This is what the graph looks like when using Windows 7 on the same computer with the same Processor. So it has to be something in Windows 8.1 doing that.
Maybe the same something that's related to the reason it put all my Documents files inside my Music folder, instead of the Documents folder, which was empty.
This is why some of us are more than a little 'gun-shy' when it comes to installing Microsoft's latest versions of Windows. You'd think that after all these years, they'd have all that right down to a science, instead of this same old nail-biter suspense we went through years ago, when Windows meant a blackboard and a piece of chalk crossed with a teletype machine half the size of Granny's old piano.
By now, this ought to be much better perfected before being foisted on the unsuspecting masses out here in cyberspace, where we're expected to make the damned thing work by adding patches, security programs which actually work, instead of just pretending to, and correcting the boo-boos we find, like our documents all stashed away inside a folder marked Music. It's no wonder this Windows 8.1 upgrade was a freebie for all us brave souls who actually bought Windows 8. Because nothing is what it's worth. If you paid more, demand your money back! Tell them Oldest Living Blogger said so.
There are free open-source Unix-based operating systems available now that have graphic user interfaces which are just as attractive as anything in Windows or Macs, and they work with about 1,150 pre-built and pre-tested compatible programs, and they can do anything for you that you can do on a Windows machine after you get it fixed up enough to run smoothly and they do all this right out of the box, as soon as you install them. Try PC-BSD if you need proof.
And if they can do it, then why the hell can't Microsoft? And that's my Question Everything for this evening, Folks.
