Going into the BIOS doesn't mean that your computer is being controlled by malware, it's more then likely that the controller chip on your boot SSD malfunctioned or something else went wrong with it to make it not be detected or be considered a non bootable volume and even after a power cycle (which is what originally made me think this was a controller chip issue) there's missing stuff and issues which is now making me think that the drive is knackered and files being "deleted" was just the start of the failure considering no malware would just start deleting files as it would encrypt them first before removing the originals. Regardless, the SSD is now more then likely screwed so backup whatever important files are still available on it and replace it.

Likely all you'd get is a brown box with a massively overpriced 700 or 900 GTX card that has modified firmware to make it report the the OS as an RTX 5070. Pretty much like that.

Except that video is well over a year old and the issues that were causing it have supposedly been fixed.

Except the UK still has an active 2G mobile network which the equipment for is even older then that for 3G, and I'm certain that most burglar and care alarms don't need 3G since SMS and voice calls work over 2G. This is a complete nothing burger and scare mongering by a major gossip rag. -
M4 Mac Mini 16gb/256gb

The problem with linux is that not everything that works in windows or macOS will work in linux which is the reason why I now daily drive an M4 mac mini because everything I already have works because the companies provide (mostly) all the same software on macOS. Also, apple doesn't try to cram updates and crap you don't want down your throat (or try to force reboot your PC to install updates when you have updates disabled) -

Unless your intent is to get away from microslop, any intel n100 mini PC (or any cheap mini PC) would be able to do what you need at a lower cost. I only moved to a mac because I got pissed off with microslop forcing update installs whenever it pleased and I haven't felt the need to move back for general tasks since it does everything I need and then some (I only have a 1TB external drive acting as my home folder because stuff and games). -
One Evercade VS-R with Tomb Raider 1,2 and 3 (original, not the remaster) and the Team17 Collection 1 cartridge with 10 classic Amiga games (about a third of which is alien breed)

Don't bother getting it as you can only allocate 2GB of RAM to the graphics MAX and I'm certain that most games are going to need more then that.

The final addition for the PS5 to be able to install more PS5 games along with more PS4 to PS5 upgrades which since I recently purchased a £40 PSN gift card (for £36.99 thanks to loaded/CDKeys) I also acquired the following. Death Stranding: Directors cut (digital deluxe edition) for £5 (PS4 to PS5 upgrade) Horizon: Zero Dawn Remastered for £10 (PS4 to PS5 upgrade) Fallout 4 Season pass for £10.14 Wild Arms 2 for £7.99 Sheltered for £1.99

This is for a PS5, so the options are either dualsense or dualsense edge and I'd rather have the version that has a less ass battery.
-
Don't forget to disable bitlocker before you image the windows 11 install and install linux as the linux install is likely to throw a hissy fit about the encrypted drive.
-
Finally, a dualsense controller that doesn't have it's triggers set in treacle and hasn't been used to death.

Further addition to the game collection (and before anyone asks, this is just r-type final 2 updated to UE5 with the first stage DLC pack (which you still have to download from the playstation store to unlock it in game) and 7 version exclusive stages which if you have r-type final 2 and all (or at least the same) DLC then buying this for the UE5 update and the 7 extra stages isn't worth it).

If you have a working mouse, you don't need the virtual keyboard since it's just right click on the start menu button, select device manager, right click on the required device and select uninstall, then unplug the problem device and plug it back in and everything works (as long as you remembered to shut down iCue before you started the whole uninstalling drivers thing). That driver is the reason I stopped using my corsair scimitar MMO mouse and iCue is the reason I stopped using any corsair device considering how frequently is messed around with the windows audio service. Another way to fix this issue without having to mess around with uninstalling and reinstalling drivers is to not have iCue running at all.

Account created earlier this year. Zero seller feedback. Only selling five items all shipped from China all at low prices. You're either not going to get your item, or the seller is going to demand a massive amount in "shipping costs" after you place your order, either way it should be avoided like the plague.
