@barbudo2005 said in Logitech M650 L : How good is it?: @Zalex108 Said: They got a very good copy . What brand and model is the copy? IDK, But regarding some things, they usually copy or use a company to design and assembly, then just add a random TradeMark Name. https://winaero.com/your-favorite-xiaomi-smartphone-isnt-made-by-xiaomi-at-all-and-thats-why-they-are-so-cheap/

I have no idea if I replied to this thread already, but the first one I ever saw was an imac g3 in my elementary schools computer lab, the first pc I ever used was an hp pavilion desktop with windows xp home. Still worked in 2018 when i finally got rid of it. I have used older pcs since, windows 98/95 era machines etc.

@OysteinN, FWIW  consider purchasing an adaptor converter, USB 3 to either SATA and IDE, or just SATA; which will be dependent on interface of your old hard drives.

@paul1149 Hi, if Zorin Linux run fine from an USB stick the hardware seems to be OK, except the hard driver which is not in use at all or minimal compare to a installed system. As you mentioned, swap the hard drive. Switching to a SSD is always a good idea anyway, this felt like a new laptop when I first did this many years ago.

@Catweazle Yeah, I know GodMode for a long time but would never thought about looking into for network reset. Will check. [image: 1741643303401-d7713af9-71bd-436b-ae27-4b73ed0d66d9-image.png] EDIT: Cant find anything related to network reset. I would use ipconfig and netsh for this, hm.

Thank you all for your help and suggestions, friends. I finally bought the laptop I mentioned last: Lenovo LOQ 15ARP9 R5 7235HS 24GB DDR5 RTX 3050 6GB GDDR6 512GB M.2 SSD 15.6" FHD 144Hz G-SYNC FreeDos Gaming Notebook I hope I will be happy with this laptop. I am currently preparing an ubuntu usb. I hope there won't be any problems with the installation and I can get the laptop thing done. [image: anime-crazy.gif]

I figured out how to fix the problem. Plug in the headphones to charge Press the + and - buttons simultaneously to perform a factory reset Unplug and plug in again if they need recharging It would be nice to know why they break in the first place, but at least I now know how to fix the issue.

@greybeard You're welcome.

@nomadic Sorry I did not see this forum topic until after your purchase to respond prior. I have an MSI Gaming Laptop that I bought in 2013 (GT60 20D) that I am still using. It is very old now, but still runs exceptionally well and can still play most if not all modern games if graphics turned down some. It has been a very good machine and it now lives in my workshop when I need to look something up that I am working on or listen to music when I am in there. The power brick is huge as you mention and the fans are a little loud when the graphics card is running hard. The keyboard is a little messed up now as it has had a lot of use and the only "major" problem I have had is that the bios has started to flake on it, so I try to not reboot it if not necessary. I would recommend turning off any MSI splash screen on boot if there is one, because I can not see when I have issues and because of bios issue I mentioned, I can not get it to boot to the bios screen to edit it now. If your new machine is anything like mine I think you will enjoy for a long time!

@teots Why do you need to ground the computer ?

@mikeyb2001 on some boards happens in rare cases with bluetooth receiver on USB3 ports. Try to put the receiver into a USB2 post.

I used Rufus to create a build USB. It has a setting to bypass the the TPM requirement. also to create the local account, and bypass all those silly installation questions

@Linu74 Yep. Checked through all that. It is in and seated properly. I will say I am not a fan of the USB C power connection though. Espcially with the switch attached. Two points of mediocre connections in my view.
