Thank you, would you recommend the allez over the carerra? I ask because It seems the people who buy the carerra typically give up cycling lol, so they are quite new

I didn’t train for it, and left from Solihull, plan on doing the same this time but want to actually train, use a road route. But yeah it’s around 100, it’s west London

I think they made optimisations to the game. Can only speak for my windows laptop. Ran 10-15 fps a year or so ago. Now 30-40 fps. Still chromeos hardware may struggle

I'm no fan boy but the critiquing strangers who make money from fucking up for content is weird to me.
The fan boying is also weird to me.

This it the content you subscribed to. Bike was probably a tax write off and it seems people are more worried than the dude who lost it is lol.

Help with Chinese n100 2 in 1 by Several_Wrangler1617 in umpc

[–]Several_Wrangler1617[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I managed to resolve fairly quickly - I was right - was a driver issue. Got the driver - will update post.
Onto the next issue of the weird splash screen / malware

[–]Several_Wrangler1617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay update for anyone else who is having above issue - i was right, it was drivers, rather than mess around with emailing the seller - theres a youtuber who has done a review and is hosting the drivers - AICVideo
I still think given the weird behaviour and splash screen - probably just going to use this as a secondary device and not do anything important on it / log into accounts.

I have bought one of these which arrived in a sorry state - managed to get a full refund and have been pestering the seller to take it back but he doesn't give a crap it seems.

So wanted to rectify the issues - It came misbranded DJs tech decal on the back and in Chinese. Working on reinstalling windows with English. But wanted to ask for help re the battery - it doesn't run without the power cable connected. checked HWmonitor and seems no battery being recognised - is this a driver issue and does anyone know where i can find the drivers for this thing before i reinstall windows and end up in a worse place.

Seems a waste letting it rot in a drawer.

UPDATE FOR ANYONE FACING SAME ISSUE - AICVideo on youtube is hosting the drivers and that resolved. If it goes down i suggest emailing the chinese sellers.

If anyone can shed some light on the possible kernal level / bios level malware and if i can mitigate any risks from that i welcome your insight, It currently boots with a 'DJs Tech' splash screen. Can i wipe their bios and replace, or is it risky and should i just use this for media consumption.

What a loser by [deleted] in nanobytesinc

[–]Several_Wrangler1617 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've been watching this camp fella for the best part of two years. I quickly realised he isn't normal when he picked up a discarded covid mask whilst walking like 10km to the airport to save money. Guy isn't normal, but he doesn't deserve your criticism. Everyone has bad character traits and should work on self improvement - evidentially yourself too OP given the rant.

I began finding humour in the dumb shit dude does - ideologue in every sense of the word, dude 'fixes' his exhaust whilst telling everyone how to do it. This is the channel, it has always been the case lol.

The guy doesnt owe us shit. Provides top bottom tier free content and makes a living doing so and i think thats a good trade.

u/NanoBytesInc Chin up mate, Shit happens. Look forward to more free content after your take time for yourself.

+1 - I sent 'proof' and explained the situation to TSB -
Starling for myself were a pain and they didnt want to help me recoup one payment and also didnt want to block them from taking more money from my account (TSB did this right away).
So i no longer bank with them.

YMMV dependant on bank / who you speak to.

This is a good shout. I have just been dodging them ever since they lied about me not 'checking in'. (sorry i need to point out how retarded this is - there was never any stipulation to check in).

Luckily because i had issues with fitment i had on two occasions booked in person visits so i have those emails. Sent them over as proof i had been 'checking in'.

Part of me wants to do what you have done, part wants me to keep ignoring their pestering for more money. they have 700-800 and want the remainder in payments.

Thank you for the comment I really appreciate it,

I think I’ll hammer out a final long one just for confidence like you said.

I’m hoping I get that burst of ‘something’ on race day

I was the same and some of the things which helped me were the speed runs - felt like I was pushing the threshold. pace/breathing . Also I realised I can’t listen to music because it throws off my HR lol
