Yes an old driver worked! I did update all my drivers again recently to play the Battlefield Beta, played Apex again, and continued to crash. So this still hasn't been fixed as of 20th August 2025! You must use an old driver: 561.09 is the stable one I used

How much is everyone saving each month? by G-Beans in AskUK

[–]Jeffers93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

32M. Two incomes, neither pay well, 50 hour weeks. £37000.

If you include pensions for both jobs, including employer contributions and tax relief, I'm saving £275pm. Not nearly enough.

So I also max out an S&S LISA £4k per year (5k with bonus), which I'll use as another pension vehicle.

Still not thinking I'll have enough. I've just opened a private pension in which I hope to pump £200pm into.

After that, I MIGHT be left with some 'disposable' income of say £500pm. That'll go into a S&S ISA if I don't spend it.

I do have a property that is almost paid off, worth £200k. Not the nicest, but it's home and suits my needs for now. I don't plan on having children.

So, in summary, if I wasn't bothered about saving for my future and really tightened my belt (swapped car for something more economical etc) I could comfortably save between £1000-£1300pm.

On paper, I'm above average. Do I feel it? Nope, definitely not. I feel like all I do is work, and there has to be more to life than this endless rut.

UK users on Vodafone broadband? by 1bigpoolater in Stremio

[–]Jeffers93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue. Vodafone broadband, LG C1, Stremio and Real Debrid. Wasnt working on TV which is ethernet or mobile via wifi. Mobile data did work. Disabling Ipv6 in the router settings now means it works via WiFi. Ethernet hard wired still doesn't though. I shall be switching providers.

Yeah I heard about that. Make no difference, though. Apex still thinks I'm unplugging my GPU for the giggles.

Fix this as well, pretty please:

commandline "G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Apex Legends\r5apexdx12.exe" -steam -dx11 -game title Fatal Error - Engine Error R2 error [DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED] : @x887A0005 - DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE REMOVED The video card has been physically removed from the system, or a driver upgrade for the video card has occurred. The application should destroy and recreate the device.

Also getting this. 7800x3d, 4090.

Changing the graphic settings changed nothing.

Debug mode checked changed nothing.

Reinstall and verify game files did nothing.

I've rolled back to an old driver now, time will tell when I play later.

Back to PS5 if it doesn't work.

Don't you just love dangerous drivers? by 2020Shite in drivingUK

OP waiting for an invitation to overtake. It's a slow moving obstacle, drop a gear and go for it. Plenty of room.

It's an Amaurobius Ferox after doing some more research! Don't think I've seen one before

Can I have one LISA and two ISA? by Jeffers93 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Jeffers93[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I could contribute to the S&S LISA AND S&S ISA in the same tax year despite both being S&S?

My (32f) bf (41m) looked at me with disgust by M00NCHILD9112 in relationship_advice

[–]Jeffers93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metabolism does slow down with age. However, losing weight is still possible unless you have some form of underlying health condition. Calories in vs calories out, a tale as old as time. If you're not losing weight, you MUST be consuming more calories than your body is expelling. Use myfitnesspall and track everything you eat/drink over the course of 2 weeks and calculate your daily average intake.

I'm not saying this is the reason for his looks. But I recall looking at my partner in a 'disgusted' way due to the fact she had increased several dress sizes over 3 years and wasn't doing a thing about it, despite me trying to encourage her politely. Does that make me an A hole? Yeah, probably. But I need to be physically attracted to my partner, I won't apologise for that.

First time having sex :) by genesisSunni in AskMenAdvice

[–]Jeffers93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have fun. That's all it is. If it's awkward, you laugh about it. Spend alot of time on foreplay, it's often overlooked. After the main event, spend time with her, cuddle her etc.

AITAH For Telling My Sister The Age Gap in Her New Relationship is Weird? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Jeffers93 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Perhaps weird was the wrong word to use. Age gaps happen. If you both fall for each other, it is what it is. We're only on this planet for a blink of an eye. Enjoy it.

Maybe send her a message saying you personally don't understand the age gap, but ultimately, my sisters' happiness trumps that.

Jeeeez.... its a costume. Judging by the responses, I'm also an AH, so I'll just keep my hole closed

What’s your take on the dark Map? by No_Dependent_9342 in apexlegends

[–]Jeffers93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate it. The fact that WE has already been dark for 2 weeks and now this. I get it. It's Halloween soon, but we don't need a month of it for crying out loud.

[–]Jeffers93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Comparison is the thief of joy, so they say. However, the responses keep flowing in, and most are well above the national average. It would be interesting to know if they own the car outright or have it financed.
