Whats the best Email provider?

Gmail and Outlook work well :). If you own a domain you could also set up your own email system.

It does, have used it. It needs quite a lot of de...

Ladies and gentlemen I have brilliant news: I just found that Microsoft quietly announced the retirement of Windows 10 to be 2025. No idea how true that is but idk.

Steam + WinXP

I get there's some way to run an old Steam build, but it seems kinda complicated. Is there a way I can move the Steam game directory over to XP from another machine and just run it like that, or somthing along those lines. I have Tomb Raider 1 on Steam but I don't want to go directly to Tomb Raider ...

Cant switch from Integrated graphics to GPU

Check your BIOS - you normally change between GPU's in there. There should be an intergrated graphics on/off option. EDIT: I only just noticed the black screen when you disable it part - the card might be dead? If it's a physical card you can remove, then possibly try it in a different system to se...

I use Windows 10 on my main machine only - purely for gaming. I also have Linux on the machine.
