Well, I found maybe a way to go. I'm just going to burn myself a DVD with Hexen installed, so I can repair the HDD of the Xbox. I hope ofcourse that it isn't dead and the modchip installation repair will do the work.

#

if not, next step would be to replace the clock capacitor, have to do it sadly since it is a weird revision of the Xbox, 2003.

#

It worked and booted right up.

#

It indeed just worked. Well, here in my hands is now a fully functional original Xbox.

#

Is still got error 13 though but that's really easy to fix, already fixed it too

pure venture
#

Alright anyways

#

My friend want to sell me his monitor

#

He has 2 and recently changed to a curved one

#

He doesn't know much about them but he said one is small and the other is bigger but the screen flickers when you game

#

Strange

#

I wanna have that crt back ._.

#

this was like already 3 years ago, when I didn't even have that many consoles and didn't consider to collect consoles.

#

These 3 consoles just stood there and got dust by standing, the wii was packed into a big red box with no use since I got it in 2015 from my cousin... Well, things have changed.

celest nova
#

Well, nonetheless I worked 3 hours on my old tablet. Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, was stuck on low ass Android 5.1.1 and just didn't make the job, even opening up gmail was an issue. So in those 3 hours I installed custom recovery and firmware, now LineageOS based on Android 10 is running just fine on this tablet, supporting really everything.

Just disassembled the Xbox now, gonna wash the plastics outside tomorrow, then all the electronics get cleaned with 99% alcohol, aswell as the clock capacitor gets either replaced or removed.

Hey guys I need a bit of help

#

Just got a new headset with a mic

#

And it only works one at a time

#

So I can only use the headphones at one time

#

Or only the mic

#

I can't use both

#

How do I fix this?

#

@kind sapphire

celest nova
#

does it only have one 9mm jack?

#

Had that same issue with mine, couldn't get it to work properly so I thought that I would reconsider to a USB Headset anyway, so I bought me a new one.

@pure venture are you sure you didn't buy a console headset and tried using it on the pc?

@spiral yew @kind sapphire found out the problem. had to buy a splitter

only had one 3.5mm jack 😫

what headset had you bought?

just some cheap ones temporarily

idk what theyre called

i mean but the sound quality is good for £15

mighty idol

and it doesn't give any splitter picardfacepalm

#

even my earphone has a splitter woah

pliant comet
#

According to the description, you may need to use splitter, which takes the headset's plug and converts it to 2 separate 3.5mm plugs. Depending on the computer, you may not need it.

Well, I have one ITS ST 66mhz for the Socket 3 board and a Pentium 4, not a Pentium for Socket 4. But yeah, the first one is also in that range.

I first wanted to wait for some newer PCs to get obsolete, but since they only have that system at the moment I took that one.

I was originally looking for a 3080ti but the prices on ebay right now are so similar between the 3080ti and 3090 that I'm thinking I may as well just bag a 3090 instead

It's a really nice view, super easy to disassemble, a laptop where the CPU isn't soldered onto the board.

Current Specs: Intel Core 2 Duo T7200, ATI X1600 & 2GB DDR2 RAM.

You can rollback to w10 without reinstall

might as well stay on 11 at this point unless you're having issues tbh

Windows XP is still a nice OS - but risky to use - however, I'd stay on win 11 when you have no issues and apparently 3v thought the same but was faster kek

You could try using HP website to get all the drivers, all though you might need to manually select the OS.

Some of them still don't work, had go grab them from multiple sites

To be honest, I think you'll run out of iGPU power before VRAM. What APU is it?

pure venture
#

Oh god lmao idk what an apu is

#

I've only just bought a pc and getting into all of this stuff

#

I know a bit but not what an apu is

pure venture
cold frigate
#

What CPU? And APU is a CPU with integrated graphics.

pure venture
#

Will that affect current vram?

cold frigate
pure venture
#

No that's not what meant

#

I'm changing out the old stick to have 2 new ram sticks

#

Will that affect the current vram too or not?

cold frigate
pure venture
cold frigate
pure venture
#

Oh alright that's good cause I've got 2gb vram automatically allocated for some reason

#

So when I put in the new ram, instead of 16gb I'll have 14gb unless I change it?

cold frigate
#

But 2GB is the allocated amount already. I don't think allocating more will make too much of a difference. The RAM speed is what'll give you more of the performance increase.

pure venture
#

Yeah that's why I'm changing ram to get more fps

cold frigate
pure venture
#

It's a big budget build

pure venture
#

So will any ram fit on any motherboard?

cold frigate
#

DDR4 is a global standard. So yes.

pure venture
#

Alright

#

Cause on one description it said it only fits on Intel builds...?

cold frigate
pure venture
#

Alright forget that, I'm also thinking of adding a graphics card into the build. Which one should I go for if I want it to be better than my Vega 11 integrated graphics?

cold frigate
#

That's up to your budget to be honest.

pure venture
cold frigate
#

Really, anything Nvidia 1030 and better would be an upgrade.

pure venture
#

It says that Vega 11 would get more fps than a 1030 in GTA 5

cold frigate
#

There's a lot of comparison videos of Vega 11 vs other GPUs in game performance. Pick a GPU and check comparisons on YouTube.

cold frigate
pure venture
#

Alright

#

Yeah I guess a 1030 is just a bit old

#

Apparently a Vega 11 is one of the best intergated graphics you can get atm

cold frigate
#

Yeah it is, tbh. I have an R5 4650G PRO, Vega 7. 3400G still outperforms me but a few FPS.

pure venture
#

That's not bad

#

I run GTA at like 50 fps but at a crappy resolution

#

I don't mind graphics, as long as its a fun game I'll play it

#

But of course nice graphics is nicer to look at

pure venture
#

I still need to update my graphics drivers, when I start my pc I get this pixelated screen for like 15 seconds

cold frigate
#

Yeah. With GPU prices atm, not gonna be upgrading soon. 👀

pure venture
#

And only when I open GTA it happens too but at a lower resolution

cold frigate
#

There's also an auto updater tool on the AMD site.

pure venture
#

I was messing with the settings once and my monitor could only run 59.4hz

#

When I changed it to 60hz I got the pixelated screen

#

Really don't know why it was only capable of doing 59.4

cold frigate
pure venture
#

Could that be because it's a bit damaged?

cold frigate
#

Nah. It's most probably driver.

#

Is it second-hand?

pure venture
#

Yeah

#

My friend sold it to me for £10

cold frigate
#

Bargain.

pure venture
#

Sometimes it goes black for like 3 seconds

#

And once the vga signal just completely cut out

#

And it's really dumb, my pc doesn't have vga, but my monitor only has vga

cold frigate
#

Yeah, it's def the driver. The same happens to me with Discord. It just cuts signal every time a GIF loads.

pure venture
#

So I had to wait like 3 days to get a dvi-d to vga cable

pure venture
#

And also according to the windows tool in up to date when I automatically searched

cold frigate
#

You can check the driver version in the radeon software, and compare it to the available driver on AMD site. But it's most likely up to date. AMD drivers are trash, and they've been trash since forever.

mighty idol
#

maybe try to use older driver?

pure venture
#

That's what it does when I start up

mighty idol
#

I'm using nvidia and using old driver also....

pure venture
#

And it stops after a few secs

#

And when I open gta it's the same thing but with way less pixels

cold frigate
#

Weird...

mighty idol
#

you're using integrated graphic right?

pure venture
#

Yeah

#

Vega 11

#

When I open gta

mighty idol
#

what monitor do you use?

pure venture
#

Some Asus monitor

#

Idk the name

#

Oh yeah and when I tab out of GTA, it goes pixelated again

mighty vine
#

Inb4 the iGPU is messed up

pure venture
#

Huh?

cold frigate
#

Paid only 10 euro for it though. bearshrug1

pure venture
#

My friend said I can also choose a Samsung monitor

cold frigate
#

Did you ask your friend if it's damaged?

pure venture
#

But it was really thick

pure venture
#

On the bottom left there's like a pink line going up

#

Not really noticeable though

cold frigate
#

Dude, CPUs are bloody fragile. Even the smallest little crack can kill it. So really, I'd just live with it. You're lucky it still even works.

mighty idol
#

you've checked your cable?

cold frigate
#

I was just thinking, the DVI-D to VGA adaptor could be causing it to look pixelated.

#

Because, digital to analogue.

pure venture
#

But possibly

#

When I replugged it it stopped going black

#

For like a few days

#

Then it started again

mighty idol
#

or try to install the monitor driver if it's there

pure venture
#

Can I get a link

#

When I goto automatically search it says none found

mighty idol
#

what monitor do you use?

cold frigate
#

Then it doesn't have one.

mighty idol
#

try check on asus website

pure venture
#

Alright

#

When I stop playing gta I'll look for it

#

Many thanks guys, appreciate it alot

mighty idol
pure venture
#

Gotta do a heist now with trevor 😎

mighty idol
#

when I search online, there are many people in many forum facing the vega 11 display problem....

pure venture
#

Oh wow

mighty idol
pure venture
#

Wow

#

That's weird

mighty idol
#

but it old forum...

pure venture
#

Thanks for that

#

I thought I was the only one

mighty idol
pure venture
#

lmao i have an msi board

#

oh god

mighty idol
#

try update bios.....if there is newer version

pure venture
#

Okay

#

Yeah thanks for that bro

Really helped

You can def run higher resolutions better with a 1030 than my 4650G (Vega 7) for example.

Try removing dedicated GPU, if the computer has one. If its CPU or motherboard has integrated GPU, it should display anything on its output once you take out the dedicated GPU.

For people with AMD graphics having issues with GIFs on Discord causing flickering, turn off hardware acceleration. thisisfine

pure venture
#

How do I know if this fits on my motherboard?

celest nova
#

You know it when your motherboard supports DDR4 RAM

pure venture
#

Oh that's it?

celest nova
#

yep

pure venture
#

Yeah mines DDR4

#

Perfect thanks bud

#

That ram or a corsair one?

celest nova
#

and if you want to take the full advantage of your stick - look up how much frequency ur cpu and motherboard support. So that if you were to buy a for example 3600MHz stick and your combo only supports 3200MHz, your ram sticks clock down and you can't use the full ram frequency.

pure venture
#

Hmm okay

#

Is there a way to check like what motherboard I'm using? It's a prebuilt

cold frigate
#

Google the oem model, the details should come up.

pure venture
#

Uhh

#

I don't know what motherboard it is, it's an msi one

#

Don't really know any more than that honestly

celest nova
#

Oh, with prebuilts it can be expensive and well bad to get parts for. It depends there on which brand your prebuilt is like Dell and you'll have to get special RAM.

#

Oh well MSI, gotta look that up then.

pure venture
#

Yeah it's not a big manufacturer

celest nova
#

MSI is a big one

pure venture
#

It's a Fierce PC, that's the name

pure venture
celest nova
#

MSI is a big company, not a bad one

pure venture
#

Oh yeah I know that

#

Does that basically mean it will support more ram better

#

Like you mentioned with the getting most out of my ram

#

Cause my ram currently is some corsair one, 1 stick of 8gb and 2993mhz

#

And the one I want it 2 sticks of 8gb for 3200mhz
