There are far worse things in history and life than bursting financial bubbles, but everyone must be aware and stay clear of large collapsing structures.

It forces you to say what you mean, which is not a bad thing.

In Best Prices for 11/29/24 I see something odd but useful to me. RTX 4060 Ti 16GB. Only card with VRAM shown in the table. You can find for any card of course. But my priority is ai generation, not top end gaming. Hammerbot says NV of course and everyone knows about VRAM. But these price...

As a geezer who will probably want one I am awed and astounded. The potential for increased self-knowledge of cardio for all humanity is phenomenal and inspiring. Can it be over-hyped? Maybe a bit, but not in long-term big picture. Thanks Ash.

My previous post in this thread was moved to Storage. Windows 10 error I got was re file system (ex-FAT vs NFTS). I have got around that, but now another error:. "Windows has encountered an invalid MediaID.bin file in the backup folder." Web shows this is common. Maybe it was related to FAT vs...

Thanks. I'm a Mike myself but maybe more a Knight than a Count. ;) This was all W10, me just using its prompts, unplanned. I didn't know what would happen when I replaced mobo (not hdd) but I had to use oem dvd to validate or "restore" the os. Was not complete new install but I was prompted to...

[Modertor edit: moving post from Windows 10 to Storage. More applicable category.] I created a one time backup of folders and files on an external drive which is exFAT . Now when I want Windows to restore to a different location on that drive, I get error, "Destination must be NTFS". The...

isn't that what scanners have been doing for 25 yrs.?

No info what the update was supposed to be doing. Seems rather basic. Perhaps no one knows. MS is looking for the root of the problem, but it's too dark! We have pics of that.

My understanding was the "data base" is the TH site. This is much smaller than all the so-called "information" everywhere in the web. Because of higher quality & other knowns, would make the bot's task easier. For now I would not complain bc a supposed answer is somewhere but not here. Also...

Have never used GPT for anything & maybe I'm easily impressed. :unsure: Not for black & white answer. Rather what to try first to minimize spend on new items & work. Simpler and maybe better than forum question. Only issue was link to other prices was dead and then original page could not be...

Thanks, but I don't know DMDE.* T7 comes pre-formated and works fine in W10. All operations OK and chkdsk no errors. Format is a FAT called ex-FAT, proprietary to Sams I believe. This seems to be all about W7. Are you saying DMDE will do diagnosis, non-destructive, presumably in the W7 machine...

:ROFLMAO: - Newegg asked the AI Genie "Can you design a PC Builder that pretends to serve the customer but actually maximizes our profits?" :sneaky:And the AI said "Of course".

I used only 10% of a T7 on a W10 pc for backup. But when I usb it in a W7-64 I'm asked to format, told the disk is dirty, and can see it is treated as a lettered hdd. The suggested fixes on web, starting with chkdsk, are not anything I would do to a working portable ssd. Samsung is either...

Does Windows see this as using same serial # OS on multiple pc/s? It might not be in fact, but certainly could be.
