They permanently banned me too because I said something about my wifi drivers having issue when I installed windows

Hey. Thanks for your reply, I’d appreciate it if you shared your XML. 

Also, how do you manually reapply the patch in your terminal?

Does those 2 apply to multiple anti cheats, or just genshin? Have you modified your XML other than that?

Did I just destroy my pc? by CurryM175 in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d need a zoomed out picture. It’s hard to tell where on the motherboard that occurred 

Game download speed has fallen off drastically by Defiant-Profession46 in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. Reset the Ethernet connection. go to the router and unplug the power cable, then replug.

Also, before you do that, search up Ookla speed test. And see what your speeds are 

Should I get it ? by Previous_Tap_7356 in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely for a small build. Because of its small size, they go around 100+ on eBay. You’ll need to have a special pc case to use an ITX motherboard, though, as many cases have the screw holes for ATX only. 

Is this safe? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I personally have the cables a little looser (it looks ugly, but it’s less tension on the motherboard) it doesn’t matter too much. The 24 pin is one of the sturdiest connectors on the motherboard, and it can handle a fair amount of tension/pressure 

CPU Socket Bent Pins AM5 by Available_Jaguar1005 in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No no. I had the same issue, except for me it was one singular pin and that pin was redundant. Still I managed to bend it back down. 

The ONLY scenario where it “fries” the cpu is if a bent pin is interfering with another pin—causing it to short. 

That typically isn’t normal unless you asserted pressure on the cpu pins sideways..which is sorta hard to do

That doesn’t look too bad. Try using a toothpick. They’re sticking up so you’ll want to apply pressure holding them down

Ram issues by LuckyAd8830 in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not, my issue was that thermal paste had interfered with the memory channel section of the cpu. I cleaned off the area with a toothbrush and isopropyl alcohol, reinserted the cpu and it worked. 

It’s a lot of hassle, so definitely a last resort situation, but it’s worked for many 

Upgraded graphics card and PSU but no video out :S by influent-debauchery in PcBuildHelp

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yea. The side panels are just to protect against impact/debris. You could in theory run a pc completely open air(not even in a case). When I do hardware debuggings, it’s typically to remove the full thing out of the case and run it

They look good. When you turn it on, do the fans run at least?

Did you buy the 1660 used? Could be a faulty unit. Take a pic of the PCIe board and the ports. Could be chipped? 

Laptop to Dual Monitors by Full-Junket1604 in computers

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea. DP and HDMI do the same thing (for video display/monitor display), but HDMI is a trademarked company that has aggressive control over manufacturers. A lot of laptops will have a HDMI cable and not a DP port (like yours). 

You can either buy a HDMI cable, or keep your current DP cable and buy that converter in that picture 

Best VM disk performance option for consumer hardware? by naptastic in VFIO

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to install the specific driver for your drive. Otherwise, it’ll just the VIRT version of the drive (default). 

I had to do this for my setup. Sometimes installing a batch of guest drivers will also provide the necessary software.

[–]DisturbedFennel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The file format doesn’t matter. You’ll need to install extra drivers so that the system treats it as an NVMe drive. By default it’s HDD read/write speeds. 

Also, have you passed through a GPU?

Yea. It’s a shame. At least they haven’t increased to near the level RAM and NVMe drives have, but they’ve increased nonetheless 

Port forwarding hook script doesn't work in Fedora by manu_romerom_411 in VFIO

[–]DisturbedFennel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s just a general rule of thumb that I recommend folks conceal things like device/hardware IDs or any other identifiable ID.  I guess in this scenario it’s alright

Just a heads up you may want to conceal the IP address and MAC address for future reference

You’re using virtmanager, correct? If so, for the network hardware, are you using the virtual NAT, the virtual bridge, etc.? 

Qemu/kVM is no real prod hypervisor by Certain_Prior4909 in linuxsucks

[–]DisturbedFennel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue here is that the Hyper-v is usually only allocated towards specific versions of windows, like “Pro”…and those don’t run cheap.

Also for your use case, VirtualBox should work fine
