I'm downloading/installing it on my Windows box right now.  I'm almost set to start building the new Windows machine (final bits should be with me on Monday) so it'll be good to know if this new update has any negative effects before I set everything up. 

So far it's killed my internet - it says there "may be problems" with a couple of things and tells me that another is disabled when it isn't. It also very kindly deleted my third party firewall without so much as a by-your-leave. Haven't got time to sort it right now so it looks like a it may be a late night.  

I had to roll it back eventually. 

On the plus side I've got the new computer put together, Windows loaded, and I'm typing this on it.  The last bits turned up today instead of Monday.  Thank you Amazon.  There was one hitch, one of the memory modules wasn't seated properly.  The motherboard has three red LEDs marked CPU, DRAM, and VGA - the DRAM LED came on when I tried to boot the machine.  Things are so much easier than when I built my last machine a few years back.

Well, it seems that a recent(ish) upgrade of Windows 10 has given me issues with USB on my Z170 motherboard.
I have just had to install a USB PCIe card to get devices to work properly. It's a bit frustrating. There is loads on the internet about this issue, but I ignorantly thought it was the USB device failing.

I think im gonna buy another laptop to put away while i still can get one pre Windows 10

  Only ever been happy with XP Pro

This laptop is doing well on W10.

Wasn't sure I should risk it but so far so good a month or so in

I've been having problems with the HDD on my gaming pc running at 100%, 100% of the time.
It's a few years old but has not had much use. Quad core 3.3 with 8g of ram and geforcec850 2gb gpu.

It tore though boot up and check disk revealed nothing.
As soon as Windows got it mitts on it slow as F!

I don't use it much - a few aged driving sims etc..

Wonder what got it into that state?
Cluster F'ing release?

I usually blame 20 something developers & testers these days as they are far from methodical and thorough or so I like to think, unlike my halcyon days in SW eng.

I have been applying the 10 most common fixes to this known problem.
A lengthy process as its been taking an age to do absolutely anything

I was stopping the index search thing when W10 did a massive update, took hours..
Once both were done it now seems better.
Will drop to 5% or less when doing nothing and depending on what is doing I'm seeing 30's to 80's. Disk optimisation or hard work and I see 99% briefly.
But back down again afterwards.

This is good news as it's 1TB disk and i don't what the hassle of a disk change..

It still feels a little slow at times though.

Windows def sees all 4 cores and all 8GB ram.

I've turned off super fetch, OneDrive virus stuff in Defender and some other smaller things as per the top ten..

Any further ideas?

Thx Martin.
Would the scheduled maintenance do that. When I run disk checks etc it always says everything is fine no need to do it.
But what you suggest could be different?
