So an upgrade to Win 10 will cost XP users the price of a license, if their machine is capable of running it. Windows 10 requirements are:
- Processor: 1GHz CPU or faster
- RAM: 1GB (32-bit) or 2GB (64-bit)
- Disk space: 16GB (32-bit) or 20GB (64-bit)
- Graphics: DirectX 9-capable video card with WDDM driver
It also requires users to be in (at least) 2015.
Every time I see Luigi's avatar I already believe the post is very funny. One of these days, I'm going to post inappropriately.
Yeah it is, IMNSFHO. And as it's also baldrick's, I advise you to stick with that opinion. But I prolly will give into temptation and install the fucker before the one year free window expires. And that will prolly be the wrong decision, which is generally the case when succumbing to temptation.Originally Posted by terry57
So, This week my good old HP laptop shit it's self.
I cannot complain because I have had a blinder of a 7 year run with no issues what so ever. It's been a beauty.
I'm on a run at the moment, both of my old Putors spitting the Dummy in 2 weeks.
Any way, I take my Pavillion HP down to my Guru at Fortune Town and he checks it out.
Mother board problem, he can fix it for 3500 Baht but advises me not to bother as it's old.
Nope, fuk that, I'm gona let him fix it. 3500 baht is nothing.
In Perth the thieving bastards charge 100 buks an hour for their work.
Love Thailand, can get shit done.
If you decide not to fix your second laptop, get your "guru" to take the hard drive out of it.
Then just put it in an external case and at least you've salvaged a hard drive out of it.
They're cheap as chips too

I'm dealing with this Thai guy who studied computer science in America then came back to Thailand. Speaks perfect English.
He is a freaking legend, he gives it to me straight up, He told me he could take out the Hard drive and down load all my shit onto an External if I want.
Filled me in regards repairing my mother board then another section could fail soon after.
Na, I'll pay him his 3500 and take it from there. If it fails again I'll ditch it. Had more than my money's worth out of that fuker.
Right in the middle of doing my Tax when it shit it's self and all that is on there plus a few pics I'd like to get off.
Lucky I back up all my pics onto an external, both computers had a life time of pics on them.
Many thousands in fact.
You didnt read my posts did you ?

ITS A CASE THAT TURNS YOUR INNER HARD DRIVE INTO AN EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE FOR NEXT TO FUCK ALL. YA GREAT GALLAH
Sorry to shout

Yes,
I'm sure he told me exactly what you have said but I'm a fooking retard concerning this computer shit.
Read between the lines for fook sake Dill.
That's why I pay the guru innit.
In Laymans terms terry, I dropped my laptop, Acer wanted more than the PC was worth to fix it.
The motherboard was fucked like yours, the hard disk wasn't, so the guy who was trying to fix it gave me the hard drive and I left the laptop with him.
Then I bought this case
Inside that case is my laptops hard drive plugged in
No downloading to do whatsoever, it just plugs into the inside of the case. I would open it up to show you but I cant find my screwdriver, which tightened the 8 screws on the sides after i put it in there
Thats it, it just plugs into the inside of that then you plug that into your PC or TV or aircon unit
It's easier than putting a hose on a hydrant

Brilliant info mate, thanks very much.
I still recon I'll throw the 3500 baht though, It might play on or it might die soon after.
If it dies again I'll go your way.
Thanks.
If he's telling you it's not worth it, you should probaly listen and take the hard drive, but saying that what can you get for 3,500 baht ?
mine was an Acer just out of warranty and Acer wanted 18,000 baht to fix it. I then took it to a local with one arm who sold ink cartridges and he said it was fukked. Now i think of it, maybe I should have took it to Fortune

The guy I am dealing with is pure gold.
I stay with him because he is quite nasty towards myself and my retardness in the Computer field.
A stand offish little bastard but straight up and no fucking around with his advice.
I respect his knowledge and lack of cock sucking.
I'll put you onto him Dill if you want.
You had me at little bastard
^
The first time I met him I thought he was going to spit at me.
He won me over straight away,
I thought, Hey, I like this fuker, he's dead nasty.
Anyway, he has warmed to me now.
I'm no proctologyst Terry, but if you want I can have a damn good look at it for you
That's certainly why you put the spaces there.Originally Posted by terry57
