Don't bend or poke or get the battery wet. They can catch fire and/or explode. Lithium batteries can be pretty darn nasty. Don't throw it in the trash. I've seen a few fires started that way. Take it outside and whack it with a hammer a couple times and see what it does? lol Did that with my old phone battery and it swelled up and caught fire. Video of a laptop battery being poked with a simple thumbtack. Laptop might be on it's last leg. They will quickly overheat from a bad fan, clogged up by dust or by being used on a bed which covers the fan ports. When they overheat, the solder under the CPU and GPU chips and GPU memory chips melt. It can be fixed by someone that has the equipment and knows how to re-ball the solder joints but it costs alot and usually doesn't last. See what she means about "acting weird" If it's crashing or artifacting or the graphics driver constantly crashing and reloading when loading stuff (screen goes black and screen flickers a couple times then comes back up) If it does that she's hurt bad. Looked on Ebay and there are a bunch of new motherboards for it but they are $265+ for the base model with the i7-8750H and GTX 1060 and the OEM battery is around $90 and the fans are $40 for the pair. Looks like that laptop still sells for $850-$1200 used so it is worth fixing if you are up to the challenge lol. You Might have to run system restore or try to contact Razer to get the OS to load with the new motherboard. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154342767302?hash=item23ef8bbac6:g:9uAAAOSwz0JgNVuT

RC30-0248 is the battery. Search Amazon or Ebay and try to get an OEM battery if at all possible. Like this one. https://www.ebay.com/itm/133525118593?_trkparms=ispr%3D1&hash=item1f16b79e81:g:hMwAAOSwHXlhl1zu&amdata=enc%3AAQAGAAACoPYe5NmHp%2B2JMhMi7yxGiTJkPrKr5t53CooMSQt2orsSHYXPhGXR5uguexJBeHwfgQ%2BDcW73deINM%2BBui6o5SYfuUCPm4k4N7jW4XGFfZC3S0gHMpvoXLn3k2JJHrn2sfCXAuGwkH%2BrqG9o7jdHfB57%2BziFK3ANuze3JZj%2FG00cf%2BH7U%2Fr984ar%2FlBcg5Lu7YKAzGUZd3Z2DSeDO8wJFMDvwbPPiZoGxqGwUIobJUCMPmBuktwqM4b0m0bK%2FknvzspSQoobr2Vw2KV7HZ3nBFQZo7zA43lZx8YgQ20fpw%2BOXBf07PcERm0KED5Q3D2UhZc6%2FfDcW9IYTA1W0FPL5zT6u8%2Bq%2FB243d%2FHOt4ZpwomzqGzvoKitj8V%2FPL4gz50WP58uVwq%2Bmi2fQYOhV9twBK%2F9W1Gfpjr1FomhwHwQCxclpcdXjcXVb2YGdK8%2B6ZSIXbHCMvA62MIaHz2spIhVLoK6SQDFmAOyv3fIVv74gyWueCJumXPorFNCmYOtCu96JtqpGPamu5qbjOY4g61n4NRdV4E19ABuomO%2Fk6OTtf2zw%2BvT7A2BRDQlF1%2BkbkmWcxidcC0JJ3PVc2OMzQ4FoS80ADgECiABfUpVr0fh6i0%2Fpq1pvRawXLR0%2Fo6pWI2IrATDV16re44u3c5M7YBfFg4CMCR941wOd8EPOGxLy2kObHKWJcgq3Hj6y293aoKwE4K7LKsXObXvUdUNNJnfJfQY%2Bhmr1E%2FAZOst84c13x64ZJyGe2P62Pj6gtW2NRYPgZExIZp6lAHcQ7aFSxJgPMLtQs8ZUpqZI9%2FvpCeVOy7YQUQxy4KFAm1m4jxta9h4OzvB%2B07kQVJDU04mjn9QtHzJEQww9Q2ao8gBcO1wLIxuf0GkRgz9dVQ7cLNbzJmE6A%3D%3D|clp%3A2334524|tkp%3ABFBM9orJ1OJf You will need a Torx T5 screwdriver bit and a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Decent tutorial on how to replace the battery. Not 100% sure with these newer laptops but, it should work if you just remove the battery and keep it plugged in. I have a laptop that still works fine without a battery in it. Just have to keep it plugged in. I have it hooked to my TV to stream movies and stuff since I don't have Cable TV.

Happy Birthday

I bought 4 big 1lb 10 oz bags of Berry Colossal Crunch for $12 the other day. Love that stuff. If ya have the munchies just eat it rite out of the bag.

Do you know what Motherboard you are running? Does it have a spot to plug a TPM module into it? Amazon has one for my motherboard but I'm to cheap to buy it and to damn lazy to reformat again. Win 10 works perfectly fine for the games that I play.

Happy Birthday.

Don't buy a used SSD off of ebay. There are a bunch on Ebay that were used for Mining Chia crypto. Chia was found to be extremely slow and unprofitable due to SSDs failing after only 80 days. https://www.windowscentral.com/watch-out-used-ssds-chia-crypto-miners

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday @PigDog GrrrrrrrrrrrOink!!!

Ya 1st snow I was like, SWEET we got snow that I can play in. Then the next time it drops like 1 inch and I'm like, Ya, you can fuck off now you cold wet, crap!!!

Damnit I want cookies. Anyone got any freshly baked Rum Raisin cookies?

Happy Birthday !fu @Tiger! lol

Yes the Votes do matter and are taken into consideration. Please Vote. It does help to weed out the maps that people do not like. Check out my attachment. This is in the Admin Portal under Map Index.

If your motherboard is more than a couple of years old, it will not have a TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) installed in it. I bought my AM4 motherboard back in July and it does not have a TPM module but it Does have a header on the board to plug one into. If I had one, I would have probably installed Win 11 a couple of months ago. But I'm to Cheap and Broke to spend the $35 + shipping for the TPM 2.0 module. Win 10 works fine and I'm not willing to install some 3rd party software or install a Win 11 Beta version and then upgrade to Win 11 to get it to install. If I'm going to install Win 11 it will be a Clean install. I've had way to many "Hiccups" from Upgrading OSes in the past. Win 7 to Win 8 was a Nightmare then came Win 8.1 then Win 8.1 to Win 10. Every single time I've eventually had to Format and do a clean install.

Might have something to do with the Hunga Tonga volcano eruption. It was a Very Violent eruption. The blast was heard as far away as Alaska and Air Pressure waves from the eruption were measured clear over in the UK over 10,000 miles away.

!FU @M!dg3t Dick motherfucker About damn time you get on the forums ya fucking idiot.

Happy Birthday @Giggles you Old Fart lol

That's COOL. Now I'm stuck watching this guy to lol. This is funny.

I have Never been a supporter of having to buy a game and expansions and then having to pay for subscriptions and having to buy In-game Currency or weapons or attachments and what not to actually play the damn thing and be competitive. It sucks how these Big companies buy up the smaller companies and completely fuck the shit up and quickly end up Doing away with every thing that the smaller companies did. Example BF1942 Desert Combat mod was a Mod made by the small Developer group named Trauma Studios. EA Digital Illusions CE bought them out and formed DICE New York. Very Shortly after the release of BF2, DICE New York was closed to "Save Money". In reality the ex Trauma Studios employees that worked there were not happy with EAs decision to not release the Mod Tools which would officially open BF2 up to the ever growing modding community. 1 of the Lead ex Trauma Studios Employees leaked a Partial Mod Tool kit for BF2 and was Quickly Fired. The BF series hasn't been the same since. BF1942 had Hundreds of Full Game Transforming mods back in the day. I probably had more than 50,000 hours in that game. The Modding community made a few mods for BF2 with the Partial Mod Kit that was leaked but they were severely limited. Desert Conflict and Project Reality were the 2 best mods for BF2. I was a Pre Alpha, Alpha and Beta tester for DCON Desert Conflict. Me and my 2 brothers did alot of "work" if you can call it work, in the release trailers for DCON. That was fun as heck. A couple of the DCON Devs got jobs with EA and have been working on the BF games since the OG BF Bad Company. Me and my 2 brothers did most of the flying in the trailer. I wrecked the AC-130 trying to get a road kill on one of my clan mates that was in a Tank near the end lol.

I live in a 1 1/2 story house that was built in 1845 on a 1 acre lot in a small town of 126 people. I'm at 1,964 feet and on the North Eastern slope of Allegheny mountain. Mountain top just above us is 2,700 feet. Lots of Bears, wild Turkey, White tail Deer and WAY to damn many Coyotes. You should hear the big bastards up on the mountain on a warm summer night. Sounds like a giant Dog orgy or something. These are not your typical Coyotes either. They are Hybrid Canadian/Great Lakes Eastern Wolf and Coyote. Often called a "coywolf". They can get as large as a medium sized German Sheppard. My neighbor hunts them for Pelts and he always has 30-40 pelts hanging in his garage at any given time. The bastards killed and drug off 1 of the neighbors dogs and a bunch of Cats and there are absolutely Zero wild rabbits or Squirrels and our Deer population gets smaller and smaller every year even though the State has issued "No Bag Limit" and No Restrictions. PA had a Bounty on Eastern Coyotes up until PA Governor Tom "fucking worthless" Wolf removed it late last year. Still it is absolutely beautiful where I live. I Love the mountains and the Mountain Life.

English-BOOB lol Make sure that your Mic is plugged in. Don't know why but it will crash every time without it being plugged in.

lol he flipped his tail up like a middle finger and said Nope, and trotted off.

!fu @Deckard and @LOCO you nade dropping butt munches. lol

Could be from improper cooler installation. Cooler master ML360R uses the Stock AM4 mounts. It will warp the board a bit if you over tighten the thumb screws. That little bit of warping will partly lift the heatsink on the VRM cooler and cause it to burn out. Symptoms of a damaged VRM include thermal shutdown, rebooting and a very unstable PC especially when loading any CPU intensive program. B450 Tomahawk doesn't have the best VRM config to begin with. Any overclocking will overheat the VRMs and running a Higher end Ryzen 9 5800x, 5900X or 5950X will cause the motherboard to quickly fail because of there higher voltage requirements. I read a bunch of reviews on the B450 boards and they run really hot especially if you run a 100-125W+ TDP chip in them. B450 comes with 4+2 phase setup where as the B550 comes with a 10+2+1 phase setup and the X570 comes with a 12+2 or a BEEFY 14+4 phase setup. However the X570 boards all have those small Garbage chipset fans on them that tend to fail after a couple years. I bought my X470 before the B550 boards came out because 3rd and 4th gen Ryzen wasn't officially supported with the B450 and I did Not want another board with one of those Garbage Chipset fans on it. I got my MSI X470 Gaming Plus MAX for $120 and it's very good for a Budget Mid-range motherboard that supports 3rd and 4th gen ryzen. 4th gen support came in a Bios update. I'm running a 3rd gen Ryzen 7 3700X 8 core 16 thread cpu. I really need to get a better cooler though. The stock AMD Wrath Prizm cooler works very well but it is loud as heck. I would recommend getting an MSI B550 motherboard if you can find one at a decent price. Motherboard are starting to go back up in price again.
