When it's about 3 seconds after starting, press f9 and follow the prompts if you have the installation disc

Just tried it boss still nothing

My Acer laptop refuse to display this morning and it doesn't even show the Acer logo it's just blank from start. I have windows 10 installed on it.

I have tried removing the battery and holding power button and to no avail.

Please someone should help me if you know anything thank you.

Am a little low on budget so I want to know if AMD a9 processor (7th Gen) with 512mb amd dedicated graphics, is a good one although it's within my budget but costlier than an intel core i5 with a 512mb Nvidia graphics.

Also there is another one with a9 processor too with 2gb amd dedicated graphics.

So I don't know why and moreover I want to use it for 3D stimulation and Programming stuff.

Please help me analyse.

May the best team win.


ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Now Guardiola is back in the Champions League final with a Manchester City side that, at their best, do approach the excellence of that Barcelona team.

And not only has this City team taken their manager to his first European final in a decade - not to mention winning the Premier League and the Carabao Cup - but they've achieved much of it without a proper centre forward.

Guardiola's 'false nine' policy this season may have been devised out of necessity but it's proved stunningly effective.

Whether by accident or design, Guardiola can again be considered to have again elevated the game to new levels with his innovation. Frankly, he's been taking the mickey at times.


Away to Chelsea in January, for example, with Gabriel Jesus sidelined with coronavirus and Sergio Aguero out of sorts, he just stuck Kevin De Bruyne up front and watched the Belgian lead a devastating three-goal first-half.

Phil Foden has enjoyed a stunning breakthrough season - and often from an advanced role.

Riyad Mahrez, a wide forward, has been tucked inside to great effect at times this season.


Man City goalscorers during 2020-21
17 - Ilkay Gundogan

16 - Phil Foden

14 - Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez, Gabriel Jesus

13 - Ferran Torres

10 - Kevin De Bruyne

6 - Sergio Aguero

5 - Bernardo Silva, John Stones


The following week at Manchester United in the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup, Pep led with Riyad Mahrez in the No 9 position and they breezed through with a 2-0 win.

A visit to the reigning champions Liverpool in early February saw youngster Phil Foden positioned there and he rounded off a man of the match performance with a stunning goal in an emphatic 4-1 win.

Then there were City's memorable wins en route to Saturday night's Champions League final with Chelsea in Porto.

The 2-1 home win in the first leg against Borussia Dortmund saw Bernardo Silva start as the spearhead in a 4-2-3-1 formation with De Bruyne, Foden and Mahrez in support.


Away from home in the return, the same trio saw City out of a tricky spot after Jude Bellingham's opening goal to storm through in the second-half.

Clearly convinced of the merits of pushing midfielders into advanced positions, Guardiola stuck with this combination against Paris Saint-Germain and was rewarded when De Bruyne and Mahrez settled the away first leg, with Aguero and Jesus benched and not even required.

The second leg saw De Bruyne partner Silva in a 2-0 victory that guided City to their first-ever Champions League final with relative aggregate comfort in the end.

So in all the milestone games in what could on Saturday become City's greatest-ever season, Guardiola has gone without a conventional centre forward and they've still prospered.

Ilkay Gundogan has embraced the role, too, and it explains why he is City's leading goalscorer this season on 17, with Foden second on 16.

Gabriel Jesus has struggled to score prolifically and Guardiola has often left him out his team.

Sergio Aguero enjoyed a fond farewell on Sunday but fitness issues have held him back
Most opposition managers can guess which strikers a team will deploy and adapt their own tactics accordingly.

Guardiola's rotation of midfielders into the false nine role keeps them guessing. Will Thomas Tuchel know for definite in the lead-up to Saturday's final whom his defenders will be facing directly? It's highly unlikely.

The genius of De Bruyne has long been beyond any doubt while the talented Foden has enjoyed a fine breakthrough season but their versatility in becoming forwards has still been impressive.

Mahrez is, of course, a wide forward but has a skill set adaptable to a central role, while Gundogan and Silva have demonstrated strings to their bow many didn't know exist.

It's not quite a modern redrafting of the Total Football philosophy in which everyone on the pitch can do everything but it's certainly refreshing.


Midfielder Ilkay Gundogan - City's leading goalscorer - has been truly excellent all season
Phil Foden capped a man of the match display away at Liverpool with a stunning finish +11
Phil Foden capped a man of the match display away at Liverpool with a stunning finish
However, Guardiola's false nine strategy may prove to be a one-season wonder. It's well established that City are in the market for a centre forward this summer, with a world class goalscorer such as Erling Haaland or Harry Kane very much in the frame.

That would certainly eradicate the need to push De Bruyne or Foden into attack. It has been the absence of a striker who can reliably supply 30 goals that forced Guardiola's hand this season.


Given City's achievements in this campaign, the prospect of them with a top quality centre forward banging in the goals is truly frightening.

It may be Aguero's final season at the club and he may have gone out with a bang with those two goals against Everton on Sunday but he's lacked the fitness and form to make it a truly special farewell.

Bernardo Silva has also stepped up into the false nine role to good effect at time this season.

It now falls to Thomas Tuchel and Chelsea to decipher Guardiola's intentions in the final
Just 19 appearances, eight starts and six goals amid knee and hamstring injuries plus a bout of Covid have meant Guardiola has been unable to depend on the Argentine.

Though Jesus has 14 goals and suffered injury issues at the beginning of the season, he still doesn't look like the kind of striker who will power City to success.

The arrival of a Kane or Haaland would see him demoted in the pecking order and you do wonder whether he'd hang around.

More impressive has been the Spanish forward Ferran Torres, who has scored 13 times though often from a wider attacking position.


So there is certainly a striker vacancy at the Etihad Stadium and it will be filled over the summer. But the last few months have been pretty fun nonetheless and Pep's false nine could yet take City to unprecedented glory.

You should have highlighted some parts of your post

Okay sir!!

While Manchester City and Chelsea will meet in the Champions League final as the two most deserving sides, they’ll also arrive as two of the most expensively assembled ones too.

Few nations in Europe can rival the Premier League when it comes to spending power and at the top of that list of English big spenders is undoubtedly this seasons’ finalists.

But where do the Englush giants rank among all of football’s clubs when it comes to spending money over the course of the last five years?

Fortuntely for us, the clever clogs at the CIES Football Observatory have already ran the numbers and have rankeed the top 15 clubs in European football based on their transfer deficits since 2016.

As expected, Pep Guardiola’s club sit top of the list with a net loss of €631 million, with Manchester United just behind them on €586 million. The two Premier League giants have plunged more money into transfers than any other side in Europe’s Big Five leagues.

Indeed, clubs from England’s top flight dominate the list of teams to have the biggest net spend in the game since 2016. According to the report, Premier League clubs account for 10 of the top 15 sides in terms of negative balance in the transfer market.

Everton, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Arsenal, Brighton, Tottenham, Wolves and Fulham have all spent lavishly while receiving little in return.

In total, the Premier League has a transfer net spend of €4.52bn.

Net spend: The 15 biggest transfer deficits in Europe’s Big 5 leagues
Club Losses on transfers (€m)
Manchester City 631
Manchester United 586
Barcelona 471
Paris Saint-Germain 455
Inter 386
Everton 346
Aston Villa 339
Milan 311
Chelsea 308
Arsenal 299
Brighton 259
Tottenham Hotspur 250
Wolves 249
Juventus 249
Fulham 190
Meanwhile, the only Spanish club in this list is Barcelona, who have a net spend of €471m and have the third poorest record in this regard. The Catalans have spent more money than any other side in Europe.

Paris Saint-Germain unsurprisingly appear on this list, posting transfer losses of €455m, having broke the world record to sign Neymar from Barcelona in 2017, a deal swiftly followed up by the signing of Kylian Mbappe, who became the world’s second most expensive player.

Serie A, somewhat surprisingly, has three teams in this net spend list. Inter are highest up the chart, followed by San Siro rivlas Milan, while Juventus come in 14th.

Ligue 1 clubs dominate the list of sides with the best net spend records in European football over the course of the last five years, with Lille, Lyon and Monaco occupying three of the top four spots. Saint-Etienne are also in the top 10.

Hoffenheim and Borussia Dortmund represent the Bundesliga, while three Italian sides have shown their acumen in the transfer market by running profits – Atalanta, Sampdoria and Genoa.

Remarkably, every Premier League team in the study has posted a net spend over the period since 2016, with Southampton’s €50m the smallest deficit in England’s top flight.

Net surplus: The 10 biggest in Europe’s Big 5 leagues
Club Profit on Transfers (€m)
Lille 191
Olympique Lyonnais 151
Atalanta 133
Monaco 132
Hoffenheim 87
Saint-Etienne 78
Borussia Dortmund 77
Sampdoria 76
Genoa 75
Valencia 67

Ten Big Transfers That Could Happen this Summer (Part One)

The summer transfer window will soon be open, and, whilst the market is still substantially affected by the financial impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, there still some big names who could be on the move in the weeks ahead.


Erling Haaland

Haaland is arguably the hottest property in world football right now.

Since joining Borussia Dortmund from Red Bull Salzburg, he has scored 57 goals in 59 appearances for the Bundesliga side.

It is not a question of if he moves toa bigger club, but when, with Dortmund publicly insisting he is not for sale. Money talks, however, and if the right bid comes in, they will listen to offers, though they will likely need to be north of £120 million.

Only a small handful of clubs could afford that – Manchester City, PSG, and Chelsea.


Kylian Mbappé

The 22-year old World Cup winner has made no secret of his ambition to one day play for Real Madrid. The only question is whether he makes the move now or is happy to spend another season or two at PSG.

His current deal in Paris expires next year, so both club and player have a decision to take.

Real have made no secret of their desire to take him, but their financial situation is poor, and they may need to sell players first. And the decision of Zinedine Zidane to resign as manager complicates matters further.

At the same time, PSG need to convince Mbappé of their ambition if he is to stay. A second place finish in the league and another failure in the Champions League have not been the best advertisement for that.


Harry Kane

Now 27 Harry Kane has just won the Golden Boot award for the 2021-21 season in England. However, he has shocked Tottenham fans by admitting in a TV interview that he wants to leave the club because he wants to start winning trophies on a regular basis.

He also claims that he has a gentleman’s agreement with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy that will allow him to leave the club he has supported sine he was a boy.

Spurs initial response is to play hard ball, and claim he is not for sale at any price. And Levy, a renowned tough negotiator in the transfer market, could set any fee for him so high that it effectively prices teams out.

Kane is under contract until 2024 but trying to make a player stay who does not want to rarely works.

This is likely to be one of the most protracted battles of the summer, but, when the dust settles, it would be no surprise to see him wearing a Manchester City shirt next season.


Cristiano Ronaldo

Whilst he may still have a year left on his current contract at Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo has implied that he may soon be moving on again. Having topped the Serie A goalscoring charts, he has said hat he has achieved the goals he wanted when he moved to Italy, and his decision to move his luxury fleet of cards back to Madrid has been taken by some as a sign that he intends to return to the Bernabeu.

At the same time, speculation has also linked him with returns to former clubs Sporting Lisbon and Manchester United.

One barrier for any club signing him though are his wages He may now be 36, but his salary demands will put him out of the reach of all but a small elite group of clubs.


Jadon Sancho

The England winger Sancho has been told by Borussia Dortmund that he can leave Borussia Dortmund this summer, and he seems destined for a return to the Premier League.

Manchester United, who spent virtually the whole, of last summer trying to negotiate a deal for him only to fail to agree a price with the Bundesliga club, will begin as the favourites to finally get their man this time. However, they are likely to be joined in any pursuit by Chelsea, who may try and tempt him with the chance to return to his London roots again.

Valued at well over £100 million a year ago, Dortmund need the money so will accept a lower fee than that hit time round.

Mustiboy:
You're yarning dust.


Xiaomi beats Transsion in every aspect you mentioned there, and it is a far bigger brand that Transsion globally. Xiaomi competes with Samsung and Apple, not all these small boys.

That said, Xiaomi only launched in Nigeria less than two years ago, so it's only a matter of time before they overtake Transsion.

Xiaomi has been overtaking almost every brand in every country they launched, and these are brands far better than Transsion.

Show me one Transsion device that is currently better than Xiaomi's Midranger, Redmi Note 10 Pro.

Yes I know there are better but for now the Transsion has it that's why I said they will give Transsion a run for their money if they eventually mean business in Africa.

The thing is Transsion can't compete against them overseas but the Transsion are happy with their business which Redmi is about to spoil Samsung tried they couldn't let's see if Xiaomi can do it cause they are armed to the teeth love to see the response from Transsion though.

Good day Guys!!!

Pardon my English in case of any error.

I have been witnessing the war going on with the Xiaomi and Transsion counterparts to be sincere in my own point of view.

Transsion are based around budget devices and alot of people I know trust either Tecno, Itel or infinix due to the availability of parts incase of damage and it's flawless I love that but I think the durability of a phone rest more on the build and the owner I remember back then smashing my Tecno W3 on the wall the phone got blind so know I have been using Tecno too now this lead me down to this.

Processor:

Xiaomi is superior in this aspect but I won't fault Transsion cause it might be one of their marketing strategies, but even at similar price Xiaomi still tops.

Ram:

Transsion delivers more ram for budget price than Xiaomi.

Screen:

Xiaomi has more better screens than Transsion phone and even more pixel density.

Design:

Am gonna leave this one to the users to judge.

Features:

Xiaomi phones have more features e.g NFC, IRblaster but NFC is not mostly use in Nigeria so it does not mean much.

Durability:

I won't say but I have used an umidigi a3 pro for almost like two years and I didn't have any issues the phone is still in good shape even after some countless dropping it still survived without cracks until I smashed it against the wall out of foolish anger (maybe I have anger issues loLzzz)
I knew it was done for but it survived with little cracks on the front and the back glass you won't notice it if you don't look closely that was the day I gave umidigi a thumbs up though it's not ip rated but it handles water pretty well got soaked sometimes and it still live.

So my view is it doesn't matter carlcare or not if the phone is durable enough and you handle it very well it will serve you well.

MIUI vs Hios

Again down to personal preference but i like the MiUi more.

Brand size:

Xiaomi is a bigger brand more than Transsion having their own other accessories but in Nigeria Transsion takes the lead(don't know about the Africa continent as a whole).

Camera:

I think the Xiaomi edge a bit since the productivity of a camera does not depend on the the number of mp (megapixel) but don't get me wrong some Transsion phones cameras can still be better than Xiaomi's.

Value for Money:

It is a tough one but if you on a low budget Transsion is the way but if you gat the cash to splash then Xiaomi is the way.



So folks let's not argue again it's clear Transsion ain't aiming for the best unlike Xiaomi are, that's why they dominate the Africa or Nigerian market but Xiaomi can give them a run for their money, cause Xiaomi have more better options to offer even at a similar price range but it won't be easy breaking the hold and trust Transsion has on the market.

Final take

Both brands are good

Give me your take thanks folks.

Good morning guys with all the battle going on I just wanna emphasis on how powerful the Poco x3 pro is, for me it's the budget king of smartphone or mostly for gamers though, a Snapdragon 860 (flagship processor) for a low price?? Xiaomi for me isn't aiming at just the top with the (MI 11 Ultra trying to displace Samsung or have even displaced it) but also the midrange and budget market.

The price of this beast is around 87k - 120k on AliExpress I know it will be more than that if it's on Jumia.

Good DAY GUYS!!!

I saw some stuffs concerning carryovers:
E.g they will divide your points according to how many times you rewrite the course, some said the point is lost and you just need to pass it.

BUT

Today I was opportuned to speak with my course advicer and I asked him about this same stuff and he said all your scores will be recorded accordingly e.g if you pass the course your points will be added to your c.g.p.a/g.p.a there is no deduction, the issue is just the workload.

So to all you with carryovers wish you success and moreover is another chance for you to prove your worth, so don't be scared or anything.

Don't let people make you commit suicide ooo (LOLzzzzz)

The Lord is your strength.

iamcee:


Sex before marriage isn't a good thing..I just feel bad about the way pre-marital sex is now common.
If the guy loves you,he should wait..that would even be of great help in avoiding the problem of sexual diseases, abortions,etc.
Now,males and females are just in relationship for nothing else than sex and money.. that's bad...
Premarital sex isn't a good thing.. don't involve in it if you haven't
Once your partner understands you,you won't have problem.
One reason why getting a partner who understand you well is important

I agree with you

iamcee:


Exactly..you got it

Yes it's really Important.

iamcee:


There are gonna be cases in which one partner would feel lust for another but a good communication and understanding of each other could solve that.
I have seen cases in which a guy doesn't feel love for a girl before being in a relationship with her,but some days after the relationship started,he doesn't feel lust for her anymore..

Wow that's amazing

Doradorwa:
My opinion about sex before marriage is that if you can help it then don't have sex till you get married... There are some things that are involve in premarital sex that are way bigger than us... You have unplanned pregnancy, sexual diseases, abortions that sometimes cause emotional breakdown for the woman...
If your partner is understanding and really want to be with you then the lust will die... Communication and understanding is what matter... Cos sooner or later when reality of life kicks in sex stop being a priority...

I love this
