What laptop would give me an outside chance to play pubg, in the $500 price range. I understand even on the lowest settings it's a remote possibility at best. I have a 5 year old vivo that was just under $400 then, and it does play world of tanks fi…

I'm inclined to think I just got out of sync and when I finished the clone I swapped the sata's instead of unplugging the old Primary, and fired her up. I have a recovery drive,(USB), if I can figure how to get it to boot. I can't imagine the bios…

Yeah trying to remember about oem windows 10, it's keyed to mobo (Dell) think I use an iso to a flash drive then boot from flash, which I dont even see as a boot option. shit IDK man think Ive just gotten too old for this shit.

Well I screwed it up somehow. when I got done cloning with Acronis and shut the system down at the prompt, I disconnected the HDD from the motherboard, then moved the sata cable on the SSD to the previous HDD location and the started the computer. T…

yeah acronis is what I used , god I guess it's been five years ago, but I thought there might have been some advances etc since then. I'll wait to hear a few more opinions , but that will probably be my choice. TYVM

Im mostly thinking about the SSD at this point, the card is gone from actual physical damage, the cpu fan is broken off the heat sink. If the motherboard is ok that saves the OEM windows. But its neither here nor there at this point. Thanks guys.

That would be the Pick Axe Wielder, I found out about it all a few weeks after the fact.

I wouldn't say interesting, but I'll never forget it, so memorable, would be the better choice of words.

Ok Im pretty sure the video card is toast, looks like a pick axe penetrated the case and twisted the case and GPU back plate.

Yeap thats what I was thnking, and my 54 yr old legs can only handle 10 lbs water, 10lbs food, and maybe 10lbs more ... poncho, tarp, cordage, devices, so we are now taking 2 or 3 lbs. I'll sacrifice the game playing in a heartbeat to save a pound. …

Don't have a rescue disk I just have my windows disk, which if I need to I can re format windows. It's windows 7 and its keyed to that machine. I upgraded to windows 10 on line in January from that same license.

I have wondered about tablets but wasn't sure about how they would work for writing my reports, which wouldn't be much, but writing none the less. In truth I know little of their functionality or storage capacity. As to the rugged aspects of whiche…
