Next debacle. In BIOS IO ports Display is set to PCIe and internal graphics to : enabled. When I connect monitor to VGA, I get the single beep then BIOS logo for ~20 seconds then Windows log in screen. Connected to the MB HDMI I get the single beep, then black screen for ~20 seconds and next Windows login screen. If I set internal graphics to AUTO, i get the single beep, then no signal on my screen. Connected to the graphics card, everything normal. Any setting I should change?

Only 5 minutes after my call the order got a FAKE tracking number added, similar as with the previous order. LEX tracking page they are not aware of the tracking number. Item comes from Laz Mall seller, previous order that never got shipped was also from a Laz Mall, so much for credibility of those sellers.

I don't know what is going on with lazada, but surely it stinks. My previous placed on November 1 and estimated delivery November 11. The order get the status packed and a tracking number, which didn't exist by the way, and stays as packed "will be handed over to logistics partner" for the following 3 days. Call lazada, and sure it is on the way according to the lying idiots. Seller had already said that it was shipped on November 2 but lazada had lost it, which was another lie of course, as I had checked the tracking number on the Cainiao website, and was unknown to them. Parcel remained status packed until November 13, when it got cancelled, and of course shown in the listing as if the customer requested the cancellation. On November 12 I placed an order for another item, with delivery date November 16. Item is marked as packed since November 13 with no tracking number provided. Until yesterday it would still show 16 November as estimated delivery date in the order status, but I just checked and now the date has been removed. Called lazada and of course the same BS been told, please wait, seller is packing the item. For 3 days? Right yeah. I think I'm not gonna waste more time with Lazada

Is that your way of self-criticism as a pensioner Al?
-
Delivery drivers don't know what is in the parcel, or even who sent it, and it is you who decide COD on the order, not the logistics company Yes they may be impatient as they may have a huge workload every day. Everything that is not as expected can be returned and refunded. With Lazada you have 7 or 14 days, depending on which shop you bought from, to start the return request. With Shopee it is 3 or 7 days, but you can extend it on the webpage or in the app. I have returned quite some stuff lately, as I agree there are a lot of scammer sellers, and have never been refused a refund. Before covid I would have to return something now and then, the last year it's more like at least 50% is not as described or faulty

Maybe something got lost in translation, but you posted, long lengths no soldered joint, had it fitted as part of the job. It was 2500 baht for a 25-meter run So my question was, how do you get 25 meters of gutter, in 3 meter lengths, leak free without soldering?

Please confirm that aren't ice cubes in that glass that make the upper half look less dark than the bottom half.

You posted some time ago that you like the fish and chips at cheap charlies. Must be because it is within your retiree budget, because the fish used in that dish has certainly never been in an ocean, so it can't be because you are quality driven
-
You don't like to spend more than 50 baht on a dish, so not sure why you're here, bored? maybe lonely?
-
Is this thread only allowed for Brits? I wonder why a cheap charlie like you is still on this thread
-
I'm not a Brit, so when I fancy a half decent lunch or dinner, English food is the last thing that comes up in my mind.
-
What holds you back then to go try it out on the other 6 days of the week?
-
Depends how good it is, try it and report back, or maybe just hot air from you Well, you surely haven't based your criticism on the quality, as you said you haven't been

Can't be done after install. HCi is hydrochloric acid, you will see they also use it before they weld for the same reason. Epoxy primer obviously not available in spray cans since it is 2 component, the rustoleum i had prepared in 3 gallon buckets at boonthavorn. Spray cans would cost an arm and a leg. You could try to cover the welds with bitumen tape. The main reason why these welds crack is because of the extraction and contraction of the material due to large temperature differences. uPVC or aluminium are much less subjected to that
-
So you continue your drivel by posting a Youtube from a gutter rolling machine somewhere in a FACTORY IN CHINA and then claim, without any evidence of course, that it must be available in mobile version in Thaialnd. Gonna put you on ignore as I'm tired of reading your unrelated drivel posted only to polish your ego
-
So you do admit now that you were deflecting on purpose, and ridiculing me by telling lies. I responded to someone who claimed he got "good" steel gutters at 100 baht/meter that weren't welded over a length of 25 meters. I have never denied that roll formed gutters don't exist, I have even posted that I am aware they are available in Thailand, but not in steel and not at 100 baht/meter You have a link that they do them in steel, and at 100 baht/meter as that was what the poster to whom I replied claimed to have got?
-
Why you keep posting drivel? The poster to whom I replied said he paid 100 baht/meter for his gutters. What are the chances they are roll formed? Which old house archives, I don't see a link to the archives, and are you talking about Thailand? Edit : Oh I see now the link to the drivel you continue spouting. You realize this is a Thailand forum and Kickstart is in Thailand? Edit 2 : I see you took advantage of my typing error where I typed "were aren't in the US", where it should have been "we aren't in the US". Get a life please

Must have been your ego that was too heavy to handle for Sharky
-
I had them installed when I built my house 12 years ago. They need to be treated with HCi to remove all the oil, then an epoxy primer from TOA, and a top coat from rust-oleum. No rust on the gutters itself yet, but many leaks where they were welded
-
I have a friend who had SS ones installed about 5 years ago. They were 1000 bht/meter at that time
-
You're talking about aluminium gutters, not steel gutters, and at 100 baht a meter it will definitely not be aluminium ones. And by the way were aren't in the US. Aluminium ones are available in Thailand, I have heard, but not cheap and only few companies who provide that service
-
100 baht a meter and good quality steel certainly don't belong in the same sentence. But what I'm more interested in is how did they connect the lengths leak free without soldering, because 25 meter lengths don't exist I think.
-
Then maybe consider cleaning your glasses. I have had 4 bottles of Dunkel so far and they have a very nice light brown head when pouring in a glass, about the same size of head you get from a western dark beer.

The licence for Windows 7 I obtained through a BIOS upgrade. I created a Microsoft account much later. It also says linked to my microsoft account, obviously the previous owner had a different account. About 6 months ago I bought a second hand Fujitsu Arrows with a legit Windows 10, and my MS account is installed on that laptop, but not associated with the validation since it came with a validated Windows.
