  1. I'm surprised nobody has any idea at all. At this point I've conceded and will just do a fresh install.
  2. push... any help at all would be greatly appreciated! I'm at wits end here
  3. Connected the SSD while the Windows logo from the recovery drive is being displayed. It still won't allow me to restore (no windows installation), but when I go into the cmd prompt and use diskpart, I can at least SEE the SSD is connected. Anywhere to go from here?
  4. Hi all, having a problem after installing a Windows 10 update last night. I chose to update & shutdown instead of reboot, it seems this is now coming back to bite me. The issue is as follows: if I boot normally (all drives connected), the computer doesn't get past the UEFI splash screen AT ALL. It just completely freezes there. Unplugging the boot drive leads to the "BOOTMGR missing" screen. I've identified the boot SSD as the cause of the issue here. So I tried to use a recovery USB drive to restore a previous point. However, I cannot do this because in order to get into UEFI to choose to boot from the USB, I have to have the SSD connected DISCONNECTED (otherwise it again just freezes on splash). When I then boot into the installation/recovery and reconnect the SSD, it doesn't recognize/see it. The recovery thing produces an error saying there's no Windows installation. I tried connecting the SSD straight after choosing to boot from USB (UEFI mode), which just caused the UEFI to freeze on splash again. Connecting the SSD while inside UEFI caused the entire UEFI to freeze. I can see and access files on the SSD on my laptop through a SATA to USB adapter. This leads me to believe the SSD isn't broken, there's just something on there from the update preventing the boot sequence from happening correctly. Does anybody have ideas how I could fix this without wiping and reinstalling completely? I would very much prefer to avoid that. Thanks for reading! edited to add: this is my drive config: -250GB Evo 840 (Windows) -2TB Seagate (files) -3TB Toshiba (files)
  5. No? I was really just wondering whether you attach the sleeving in some way or just pinch it with the compression fittings
  6. Hi I know this thread is pretty ancient but I'm looking for guides how to sleeve watercooling tubes. Your video doesn't seem to be available anymore Could you reupload it? Would be awesome. Thanks
  7. though I did cringe when he touched the CPU on the bottom
  8. Yeah but Linus kept suggesting the baller stuff first and his son just went with it
  9. 4K seems like the best to me, simply because it's the most meaningful. The other ones seem partly like things you use occasionally but 4K is always awesome Thx Samsung & LMG
  10. Too silly. The TechnoBuffalo version of this video was better. No silly comic sans shit etc. Come on Linus. You can make it funny, but that was pretty low :mellow:
  11. yhf8-vmfx Ha! Didn't expect to manage to grab one Thanks LTT+AN! Never heard of 'em but will listen right away!
  12. It looks good. It needs more video quality options - HD or Auto, what's that supposed to mean? I also agree that it needs an Android app. >50% of my YouTube viewing is on my Android Phone. It needs a better way to show new content (like My Subscriptions on YouTube, except that that isn't very good either as I'm sure many know). Good start, but a long way ahead to improve. I think most importantly it needs to listen to viewers, unlike YouTube, which just does whatever the f*ck it wants to.
  13. Hey LMG (Nick?), could you forward some of this stuff to Vessel? IMO, community interaction is extremely important!
