Is there any reason I can't buy a bluetooth adapter for a desktop, and use the bluetooth link instead of USB? (I already have a desktop in the garage with an SSD, 4gb RAM etc.)Ĥ. There seems to be a lot of talk about doing it with a laptop. What's the best way to go about the software side of things? Does it come with software or do I need to download it from somewhere?ģ. There are a bunch of different ones on ebay, that all look similar. As far as I understand, VIDA requires Windows 7 Pro and semi-decent hardware, which shouldn't be an issue for me.ġ. I'm looking at getting a DiCE unit from ebay. Re-imaging the disc from a backup is option #1.Apologies if these are questions that have been asked before.
But if not, a fresh install in my book amounts to an exercise in carelessness. If I can figure out missing/corrupt/crashing powershell components (MS says reinstall the OS) I can probably get past anything a potentially wonked vida install might do. Its potentially re-downloading huge massive games from steam, uplay, GOG etc if something gets super wonked that I can't figure out. Being way overpowered for a relatively small SQL DB it handles + a mere 3 light access local sql clients in a small business without deep pockets it was designed to pull double duty at the front desk for spreadsheets, data entry, and client sign in/signature pad.Īs far as the laptop, what scares me isn't troubleshooting/restoring MS software packages or hardware drivers etc. I silenced the Windows 10 upgrade nag so her staff would quit asking me about it.
If that machine doesn't run flawless 24/7 it throws a wrench into their whole operation. I preferred them not to be MS or Intel guinea pigs on a board that in more cases would be running a server OS as opposed to desktop (C226 Intel s1200rp/xeon ECC). I put the machine together, had been running 8.1 Pro 24/7 for 18 months with zero issues. There was a case where I refrained from updating to W10 for a full year after release on a client's critical server/workstation. With rare exception there's usually a catch buried somewhere in the TOS.What is it with this particular software vendor?īelarc might be one of those exceptions. However, I'm wary of "free" programs originating from profit driven software companies.
I manually check and grab software and drivers direct from vendors after an OS install as standard practice before I unleash the machine on myself or others. Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features\Turn Windows Features on and off\ Check mark the box for.
OS bundled software sometimes is 'generic' that isn't optimized for a particular hardware implementation.
