Do you need WiFi to play Nintendo Switch?
No, the Nintendo Switch does not NEED WiFi except for in the beginning when you set it up and create/link a Nintendo account to the Nintendo Store. After that you don’t necessarily NEED WiFi, but it’s highly recommended as it will keep your experience optimal. You also need software updates from time to time so you’ll need WiFi for that to keep up to date.
Skyrim wont switch sound devices?
If i start Skyrim up with my headphones plugged in, and later i decide to unplug and use speakers, the sound wont switch over. i can only plug in headphones and use them, but half the time the headphones wont work again if i plug it in again. I have to restart Skyrim in order for it to switch Sound Devices.. Same goes for starting up with speakers and trying to use headphones later, the sound wont transfer. Other Games and programs have no problem switching sound devices. Any solution for this?
Why would any PlayStation owner buy a Nintendo Switch over a PS Vita now that remote playing has been introduced on PS Vita?
Remote play was a great idea on paper however Sony abandoned the vita not long after its release and I believe it has either been formally discontinued or will be next year. The Vita platform never took off partially because Sony never really backed it much like their VR platform.The switch is a revolutionary system that will cause MS and Sony to consider adding true portability to future systems. Key word is consider. The ability to take the switch and all of its full, console, retail games on the go is amazing. The system has 100% functionality without the dock. The only difference is 720p vs 1080p.People want Nintendo for the exclusives and because it keeps the kids from hogging the PlayStation all day.If Sony were as serious about Remote Play as they once acted then they would be studying the switch and looking at ways to make a PS handheld capable of playing retail console games.By the end of 2018 the switch library will be equal to the 5-year old Vita library and within 2 years it will dwarf it. It’s also nearly impossible to find a Vita at retail and used ones still go for $150-$175 around me. Not worth it unless you can find one for $50.
My xbox 360 wont load in game save files?
You can go to your storage settings and check whether your data is corrupt by looking for an exclamation mark in a yellow circle next to the name of the savegame. Did you turn off your xbox while it was saving? Or went to dashboard when it was saving? Most if not all games show you an onscreen indicator when the game is saving content. When they do, you must not turn off your console or end the game in any way, like going to dashboard. That will corrupt your savegame. In very rare cases savegames will corrupt without you doing anything. That's just bad luck. If you haven't done anything and your savegames are corrupted, there might be a problem with your storage device. In that case contact Microsoft support. Also I don't know if this is possible to not correctly loading your saves when other data is corrupt, like your profile or some update messing things up. You can check for the first by going to your storage settings and look for the aforementioned exclamation mark near your profile data. If it's there, you can log out and delete your profile and redownload it from xbox live. You can also try to erase all updates and redownload them. For that go to storage settings where it shows your storage devices. Press LB RB X LB RB X and confirm. You'll be logged out and when you log back in you'll be prompted to install updates. Confirm and see if that helps. If it doesn't go to support.microsoft.com and chat with xbox live support. If you have Xbox Live Gold I recommend storing your saves in the cloud. Here's a detailed description on how to do that: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live/... Hope that helps.

Why can't Windows users switch to Linux?
BecauseLinux OS works or functions very differently than Windows . Linux cannot run any Windows software therefore no Win Games .You should have basic knwledge of kernel , shell and distribution you use .You should be comfortable with command line interface Terminal .Linux is not completely GUI based like Windows . To complete the task you should know basic commands .You should have the basic knowledge of various package manager and there command syntax to install and remove any software in linux . These commands and package manager are different for different distribution .It is difficult to work on Linux . Not user friendly .It is open source therefore everything is available for free . Just need the lot of knowledge to get the job done .In Linux as root user it gives you any permission to modify and delete any file and I mean also system file and if you delete it then your os will break or crash . Windows dont allow you to mess up any system files . Windows only allow Virus to mess up the system files .To fix any error in Linux you have to go through lot of commands and edit files even system files to remove errors and manage system .Today Linux has become so advance and with user friendly GUI , other GNU software technologies , improved security and has vast application .Unlike Windows Linux has many user interfaces . You can choose anyA total Windows user will not be comfortable with any Linux GUI . Even in Linux he will try to find start button , My computer , C drive , etc . For these people It is hard to navigate in Linux GUI as the never seen any other than Windows and complain about unfriendly GUI of Linux .To use Linux You have to keep on learning and apply knowledge .Also choice of OS depends on needs of users like if you want to play heavy games and some software that only require Windows OS .For advance knowledge , software developement , programing , etc require Linux or MAC OS
Is running a game in real time priority safe?
No. Never do this. Under any circumstances.As far as I am aware, input devices use priority level 15 (non-realtime critical) together with device drivers and the like.Normal threads run at priorities 1–15, while the special value of priority 0 is used for an idle thread.Realtime priorities are 16–31, where system administrator permissions are required to set this. The reason for this is that you can completely bork your system over with a realtime priority thread.Realtime priority means that any input the process sends will be processed in real time as far as possible, sacrificing everything else to do so. Since 16>15, it will prioritise running that game’s internal processes over anything including your inputs.Since people only think about doing this with very CPU-intensive games to start with, if that game locks your CPU utilisation at 100%, none of your commands will reach the computer. Want to kill the game with Task Manager? Too bad - your keyboard is lower priority, and no matter how hard you smash ctrl-alt-delete, your commands will be overridden by your game and nothing will happen.The only way to save a computer like this is to turn off the computer from the main power switch, and if a realtime priority application was set to Startup, the only way to save that system would be to change the setting in Safe Mode.Lesser versions of the problem at, say, 90-odd% utilisation or intermittent 100%s are recoverable, but would take inordinate amounts of time to do so.Do NOT use realtime priority for a game. This priority setting is for things more important to keep running than even your keyboard and mouse, and which take very low amounts of CPU-time, applications which are in general completely beyond the scope of a normal end-user’s user experience.If you must improve CPU allocation for a game, set the game as High and ensure no other process runs at High. Don’t touch the realtime setting.
