    Col. Sandurz reacted to DeltaGemini in PC won't boot after power outage (unexpected IO error, file boot\BCD, status 0xc00000e9)   
    I had a very similar issue with error code 0x00000e9, and the winload.efi describing an I/O error. This was on a Gigabyte X470 board.
     
    Turns out I had to disable fTPM and then it booted fine. I've since updated BIOS and re-enabled fTPM.
     
    Mine occured after accidentally unplugging the desktop before it fully shutdown.
     
    Best of luck!

    You can test your hard drive using Minitool Partition Wizard and try to follow this article to make your SSD bootable. 🙂

    There will be several new phones launched towards summer, including OnePlus 8 Lite, so I, personally, would wait a few more months. I am actually in need of a new phone myself and I'm planning to wait until the new batch of phones gets released. Spring and summer is seemingly a very popular period of time for phone-manufacturers to aim, probably because people like to buy new phones for their vacations to shoot all those stupid videos and take a billion pictures with.

    What budget do you have? I'm blind...
    Can't say about GPS working fine, since that is Android's fault mostly.
    Anyway, did you consider Galaxy A series or Honor Play line?

    Nice ! Thanks of the correction too. Realme X seems like a great device. I thought the Mi A series had 4000mah battery as it is pretty much the standard for Xiaomi devices

    iPhone 7 plus is a great option. Should last another 2 years or more.

    So you basically want a phone with <6" screen size, good battery and stock android ? Well, most of the modern devices have a screen size >6". I would recommend the Xiaomi Mi A1. It has a 5.5" screen, no notch, simple yet nice design, SD 625, 4000mah battery and android One. The Mi A2 is a good choice too for her. Also, check out the Mi A2 Lite if that's available.

    It's a solid first body to learn on. I'd be a bit wary of giving it to a 12yo, but that's up to you... No weather sealing of any kind, or tolerance for being dropped.
     
    And I'd like to say that it's an honor, Colonel.

    Would work I guess but it will be bulkier than a mirrorless. It all depends on if the kid has no issue with carrying bulkier stuff or not. Imho there are great used mirrorless cameras available for similar money. If it has to be a new one, the 4000D is probably the only option left.

    I'd suggest a used mirrorless camera. Even 7 or 8 year old cameras can be very decent. Think of a Fuji E1 - still very much a usable camera and you should be able to get one for about $200, enough to get a decent lens to it. Getting an analog full manual camera would also be an option but then - the risk is high that this could push away a 12yo.

    I've said it times and times again. I've met him and he is a dick. He wrote some good stuff but he is nowhere near as good as he thinks he is. 
     
    Even his own lawyers know he is difficult to work with:
     
     
    CD Project Red will probably settle with him because they don't want to burn any bridges but it will definitely not be the sum he is looking for. Nor should they be extorted for more.

    He sold that back in 1998 to an almost-unknown dev studio (CD Projekt was game distributor at that time). And he explicitly said he doesn't want interest in revenue just hard cash.
    Truth be told, he has a reputation of an asshole here in Poland, especially among his fanbase. The whole claim is constructed in a way to keep things below the radar.
    Here's my translation of parts of the claim:

    Pro tip: if your marriage is dependant on something like that, it's not worth sticking to it.

    Resolution: They did not even argue with me. And offered me a ASUS 1060 MINI 6GB. But that was $18 more, because ASUS has a price premium. Still managed to get him shave off a few $ worth cuz of the inconvenience. I have photos and official mail from ZOTAC themselves saying the condition of the item cannot be new. I shall proceed to share this on reddit maybe. With images and all.

    If you lower the settings, does the game still run at the same frame rate?

    I would not build a sistem with less than 8gb of ram today.
    I probably would not feel the urge to upgrade a system with 6 gb of ram either.
    At least not for the ram.
