    Anyone with experience w/ Intel i225/i226 network issues?

    I just purchased an MSI z790i board what has the Intel i226-v onboard nic and I'm already having issues with it disconnecting. I know they've had these problems over the last few years and I was hoping they were resolved by now but evidently not. I've done some extensive research and tried the...

    MSI Core Liquid 360r cooler

    I had purchased an MSI Core Liquid 360r cooler from Amazon on 2-28-2021 which came with a 3 yr warranty. I just started having issues with it overheating and the Ryzen 9 3900xt was running at 95c. I found they had a recall on these units and chatted with them this morning but their end date was...

    Valvoline is offering a buy One get One 50% off motor oil with no promo code needed, just add the items into your cart.... only motor oil, everything else is excluded.

    Counterfeit Mr. Funnel

    Purchased a funnel with filter from Amazon but was sent the incorrect item, the box had the correct part number but the measurements are that of the next smaller size and it wasn't a Mr. Funnel either, the seller even reused the main picture, the one received didn't even have the fancy red label...

    My buddy and I changed the brake fluid on my '13 Kawasaki Ninja 650, I had been meaning to do it but he bought the air operated bleeder tool from Harbor Freight awhile back and did his Scout with it. I don't have a stand for my bike and has the muffler underneath so they won't really work...

    https://www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/t-mobile-rumored-to-be-buying-ryan-reynolds-mint-mobile/ I hope it doesn't go through, I had a small local provider years ago who got purchased by a local telecom company who had contracts with Sprint so everyone was being forced over in the merge, I had friends...

    Thinking of switching auto insurance companies

    I was thinking about switching from Progressive to State Farm but right now it doesn't seem all that it's cracked up to be. The quote I received on the vehicles is still higher than Progressive this time but the motorcycle they significantly reduced it around 44.5% less so it's almost 1/2 the...

    CNC milling machine - failed hard drive

    I'm actually quite surprised that it has lasted as long that it has but the bad thing is we've been talking about backing it up and creating an image of it but very little down time and also didn't want me to mess with it, old school thought is if it's up and running let it be.... yeah well now...

    Got a chance to test ride a few Triumph's

    Over the weekend a friend & I went over to Romney, WV where they were offering demo rides on Triumph motorcycles. I wished they would've had more of a selection, I was told that the market over there is more in the Adventure style bikes, I believe they had a couple of Tiger 1200's & Scrambler...

    What is a good VPN to use on mobile?

    A few months ago I changed carriers from Google Fi over to Mint but they don't give you a VPN whereas Google included it.

    99 Civic won't start, scanner cannot establish connection

    I have a 99 Civic that won't start, it cranks over fine but when you turn the key to the run position the fuel pump doesn't run. I found that when you turn the key to run that the check engine light doesn't turn off after a few seconds which should mean there is a code stored but my scan tool...

    It pays to check your credit and dispute when needed

    I've been trying to work with Experian on an issue from a long time ago that's been haunting my credit but it's finally been resolved now. They kept showing a late payment on my report but when you'd click the link it didn't show you which account that it was linked too but also where it shows...

    Kawasaki fa210d new to me

    Yesterday I just picked up a Kawasaki fa210d horizontal engine that seems to run really good but the throttle is stuck and wants to run at full speed. I can't seem to find the whole model number on this engine to know exactly which one this is. It was originally mounted to a pressure washer but...

    Open package of oil delivered

    I had ordered some oil from Walmart and packaging they had used is totally unacceptable, the box used is just single wall cardboard and only one piece of tape across the top and bottom, when I had taken this picture I didn't realize the box was upside down because that is what failed, basically...

    97 Honda Civic won't crank

    I went to fill up the car before the 4th and when I went to leave the station it wouldn't start so I asked the guy inside if he'd help me get it rolling so I could get it started that way which it did. The first thing I tried is charging the battery and also tried jump starting it from another...

    Deutz-Allis 613H installed rebuilt carb.

    Ok I just got done installing a carburetor that I sent off to have it rebuilt. I had it serviced 2 yrs ago at a Simplicity/Ferris dealer and when I picked it up they rebuilt it but couldn't understand why it was running rough and was surging at idle. I don't know why they even worked on that as...
