Ah! I've seen a similar video a few years ago when I got into photography. There are a few different ways to go about it. Thanks.

I had planned on buying a new macro lens this year (macro photography is very addictive, LOL) but my PC seems to be dying on me. And I need to get something better than Vista! :hah!: So before it does I am going to build a new one very soon with my tax refund. :thumbup:

Windows 8.1 is good, and I like it but very early on I installed Classic Shell to make the start menu items easier to access.

Did the same on my 8.1 laptop a when I first got it, classic shell to get the start menu back.  And the really annoying thing for me was it booting to the so called start screen. So now I have set it up to boot to desktop.  Much better imo.  :thumbup:

Well, I've got it to boot faster. Did a little digging and noticed my c: drive was getting full! Had too many restore files and got rid of them. Now it boots a bit faster but still having other issues.

Oh well, I'll be trading these issues in for a new set of issues soon enough. :funny:
