TPM (Trusted Platform Module) has been a requirement on motherboards/processors since 2016 - if your board postdates that then you should be OK. Enabling Secure boot is only part of the process for resolving that issue - you also need to find the TPM settings and enable that as well. Problem is Intel and AMD call TPM by different names. Intel calls it something like 'Intel Platform Trust Technology' while AMD calls it 'AMD fTPM. It also appears that the Windows 11 checker app is buggy and reporting a lot of false negatives so may be better not to worry about it just now. MS can't force you to have Win 11 and if your mobo predates 2016 what's the likelihood that you'll still be using it in 2025 when MS stops support for Win 10?

Probably not quite yet but...Full redesign of the desktop - virtual customisable desktops too. Redesigned menu bar across the bottom. Rounded edge to the windows a la Win7, dynamic tiling, power management changes, GPU unlocks etc etc etc - there's quite a lot of stuff in there.

Yes but https://www.theverge.com/2021/6/14/22533018/microsoft-windows-10-end-support-date

I likely will update too, but given that MS have set an end of service date of 2025 for Win 10, wouldn't that mean that this is complete new OS rather than an upgrade to Windows 10?

So Microsoft's claim that Windows 10 would be the last OS you'd ever need seems not to be the case. Windows 11 will launch shortly and it'll be given to Windows 10 users FOC. Who's planning to upgrade? Were you even aware of this? Are you still using Win 7? And just how badly is an OS built with gamers in mind going to screw up IL-2 and DCS?

I'm still hunting through my boxes of miscellaneous hardware but got nothing suitable yet...a treasure trove of random junk. Anyone remember eSATA? Found an expansion card for that...

Skins pack for the P38 has been uploaded to the Vault - It's basically all the 4K skins you get for the P38 using Chkskins but this does include all the personalised skins used by the squad in the P38 campaign. Might be useful for the new guys flying in the campaign.

DDR3 you say? Hmm. I'll go and have a dig through my spares box - I might have some in there. How many spare memory slots do you have? and what speed is your existing memory?

Sorry guys, wasn't able to get back online in time - hope you have a good mission.

21:00 is the start time so if you're BST +1 then that would be 22:00 for you?

I'll be there...

Don't forget that you need to wind the RPM and Manifold pressure back as you can cook the engines quite quickly if you forget to change the settings. Here's the P-38 card for help.

Agreed - not a straight-forward thing to do though - I maintain the post over on the GBS forums and bump it occasionally but does anyone else have any suggestions for bringing in fresh meat?

Too much else going on to be able to find the time unfortunately.

TS has a fair amount of chat which is what it's for, but there's nothing to stop you turning off the speaker on your TS install if it gets too much. We don't accept under 18s or play music over TS though although there is some community singing now and again (mainly limited to 'Happy birthday to you' when appropriate). I've sent you the TS details so you can try it out.

Sounds good to me Michael

Even though I've cancelled the hotel room, I'd be up for a Dogz weekend
