    He probably won't have an issue just setting it down but you need very little static to actually do damage. The traces on a PCB aren't large and cutting through one isn't difficult. It's not as rare as you think it just doesn't usually bisect anything completely. It might almost bisect it and not show issue until months or years later when it heats up an fails due to too much current going through too small a wire. Here are some more info (and cool pictures!) https://nepp.nasa.gov/index.cfm/6095 http://www.aecouncil.com/Papers/aec4.pdf http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/today-is-national-static-electricity-day.454359434/

    No, you underestimate how easy static electricity damage can be done to a circuit board. Yes, he might be fine with it being fans down but plastic can build up a static charge and do damage. https://www.rs-online.com/designspark/what-is-esd-and-what-damages-can-it-cause

    You might have it in "internal GPU" mode where it isn't correctly switching to the discrete GPU. I'm not super familiar with it but I know some of our laptops at work have the same issue and there's an application ("Optimus" or something?) that you can run another application from to force it to use the discrete GPU. Otherwise, I'm not sure. Try to Vegas support? Good luck
  4. sanosuke001
    The hardware requirements of VEGAS 15 state the following I'd say make sure your driver is up to date (the 570 seems like it should be better than a 4xx Series card...), make sure CUDA isn't disabled on your card in the driver (not sure how as I have an AMD card and am not familiar with GeForce drivers), and I'm assuming that card has >512MB RAM. But, since it still works but just takes 10x longer, I'd say it's a driver or CUDA issue. I'd start there. Hope it helps.

    Go to the Intel website and see if they have drivers available for your GPU/CPU. Then, go to Microsoft's site and search for DirectX 11 and/or 12 Runtime installers.
  6. sanosuke001
    Don't games automatically install direct x runtimes for you? The GPU saying DX 12 support doesn't mean it fully supports every feature or previous revisions. Updating your drivers and making sure the runtimes are all up to date is at least worth a shot.
  7. sanosuke001
    Buy a GPU. You have an integrated Intel GPU that doesn't support the feature your game requires. If you want to play that game you need to buy a GPU that supports your game.

    Wow, that does seem like a pretty good review. I'll check them out. Thanks, guys!

    TunnelBear (aka McAfee): Due to our new acquisition, all subscriptions have been locked for your safety. Please call us (toll paid by caller) to make any future modifications to your service! Note: service phone number availability is down for maintenance and no estimate can be made for when it will be operational. Please check back regularly! That's how I see it going, anyway

    Hopefully that satisfies the benevolent dragon of crunch (sorry, @Crunchy Dragon I'm a bit new around here; I did a quick search but didn't see the sticky cause I'm dumb)

    I don't know; I've never used one before but was thinking about signing up after hearing LTT talk about it with good reviews. Now, not so sure what to try
  13. sanosuke001
    I know LTT has them as a sponsor all the time; I wonder how this'll change their service. They state that they don't plan on killing the service, however, so maybe this will replace McAfee's current VPN offering? I'm not a huge fan of McAfee and haven't used TunnelBear before so I can't comment on their current service but from Luke and Linus talking about it on the WAN show they seem to think it's decent. However, this doesn't seem like a good thing for people who actually care about their privacy; McAfee isn't known for its customer support and consumer focus. I was thinking about using TunnelBear before this but now, I think I'm going to pass. https://venturebeat.com/2018/03/08/mcafee-acquires-vpn-company-tunnelbear/ EDIT: added some summary to stick with the news posting guidelines; sorry @Crunchy Dragon

    It might; depending on what ports your were using previously the new port might be more "perferred" e.g. if you had a SATA HDD/SSD plugged into SATA port 5 and then plugged something new into SATA port 1 it might switch it to port 1 to boot from. When you change around your hardware setup (especially with drives) it's always a good idea to check your boot order settings.
  15. sanosuke001
    Just set the proper boot device in the BIOS and it won't try to boot from the wrong drive. Then, format away!
