Some players just lack basic common sense, honestly.

Luke "the saboteur" Stepančić just had to finish what he started back in the first half, so he decided to go for his third penalty just two minutes before the buzzer, leaving us sitting at -1.

Walter Hughes53 said:It shouldn't have been a penalty at all.

Yeah, except there’s this new rule now where if anyone interferes with a clear scoring chance, it's a penalty. They were literally pulling Mus on his jersey right as he was shooting, so the call was legit.

The real kicker is that if Mus had actually scored, it would've been over. But even he missed. We basically blew two match points in a matter of seconds.

And we couldn't even find the back of the net in those last five minutes of regulation... mostly because Stepančić was basically just standing there doing nothing.

Before the game even kicks off, I’m telling you, this Stepancic guy has been making terrible calls all season. It’s a joke. He calls two offensive fouls when we have a man advantage and an open winger sitting there doing nothing. Bad passes, nobody tracking back on defense, then he hands them a penalty and a power play on a silver platter. It’s impossible to play like this. You can't win with zero talent behind the whistle like that.

The only guy I’m giving a pass to is Horvat. Clearly the only one with the guts to actually step up.

Gotta be fair and say Duvnjak played out of his mind on defense, even if he was useless on offense. He worked himself to death, unlike some of those lazy bums out there.

Luke " saboteur" Stepancic is the sole reason we’re taking these Ls. Honestly, I can't tell if he's just clueless or something else, but what he's doing makes zero sense. I'd much rather see Metlicic step in; he'd be a massive upgrade, 100%

Kyle Torres60 said:No matter how much we all trash talk Kopljar while he's on the court—the guy is elite at kicking the ball out to the wings and his defense is solid. Honestly, you don't even need to sub him out when he's locking people up.

Facts. If Kopljar was actually in the lineup today, we wouldn't be losing by five.

wiredtrucker20 said:But our ridiculous attacks with the 7th man?
It’s just adding ten seconds for nothing. The player runs out, then the goalie comes back in. We shoot or try to draw a foul. Then the goalie goes back out and the player goes back in. That seventh man provides zero value; he’s just standing there waiting to be called back in while nobody else even accounts for him on the court. Then we end up with some half-baked shot that their keeper saves easily, and we get hit on the counter by an unset defense against a goalie who just barely got his hands ready.

Even the Virgin Mary would be facepalming at that point.

Total absurdity... Mamić and Gojun are the only ones getting a passing grade.

The only one I can forgive for everything is Horvat. Obviously, he was the only one with the guts to actually take the shot.

oh my god
did you just call my name
Your lips whispered mine
I’m leaving my boat behind for good
From here on out I’m going
Wherever you lead me...

Off the top of my head.
It would kill in Times Square. It’d create this crazy positive vibe.

The editorial staff at Imbex would bleed from their ears🤣🤣

Larry Ortiz5 said:So what motherboard are we talking about here? You skipped that part. It’s totally possible that Windows 7 just doesn't recognize the drive at all, so you might have to go through the headache of injecting hard drive drivers into the installation media. Also, did you check your BIOS settings to make sure it's set to Legacy instead of UEFI? And seriously, just try installing Windows 10. At least then you'll know if the install actually works or not.

I tried both in the BIOS—it has Legacy + UEFI and just UEFI options. I even tried forcing the USB to run on just UEFI. It gets me into the installer fine, but once it hits that specific part, it just hangs.

The board is an MSI H110M PRO-D (S1151, DDR4, USB3.1, SATA III, DVI, Audio, LAN) mATX Retail

Carl Morris34 said:Give this a shot: Rufus

I used that once to get Windows 7 running because my DVD drive was acting up, and it was smooth sailing. Once you grab the tool, it walks you through everything. Just follow the steps. It’s pretty straightforward.

Did you already have an OS on that machine, or were you starting from scratch?

Larry Ortiz5 said:First off, you didn't say which version of Windows you're trying to install. You didn't mention what software you're using to burn the ISO (if it's a Windows ISO), or even what your PC specs are. And when the installation throws those driver errors at you, does it actually specify which ones are missing? Go check the motherboard manufacturer's site first to see what they actually support and what drivers are available. When I'm burning an ISO to a USB, I just use Rufus. It's easily the simplest and best tool for the job.

Windows 7 Ultimate

I use Rufus to make my bootable USBs.

It doesn't list them specifically, but it's the ones needed to recognize the USB—basically some SATA drivers.

So, I just picked up a new rig. No CD/DVD drive, and there isn't even an internal header to hook up the old optical drive I have lying around...

I flashed a USB and tried running the install via USB about a million times. The PC sees it, starts the Windows installation, and then suddenly claims it's missing drivers. It’s like Windows just refuses to recognize the USB itself. Pretty hilarious considering my mouse and keyboard work perfectly fine, and they're both USB too.

Now I'm stuck. My external hard drive is at my brother's place and he won't be here until tomorrow, but even then, I have no clue how I'd install from it. He's got a massive amount of files on there, and if I have to wipe everything to make it work, I don't know if that's even feasible...

What should I do here? What options am I actually left with... and if I go the external hard drive route, what's the play?

Maybe via phone, but I'd have to root the thing, and I really don't feel like risking that right now... or maybe I could install Ubuntu, Linux, and then try to run Windows through that?

I even gave Windows XP a shot, but the machine just won't boot into it. Even when I select it directly in the BIOS, I just get a black screen with that little blinking underscore, and nothing happens no matter what I press.

I've got an HP laptop that's about 4.5 years old now. I’m looking to swap out the keyboard and the screen, just like the title says, somewhere in Indianapolis.

If anyone knows a spot where I can get this done without getting ripped off—or if you actually deal with this kind of stuff yourself—I’d really appreciate the lead.

Budgeting for this, I figured it would top out at around $333. I actually already have a quote for that amount, but I'm wondering if there's any way to haggle it down to 😁
