Are you sure you're running 64 bit? because from the sounds of it, you may be running 32 bit.

Uhh... ok then. Linus and I both responded after reading your whole post.

Uhh... I'm just gonna leave a quick response...

1. If you think Linus' responses to troll comments are him being upset about them.... you don't understand Linus. He responds because he thinks it's funny...
 
2. If you knew everything we have coming down the pipe, you would probably understand why Linus (and most of the crew, to be completely honest) looks tired. So stay tuned for awesome content throughout 2015.

3. Look at any small business owner. They don't take vacations, they don't take breaks. Their business is their life. Linus Media Group is just barely 2 years old - still in the very early stages of being an established business.
 
4. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy the intro to last night's video, and that you think that some of the videos lately haven't been up to our usual standard. The majority of the community doesn't seem to agree, as our view numbers and engagement totals tell a completely different story (almost 20 million views in the last 28 days, our best month EVER). Not saying you're wrong, just saying that the overall feedback from the community has been overwhelmingly positive.
 
5. I'm upset and personally offended that you didn't add "I like potato salad" as a response as I really like potato salad. (kidding, except I actually do really like potato salad)

Thanks for your feedback though. We all have amazing jobs simply because of the awesome, engaged, caring community we have here, so... yeah. We always appreciate the feedback.
 
EDIT: Ninja'd by Mr. TechTips himself...

I'm fine.
 
Notice anything about those Twitter comments? Almost 200 retweets and over 1000 favourites between them.
 
Either after all these years I finally cracked and I'm crying myself to sleep at night because someone criticized me on the Internet... OOOOOORRR I read something I thought was funny and/or needed to be addressed and did it in a way that achieves that while also resonating with my followers.
 
As for the quality of the content (in particular that intro) I think it's better than ever. You say you've been watching for a long time, but have you been watching for 6 years? Cuz here's something WAY more cringe I did 6 years ago: 
 
 
As far as looking tired/stressed is concerned, I AM tired and stressed. I have a 5 month old infant at home, my company is moving in a couple months, and my team is growing at a rate I can hardly control. Are all of these things stressors, absolutely. Do they all make me happy and motivate me to keep pushing, absolutely. A healthy family and a booming business is about as first world as problems get and every day I'm thankful I'm not losing sleep over much more serious matters.
 
So in conclusion. I appreciate your concern, but I'm fine. Don't worry about me

Haha, thanks Linus. I just wanted to put an opinion out there, but that quickly changed, so, thanks.
 
Also, I don't have a twitter account, so I want to post this here the new intro video clip is nice, but the music that was used was a bit loud, and doesn't really fit, there's too much BOOM behind it. I just wanted to say that here because I don't have a twitter and have no use for it. But I think the new intro video is great, just needs some fine-tuning on the music

Sorry I didn't think about potato salad, but don't worry, I still love you. <3 No hard feelings?

Oh, in that case... That reply was posted before mine and I had stopped typing because I had to go grab something, so ignore my post

The thing isn't even two months old he said, not even a few weeks. So he could just go and say that something happened to the PSU and that it needs to be fixed. It's an honest mistake that any curious new computer owner may have.
 
Don't make more comments like that, the OP knows that he messed up, making more jokes won't help. Right now we need to help this guy get his computer fixed. Be nice, please

What do you mean try this? You DON'T want to try this. This will fack up your computer.

OP, many individual parts have their own warranties. You have close to nothing to worry about. Could we have the specs and where you got the parts from?

Posting won't help, you just need to try. Get a new powersupply, borrow one from a friend maybe. There is still hope, never give up hope.

Trying to figure out how to basically steal money from devs and any company is basically a crime, and he's asking how he can basically commit a crime. So It goes against the CoC. Not allowed here. 

Just look up sideloading android 5.0 lollipop, or just go here for the 5.0 downloads, directly from google, they give you a tutorial for you to do it yourself, if you're a total noob, I'd just ask your friend to do it, he clearly knows what he is doing. Not to say you can't do it, but it has a risk, completely bricking the phone, breaking it so that you can't use it. Then you'd be out of luck and have to buy a new phone all together. Depending on where you live, you may be able to get a Nexus 4 still, but maybe not, since they stopped producing Nexus 5's, and I do believe they stopped producing The nexus early or late last year. But the Nexus 5 is probably still available, if you're really looking for a phone with no risk of loss. 
 
I really don't know what I'm doing with sideloading myself, so I can't give you in depth help, because I am patiently waiting for the Nexus 4 5.0 OTA update (OTA meaning Over the Air update, in which I get the download directly from google, from the system updates tab.)
 
I think really your best bet would be to ask your friend to sideload Android 5.0 onto the phone for you, as it will wipe the internal storage of the phone completely, getting rid of the multiple installed Operating Systems. If you want to give it a go yourself, here is the link: https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html

Don't get an alienware, then prices are jacked up, and they aren't that good anymore. Since dell bought them, IMO, they are just more crappy and more expensive. You're paying for the branding + You could just buy a new laptop + a potable 1TB drive and keep all your precious data you need to use on both PCs on that...
