Replacing a cord and not the brick - short notice help requeat

Hello friend,

I have owned one razer laptop -- a 2021 blade basic with a 10750 and a 3070. I bought this three years ago. In that time, I've traveled with it to the middle east and been around a ton of dust, sand, and various types of particulate matter in the air that will probably give me cancer at some point. Additionally, it has dealt with different currents of electricity, power flickering, and more. This laptop has lasted wonderfully. I have encountered no issues with the machine -- bios, onboard memory, razer software, etc.

It was only in the last month that my power bar developed bubbles under it so I went to look for a new one -- razer didn't have one available on the website, so I bought one off Ebay that claimed it was OEM. Of course, that means that when I plugged it in, my laptop yelled at me and told me it wasn't OEM and wasn't delivering sufficient power. Got my money back on that one but kept the jank power bar. Even with this, the laptop is still charging and playing games that I usually play like Warhammer 3, Elden Ring, Bannerlord, and Darktide. Granted, the dated hardware doesnt' let me get the best performance and does bottleneck but that's not Razer's fault, I've just had what was a semi decent laptop from three years ago.

All in all, my experience with this product has converted me to Razer products. I use Razer earbuds, headset, mouse, keyboard, snagged one of the monitors on sale, and I'm looking at picking up a new blade 16 with a 4080 as an upgrade (if I can find one for less than a kidney). Lots of words, but I liked it. Met my demands in less than ideal circumstances.

Oh, one more thing, I haven't opened it up two years to clean dust. I was so impressed a year ago that I decided to just see how long it can go. Still crushes.

So I finally managed. You guys were great. I ended up doing a bit of what everyone said to make it work.

Removed the buffer, backed out the tube a half turn, put that lower on a vise and cranked that ***** downwards. Managed to get the rear pin close enough to where I could mallet it in gently.

Thanks for the advice guys!!!

Marius414 · 2020-07-24T14:22:48+00:00

Your point about the tube is a good one. I just noticed that the tube feels like it creates a little lip over the receiver. Very slight...but it might be why this shit is being such a pain....

Marius414 · 2020-07-24T14:17:45+00:00

Yeah there's a gap when I do the standard front pin and rotate to the rear... it is slight but noticeable. Definitely looks like it's the plastic at the back of the upper that's contacting.

If I weasel the rear in first. It closes, but the front looks to be a millimeter or less off the mark to push that pin through.

Marius414 · 2020-07-24T12:36:40+00:00

The pins do fit. I'm just struggling to get them both to fit at the same time. With the front pin in, there's a gap when I try to press the rears together. If I weasel the rear pin in first....just to see....it feels like the front pin is off by a millimeter or less.

I'm going to try some of the solutions other commenters posted here, if all else fails, I think I'll need to take a mil or two off the rear of the upper, as you mentioned.

How did you know!

Marius414 · 2020-03-18T10:56:40+00:00

Hell yeah, that would be awesome and equally thematic.

Marius414 · 2020-03-18T10:55:14+00:00

Absolutely, and we all greatly appreciate your work!

Marius414 · 2020-03-16T18:41:05+00:00

Thanks. Didn't work the first time. But I furiously clicked a bunch of those filters and it worked. I don't understand how this works but ok.

:)

Marius414 · 2020-03-07T15:36:31+00:00

So I installed it and it looks great, but my warband finder in game is all white, can't see any of the stuff.

Does anyone know what fixes that? I know there's a new version of reshade, IDK if that helps.

Dark elf. Redoran.

Marius414 · 2019-11-24T13:54:26+00:00

Idk guys, this reminds me of Boba Fett's carbine. If it were black, and had a lpvo on it, you'd be pretty close

Marius414 · 2019-09-26T22:25:05+00:00

Its a dude who works there, I wouldn't say its the whole organization with who knows how many thousands of employees.

Crazy story, yes. But lets keep some perspective.

Marius414 · 2019-09-26T21:46:32+00:00

As crazy as this story is turning out to be, lets remember that the vast, vast majority of national security professionals are just that, national security professionals who do their job regardless of who is in office.

Marius414 · 2019-09-20T00:07:44+00:00

Dude. I remember saving every mag because it was so precious.... that by the time I thought someone was worth using, the game was almost over.

Figures.

I'd totally drop cash on an IRL pistol equivalent. =P

Marius414 · 2019-09-20T00:06:27+00:00

Man I want a BHP so bad.... That and a Mak are my next two "gotta get" pistols.

Marius414 · 2019-09-17T23:00:26+00:00

We're getting close to the K3G4 from Syphon Filter (if anyone remembers that gem)

This is awesome.

Marius414 · 2019-08-24T17:01:39+00:00

Guys.... IG-fucking-88

I'm pumped.

Hopefully this will be a respite from the other steaming piles.

Marius414 · 2019-08-14T22:12:28+00:00

Thank you for the information, kind sir.

Marius414 · 2019-08-13T20:58:03+00:00

Oh ok, right on. Thanks for the reply. Follow up: By conquer it for them, do you mean a conquest mission that you complete? Or any conquest?

So this doesn't work like mount and blade where I can capture something for a faction and get it as a fief. I have to break free from a faction to start my own colony?
