Hello!

I'm reinstalling windows 10 on my laptop (MSI GS66 Stealth 10se) from scratch and only enabling security updates therefore I need to install all the drivers on my own.

So far I have installed my Intel integrated graphics driver and a wireless driver and a driver for my dedicated GPU. I got all of these straight from Intel's website and not from my laptops manufacturers website.

On my laptops manufacturer website I can also see a chipset driver. I tried to look for it on Intel's website but only found a "Chipset INF Utility" (driver?). After looking on google and over the interwebs I found out that this INF Utility isn't really a driver but needed for naming some system components in the windows devices settings (devmgmt.msc).

I downloaded this supposed chipset driver form my laptop manufacturer's website and it seemed to be an older version of this INF Utility from Intel. But if this INF Utility is not a driver (laptop manufacturer calls it a driver) do I need a chipset driver? How do I know If I need one anyways? And where do I get a chipset driver if I need one?

I don't know if its the right Lemmy community to ask but I thought its worth a try haha.

So I'm looking for the name of a game I played around 2000-2007 on windows XP. I would say this game has some similarities to exo one. It‘s also very similar to the game “SpaceRoads” (it’s on steam). The difference to SpaceRoads is that you actually slide down as well (if I remember correctly) and are some sort of ball not a space ship. You’re a ball or disc on a huge slide in space. Your objective is to slide all the way down to finish the level. I think there was a bigger cube after the finish line where you had to slide in. You could easily fall down and there were some obstacles in your way. There were also power ups that let you slow down time when you held down space (you also changed color while slowing down time and holding down space). Another power up was the ability to jump also by pressing space (you also changed color) and one more power up was speeding up by holding down space (not sure about this power up). I’m not really sure about the power up pickups. Maybe it was like one level with the ability to jump when pressing space and the next level with the ability to slow down time while holding space.

Its similar to the game Ballance and Chromadrome. Its like a combination of Ballance, Chromadrome and SpaceRoads.

Any help is hugely appreciated. Thanks everyone!:)

Edit: Graphics wise its similar to the Mario N64 DS multiplayer slide level where youbl could race against your multiplayer buddy.

Hello Lemmy!

How do you recommend dealing with your old reddit account/ posts? Should I delete my old posts or just leave them there? Or maybe replace everything with the same text?

I heard that reddit might be restoring deleted posts. Would editing the post and then deleting it or just editing it be the better alternative to just deleting it?

I've seen the post that recommends doing all that BEFORE the API shutdown but now it's after so I figured maybe something had changed about the tactics?

How did you go about it?

I created a month ago a Lemmy account using a throwaway email. Now I cannot sign in anymore. Is it possible that lemmy.world deleted my account around a week after it's creation?

Hello, I just have a quick question regarding lemmy instances.

If one instance doesn't allow creating new communities and I register a lemmy account on that instance am I going to be able to create a new community on another instance using that lemmy account? Also if it has turned off downvotes is it possible to downvote posts on other instances?
