This is something I have covered on my blog and our telegram channel.
https://inquisitiveuniverse.com/2022/09/03/why-you-should-format-your-microsd-card-before-use/
I'm going to go out on a limb and presume that you didn't format the card on the phone before using it. Formatting on a PC before sticking it in your phone doesn't count.
Possible solution.
Back up the data on the card and insert on your phone. Use the phone to format the card, and then use like that.
Precautions
- Avoid using the PC to format the card. - Avoid removing the microSD from your phone without unmounting the card or turning the phone off completely. Hi bro. Thanks for replying quick. I actually formatted the card on my Phone before use. I want you to understand the problem please: It keeps requesting this formatting every single time I reboot my phone.If I don't reboot, no issues. But once I reboot, the issue resurfaces. I also did not format the card via PC at all. Before rebooting, I connected my phone to the PC to transfer files to the phone (not SD card) and was then able to see the memory capacity of the card in "This PC" view. I'm looking for a permanent fix as not rebooting my phone again is not feasible. The card is a microSDXC Atheistandproud genius43 gptech jboixxx |

Please I'm in a dilemma. I got a new SD card recently and I out it in my RN10P and was using it smoothly, but everytime I reboot my phone, It always tells me to format the SD card. It has happened over 3 times now. I looked online on Reddit here https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/rwln17/redmi_note_10_external_sd_card_problems/ but there's no apt solution to it. Please help me with a fix. PS: SD card is in good condition, confirmed via Windows PC analytics Genius43 atheistandproud gptech |

galantjoe: I blocked my childhood male friend last week. He travelled to Angola for the past 8years. he hardly called, i did all calls. when his father died, i called to sympathised with him. recently, he hardly replied my whatsapp and facebook msg. even if he replied, it will take weeks irrespective that he is always online. when i lost my brother, he didnt call me. no condolences from him.
he came back last month,he stayed in lagos for 3 weeks before returning to village. i went to see him as a good boy going to his childhood friend. his reception was poor and cold shoulder, even his mother persistently asked him to find me drinks and gift. but none was given. we gisted and i left. he gave a lot of people gifts. none was offered to me even evening hangout was not.
last week i heard that he travelled to Lagos. so i had to block him to have peace.
maybe level has change. i move on.
Please move on. I've had friends that acted like this. Very weird behaviour. 3 Likes |

Druss:
I honestly don't know. It depends on market prices and tbh I don't keep an eye on such.
I know of someone who had to import a brand new Legion 5 Pro Gen 6 which more than exceeds the above spec. That was for 1.3m naira. I presume minimal 400k if spent well. It could be for less as I don't know the second hand market in Nigeria.
One reason to watch and read reviews is for the actual performance of the laptop. Throttling, total power provided to the GPU can affect performance. Also build quality can be an issue. Look out for the generation of the CPU. All right. Thanks, bro. |

Onyeka90210: A gaming laptop with your budget may not be able to run 2021/2022 AAA games at best settings If you’re willing to play most at 720p or 900p to get a good frame rate, then it’s good. Best to check the gameplay for your preferred laptop specs before purchase. Foreign used: A laptop with Nvidia 1650 would cost above 350k 1060 would cost above 330k 1050ti would cost above 250k 970M above 250k 960M above 230k To summarize the best for your 250k budget is Hp Omen 2017 edition with 1050ti Followed by lenovo y700 with 960m If you can creep above your budget with like 20-40k Or wait to see a good deal to get the ones below, they are usually below 300k Dell Inspiron 15 7*** gaming series with 1050ti Hp pavilion 15 gaming with 1050ti Acer Nitro 5 with 1050ti Asus ROG G series with 970m Asus TUF and Strix with 1050ti Alienware 15 R2 with 970m 300k can get 970m or 1050ti Which is like the sweet spot for gaming. Like if you have 300k, you’ll be presented with a lot of choices (brands) but limited to the decent graphics card(970m-1050ti)which is still relevant, but that 250k is more like you’re scavenging. I won’t recommend anything below 940MX, except it’s light gaming or just for graphics work. You can check out Dell precision 15 5510 or Dell precision m3800/m4800 with Nvidia Quattro which is below 240k I have seen Nigerian used gaming laptops with 970m and 1050ti go below 200k but they usually have one or two issues, could be cosmetic damages, keyboard, majorly dead battery or all. A graphics laptop below 200k with give you Nvidia 840/860 series. But foreign used, like the ones below. Hp Envy 15/17 Hp Pavilion 15/17 Asus **** Lenovo y50 Acer aspire V series Lenovo IdeaPad Z series. Lenovo Flex There’s also some Dell Inspiron and Dell latitude with dedicated graphics. They can handle light gaming and graphics work. But not necessarily termed a gaming laptop. May Play Older titles well, but you'll have to make compromises in Quality to play newer titles at playable Framerate. Like I said earlier, best to watch gameplay and reviews of gaming laptops before you purchase.
Thanks mucho, man. You've been most helpful. I'll Google those ones you suggested and then watch performance videos. 1 Like |

Druss: Recommended Specs for PES2022
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system OS: Windows 10 - 64bit Processor: Intel Core i5-7600 / AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Memory: 8 GB RAM Graphics: GeForce GTX 1060 / AMD Radeon RX 590 Network: Broadband Internet connection Storage: 50 GB available space
Recommended Specs FIFA2022

Recommended Specs COD i.e., medium graphics at 60fps and definitely not competitive games. If going competitive, you will need a high refresh screen 144Hz minimum.
OS: Windows 10 64-bit (latest update) CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K or AMD Ryzen R5 1600X processor RAM: 12GB RAM HDD: 246GB HD space Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 / GTX 1660 or Radeon R9 390 / AMD RX 580 DirectX: Requires DirectX 12 compatible system Network: Broadband Internet connection Sound Card: DirectX Compatible

From above I would recommend you get a laptop with the below minimum requirements
OS: Windows 10 64-bit Processor: Intel Core i7 8th Gen / AMD Ryzen 5 Memory: 16GB Graphics: 6GB GPU Nvidia 1060 could be fine. Definitely not able to get any 30 series GPU at that budget Disk: 512GB preferably SSD Screen: 1080p i.e., FHD at above 60Hz refresh if possible.
For the budget you called - you will need second hand. I do not know any second hand sellers. I advise watching Jarrod's reviews to see how the laptop performs or other good gaming laptop reviewers. Best of luck. Thanks a lot. You've been helpful. How much should my budget be for a new one? |

Johnny147147: The M16 had a higher rate of fire, 700-950 rpm compared to the 600 rpm of the AK-47, and most shooters — including those that have used the weapons in combat — have tended to agree that the M16 is the more accurate. A trade-off is that the accuracy and range don't equate to penetration Call of Duty taught you well, bruh. |

So I will still be forced to subscribe my router to use at work, or if I go out with friends. I thought this was going to be like a mifi or something, this won't work in Nigeria at all. It's useless, why should I pay 68k a month while I cant even finish 200gb of 20k I do monthly. It's useless to me.
And it will be useless to alot of people. Even if you have kids it's still useless because DStv of 20k a month assuming you have that money will give you all the channels which is better than Netflix or stupid online streaming platform. Then you sub with 20k and collect 250gb for a month, unless you dey download files of 20gb all the time, you can't finish 200gb a month on ordinary video call, streaming and browsing.
