Wow, my laptop situation is confusing. I forgot it plugged in for a few days, and it somehow charged to 47%, and works without being plugged in. It will charge under very specific cases from what I see. I need to turn it off, and boot it off the charger for it to charge, and to unplug and work with battery, leave it plugged in, turn off, and then unplug. Hmm, an inconvenience, yes, but is it better than nothing, hell yeah!
 
So my Birthday was Friday and aside from the motherboard I got some other stuff!

A lot of tools I didn't have now that I moved out of my house back in MD. This was VERY needed. Stuff like locking pliers, and obscure tools.
I also got a new boost gauge for my car that I will be installing tomorrow.
My GF got me 2 Skagen watches and a watch box with my initials etched in the glass.
 
The latest B85 I'm testing would not run benchmarks in PCMark8. The initial browser window it opens would just immediately close, and the test died. Reloading PCMark8 didn't help. I finally completely re-installed Windows on it, and it's working. Bizarre, but it wasted much of my available weekend testing time.
I'm leaning toward a 21x9 monitor as my next upgrade. It will be nice when working with multiple documents.
 
Thank you.
I having problem uploading a picture from Google drive. Is this a proper way to do it?

You would need a direct link to an image and the image would have to be public. With the current setup we each have to A. have a google account and B request permission(you would get spammed with requests).

Once you have a direct public link you can use [ img ] and [ / img ] (I added spaces to avoid the forum eating the tags) tags to make the image show up in here.

so this

Code:
[IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/1ox65g.jpg[/IMG]

Makes this.

If google does not offer that you can use imgur, tinypic, photobecket, ect as hosts as well.

Also you may want to post Images in the following thread.

Thank you Nekemaster. I think I learned something today. I just need to share those pics with somebody. So proud of myself. This is my first build PC and it is working.
 


Well I replaced both with factory new oem components, so its within the laptop power delivery I believe.
 


What do you want to use it for? That's a pretty good deal but there's no graphics card, just Intel HD video. Keep that in mind if you want to play any games.
 


That's a pretty good deal for that system. I would ask the seller to verify the condition of the item before you buy but otherwise I'd go for it.
 


Shouldn't it come with a USB plug? Mine came with a USB adapter.

On another note, I just downloaded Fury Road from iTunes. I know what I'm watching tonight! :lol:
