Win-Raid -- New Home ! Upgrading forum software and evolving

Agreed.

I used to visit here (the old one) often to read various threads just like people open FB, Twitter everyday to scroll and read posts/tweets. I have hardly visited here since the migration because of the forum software.

Greatly appreciated the work done by folks of winraid/level1techs but this software needs some interface change.

Sorry to say but I agree with the 3 posts above. The forum just isn’t the same and the layout is awful.

On a side note I’m sad to hear about the end of WinRaid - it was such a great community.
Thanks to everyone who made the site what it was.
Gonna miss it!

How do I unlock the ability to post a bios request on this site? I think I need basic trust level to post. :clock12:

Im on the badges page but I cannot find the new user tutorial anywhere on the site: Win-Raid Forum

You can get to trust level 1 by:

Ive been on this site for like 1 hour, how do I “read posts” I have scrolled through threads but that hasn’t triggered anything. Im trying to request a bios downgrade/unlock on an Alienware m16 R1 amd but I cant post anything in the insyde request section.

I am allowed to comment and edit my comments though, that’s the only thing I can do. It says I have basic access but I still cannot post.

@MeatWar How do I post a bios request? (I mentioned you for that badge btw, hoping that lets me post).

This is an automated server process, wait for it.
You can post a shared link from a sharing service/cloud service of your preference, you don’t need to attach a file directly to this forum, for now.

What do you mean by posting a shared link of my preference?

@Arc717, what @MeatWar is saying is that you can post with, for example, a Google Drive or Mega link in the text of your post.

Oh I see. I reread that and it made sense (guess I was a bit tired when I first read it). I want to request a bios mod/downgrade under “BIOS/UEFI Modding ----> BIOS Modding Requests” but when I go there, there is no button to post a request. I was told to just wait a bit for the site to update my ability to post. I don’t need to attach any pictures or anything. Thank you for clarifying that post though.

@Arc717
Nothing wrong, simply this forum isn’t a “bios mod shop” and its made of users and helpers, that may know how to attend your request or not.
Payments or donations are not a “boost” in this matters

If now one has the knowledge to mod/unlock your bios on that specific system model, then your not alone, once in a while there’s several requests that cannot be fulfilled.

Bios mods on AMD platforms have a low rate of success, more complicated and lower percentage against Intel platforms.

Do please not post here in this thread (a NEWS thread) regarding your request post, its there that you’ll have to add or edit any further info.

Ok, understood, deleted the post.
