Startup is claimed to be faster but it isn't.

Why, oh why is the login screen so dire. White on black is soooo geeky. The sooner it is changed to something mainstream and easier on the eyes the...

Hmmmm . thanks for prompt reply.

I have found that the drive designations each correspond to one of the card reader slots on my Medion front panel card reader.

I was expecting the BT service to...

Could someone...

Hi. I've looked through various forums and this issue crops up periodically and still seems not to be resolved.

I have a Belkin Bluetooth F8T001 dongle which is not getting loaded up correctly. I...
