Windows 10 Technical Preview

Rumor Microsoft will release a new windows is true. A few months ago Microsoft released Windows 8.1 which is more better than Windows 8. Microsoft didn’t mention plans for a new notification center when it unveiled Windows 10 late last month, but it looks like the company may be planning to introduce the new feature later on. A quick hack from Twitter user @adeyblue lets you add the notification center for Microsoft’s new desktop OS.

Windows 10 will run on a variety of devices ranging from PC to smartphone, so it makes sense that notification center support is baked right in. It’s unclear if the desktop version of Microsoft’s new OS will offer this feature, though it’s definitely not out of the question. Apple already includes a notification center with Mac OS X, so why shouldn’t Windows do the same thing?

Download and install the preview only if you


  • Want to try out software that’s still in development and like sharing your opinion about it.
  • Don’t mind lots of updates or a UI design that might change significantly over time.
  • Really know your way around a PC and feel comfortable troubleshooting problems, backing up data, formatting a hard drive, installing an operating system from scratch, or restoring your old one if necessary.
  • Know what an ISO file is and how to use it.
  • Aren't installing it on your everyday computer.

Microsoft are really not kidding about the expert thing. So if you think BIOS is a new plant-based fuel, Tech Preview may not be right for you.

What does it work with?

Technical Preview should work with the same devices and programs that work with Windows 8.1, but you might need to update or reinstall some of them.

Drivers for basic functions like storage, networking, input, and display come with Windows. These drivers allow you to complete the Windows installation and connect to the Internet. You might be able to get more drivers from Windows Update.

For compatibility info, see the Windows 8.1 Compatibility Center.

What’s New Features in Windows 10 ?


  • Start menu: The familiar Start menu is back, but it brings with it a new customizable space for your favorite apps and Live Tiles.
  • Everything runs in a window: Apps from the Windows Store now open in the same format that desktop apps do and can be resized and moved around, and have title bars at the top allowing for maximize, minimize, and close with a click.
  • Multiple desktops: Create desktops for different purposes and projects and switch between these desktops easily and pick up where you left off on each desktop.
  • Find files faster: File Explorer now displays your recent files and frequently visited folders making for finding files you’ve worked on is easier.
  • New task view button: There’s a new task-view button on the taskbar for quick switching between open files and quick access to any desktops you create.
  • Snap enhancements: You can now have four apps snapped on the same screen with a new quadrant layout. Windows will also show other apps and programs running for additional snapping and even make smart suggestions on filling available screen space with other open apps.

System Requirements Windows 10 Technical Preview :



  • Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
  • RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
  • Free hard disk space: 16 GB
  • Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
  • Internet Connection (Optional, just for updates)



Before You Install


There are a couple warnings you should be aware of before you do anything:

  • Back up your data first! Not that you had any excuse not to anyway, but be sure to perform a backup on your data before you upgrade if you have anything you can't recover. Or even if you don't. Just do a backup.
  • You won't be able to use your recovery partition to downgrade. If you have a recovery partition on your system, it will no longer be able to restore your computer to the version of Windows you had before.
  • You'll need external recovery media to undo the upgrade. As you might expect since you don't have a recovery partition, you'll need a disc or USB drive with Windows 8 (or older) on it to get back to the way things were if you don't like or can't use Windows 10.
As Microsoft mentions multiple times, this is pre-release software and is expected to be very buggy and probably crash-prone. Furthermore, they can collect a lot of data—including text you type or the kinds of files you open—to improve the product.

This time around, Microsoft has created the Windows Insider Program to allow users to test out the new hotness. You'll need to agree to a special terms and condition, which likely mostly consists of "don't blame us if this breaks your stuff" in addition to the usual jargon. In addition to downloading the update, the Insider Program will be how you provide feedback and get help from the community.

Once you're enrolled in the program, here's what you'll need:


  • A DVD or USB drive large enough to hold a 4GB ISO file. 
  • One of the Windows 10 ISO files
  • A spare computer to install it on (Microsoft does not recommend using your daily driver), or VirtualBox installed on your main machine.
As soon as you're enrolled in the Insider Program, you'll be directed to download one of several ISO files. Currently, there are four languages supported (English, English UK, Chinese Simplified, and Portugese Brazil), in both 32- and 64-bit configurations. Grab the version that matches your needs and let the download do its thing. Though you may want to grab a snack, as the downloads range from 3-4GB, depending.

Option One: Install the Windows Technical Preview on Your PC


Once you have everything you need, follow these steps:


  • Copy the ISO to a disk or USB drive. You can use a tool like ImgBurn to unzip the contents, though if you're installing on a device that's already running Windows, the OS should be able to mount the ISO itself.
  • Insert the disk or USB drive in the computer that you want to install Windows 10 on.
  • If you have an older copy of Windows installed on that machine, start it up and double-click setup.exe from the installation media. If not, you can boot up your PC from the installation disc to start installation.
  • Follow the wizard to install Windows on your machine.
If you want to do a clean install, make sure you choose to "Keep Nothing" during the wizard.

Option Two: Install the Windows Technical Preview in VirtualBox


If you don't have a spare machine to try out the Technical Preview, we recommend installing it in VirtualBox. That way, you can try it out, see what's new, and play around without overwriting your main system.

  1. Download and install the latest version of VirtualBox, and start it up.
  2. Click the "New" button in the main window to create a new virtual machine.
  3. Give your operating system a name (like "Windows 10 Technical Preview") and choose Windows 8.1 from the list (since VirtualBox doesn't have a Windows 10 option yet).
  4. Follow the VirtualBox wizard to set up your virtual machine..
  5. When it finishes, you should see your new machine in the left-hand sidebar. Click on it and hit the Settings button along the top of the VirtualBox window.
  6. Head to Storage in the left sidebar, and next to "Controller: IDE", click the Add CD button.
  7. Select "Choose Disk" and navigate to your downloaded Windows 10 ISO.
  8. Click OK.
  9. Press Start to start up your new virtual machine and go through the Windows 10 installation process.
To improve your VirtualBox experience, you can use lifehacker.com power user guide for tweaks and tips to speed up your sistem.

Option Three: By KMSPico 10 Beta 1


  1. Extract file and launch setup.exe
  2. Install
  3. if you hear sound "Activation Complete", then you good to go!
  4. DONE!

Built with the ground breaking Source Engine, Half-Life 2 featured revolutionary physics, enemy AI, and graphics. Half-Life 2 was a major player for first-person shooters.


Half-Life 2 also spawned three subsequent expansions. Half-Life 2: Lost Coast served as a tech demo to showcase Valve's High Dynamic Range Rendering (HDR) technology. Half-Life 2: Episode One and Half-Life 2: Episode Two served as full story expansions.


A third expansion Half-Life 2: Episode Three was expected to be released soon after, but was has yet to be. Many people speculate that Valve has been working on an entirly new game (Half Life 3) instead, although there is little evidence to support these rumors. Valve has been very quiet about the Half Life universe since Half Life 2: Episode Two, but as a new generation of consoles comes closer many expect to see Gordan Freeman again soon.

Weapons


  • The Gravity Gun
FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 5 BLACK MESA EAST

This is one of the most powerful weapons in the game. Here are just a few techniques for beating down your with this tool. Be creative with the environment, almost anything can be used as a weapon in this game.

Use the gun to launch grenades back at combine officers. Quickly suck them up with secondary fire and use primary fire to send them flying.
Create barricades with barrels and other objects. If you pile enough objects, enemies won't be able to access certain areas.
Hold a manhack with the gun and use it as a melee weapon against combine troops.
Launch exploding barrels at enemies for an explosive attack.


  • Organic Gravity Gun

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 13


Eventually the gravity gun is modified to work on organic material. This makes it effective against combine soldiers. Use them in the same way you would use barrels or crates. The Combine make for great shields and missiles.


  • Crowbar

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 2


The trusty crowbar can be used to destroy wooden crates and boarded up doorways. It is especially powerful against headcrabs, scanners, and manhacks. Take out this weapon while traveling through vents. The weapon is almost made obsolete once you obtain the gravity gun.


  • 9 Millimeter Pistol

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 3


Clip: 18
Maximum Ammunition: 150
This is a quick and accurate weapon that inflicts small amounts of damage. In order to get the most out of this pistol you will have to perfect the headshot. On a normal difficulty setting, 9MM ammo is plentiful so feel free to let off bursts of fire.


  • SMG

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 3


Clip: 45
Maximum Ammunition: 225 bullets
3 Grenades
The SMG is a basic sub machine gun. Its secondary fire is a grenade launcher that does huge amounts of damage and should be saved for either large groups of enemies, or large enemies. (Antlion Guard) The primary fire will let loose a large amount of ammo in one clip, but it does minimal amounts of damage if the shots are not aimed at the head.


  • Grenade

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 3


Maximum Ammunition: 5
Grenades are explosive devices that are useful for flushing enemies out from behind cover or turrets. The primary fire will throw a grenade through the air and the secondary fire will roll it on the ground. When combating grenades, use the gravity gun to suck them up and throw them back at the enemy before they explode.


  • .357 Magnum

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 4


Chamber: 6
Maximum Ammunition: 12
The Magnum is a cannon of a handgun. A headshot with this weapon is sure to kill any combine officer. Unfortunately, it has a lengthy reload animation and ammo is scarce. This is a great last resort weapon to take out when you absolutely have to kill the next thing that attacks.


  • Shotgun

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 6: RAVENHOLM


Chamber: 6
Maximum Ammunition: 30
The shotgun becomes the close range weapon of choice once it is obtained. The secondary fire uses two shells and inflicts twice the damage on a target. Switch to this weapon when you want to get up close and personal. It will also guarantee a kill with a direct hit to any headcrab.


  • Pulse Rifle

FIRST APPEARANCE: 7


Clip: 30
Maximum Ammunition: 60
The pulse rifle inflicts more damage than the SMG with almost the same rate of fire. It can be used in short bursts for accurate shots at large groups of officers. The secondary fire is an energy orb that ricochets off of walls and can kill multiple enemies in the time that it bounces around the environment. This is one of the best weapons, but there is limited ammo so use it carefully.



  • Crossbow

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 7


Chamber: 1
Maximum Ammunition: 10
This crossbow fires red hot bolts that will instantly kill enemies who are hit anywhere on their body. The secondary fire is a zooming scope that allows you to snipe out unsuspecting enemies from a distance. Aim slightly higher than necessary when shooting over a long distance, the bolt will fall slightly due to gravity.


  • RPG

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 7


Chamber: 1
Maximum Ammunition: 3
This weapon is mainly used against Combine Gunships. Because you can only carry three grenades at a time, it is wise to locate an infinite ammo crate before engaging one of the gunships in battle. The primary fire will launch the rocket, and the secondary fire guides the missile using a laser site. Because the target can be designated after firing, feel free to shoot a missile straight up in the air and then guide it to its final destination.


  • Bugbait

FIRST APPEARANCE: LEVEL 8


This "weapon" is obtained after taking down the Antlion Guard. The pods make you immune to Antlion attack and allow you to control their movement and behavior. Primary fire throws a pod that will explode and create a cloud of pheromones. Antlions will then swarm this area and attack anyone within range. The secondary attack squeezes the pod and brings antlions to your side.

Enemies


  • SCANNERS


First seen in chapter one, scanners are metallic orbs that float around the city observing its citizens. When a scanner gets in your face it will blind you with a white flash. These annoyances do not inflict any damage and can be taken town easily with a crowbar or a few shots from a pistol.


  • COMBINE METRO POLICE



These Combine officers are waiting as you step off of the train into City 17. At first they will carry a truncheon and give you a nudge if you step out of line. Later, they attack with pistols and SMG fire. When combating these troops, always shoot for the head.

  • MANHACK


Automated attack machines that first appear in the canals. The Combine Police will throw these machines into the air and they will incessantly pursue you. Their blades tear apart wooden structures and human flesh. It takes two crowbar attacks to bring down a manhack. Once you obtain the gravity gun, you can suck in a Manhack and use it as a melee weapon against troops or fire it into a wall to destroy it.

  • HEADCRAB


These parasites will hop at your head with the intention of converting you to a soulless zombie. The crowbar is the most effect weapon against these weak creatures. Later in the game, they can be crushed with objects tossed by the gravity gun. Headcrabs hang out in vents, sewer areas, and are launched in rockets by the combine.

  • BARNACLE


Barnacles first appear in the canals. They are globs of goo that hang from ceilings and wait for unsuspecting people to walk underneath. Their long tongues grab you around the neck and drag you up towards their mouth. Barnacles can be killed with a couple of shots, or distracted by being fed an inanimate object. A flaming barrel is good for clearing out barnacles that are grouped together. Remember, damage is only inflicted when you reach a barnacle's mouth, and in some areas the tongue can be used as a makeshift elevator.

  • ZOMBIE


Zombies are humans that have been attacked by headcrabs and are now walking corpses. Like the Combine, its best to shoot these enemies in the head. Attacks to the body will put down the human section of the beast, but the headcrab will still be ready to switch hosts. When approaching a headcrab controlled zombie, get up close with the shot gun to take them out quickly. Look out for objects in a zombie's path, they will smack barrels and boxes out in front of them.

  • POISON HEADCRABS


These pests appear in the cursed town of Ravenholm. They resemble normal headcrabs but are skinnier and move slightly faster. When bitten, your health will drop to one and you will become vulnerable to the slightest bit of damage from other enemies. Your suit will then provide an antidote to the poison and your health will slowly rise back to its normal level. These headcrabs can also be found riding on top of a single poison zombie. Try to attack them when they are grouped together.

  • FAST ZOMBIES


These skeletal enemies move incredibly quickly and pop up from dark corners. They are agile, can scale buildings, and sport a jumping attack that can be landed from a distance. The shotgun is the premiere way to attack these horrors. That, or a flaming barrel to the face.

  • COMBINE SOLDIER AND PRISON GUARDS


These troopers are more intelligent and better armed than the Combine officers first seen in City 17. They wield the shotgun, SMG, Pulse Rifle, and grenades. These enemies also have a melee attack that they use against obstacles and your skull. Advanced combat tactics are needed to deal with groups of soldiers. As usual, aim for the head, especially with the pulse rifle. A well placed grenade can be used to take down groups of soldiers. Use the gravity gun to pile up barricades or launch heavy objects at them.

  • ANTLION


Large, insect like creatures that burrow in the sand. Vibrations from something as slight as walking can bring them to the surface. These enemies are very quick and are capable of flying onto ledges more than two stories high. Large pillars, known as thumpers can be found on the beaches near highway 17. When activated, they drive the Antlions away from the immediate area. Attacks from the pulse rifle will quickly kill these beasts, however they will continuously spawn from the sand so its pointless to try to kill them all.

Before the assault on Nova Prospekt, you will gain the ability to control the Antlions through the use of pherapods. This is covered in the weapons section of the guide.

  • ANTLION GUARD


A larger version of the sand dwelling animal, this huge creature attacks with a charging head-but. In order to take them down you will need to rely on heavier artillery. The SMG shells or RPG rockets work well. You can also brain the creatures with heavy objects like a radiator or metallic table. When attacked, circle strafe and jump to avoid their charges.

  • ROLLER MINE


These machines are placed around highway 17. They react to movement, roll towards you, and inflict electrical damage. The mines also attach to the sides of the buggy. Use the gravity gun to blast them into the ocean where they will short out.

  • COMBINE ELITE


The toughest version of Combine troops are clad in white and take more damage than police or soldiers. They carry pulse rifles and will use the plasma orb secondary attack without hesitation. This orb is not only damaging, it also knocks you back a few feet. Take down the elite as quickly as possible.

  • APC


The motorized ground vehicles used by the combine has a mounted machine gun and fires rockets that home in on your position. Fortunately, when you first encounter these vehicles you are equipped with the limitless supply of ammo on the front of the air boat.

  • AUTOMATIC TURRETS


Auto turrets are preprogrammed machine guns mounted on tripods that react to movement. Their fire is deadly, but they are not very stable and can be knocked over with a medium sized object, the gravity gun, or a grenade. Once the turret falls, it will spray bullets wildly and then shut down.

In Nova Prospect, Alyx will reprogram some auto turrets to attack the Combine. They can then be placed at strategic locations to cut down waves of enemy guards. You can also hold the turret with the gravity gun and use it as a machine gun with infinite ammo.

  • GROUND TURRETS


This automated defense systems appear as small vents in the ground. However, once you set off the laser trip wires that surround them they will rise from the ground and spray machine gun fire in the direction of movement. The only way to destroy a ground turret is to activate it and then toss a grenade into the hole under it. The secondary attack with a grenade works well.

  • HOPPER MINES


These weapons will activate when you approach them, then hop towards the target and explode. Red hoppers have been set by the Combine and are dangerous. Green hoppers have been set by the resistance and can be ignored or moved. To reset an enemy mine, suck it up with the gravity gun and it will turn blue and then green. When fired forward with the gravity gun, hoppers will explode like a grenade.

  • GUNSHIP


These Combine attack craft can only be taken down with the RPG. There is a machine gun attached to the nose of the craft that will shoot down direct shots. Shoot the rockets away from the ships, and then guide them in with the laser site. Five hits from the RPG (on normal difficulty) will take the ship down. If you see a gunship and you are without RPG ammo, find cover or run away.

  • STRIDER


This massive enemy easily controls the city streets. Each leg is razor sharp and will kill anything it lands on. There is also a machine gun mounted on its nose that locks in on, and follows targets. The most devastating attack from the striders is a white laser that will quickly kill whatever it touches. The methods for bringing down a strider are the same as those used on the Gunship. However, pulse rifle secondary attacks, and SMG shells will do small amounts of damage to the enemy.
