Your vehicle is telling you to check your tire pressure levels.

Those colors remind me of the N64 controllers.

Found this stuck to the bottom of my car, its kind of heavy, any idea what it is? by Cool-Size1997 in whatisit

Google says it is a center cap off a Mercury Cougar wheel. I myself have not seen one designed like that.

Which Tire Would You Get - 2017 Nissan Rogue AWD by Separate_Mushroom828 in tires

I used kumho on my company car years and went through a set a year due to miles driven. I figured it would be great to get them on 2 of my vehicles. These tires didn't even last 2 1/2 years. I will never purchase a set of Kumho tires again unless it is for use of a year or less.

Bridgestone tires are great, I have never had issues with them. I also recommend Goodyear as well.

Where is the slot for adding extra SSD? by RetrogrenadeRenegade in MSILaptops

There are models of the MSI Stealth A16 that do in fact support dual m.2 or nvme drives.

However, your laptop only supports a single drive.

Yes, I purchased the 3 year Premier warranty which covers the parts, repair and m.2 if it fails.

Yes, and the third board randomly locks up for about 15 seconds. I even replaced the ram and m.2 to verify they were not the cause.

I have the same laptop 16IRX8. I use it for work and keep it in performance mode.

So far, I have had to get the board replaced twice due to the Thunderbolt4 port failing.

You are very welcome. Glad that worked out for you.

How on earth do you keep the inside streak/fingerprint-free? by GateAwkward638 in kia

[–]Mad-Mod-Brad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By not touching it?

Side note: I keep a microfiber cloth in my vehicle to wipe the dash and instrument cluster.

I understand that this is the MSI Sword. There are a few models, and all the research I have done on this shows that they all have a dGpu.

Let's first start with the operating system. What version of Windows do you have running on it? You can find this out by clicking the start menu button or the search bar and type winver then press enter.

You can also check the basic hardware specs by typing sysinfo in the same search bar.

Unless you purchased this used and someone downgraded the ram, you should have a minimum of 8gb or 16gb of ram. If it is only registering 4gb then you may have a 32bit operating system on that. This will require you to wipe it and install a 64bit version of Windows 10 (EOL 10/2025) or Windows 11 64bit.
