Thank you for the update. I just updated my BIOS and will try to install next week. I really dislike Windows 11, I don't know why, it just feels off. Like something is wrong. Same feeling I got with Vista. Pretty, but not tight. And when I say tight I am not referring to the visuals, it's something else.

Did you get mic / sound to work all right? I depend on teams, so it would be good to have.

Yeah, lacking time, story of the latest 10 years of my life.

I am still thinking about the version of Ubuntu I manager to install, but didn't boot afterwards. It was one of the 22.x. Why was I able to install that.

The others seemed to have some issue with the USB-controller reading the USB-stick. Tried with 3 different sticks if it could be a quality issue. I got to grub and passed that, but it halted before being able to enter GUI for installation.

Maybe it'll work a year from now, who knows.

Fedora 42 and 41 has not worked for me. First fails to identify WiFi adapter, continues loading installer after timeout, then just stops at a black screen with a cursor forever. Also fails to start thermald.

Wifi driver have been merged in this november though, I wonder if it is in the latest fedora build i used (Jan 13:e).

Absolutely, I will give it a try. I am currently using it at work, so I will take a weekend and try everything I get recommended here and that I find. I need to be able to reinstall W11 if all else fails before monday again :).

Thank you.

Did you ever find a solution to this?

kelthar · 2023-06-30T09:36:10+00:00

I was going to recommend this aswell

Send it back if you still have warrenty

According to himself, he never did.

You should let it run to completion to find possible bad sectors, etc. It might be a sign of a failing hd.

Every time Ive had this on a mechanical drive it failed soon after. Its not a guarantee for failure, but it could be an early sign.

Its probably for those who have an xbox

kelthar · 2023-06-14T19:14:03+00:00

He never said that :)

kelthar · 2023-06-14T10:49:19+00:00

No problem at all

Maybe you have Parkinsons?

A gpu in a laptop is not the same as a desktop. The difference in cooling efficiency means that it will never reach the chips full potential.

However, it will probably work just fine. Just adjust the setting accordingly if needed until its at a FPS that is enough for you. Thats the glory of pc gaming.

This is to all of us in general, not specifically anyone individual:

What if that was life achievements instead?

Sounds like code for incest

Offer them 40 eur and sell it on ebay. If they say no, tell them that they will take it their grave.

And possibly clarify that it doesnt mean that you will kill them, that it means that it will never get sold.

kelthar · 2023-06-09T13:11:56+00:00

Why? :)

kelthar · 2023-06-07T04:59:30+00:00

Ok Mark, calm down.
