Can somebody help please ? My laptop has been playing up pretty badly over the last couple of day`s and I think I need to download windows 10 from scratch. Not sure if my lappy got infected somewhere, but it`s taken me 2 days to get this far ( Online )
Problem is I can`t seem to find a link for the download, so I am hoping one of you could send it to me.

TIA

My old lappy never seemed right after i upgraded to Win 10.In the end it just gave up and it was only 3 years old.
(The cursor disappeared and there is very little you can do without one.Probably is a cure,but i decided to move on.)

The new one with factory installed Win 10 seems fine and is not giving me any problems.

No help to you i'm afraid tho' Terry.
How old is your lappy?

Thanks Trish & George :) I think i have narrowed the problem down to google chrome. I am writing this now using Bing, It`s when I first thought of trying a different browser that I noticed most things are working right, just not chrome.

I have now uninstalled it and for the time being continue using this browser, but I do miss it as I`m so used to it. I think I`ll just have a go at reinstalling it and see what happens :)

Sorry George, I didn`t answer your question. My lappy is showing 2014, so 2 or 3 years old. I`ve just reinstalled chrome but when I try using it everything is freezing up, so that is definitely the culprit. I may try and do a fresh download using the link you sent me. thanks again :)

I have Chrome installed, but only use it if IE is acting up! :)
Always possible it's something to do with a recent W10 update not playing nicely with Chrome - do a search to see if anything comes up.

Happy post crimbo everyone in hope you're all well.

Here's an all over the place small catch up

I've been puffing away. I've changed to a part time direct lung vaper. Enjoying the atlantis evo tanks and more over the tfv8. I need an affordable very high power mod if anyone has suggestions. My boxer was taken down from 150 To 120w by fjrmware and the tfv8 needs more than 120 for some coils. I've tried a bunch of
Coils which work with the evo and unfortunately the triton Clapton coils are the best but wickif hole is too high. Has anyone tried ceramic coils compatible with the triton or evo ? Any other tanks with disposable
Coils besides what I've mentioned that are currently considered amazing ? At first I hated the tfv8 but I realized how to make it work and it's actually very good. Smok has a new smaller tank that looks quite good. The name escapes me. Its not a tfv series tank it has a new name.

Ive been using the istick squeeze a lot with the I name no toy atomizer for mtl. I bought a nautilus x and hate it. The flavor is awful the triton mini and relevant coils are way better.

I bought the wismac rx mini kit. The knurling is he best I've ever seen on a tank unfortunately there isn't enough airflow for my taste when lung hitting. Its small but bulky and heavy. It doesn't compete with the mini volt and its the weight and almost the siege of the istick pico which is more pocketable. So They device is in no mans land. I expected it to Be thinner in the pocket. It goes on the pile.

I'm going to list almost everything I own now as I have changed vaping style. I'm leaning now towards disposable coils more. I've tried the noname lazy which takes clr coils and is a mtl bottom
Feed atomizer. Its very good for mtl and flavor. Not enough vapor output for me


I've also shifted to using the cync and icare go when I'm out. Hard to debate the merits. Loaded with 45% nicotine salt juice. The icare gets me salt-e juice. Conoli right now. It I have some
Mint chocolate marshmallow to try.

So I'm all ears for recommended tanks you lot are loving. Sorry i am so far behind in this thread I just have to ask to let me know. If I tried to catch up it would take a long long time. It slipped if
My subscribed list :/.

I have so many vaping items that are more mass market I could talk about but this is already a book

I wish you all a happy new year and I'll try to stay caught up here now !

I`ve done enough searching now Trish, fed up with it ! I`m going to try the link what George sent me right now and start from scratch if I can :)
OK Terry - hope it goes well! :)

Hi! Happy Christmas/New Year to come! Hope all is well with you.
Are you still coming back to the UK?

That's the idea but I had some news about my back that may have postponed it. I really need some real world input on what nhs is like there now to make some
Decisions. I get conflicting information. I need a free back surgeries still it seems probably 2-4 and so I'm very undecided hoe to best handle it. One person tells me england is horrible and I'll never get the care I need another family member says it can be a little slow to start but ultimately would take a few months and the care is good.

If anyone there has time for a conversation and any opinions or thoughts maybe we can have a pm. I can't go back there then have it be years for me to get surgery and months before they'll even Medicate me.

I'm very much looking forward to moving back. My mother is very against it. She says I'm too Americanized to go back now. I disagree. I may sound like, well probably a Canadian, but my entire upbringing was British and all my family are there.

This is a New Year offer from Nicoticket who are sadly closing:

View attachment 624075

I wonder if hat proactive decision making or if it would have happened regardless of regulations. They were a staple and while not too my taste on average I can appreciate they were a big part of the community. So it's a shame to see a company like that go out of business.

Humble juice company ha soretty good juice at very low prices if anyone wants to try new affordable line. Make sure you only checkout with the bogo not win individual items. It will make sense if you take a moment to read upon first visit to their site.

May depend on where in the UK you'd plan to live.
For me, front line treatment is first class - I was sent in as an emergency just over a year ago, and although I didn't realise it until a few days later, they did save my life: sepsis caused by U. Colitis.
I did get moved around more than I liked (got me in the wrong department initially, but still gave me the right mix of fluids & antibiotics IV.)
Yes, there are waiting lists for non urgent things - do you have a physician in the US who could liaise with a counterpart here to get an idea of how long it would take to get your treatment begun here?

Also, there's a way to check the doctors (GP's) and hospitals in each area for the Care Quality Rating: Care Quality Commission, and also actual patient ratings etc on this site: NHS Choices Home Page (I found us an excellent GP practice using this site and reading the reviews etc.)

Once you get a GP, and are here, your records can be transferred and I see no reason why your medication can't be continued. Again, asking the right body of people - such as on the above site - could give you a better answer regarding your medication continuation.

I'm very much looking forward to moving back. My mother is very against it. She says I'm too Americanized to go back now. I disagree. I may sound like, well probably a Canadian, but my entire upbringing was British and all my family are there.
Plenty of American people live here very happily! I'd say you having had a British upbringing have the advantage! :)

The Code NewYears2017 is for the 70% off - looks like it's staying until the inventory is sold.
They reluctantly made the decision due to the regulations.

If there had been more high VG ones, I'd have a number of favourites (I liked Wakonda and Virus etc., but had to mix the PG content down with something simple like Crème Brule).

George/Trish, just to let you know that installing a fresh copy of win 10 from Your Link George worked wonders :) I`m still using Bing but I`m going to try Chrome one last time, and if it still gives me problems I`ll bugger it off for good. A tad wary but here goes, will report back later :)
