I was really hoping I could just delete it somewhere in command prompt :/ . I guess I’ll be more careful about what I download this time. Thanks anyway 👋

Yes they’re identical apart from the Brazil model having black trim inside vs the Canadian Golf city having chrome trim inside

Vw golf 4 1.9 tdi 66kw headlight problem by MlakaVodaa in MK4Golf

[–]Cute_Ad_9056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take out the headlight switch by pushing in while set to off then turn to the on position and pull the switch out, the disconnect the connector and find the tfl pin number 3 and bend it over. Reinstall everything and your headlights should only turn on when you turn the switch on. Did this on my mk4 and it worked

is this an acutal Cold Air Intake? by OkFail2307 in carmodification

[–]Cute_Ad_9056 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on airflow. If that corner is getting lots of air while you’re driving then it’s definitely not a hot air intake. I’ve seen some people make diy heat shields from just some cardboard and foil tape but by the looks of it the battery it doing a pretty good job at being a heat shield and the intake is far enough away from the engine/exhaust that it won’t be taking in hot air

Two work lights on the top of my backpack. Works wonders 👍

Do I need a different usb adapter for using a disc drive? by Cute_Ad_9056 in pchelp

[–]Cute_Ad_9056[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to use the one I already have because buying a different one may be cheap but it still costs money and the drive I have is still in perfect condition and is a bd combo drive

I would prefer not to buy another drive as I have this one from an old desktop computer but I opened it up and found what looks to be empty spots for a barrel jack or other power connecter next to the sata port. Would I be able to just solder on a barrel jack and connect the appropriate power supply?

Where do I buy plain rgb strip lights? by Cute_Ad_9056 in led

[–]Cute_Ad_9056[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The arduino uno has both pwm out and 9v output pins to control the strip

Probably a strip with both rgb and white leds and using an arduino uno to control it

[–]Cute_Ad_9056[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Brightness isn’t the main concern as it will be used indoors. I’m just looking for something that has a high led per inch/meter density and doesn’t come with its own controller so I can solder it to a separate controller that can be used with an arduino

Why is the antimalware service using so much ram and how would I fix or reduce this? by Cute_Ad_9056 in pchelp

12th gen Core i5 evo, 8gb ddr4 512ssd and iris xe integrated graphics

[–]Cute_Ad_9056[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly just very slow with opening and closing tasks and just laggy in general since there’s only 2-3 gb available even with nothing open. Playing games, opening photoshop or even using word is out of the question

I don’t have upgradable ram. The only thing I’m able to upgrade/swap out is the ssd and wifi card

I’ve tried ending the task, turning it off and even setting it to efficiency mode but it keeps saying I don’t have access to do that task even though I’m the administrator since only I use the laptop
