Michigan FTW
ATT does this to me, apparently i live in ohio, only happens with ipv6 though, my ipv4 location is right
How do I check what my IP address is in ipv4 and ipv6?
-
Make sure your chrome location settings are set like this
EDIT: I've also seen kaspersky do stupid shit like this, remove it.
I set my Chrome up like this, but it still shows wrong location for Speedtest. I want to keep Kaspersky until I find something better. Any recommendations on anti-virus to use?

are you using a VPN or something like Hola?
No VPN is being used.

Hi All,
I have recently noticed that when I have Chrome Notifications come up that the location (for weather notification) will list the wrong location. I am currently in Michigan and I am being given notifications for Maryland. I also went to Speedtest and the location there is also using the Washington DC area for my location, even though I am in Michigan. I have run Kaspersky Antivirus 2013 and MBAM in safe mode and they come up with nothing detected for malware/viruses, so I don't have a clue what could be causing this. Anyone have any ideas on what causes this and how it can be fixed?

Try Control Panel -> Programs -> Standard programs -> Configure standard programs
(it might be called slightly different, I have a Dutch version of Windows)
Go over to Adobe reader and select the "Select what standard opens this program" and tick .pdf.
That fixed it. Thanks
-
So it is not there in Control Panel -> Programs anymore?
And have you tried right clicking the .pdf and opening it with Adobe Reader or even with Google Chrome?
Yes, it's gone from installed programs in Control Panel. I can right click and open it using Open With and it opens in Adobe Reader. If I open a pdf while in Outlook 365, there is no Open With, and it opens with PDF Architect.
-
Possibly there's an uninstaller?
Or can you uninstall Adobe reader too and reinstall Adobe reader?
Maybe PDF Architect infected Adobe reader or something?
It has an uninstaller, which I used to uninstall it. The problem is that it will still open pdf files in PDF Architect. Adobe Reader never even opens up. I think the file association is messed up and PDF Architect is still somehow on the system.

I have a program called PDF Architect that I want removed from my computer. I removed it by uninstalling it via Control Panel/Remove programs, but when I try to look at a PDF using Adobe Reader, it opens up in PDF Architect even though that program is presumably uninstalled. How do I completely get rid of this unwanted program?

Download VS Express 2013 for Desktop from Microsoft and you can compile it yourself with the included tools. Here http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40769

Yes, laptop came with windows pre-installed (windows 8, but I got licence for windows 7 at work, also I prefer windows 7 ).
Laptop doesn't have option for both disk to be instaled at the same time. Can I format ssd disk using cabel to connect ssd disk with USB port?
So now it's the best to put HDD back and boot pre-instaled windows, than format ssd disk in other computer and then replace it again with ssd and instal windows 7?
Yes, do that and it should work.
-
Did the laptop come with Windows pre-installed? If so, it is trying to find the HDD to boot off of. If you put the HDD back in without the SSD, I'll bet it'll boot into Windows if it was pre-installed. Does the laptop have the ability to have the HDD installed and the SSD installed at the same time? The SSD probably needs to be formatted for use before it can be used. If you have the ability to put both drives in at the same time, go into Computer Management (assuming it boots into Windows), and format the SSD. Then exit and reboot and unplug the HDD leaving only the SSD to install Windows on. See if that fixes the situation.

Yes, disconnect any drives other than the one you are installing Windows on to avoid issues. Just unplug it, it's as simple as that and replug it in after Windows is installed when computer is not powered on. Switching to Z97 won't have any effect on Windows as long as you're doing a full reinstall of Windows, all the drivers from your previous Windows will be gone, and you'll be able to install the new drivers that came with the motherboard, (or better yet, download the newest versions from ASUS website). Windows will likely only take 20GB or less for the install, so you should be completely OK on driver installs space-wise and if for the space that Windows uses for other things. Chipset drivers should be first installed, then do the other drivers/utilities. Leave the BIOS at optimized defaults for now, make sure it boots up, and then you can go back and change the memory to use the XMP settings. First boot will normally take you to BIOS first, and once it's there, you can restart and go into Windows. Hope this answers everything for you.

I have Crysis running on Win 8.1, but when I tried to install from an old disk, it wouldn't work. I had to copy the files to a drive and then install it from there. But it works fine with Windows 8.1, without running it in compatibility mode.
-
Make sure in your sound devices that they haven't been muted. I've seen that happen before.
-
See if you can see the new SSD in Disk Management. If it's there, you can initialize and format it.

This could be an issue with Punkbuster seeing it is happening in multiplayer games. Try updating to the latest Punkbuster version and see if it fixes the issue.

try reinstalling the geforce driver, see if that fixes the issue.

I have just recently noticed this issue with my computer that i have been using for over a year now with no issues. Whenever I shutdown my computer, the monitor display shows the usual windows shutdown stuff, and then turns off. At this point is where NORMALLY everything has stopped, fans stop spinning, the hard drive and power led dim, etc, However, my tower continues to run for about 4 more minutes and then shutdown. This issue shouldn't be caused by any malware or virus because i just recently re-installed windows 8.1. I do recall that this occurred only after I had my Graphics card upgraded. I use to have a Geforce GTX 650ti, and now i have upgraded to a Geforce GTX 780 (Asus Direct CU II variant). My boot times are fine, normal like how it was. Its only the shutdown process that takes a considerable amount of time to complete, and the strangest thing is that my monitor closes down at the normal time, just that my computer tower continues to run... I have also used CHKDSK and so far my drives are healthy.
SYSTEM SPECS:
Core i5 4690k
Asus Z97 Maximus VII Hero
Cooler master Hyper 212 evo cooler
Asus Direct CU II Geforce GTX 780
ADATA XPG SSD
Seagate 1TB HDD
Cooler master V850 power supply
Sometimes this is caused by a driver hanging. Did you recently update a driver?

Try going into Control Panel and then Power Options. Under Power Options click Change Plan, and then change advanced power settings. Double click the sleep tab and double click sleep after. Change your settings to how long before sleeps or whatever, and click OK and save settings. It might take a reboot to see it show up again after this.

Try these instructions: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows7/a/install-windows-7-usb.htm

It still comes up with the same message
I had this error so I ran the installer, then had to restart Steam and finally reboot computer to get it all working.
-
well you could do a ghetto thing and just mount the SSD somewhere else with two-sided tape somewhere away from heat sources. It doesn't really need to be in a hard bay tray because it's got no moving parts to worry about. Linus actually has his mounted behind the motherboard tray in his case.
-
I'd change out the 4770k to the 4790k as it's the same price and you get the extra boost from the higher clock speed without the need to overclock. I might also get a slightly higher wattage on the power supply, something around 600-700 watts. Looks like a good build though.

AI Suite utility is ASUS utility you can use to overclock within Windows, but like others advise, it's best to do it in the BIOS.
My location in Chrome Notifications & Speedtest are wrong

At least I get Tigers game notification correct!
