Windows kills update for clovers cpu



For the last several years windows has been pushing updates for windows 10 to all system, but as time goes by Microsoft has been capping updates for older hardware.

Systems using  Intel's Clover Trail atom CPUs and  are running windows 10 will no longer receive  both creature update and major update. They will only receive security update till January 2023. 

Most systems using these cpu’s were shipped with either windows 8 or 8.1and were also set to receive updates till 2023. The same systems were also eligible to get a free update to windows 10.

For one to receive these security updates you have to periodically keep up with  the operating system update of which are supported for 18 months then if you haven’t upgraded you no longer get the security fixes.

This is a problem for the Clover Trail machines, because those systems are prevented from installing and using the Windows 10 Creators Update, leaving them stuck on last year's Anniversary Update. Support, including security fixes, for the Anniversary Update is due to end in early 2018.

 As such, it appeared that upgrading from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 has taken Clover Trail systems from being supported until 2023 to being supported until 2018, a five-year regression.

The bad news is that windows is not going back on this decision. The ball now lies on imagination who are apparently the makes of the GPU which needs to  update it  and intel on the other hand is unable to carry out the drivers update.

This is not new in the windows world as they the production of hew notebooks, pcs and the likes its nearly impossible to carry a downgrade process from windows 10 ue to the same driver issues.


Its now time especially for cooprate think of upgrading their systems before such catches up with them. Since most of them run as old as win XP.

Revolutionizing Agriculture: Precision Farming with Drones and Sensors

  Drones in Agricuture In the rapidly evolving world of agriculture, precision farming stands out as a groundbreaking approach that harnesses the power of technology to enhance productivity, sustainability, and efficiency. Among the most transformative tools in this field are drones and sensors, which are redefining traditional farming practices. This article delves into how these technologies are being integrated into modern agriculture, the benefits they offer, and the future they promise. The Rise of Precision Farming Precision farming, also known as precision agriculture, involves the use of technology to manage crops and soil in a more precise and controlled manner. The goal is to optimize field-level management regarding crop farming. Unlike conventional methods that rely on broad-spectrum approaches, precision farming tailors practices to the specific needs of different areas within a field. Drones: Eyes in the Sky Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), have become an i...

Early Detection of Brain Disorders: Using Wearable Devices Through Eye Movement

 Early Detection of Brain Disorders Using Wearable Devices Through Eye Movement Introduction In recent years, the integration of wearable technologies into healthcare has opened up exciting possibilities for early disease detection. Among these developments, wearable sensors that track eye movement have emerged as a promising tool in diagnosing brain disorders. Eye movement, which is closely linked to brain function, can offer vital clues in detecting neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, and other cognitive impairments. This research addresses a pressing question: Can subtle changes in eye movement patterns be reliably used to detect brain disorders before clinical symptoms become evident? With advancements in precision medicine and AI, the convergence of IT, biomedical engineering, and neuroscience is becoming not only possible but necessary. As a software engineer transitioning into bioinformatics, I see this as a pivotal opportunity to apply data sc...

Apple’s 2024 Keynote: New Calculator App for iPad and More!

 As a self-proclaimed non-Apple fanboy, I have to admit, Apple's latest keynote had a few surprises that even caught my attention. Among the usual fanfare of sleek designs and incremental updates, Apple dropped a few notable bombs, including the long-awaited launch of a native  Calculator app for the iPad. Yes, you read that right. The iPad finally has a calculator, and it’s bringing some extra features to the table like Math Notes and Apple Pencil support. Let’s dive into what went down at the keynote and why it might be worth paying attention, even if you’re not an Apple devotee. The Headline Act: Calculator App for iPad For years, iPad users have been scratching their heads wondering why Apple, in all its innovative glory, never included a basic calculator app on its tablets. Well, the wait is finally over. Apple has introduced a Calculator app that goes beyond mere arithmetic. The app includes Math Notes, which allows users to jot down notes and calculations side-by-side. ...
