Question for you guys who started using BlueStacks more recently.   It was mentioned there was some membership to sign up for to avoid getting ads... and I posted the beta version I was using that doesn't seem to have that.
First, is there any way to do the newer version without the ads?  And if not, did anyone switch over to the version I posted and did it get rid of them for you?
		
		
	 
I use the old version you posted and have not had issues with ads. Only thing that comes up occasionally is something asking to add some apps or pay $2. Not sure if that's what you're calling an add or not but it only comes up once a session if I'm on for a while. Doesn't bother me as much as how it f's with my video card.
		
 
		
	 
That's the thing I was talking about.  If you used the newer and then reverted back, but didn't delete the 2nd thing that Pigskin mentioned, I wonder if that is what causes the pop up thing.  Might want to see if there is something else there left from previous install then.
I agree about the video card... when I run on a high end gaming laptop my graphics card goes nuts, temperature hits about 83 celsius, and sometimes it is even a big laggy.  Running it on a desktop I don't notice any of that... but it hates my keyboard.   At random times my Logitech gaming keyboard will either lock up and not type, or will start repeating a letter.  It's the specific version of keyboard and Bluestacks, a dozen other people have reported the same issue.  I was hoping I could go to a newer version of BlueStacks and it might be fixed, but don't know that I want to deal with the pop up thing.  All I have to do is unplug the keyboard and plug it back in normally, but about 1 time in 30 that won't fix it and I have to reboot.
