  1. Once I turn off Fast Reboot in Control Panel then there are no more problems with laptop starting AND I can access the BIOS again.
  2. Why does Windows even have fast startup enabled as recommended in control panel? If you power off then try to power on the PC will never start with fast startup enabled on my laptop, cannot even access BIOS. Only after hours of trying I got the PC to start again, and disabling fast startup and its been fine since. Seriously Microsoft, what the heck is this feature?
  3. I thought it was the oldest profession.
  4. Wifey always gets this for our coffees..
  5. What about the restore from back up trick?
  6. This is the Cummunity Pub forum of Aseannow and even this is overly moderated. Hence Thaivisa.com had more users I think.
  7. I think the frost two lines didn't need question marks to be grammatically correct.
  8. Yes. Different rates depending on land lines or mobile phones, check rates on their site. Cheaper than phone to phone usually.
  9. Yes it's easy once you've done it and there is no need to pay the annual ATM card fee as there is no need for a card. You do need internet access on your phone during visit to ATM tho.
  10. I changed wifi hotspot and Google YouTube went thro the two step verification, sent the 6 numbers to my SIM, then after I input that it wasn't enough, it asked 'to really check who I am' by sending a second code to a second SIM! This repeated every time I changed my wifi hotspot. So Google needed TWO sims because I had registered different SIM numbers on YouTube and Google. Fixed that annoyance by going to one SIM only on the profile of each account. but still cannot get around the verification each time I change wifi hotspot using same device.
  11. These external devices just plug into the input socket on the TV like an HDMI port?
  12. You probably cannot go wrong then as stocks always go higher in the long run. I would only invest in indexes or solid companies not loosing money in today's high interest rates. P/Es today are below the average so dollar cost averaging in a little each period usually works with a low risk to reward ratio. Staying in cash isn't wise as it looses value daily with inflation.
  13. I wasn't aware of this. So a foreign parent happily married to a Thai can deposit 400000 on day of extension based on supporting their Thai child and let the balance drop to zero after approval and repeat same next extension? So less money needed kept in bank than marriage method.
  14. Blimey thats nearly a grand for the two required doses plus return travel costs as it's not available in Thailand. The health companies really have us over a barrel on this.
  15. You can delete what you no longer need or copy the said files to another drive. Without further info there is little more feedback one can offer!
  16. Why does it beat you? Some people have a need for apps that are only available on a Windows platform so it makes more sense to use Windows than a Windows emulator ontop of another o/s.
  17. If it was me I wouldn't travel all the way back to Bangkok for the sake of bureaucracy, I would do a new TM30 and TM47 at the current place I am staying up country. But each to their own.
  18. Been using Everything for years. Nothing comes close.
  19. I was flat out refused my pink ID card at DHL Emporium - only passport copy allowed when trying to mail a letter. I was also quoted a price just to send a letter of nearly 2700THB or 3 times what was quoted online DHL site. I asked the staff about the large mark up when she had time to get off the phone and she tersely recommended I just do it online and wasn't budging on the price. I went back home did the online shipment and a polite DHL driver turned up a few hours later as scheduled for just over 900THB all in and never asked to look at ID or letter contents. I will likely never set foot in a DHL office again. BTW, DHL places on Google Maps today no longer exist. I tried two in space of 10 minutes around Asoke area that are no loner there. Can anyone explain logic behind huge price difference between DHL online and going in person?
  20. Surely a less sensitive subject title could have been given to this thread?
  21. People buy condos but not in a dead end neighborhoods full of crack head kateoys as in the op. It's common sense.
  22. Normally on the same visit you get passport back.
  23. Try and fly in during a premier league football match. When I came in last weekend at BKK, the IO was just tuning his personal tablet in to watch a match live whilst briefly checking my pp. and stamping me in.
