Hey Guys/Gals,

I purchased a new Dell laptop a few weeks ago and it has Windows 8.1. I am used to Win 7, and am not a huge fan of this. I figured out how to get off of the annoying Start page (who wants tiles on a laptop, that has a keyboard and is not a touchscreen? Eh IDK maybe I'm just old who knows. Anyways I am looking for the following:

Tips

Hints

Tricks

Ways to remove all of the bloatware safely (got rid of some of it myself)

A way to get more of a Win 7 experience.

Thats all I can think of for now. Its a Dell Inspirion 15 or 1S hard to read.

Thanks All

 
I have a 17" Toshiba that was loaded with 8.0 then the damn computer loaded 8.1. That sucks too especially trying to find that start/shutdown button that used to be on the bottom left hand corner

Sorry I can't really help, don't know much about laptops but if you have any questions about lap dances give me a ring. My lap has seen more ass than a bicycle seat.

I hate Win 8.1!

I have it on my laptop as well.

There is a short cut that will take you directly from the tile screen to the "normal" windows home screen. (I don't have it on right down so I'm going from memory.) The this:

Alt + r
Or
Control + r

I do it every time I sign on and it is like dialing numbers from memory. Lol. I will double check this shortcut the next time I turn it on but I'm 99% sure it is on of the two above combinations.

Right click the start button (lower left) and you should see shutdown/reboot /default_smile.png

Personally I can't wait till Win 10 is released. The more familiar desktop will return and make my life much easier. In the mean time, some people may find this useful if you are not used to navigating Windows 8.1.  https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/d8ac5cf6-461a-470a-af03-5992e2e804ac/activate-god-mode-in-windows-8?forum=w8itprogeneral

Desktop is still there.  Just the start menu became a full screen start menu,  nothing really different but I can't wait for windows 10 either.  I can understand the "hate" of Start screen.   I love Windows 8 and will not go back to 7.   I am much more productive on 8.

 
BTW if you must have start menu on 8,  classic shell is only way to go.

  4. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: @MrFuszy broo big dawg chill out on posting shit like that on here you’re gonna catch a ban or even worse. be mindful of mentioning others’ names as well. be smarter
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi thanks for the input tho I think I’d def go the route of using hcg if I do go w TrT
  6. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi nah no fear of needles and if it made me feel a lot better no fear of being on it long term as who knows if my t will even rebound after 5 years on methadone not sure if that’s the norm I hope so…the more I research the more it seems like the best choice is to just go for it with TrT rather than trying to “middle” with Enclomiphene especially now that i know it probably won’t work being on methadone altho I am tapering off 5 mg biweekly so that’ll take a while I’m at 95 now from 120
  7. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain the longer you’re on it without using HCG sometimes, (meaning years) the harder it will be to rebound if you do come off. But I’m with you, at only 22, I’ve abused myself to the point I may NEED trt. Not to mention all of the benefits
  8. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain You don’t seem it, but if you are the type that’s afraid of needles for life, don’t sweat it. I’m natty atm, but from what I hear A) you won’t want to come off and B) if you implement HCG every once in a while to your protocol, you have a better chance of being able to come off T completely and restore all (or most) of your natty production. Of course, no guarantees and it is dependent on the individual, genetics, compounds and duration of exposure, etc.
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood when you began the Enclomiphene, were you already off opiates? Cause after further research I don’t think it’ll even work while still on methadone…I think trt with hcg to preserve fertility and ball size is the way to go for me. I just wanna feel better. Thanks for your input on the matter btw
