@Tail ... ... w... why!? Omg that is so very very fucked up! Who did this, and needs to be sent back to T1 training school!
@Idrake lmao, I DID IT. Or at least, that was how the OEM drive was partitioned when I got it.
@Tail this explains it. :) all good. Windows disk management cant "shift" around partitions but many 3rd party tools can. But erase everything and build one new simple volume that spans the whole disk is really all you need here.
Good job! :) isn't IT fun?
@Idrake I actually really love the work, even when, and perhaps especially, when it's a pain in the ass.
@Tail I love it so much I made a career out of it. There are few more satisfying things than deploying something complex and getting it setup and running smooth, or working through a major problem and finding a creative solution. You 'almost' need to be a masochist, but IT always brings something new!
@Idrake Will say though that after upgrading, 5 LEDs on my keyboard "died" somehow, and that for whatever reason is one of the most annoying things I've ever experienced. It's driving me nuts.
@Tail wow! Is it a Razer product?
@Idrake MSI GS65 Stealth Thin
@Idrake oh yeah, lol. The first thing I did when I got the thing was brilliantly lock myself out of the BIOS. I've done everything down to removing the CMOS battery and power cycling it and still nothing.🤔 As far as the LEDs go, I'm wondering if I shorted something. It's the O [ ] Backspace and F7 keys. Weird.
Honestly this is my first MSI product as I've found most of their components lacking, but I've been using this thing for years and it still shreds. I'd get another MSI laptop for sure.
