370 chipset motherboard that supports 8th gen Intel Core processor Up to 64GB of DIMM DDR4-2666/2933 memory Dedicated graphics card with HDMI or...

My Alienware r7 was not designed to handle Win 11, yet I found a way to install it anyway about a year ago. All seemed well at the time, but lately I've realized that there are several useful things that are no longer available to me. All of the native Win10 tools are no longer functioning...

am I just asking for trouble? I want Win10, Win11 and a version of Linux. There's plenty of space on my Alienware Aurora r7. Till now, I've stuffed Win11 & Linux into a virtual box but now I want to have all 3 systems running side-by-side. But this makes me a bit nervous as I worry about, uh...

Tried that. Looks very simple and I AM very simple minded myself, which is why it's actually harder for me to understand. Seems this is a holdover from Vista or XP, or some such. Anyway, I found a service online that looks promising. Thanks.

Occam's Razor: The simplest answer is usually the best. Thank you!

It sounds like you guys would be fun to have a beer with. My problem is this: My current printer has no "print to file" function. 1. That part is done 2. I don't have a fax anymore but my local library does. Either that or an online service should work.

No, I want to FAX it.

...What is the procedure?

I have rufus on my desktop. Completely forgot about it. I'll give it a shot. Thanks

...I currently have Win 11 stuffed into Virtual Box and it's working well. But now I would like to release it from its prison and dual-boot it. The problem is this: Using Win 10 as my platform, I was able to put Win 11 in the Box using some alterations to the registry. But, thinking about it...

Long ago I read that it's a good idea to re-set your computer every year. This seems to make a lot of sense for casual users like me who spend so much time chasing down so many little niggly things. Some of those things never get solved and if they're not in the way, we just put up with them...

If there was a reset code, I couldn't find one. But problem solved! I am typing this on my brand new wireless keyboard! It didn't work at first, confirming our suspicions about a cat-induced rogue code. So I took the drastic, time consuming job of re-setting the computer. Even though I have a...

I think you're exactly right. I thought that from the beginning. Some sort of rogue code.
