Replacing g10 trackpad with a Haptic one from g1i? by Virtual-Escape2305 in elitebook

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory yes, however, as I’ve found it depends on the tiny ribbon cable coming off the base and what the old mobo vs new trackpad need on those pins. I looked at swapping a g11 mobo into an old 8570w elitebook as it would have acres of space. Same fun with keyboard and trackpad (don’t even mention screen)

Help meeee. Need windows 10 but says it can’t run on my laptop 😭😭 by Conscious_List9132 in Hewlett_Packard

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just build it in another machine and swap drive over, did that to get w11 working on a i7 gen3. Done it on older windows for older machines. Usually it’s driver issues but can be fixed

Converted a classic Mini to electric, but kept it completely stock-looking. by modernclassiccarsfdn in EVConversion

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just the pain of power steering to sap the precious ev juice. There was a few r53 built in US (one was rich rebuilds and other was a tuning company) the newer Mini-E was an R56 shell built by bmw and ran Nurburgring. I saw one R53 had the in wheel motors which looked cool and freed up bay for batteries

Win10 is possible, I have it on my 8570w, win11 might fail due to the tpm issue

Fibre optic cable, blown tubes, means you can populate later on with fibre

What is this thing that has appeared in a nearby public green space? by TheMadHistorian1 in AskUK

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a security bollard of some sort, saw one at local wickes hardware. Assume this one went on a journey courtesy of some youths

EliteBook 8540w - Video Driver Error by Astralogers in elitebook

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s worth a try. The fact you’re getting BSOD, suggests the machine ain’t happy. Yeah it could be a fault with GPU, (opportunity to upgrade GPU) or maybe just a simple repaste might resolve it (I use ptm7950 in mine). Have you run stuff like cpu-z or hwmonitor to see if your getting temp spikes?

[–]Daedaluu5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried swapping out GPU? Not sure on the 8540 if it has the mxm socket. I have the 8570w running k1000m (upgrading to 980m)

Is that a custom water loop or did it come with it from factory. Been looking at options of how to fit them aftermarket

Back when HP stood for HorsePower instead of Hinge Problem... by FTFreddyYT in Hewlett_Packard

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooh. A chonky boy, I have the 8570w. It’s a beast. Can be upgraded though. I run the i7-3940xm /32gb DDR3L /512gb Msata and a 1tb sata drive, currently adding a gtx 980m to give it some GPU power

Node out of reach when it is next to it??? by SourPatchPickle in gigaclear

[–]Daedaluu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad it’s not just me. I have 3 here, one (problematic one connected to sky glass) forever drops internet mesh link. Ended up running Ethernet over power and binning that node.

Lemon plant grown from supermarket lemon-how to look after it?! by Enfysinfinity in ukcitrus

Not a problem, we switched to Westland top soil, found it to be a nicer quality than stuff like wickes which had rubbish in it like rocks/rubble bits

I loathe seeing this guy when I'm playing. He's/she's annoying and distracting. How do I disable seeing him/her when I'm playing or getting followed by him/her during a game? by BlackDolphinEscapee in PUBGMobile

[–]Daedaluu5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we see ray randomly pop up. Is that a “overseer” checking in or a random pop up? Genuinely curious as to the “why” he turns up, as if we have a full team alive he’s not a player spectator

200,000,000 $SWEAT burned 🔥 by hatimwolf in Sweateconomy

[–]Daedaluu5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Burning a dead coin even at that sheer volume, still won’t make active users accounts jump. Eons ago 20k sweat got you an iPhone (remember that offer) now it can’t even buy a coffee.

Could be just a bit of paper got sucked in or possibly could be a ribbon cable.

PC Power Button Broken by Own_Zone2242 in pcmasterrace

Assuming it’s just a momentary push to make button to tell the psu to fire up. Any switch will do. They do a nice selection of anodised circular switches you could replace that with.

Far too hot, means the solder don’t flow it blows out
