  1. Thank you for all the well wishes everyone! As for the below: Thanks for sharing your experience in healthcare; it definitely gives me some food for thought. When it comes to my IT job, I totally get where you're coming from with the stress. For me, it's not just the deadlines where customers and managers have unrealistic expectations but also trying to keep up with the lightning-fast changes in technology. It feels like a never-ending race sometimes. Transitioning to healthcare might bring different challenges, but I'm hopeful it'll be a change for the better. Here's to hoping for a bit more balance and fulfilment in my career path. Thanks again for your insights and well encouragement. Best of luck with your new job!
  2. Thanks a bunch for the words of encouragement! You're spot on - if there's one thing I'm certain about, it's my passion for this new field. But hey, I won't lie, the thought of a pay decrease and diving into a new level of study makes me feel a bit stressed.
  3. Hey fellow gamers, I wanted to share a significant decision I've made in my life and seek some advice and support from this amazing community. After spending the last nine years in the world of IT, the past four of which have been increasingly unhappy and stressful, I've decided to pivot towards a healthcare career. And guess what? My ultimate goal is to become a Nurse! At 28 years old, I feel like now is the perfect time for this change. I've just finished my Forensic Psychology BSc, which has been a fascinating journey, but I've realized my passion lies in making a tangible difference in people's lives, especially during their times of need. The decision to leave behind a stable career in IT hasn't been easy. I've become increasingly short with people (I apologise if I have subjected any of you to that), and the stress has been taking its toll. But I believe it's time for a change, and I'm ready to take the leap. Right now, I'm in the midst of applying for roles as a healthcare assistant with the NHS. It's a nerve-wracking process, but I'm hopeful that this will be the first step towards a fulfilling career in healthcare. I know there are challenges ahead, especially considering the shift from IT to healthcare, but I'm determined to overcome them. And that's where I could use your help. If any of you have made similar career transitions or have experience working in healthcare, I'd love to hear your advice and insights. And if you have any tips for landing a role as a healthcare assistant with the NHS or just want to share words of encouragement, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your support means the world to me, and I'm grateful to have such an awesome community to turn to during this exciting but uncertain time. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and here's to new beginnings and chasing our dreams, no matter where they lead us! Cheers! Cookie
  4. Hi Guys, Going to a friends tomorrow for my first thanksgiving so I've done a bit of baking. So here's my English attempt at Pecan Pie and Pumpkin Pie. What's your go to dish?
  5. Handful of Photos from my short time in the forces, yes I was a REMF (Rear Echelon Mother Fucker) Final Day of Basic with the Lads, Drinking till I couldn't stand no more and Driving a god damn truck that rattles your bones apart! Thanks to all who served either at home or abroad
  6. Hi XI Family, We have a new edition to the clan, a cute little chihuahua puppy! We inquired about him yesterday morning and picked him up in the evening, it all happened so fast we didn't get a chance to settle on a name for the little guy. We've narrowed it down to Fitz, Boden or Sparky but some more input would be appreciated. So please throw in any name suggestions or cast a vote on the three above names **UPDATE** We've gone with Sparky as it has a lot of votes between here and family. He's started to come out of his shell, more specifically he's running round like a loon playing with everything so we think sparky works well for this little one.
  7. Brilliant! I was jokingly talking about getting one setup for the clan the other day while on FT2 @Sally / @T-Rat You pitching in?
  8. It's integrated GPU/CPU Ryzen 5 3500u
  9. Done all those steps and nothing
  10. Held the fan, I've worked on 100s of laptops without any issue. I've taken the base back off. It lights up the keyboard but the fan spins for a couple of seconds and slows and starts again. Can't get into bios either. Wondering if I should try flashing it?
  11. *****HELP***** I've just cleaned out my laptop, taken the base off, cleaned the fans etc. I had to take the battery out and ram but not I can't get it to boot to windows or bios. Tried hard battery reset and I've checked everything is connected. Any ideas?
