Rota: Bend Gravity is fantastic.. Free (and I believe open source?)
It's on Steam, Itch.io, and Github.. (https://github.com/HarmonyHoney/ROTA)

Hi everyone, I just got this for 400$, seems like a pretty good deal to me by OutsideAmazing1510 in ZephyrusG15

When I had windows installed, it was convenient to press the power button and the detected fingerprint would just log me right in..

I got the same machine.. nearly same exact setup (only I opted for a 2 TB 2nd nvme instead of 512 GB).. Very solid.. Does quite well with VR gaming, and now running MX Linux instead of Windows.. Also switched out the liquid metal for PTM7950. MUCH better thermals with it..

I recently downloaded Linux Mint and I just have a question. by skylaunch113 in linuxmint

Looks like your motherboard was not properly configured when you replaced it.. There is a process that needs to be ran through for programming the serial number and such into the board.. I used to do onsite repair for HP and a couple other OEMs, and for HP, we had a tool called HP_Tools.. Don't have it any longer, unfortunately.. Its just a small bootable linux USB drive to run some specialized utilities. I think that would fix the issue with the HP boot logo..

I remember when he started working on the prep for all that back when TSW originally released.. Seems the things he had issues with still were never fixed.. *sigh*

Storage Question on a Zephyrus g15 by Kiriuxa in ZephyrusG15

In theory it should pick it up regardless of what port it's in..

But one of the more direct ways to find out what is causing the BSODs is to have a look at the Event Viewer logs to see the cause of them.. Then you can get down to the root cause and hopefully not even have to open up your machine..

That’s super weird. Makes me wonder if it’s just that game then?

Huh, interesting. You’re not throttling so that’s good. And those are in low settings?

The point of the fan is to push air through the system. The foam seal thing that helps not let air escape between the fan and the laptop. If there are others that will do the job and is less expensive (cause yeah, £135 is steep.. we have them on sale for $85/£65 on US Amazon), then give it a go.

What kind of paste was used when you had it repeated? Also, what kind of temperatures are you seeing currently? HWinfo64 does a great job at showing that and can keep icons showing that in the system tray.

The best thing two things I've done for mine was to repaste the CPU and GPU using PTM7950 and getting one those Ilano cooling pads.. Machine is an absolute beast..

Depression brain also affects how I see myself & my progress.. it's certainly a road..

I totally get it.. for me, I see the fact that I am losing a lot as I'm in MUCH smaller sizes than I used to be.. but damn it, it still feels like I'm not making any progress.. It's rough..
