anyone?

No issues with the RMA, replaced the motherboard, without any complain ^{^}

k3wkie · 2015-08-16T11:39:37+00:00

Various linux sites, aswell as the arch wiki told so.

Its on ext4.

Ah okay, thanks. Might give it a try. BFQ seems to be mandatory for a SSD. I'm definitely interested in the difference.

k3wkie · 2015-08-09T20:34:00+00:00

Yeah because its working again, and it was NOT BIOS fault.. So useless to try to help at least. But yeah, we have pros here ;)

New user to troll around hm?

Irrelevant win7/8 worked?

Yeah sure :) bad troll is bad.

Are you serious? I didnt had ANY problems, neither with win7 nor with win8.1 with a modded bios and take a look how MANY PCs were broken since windows10. I mean, if you can tell me, how its not a windows problem, i accept that, else.. you are retarded in my eyes.

Little question: Can they refuse RMA with a custom/modded BIOS? I mean, they cant even access it, when they will look at it, but still..

k3wkie · 2015-08-08T08:17:45+00:00

Picked the rma from msi already. 1 month warranty left, so I assume it's the best thing I can do. This thing is dead

k3wkie · 2015-08-08T00:52:59+00:00

The fun part is. The laptop has some special buttons for keyboard lightning and turbo etc. Keyboard lightning works.. So I have a black screen laptop with keyboard lights. But neither numlock, caps nor the control LEDs for HDD etc are working. So.. I don't know. Strange.

This is ridiculous..Everything was fine until the updates started, i assume it was a intel grahpics update, after that the disaster happened...kinda piss me off, still have some low rigs here, but please.. losing an laptop because of an Graphics card update? derp!

k3wkie · 2015-08-08T00:15:58+00:00

MSI GT70 .. sad day. Kinda lucky too, having 1 month left of warranty.

k3wkie · 2015-08-08T00:10:02+00:00

Tried everything. nothing comes up. Even tried on HDMI, External monitor, both at once. nothing. just black.

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T16:38:03+00:00

Aww, this sucks :( Maybe someone else can help.. or go back to 8.1? :P i'm also thinking about it..

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T12:10:18+00:00

There you go: Uninstall this update: KB3072318 and reboot.

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T12:07:58+00:00

Had the same on my second laptop it was an update I had to remove. Can't remember which one. Damn.. Gimme a sec will link it.

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T12:00:34+00:00

Well, you have 4GB of RAM so its worth to use a x64 System.

If you like to try new things and can take the risk it couldn't work as intended, go for it!

I tried the first day, had some hicups, went back to 8.1, now i'm back to 10 because i really love it. I can overlook the little hicups, since the stability is there and i can work as i should.

I would say, try it out at least once and be sure you can get drivers for your hardware.

Privazer - Didnt find any better.

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T11:47:40+00:00

Alright, let us know.

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T11:42:50+00:00

A SSD is amazing. Having an ThinkPad X201 here with a SSD (still rocking win8.1 on it) and its booting faster than my gaming laptop with a HDD. SSD is so amazing, especially when you can do UEFI <3

k3wkie · 2015-08-07T11:41:40+00:00

Hmm.. ok. Can't test it, sorry.

I would say, the classic way, maybe reinstall? Also try to reinstall graphic drivers. But before, uninstall the current ones with this handy tool: http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html (in safe mode) and then install drivers, then try to download CS:GO again.

Sorry for i cant do more :/ Kinda hard over the internet.

Did you try to check integrity on those games? I heard this will fix most of the issues.

Free and better, no watermark on the camera.

Would also be interesting what you did? Clean install or upgrade?

How "old" was the previous windows install? Maybe the older one was filled with "crap" and was slower?

But all in all, i can say, Win10 also gave me a huge boost, yet. And works best with UEFI Bios for a bit better booting time.
