  1. I used elementaryOS on my old msi gs60 6qe. I removed 'quiet' and 'splash' and added nomodeset at the end of the line beginning with Linux. When you eventually get the install done, win+T and run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade That should get the ball rolling, i had a similar issue with arch and Xubuntu.
  2. IMO you should be doing that anyway, i dont let ANYONE plug something into any of my devices unless its my own..
  3. and you've installed the right drivers for the right card? Boot into safemode, reinstall drivers, reboot into normal, see if its still dead? And you deffo have enough power going to the card right?, power cords are connected properly to the gpu,cables arenet loose, psu is turned on etc?
  4. Also worth noting https://www.scan.co.uk/products/amd-a10-7700k-black-edition-fm2plus-kaveri-quad-core-38ghz-amd-radeon-r7-720mhz-95w-cpu-retail Is this where AMD will get their RnD cash? ;D
  5. im still here on my 4790k, its still a beast, i just need to up from 8gb to 16gb ram. I'll wait and see if the gains are enough to merit the potential upgrade cost.
  6. Mikko Hypponen once said something pretty great: "i have nothing to hide, Nor do i have anything i would particularly like to share, especially to a non domestic 'big brother' " Just my 2pence.
  7. Heads up, this has actually been fixed and was an error due to using an outdated thing, think i heard it on Netlinked Daily.
  8. I've just gone and got myself a Nexus 6p to replace my OPX I cant be bothered sending the phone back. Wireless radios are just too temperamental, screen has gone a little iffy and my simcard keeps dropping. Wont connect to machines at all, SD doesnt mount. Flashed it, rep'd it. i loved that phone, but its time to retire already /sadface.
  9. For your ethernet port, have you installed the intel ethernet adapter driver and then used the manufacturers website to check for more drivers?
  10. bf4 - i think that was 56gb
  11. There are already people complaining about the lack of updates, they barely respond on the forums... Im now looking to replace my OPX with a nexus 5x or hanging on till the new nexus/google phone comes out around september.
  12. What country you in? The 5x is 180gbp at argos, if that means anything to you.
  13. and now my entire office is playing...
  14. The ltt mantra, do as we say, not as we do. The amount of times that has been the quote on the start of a vid kinda sinks in
  15. Sooo... 'Do as we say, not as we do...' Right?
  16. I would look into using F-Secure. Used it for 7 years now and it hasnt failed me once, has a lot of customisation and has a lot of advance features you might enjoy.
  17. all electorincs were getting a price cut in the eu, uk leaves eu, so prices will probs stay the same or end up like finland.
  18. this may sound patronising, but im a first liner, so: Is your power supply properly plugged in and switched on? Have you made sure that your 24 pin and 8 pin sockets have been connected properly? Have you made sure that any optional power is supplied? Have you tried only running the system with 1 DIMM in the a1 and b1 sockets? Have you tried removing the GPU and seeing if it could be a potential power issue? Have you praised the sun? And in all honesty, have you tried dismantling the machine and testing the mobo/cpu with cooler and one DIMM outside of the case? Taking everything out, get a cool drink or hot - whichever you prefer, take a quick break, watch something on a laptop and then come back to it. Edit: If it doesnt work - panic, run, cry, nap and make someone else do it.
  19. really stupid question and the reason my old pc didnt start. did you follow the instructions included with the motherboard to put the mobo pin headers in correctly? Turned out i had the + and - connectors on the wrong pins.
  20. Today i build and compiled my first rom.
    I forgot to load it in the android virtual device emulator.

    I now has a bricked OPX

    Pray for me.

  21. i run an elementary OS/Win10 machine. Upgraded to win10 pro from 7 home as a fresh install, ive not had a single issue, not sure how so many have had problems or are really deterred.
  22. So, it arrived. By the sun is it ever incandescent!
