PRATAP

Hi, Thanks for writing above. As @HanZie82 replied to me. I agree with him that I am wrong about DOS. I have to correct the title of post to looking for "New Laptops with no OS installed" Examples: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 2021 11th Gen Intel Core i3 15.6" (39.62cm) FHD Thin & Light Laptop (8GB/256GB SSD/DOS/2 Year Warranty/Arctic Grey/1.65Kg), 82H801DHIN https://www.amazon.in/dp/B09BCQCDF2/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_MYQJ0GD3Q5TW9AYY9N2Z https://youtu.be/RYFtUD7Vn5s

AFAIK DOS laptop/PC is a laptop/PC without any OS

Hi All, I am looking for a DOS Laptop. Going to Install Arch Linux in it. Will be using it for Browsing Purpose Only. I am from India. I am going to buy it online. can some one share links to good DOS laptops please? AMD Ryzen 7 latest series I am interested in without Graphic Card.

Hi, thanks for the link. I appreciate your smart thinking about the product. Basically I am trying to avoid the adapter I mentioned in the Question. When I play on PS4 I will put on end of the Optical Cable to PS4's SPDIF Output while other end stays in the Sound System that I am going to use. When I want to use HTPC, I will remove the Optical Cable from PS4 and put it to HTPC's SPDIF Output. the link you shared is really a smart idea but in my case I think it will occupy more table space and more Optical Cables.

Its for home usage only. PC and PS4 are connected with HDMI Cable to a HP HD Monitor which does not have speakers. Regarding Budjet, I want to use the advantage of Optical Cable without any adapters, which ever sound system that starts with low price that has optical input, I will go with it. I can spend maximum of 700USD for the sound system but if any sound system that has optical in for lesser price, I will go with it.

Hi, I am looking for a sound system that can take Optical.

I want to buy a sound system that has optical input. rite now I have LG sound system that does not have optical input. the PC, TV and PS4 all these have optical out. when I use TV, I want sound from the sound system ( which I am going to buy) which has optical input. likewise when I use PC, I want sound from the sound system( which I am going to buy) which has optical input. Same for PS4 Also.

Hi, I did not remove the cap off the both ends of the cable. mobo, tv and ps4 all have outputs only. goal is to buy a sound system that can intake from above 3 like when I want sound from PC, I will connect to it. when I want sound from TV, I will connect to it, like wise when I play with PS4 I would like to use the sound system that has input from PS4's output.

Hi thanks for response.. Can you share a link to any such audio devices please. I am really sad about optical cable.. One end can be connected to my above mentioned 3 devices but other end requires adapter. I really want to buy the audio device that can take input from optical cable it self.

I have 1. a assembled PC, the motherboard has "SPDIF OUT" slot. 2. a LG TV which has the same slot back side of the TV. 3. PS4 Pro also having the same slot. seeing the slots above, I have purchased this product amazon link but I did not find any device that can intake this cables other end. I romed some electronics shops and they said buy adapter. So, I recently had to buy this product Amazon Link I wonder is it impossible to produce the sound out with out the adapter? please share any devices which can intake from the optical cable itself.

thank you for the valuable suggestion.. I really appreciate your point of thinking..

yes sure, will post, thanks!!!

thank you all for the response.. all seems to have answer my Question. not able to decide which one for green tick mark!!!

I am a normal user of PC's. I started building PC's for my self and relatives.. Till today I used Intel Processors since last 6 years.. Now I have plans to shift to AMD processors.. I never used graphic cards for the PC's I built those are with Intel Processors. When I go through the AMD website, it has the names like Processors with Radeon Graphics or say Ryzen and Ryzen with Graphics.. I am referring to this page https://www.amd.com/en/processors/athlon-desktop. Say I Choose "Ryzen", does this mean do I need to buy Graphics Card mandatory? and "Ryzen with Graphics" means I can run the system as I ran with intel processors and have the option of Graphics Card?

yes, fan is plugged into the cpu_fan header.

fan is running.. PC works as normal except that error in every boot after changing the custom fan to stock fan.

I have i7-4770 CPU paired with ASUS H81T mobo. I have installed custom cpu fan Antec A30. no error. Recently i have replaced the Antec A30 fan with normal Intel stock fan. Every time system boots, it is giving me error "CPU Fan error! press F1 to Continue" what could be the problem? how can i solve this? PS: System is working normal Only the error comes up with every boot. WhatsApp Video 2018-09-28 at 3.59.33 PM.mp4

If I select windows boot manager, system is taking me to Ubuntu... How can we recommend manufacturers to avoid this (unwanted entries) in future? Thanks for you efforts to answer my question.

I have this problem on 2 pcs.. Asus H81T and Asus H61M-CS Both are single boots with Ubuntu 18.04.1 with single HDD's I understand the concept of "duplicate entries for one OS" but I don't have windows in my both the systems and still they show "Windows Boot Manager"

I even formatted my entire 1tb HDD and the repartioned the disk and installed Ubuntu 18.04.1 in it. But still it shows the same.. I am wondering why it still shows windows boot manager in the boot menu options. I even removed two rams and installed after 5min but no change. I think it's controlled by Asus h81t mobo. I have checked it on Asus h61m-cs mobo also.. Same problem.. I will Check with asrock h110 stx mobo in a while and get back to you. Can you suggest app in Ubuntu 18.04.1 for efibootmanager?

Hi.. I unplugged battery pin for 5minutes..it did not work. I cleared CLRTC jumper.. did not work. I will try to take backup of my data and then wipe partition table and see as per@NelizMastr

Thank you. I will try it and get back to you.

Thanks for your reply. From your answer, i understood that, boot menu is holding all the previous bootable OS's.. Yes I have several times installed different OS's, dual booted but never wiped entire hard disk as I have main storage partitions. Is it not possible by clearing some jumpers from the mobo or removing battery as my pc is easily accessible??

Dear Experts, is it common that Boot Menu shows many options? I have only one OS installed in my pc, it is Ubuntu & installed in UEFI mode, GPT. ASUS H81T 6GB RAM 1TB HDD for some reason i have to choose from Boot Menu, then it is confusing me, the boot menu with 4 options (please see the attached image) is there a way to show only the options for example if it is dual boot, only those two OS's names. if it is single boot, only its name?

Dear Experts, i am confused with Pixels & Display Resolution.. I bought few monitors and TV's during last 10 years without knowing the concept of Pixels & Resolution. I was searching for this on web but still confused. 1. are pixels having dimensions? like "1mm square" or "2mm square" something like this? 2. is it possible to have 4K resolution in 20" TV 22" TV 24" TV 26" TV......................43" TV so on? if yes, in this case the size of the pixel varies?
