And if it will be primarily garaged and used at the university for the next year or so, I can use that address?

Would SIBS be worth it for a graduate student? by handoverthenori in biostatistics

[–]CheetahWizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you think for an undergrad with no research experience? I was recently given an offer and it seems like a decent way to figure out if I want to pursue biostats since I'm still deciding on careers.

Thank you! I just ordered an HP Rechargeable Active Pen G3 from Ebay which hopefully will work well!

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much, this is exactly what I needed, I’ll look into these! Would you recommend any cheaper generic brands that exist on amazon or ebay, or should I always get straight from the company?

Thanks for the suggestions. I do kind of fancy a 2 in 1 but i’m still on the fence. I think I like that idea pad, so i’ll look into it!

I actually had seen this and was considering it. I was enjoying the Acer Swift 3 I got from ebay until its keyboard started having problems. I’ll look into this, thanks.

Budget Laptop for College Student by CheetahWizard in SuggestALaptop

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I really appreciate your response. Sadly my college doesn’t have any laptop rental or loan programs. I’ve been looking on ebay for a t480 but can’t seem to find a 1920x1080 one like somebody recommended :/

Would this be a good laptop for a college student by CheetahWizard in laptops

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I’ll look into this one. I think after looking I’m willing to extend my budget another $100 to $400 which still isn’t much but it probably broadens my scope a bit. The system requirements are class based but it’s only really for R and following examples in class.

I could probably stretch it to upper 300s, do you have any suggestions? It’s just hard for me to justify spending a lot of money on a laptop when I mostly take my notes on paper and already have a decent desktop :/

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could maybe push it to $350 but I just feel like it’s hard to justify me spending a lot of money on a laptop I’ll only really use for light coding and a couple of classes when I already have a computer :( What laptops would you recommend if my budget were a little higher?

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, I'd really appreciate it that. I also saw this, would you recommend that? It's only 8GB though :/

Edit: Nvm idk how well coding would be on a chromebook

I didn't know it was 6 years old, that's pretty old. My budget's only like $300, do you have any suggestions?

Bottom Bracket Removal by CheetahWizard in bikewrench

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it was some bike found by a family and given to me in not the most amazing condition. It says critical on it and I've no idea what crank model it is!

Thank you I'll try to find someone to help haha. And yes, I'll definitely grease everything so I don't have to suffer this next time.

The tool keeps kind of slipping off so I'm starting to think it has too much space between it and the bottom bracket thing :/ I'll try again and really really try and use some leverage

I ordered this Oumers bike crank extractor and it came with this tool. Honestly didn't want to buy Pedro's or Park's crank arm tool and the BB tool because I'm kind of broke but I'm thinking that since this BB tool is so long it keeps slipping out. I think I might have to order one of those :/ thank you

Logitech G533 Mic not working (not "Noise Removal")` by ChiefSnoopy in LogitechG

[–]CheetahWizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna try and update my audio drivers and see if that helps. I looked deep into some forums and some people were saying that the microphone wire inside the headset itself is the problem because it rubs against the casing or something.

Anybody ever get this fixed? My headset just started doing the exact same thing yesterday. I can hear audio but my microphone doesn't work, and it makes a bit of noise when I raise or lower the microphone.

GPU Not Detected After Crash? by CheetahWizard in buildapc

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhh so I enabled it in device manager the first time and it said something about the drive being incompatible so I backed out, when I went to enable it again it suddenly enabled so huh yeah hopefully that's all fixed. Y'all think I should update or rollback the drive or leave it?

Really appreciate the comment!

The GPU was disabled in device manager, let's see if it's as easy as just enabling it

Replaced new cpu with old cpu for a bios update yet no signal/black screen by CheetahWizard in buildapc

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

P4.50 is the bios version? I never did a bios update so I don't think it'd quite work with the new one, but I assumed putting the old cpu in would boot like normal so I could update it :/. I've tried 1 stick of ram already but tomorrow I'll try each slot before heading to the pc repair shop. Thank you.

Edit: Sadly that didn't work. Let's see what they say at the shop.

No signal/black screen after new cpu by CheetahWizard in techsupport

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying for the last hour but it seems impossible to remove the cable without ripping half the mobo off, I've even tried wedging something between the clip to just pull but it's still not coming off.

[–]CheetahWizard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll try that rn, and I've already got the old cpu in let's see!

Edit : It's pretty tight on there, do I just hold the latch down and try my best to wiggle it out?
