So what's it like for you windows 7 users to be able to launch Spotify without waiting TEN FUCKING MINUTES, at which point it shits the bed so hard that you're forced to hard shut down? Must be nice. (4690k/7200RPM/8GB)
Not to mention how launching chrome will actually slow down the computer so badly for about a minute that my music actually begins to start cutting out. Yet cpu usage is at regular levels.
HOW DO YOU FUCK UP THIS BAD
Carter Bell
this bait isn't funny anymore. fuck off and install gentoo.
Matthew Walker
>spotify >chrome >windows NORMIE GET
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Jace Diaz
You might have fucked your install
Jace Ross
It's painful to read words from someone so oblivious.
Nathan Rogers
>Implying Spunkify doesn't run like shit on any operating system because it's an un-optimized bloated piece of shit written in fucking Python and Java.
You should be more mad at software devs for not giving a fuck.
Nicholas Ortiz
Who uses fucking Spotify or any music player when youtube exists?
David Kelly
>10 minutes user, I just timed this on my 2600k, launching from an SSD
>3.4 seconds from first click to full initialisation
Matthew Davis
>Wants to stream music >Streams a video
Christopher Rogers
Not OP, I use it because its pratical and I like their suggestion algorithm, do you have a substitute with that feature (with the same quality)?
John Hernandez
I just closed and relaunched chrome with multiple tabs open while playing music
No skip
Build a better rig faggot
Nicholas Morris
Use mps-youtube or mpv+youtube-dl if ypu want to stream just the audio.

Should I update when it's free? t: goy
Levi Lee
Yeah, just disable all the features you dont want when it asks you in setup
Unless you want to go full tinfoil, you're not gonna escape all data collection. Windows 7 is going to be LE BOTNET XDD soon.
Isaiah Kelly
this is a bait but w/e, maybe someone will read it >Not to mention how launching chrome will actually slow down the computer so badly for about a minute that my music actually begins to start cutting out. time to check ur hdd and sata cable; open resource monitor and check response times
Jayden Reyes
>using a spinning drive in WIndows 10 also Windows upgrades always suck, that's why you do the "reset my PC" option in Windows 10 after getting your free upgrade, so Windows installs clean but migrates your files/folders.
John Sanders
here Also the spotify client for windows is total shit, if I go past February 2016 on my client (and it automatically updates) it says every song isn't available even though I have premium, this makes no sense. I've tried all the troubleshooting they've suggested and nothing works.
Agile software development, everyone!
Blake Robinson
>8gb of ram >thinks that's in any way enough to run a modern PC
Nathan Wood
I don't have any issues with my windows 10, maybe its because intel drivers suck.
Leo Adams
Microsoft is also allowing computers with clear issues on hardware to upgrade to Windows 10, which is a bad idea.
Example: I built my parents a Core 2 Duo build in 2007. Ran vista fine when I built it, upgraded to 7 fine later (clean install). But it had hardware that was considered EOL by Intel (chipset) and AMD (graphics card). No drivers existed for 10, only "basic functionality" drivers on Windows update
It upgraded to ten and performed fucking horribly.
Now it's trying to upgrade my father's PC (Core 2 Quad built in 2008, Win7, with Intel 9 series RAID controller in RAID1) and Intel says the RAID is not even supported on WIndows 10. I could easily see the RAID not surviving the attempt so I ran Never10 to block Windows 10 upgrade via Group Policy.
Plenty of hardware built in the last four years or so can run 10 fine, but there NEEDS to be a cutoff on hardware support, and Microsoft is NOT doing an adequate job for this.
Julian Gonzalez
>uses chrome, actually lags Use K-Meleon
>spinning hard drive Get an SSD you faggot
>actually uses spotify SoulSeek and Foobar
>Windows 10 Windows 7 and Never10
Charles Phillips
I have a Windows 7 with all the updates until April, it was a ISO. I ran the aegis script, installed all I need and pulled the internet cable from that bitch. I do my browsing on my laptop, it's perfect. So, if you don't update Windows 7, it will be fine, but it's still a botnet, it's made by Microsoft.
Adam James
Oh wow this is still alive
Adrian Rodriguez
>FUCKING SOULSEEK
John Green
> slow down the computer so badly for about a minute that my music actually begins to start cutting out > Not having your audio player set to realtime priority. You dont deserve music then.
Brody Morgan
How do
Kevin Young
start /realtime path_name_of_your_player
Or just set in inside the player if it supports it. My ancient version of Winapm does.
Adam Young
GOD FUCKING DAMMIT I spent 1200 on this fucking computer why does it run like it's from 2003

TASK MANAGER (NOT REPSONDING)
Cameron Roberts
You know, all that spying shit needs resourses too
Asher Brooks
how about a speccy what drivers have you installed yet did you install a 32 bit or 64 bit edition did you properly clock your RAM in the BIOS/UEFI did you keep the system in AHCI mode for SATA, if so did you use the proper driver during install what hard drive/SSD is windows hooked up to
Carter Taylor
I don't even know anymore
Hudson Brooks
Open resource monitor, bottom of the performance tab of task manager. Something is using up all your disk utilization, which means everything else has to compete (wait) for access to the drive.
Is it an SSD or hard drive?
Alexander Stewart
4690k WD blue 1tb (only drive) Sapphire 390x 8gb G.SKILL 1600mhz Msi b85 g43 (Dogshit budget motherboard) Asus Vn248 (1080p/60hz)
David Cooper
>WD Blue Some of these are 7200RPM, some are 5400RPM. You're going to suffer sometimes if it's the lower of the two. Your task manger shows that you have zero CPU and network utilization but 100% absolutely exhausted network utilization.
If you sort in task manager or resource monitor within windows on the disk column for highest to lowest, you might get a better idea of what process is consuming all of your I/O to that drive. Without further data, it would just be speculation.
Ryder Perez
Oh it's 64 bit I haven't really done any of that other stuff, but what does the driver during install mean?
Jaxon Butler
When installing windows on your PC, did you have to load a SATA driver from a USB drive, or were you able to install without doing so?
Angel Perry
No i used a disk
Easton Reyes
Disk* utilization, not network. I would bet money that the issue is being caused by index problems
Isaac Carter
Okay, so you installed a SATA driver and had your mobo in AHCI mode.
You need to go to resource monitor and see what is using all your disk active time, this is what is slowing down your PC.
>Disk* utilization, not network. Mea culpa, it's what I meant (but I did not type the correct thing, brain crossed on that one).
Joseph Wilson
Always install from USB, bro You dun goofed
Julian Ward
Didn't have another pc to get win 10 on, didn't see another option
Isaiah Lewis
I used to have this issue with every new install of windows 8. I fixed it by resetting the index and letting it idle for a few hours. Dont know if that'll help with 10.
