Windows 10 owners, whats your opinion? So, to all of you that have upgraded to Windows 10, what's your opinion on it? Do you find that things that have been working fine before don't work so well in Windows 10? Are there not that many major problems and it's just whatever? Let me know your experiences. l've been reluctant to download Windows 10 for a while just cause of all my paranoia of what will happen if this and that doesn't work, or what if it wipes my hard drive (currently backing up ~100 GB of stuff) l'd just like everyone's take on it if possible. l've heard Windows 10 has a lot of minor bugs, but it's just that, minor. Should l play it safe and upgrade later after they have patched, fixed, and added more compatibility support for

Good deals for external SSDs? Hey everyone, l'm hoping some of you wonderful people can help me out with a few questions before l buy an external SSD and get ripped off. l'm looking for a reliable portable drive that has a good amount of capacity (no need for 1+TB, preferably 100-400 GB) and will last long. First off, is it even a good idea? Should l stick with the good ol' HDD? Second, does anyone know any good websites that has pretty good prices? l went on Newegg and found [url=http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820313456]this[/url], pretty decent l guess? Third, any brands/companies l should avoid, or any brands l should chase after for their fantastic products? Thanks to all that help out!

Music creators and audio people come help Hiya audio people of Basilmarket, l have a few questions l'm hoping you guys can help me with: 1. Are there any other ways or methods of getting acapellas off of tracks without finding official ones or by phase cancelling instrumental+original? 2. How do you work with remixing a track when an acapella follows a tempo that is too far off the tempo you're working on without huge pitch distortion? (an acapella that came from a song at 130 BPM or so, and you want to work in 180 BPM without sounding like chipmunks) 3. What is the best 'cheap' microphone to go for for under $100? l don't know a lot of brands, and Yeti Snowball is really the only cheap one l know of.

How do l reset my Pc password, if l dont remember it? So I want to reset my Windows 7 PC password to something that I actually know, in the case that I should ever need to input it in the future. I don't remember it however, so I can't just change password through the Control Panel. Does any smart tech-savvy Basilers know how I can reset it without knowing it? (and not reformat my computer or something?) And in case you are wondering how I log on my PC every time I turn it on, I have a fingerprint log-in sensor so I just slip my finger through there instead of logging in with a password.
