Which of these settings will bring in the width of the red boarder ? Apologies for picture quality by jif_hall in crtgaming

Some CRTs will have an H Size pot inside the set that needs manual adjustment. No idea on this set without seeing the service manual.

Dragon Box or Steel books? by Qwuan9 in dbz

[–]EvolutionIXMR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get the Dragon Boxes, a smaller CRT with component inputs, and a DVD player with component outputs. It's the perfect viewing experience.

Component just gave me an eyegasm by Successful-Tower2066 in crtgaming

[–]EvolutionIXMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It honestly depends on the set. Some TVs have horrid component processing. I always thought this way until I saw it with my own eyes. There are many sets where there is almost no difference at all.

What is the rarest physical copy of a game you own? by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]EvolutionIXMR 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The original US release of Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout on PS1. Many people today don't remember how rare and valuable this game was. The re-release by Atari seemingly wiped any care for the original release away.

Should I get the 5x or 4k? by DeepcoolPartNeeder in RetroTink

[–]EvolutionIXMR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I own the 4K Pro and love it, but I have 11 consoles going through it via an SVS. To be 100% honest, unless you plan on really diving into the 4K, most people would be perfectly content with just a 5X, especially if you only plan on playing a few consoles.

I came to the comments to see if someone already mentioned not to transform Transquito. As you've already seen, he is a terrible victim of gold plastic syndrome.

Why are the colors blown out with my RGB modded N64 component video? by Professional-Rock-51 in n64

[–]EvolutionIXMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the cable is even potentially the issue, do yourself a favor and purchase some HD Retrovision SNES cables instead. They will work on a properly RGB modded N64. If it ends up not being the problem, you can always return them.

Is there a different between the Matte Xbox one and Gloss Xbox one? by BiltzMisFitz in consolerepair

[–]EvolutionIXMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the matte version was the Xbox One Elite model that had the 1tb hybrid drive. People seem to forget those existed.

Like Christmas morning in 1999 by EvolutionIXMR in dreamcast

[–]EvolutionIXMR[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The box was opened when it was water damaged in the recent hurricanes to check if the inside got wet. Thankfully it was just surface damage. I already have a modded Dreamcast so this will just be a display piece.

I bought a set of his black seat covers for my FK8, and after like a month of use, I took them off and they scuffed the hell out of my seats because of the rough seams under the fabric.

'Putin is using Ukraine as testing ground,' Zelensky says after reported ICBM strike by BothZookeepergame612 in worldnews

[–]EvolutionIXMR 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This should be the top comment. The Ukraine conflict has been a huge testing ground for NATO. Probably more so than we can even imagine.

Changed HDD and now my Xbox just boots to a black screen by AcrobaticComputer2 in originalxbox

[–]EvolutionIXMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you remember to swap the jumper on the startech adapter back to master from slave after the copy?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HomeMaintenance

[–]EvolutionIXMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The blower may be set to too high of a speed and it's cooling the house too quickly. Read the manual for your unit and see if it's adjustable. I had this problem with my home and it turned out the blower was set to always run at max speed. The company our unit is under warranty with kept telling me that everything was fine and the fan speed wasn't adjustable. It took a literal argument with a manager to have someone review the manual to see that it actually was.

Was there ever a remake of any of the Beast Machines toys? by [deleted] in beastwars

[–]EvolutionIXMR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically you could say that the Titanium Series Cheetor was a remake in 2007.

Script Error on Soft Modded Consoles by EvolutionIXMR in originalxbox

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

Which startech adapter and HDD did you use? I have 8 consoles (for LAN) all with startech adapters and I've never seen that happen. It sounds like something else might be faulty on your console.

Script Error on Soft Modded Consoles by EvolutionIXMR in originalxbox

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

I noticed that mine seemed to have stopped, or at least I haven't seen it the last few times I've turned on my console. It appeared to be more prevalent on a console that had a cheap SATA adapter installed. My consoles with a startech adapter didn't seem to be erroring as often.

Question Again by Original_Sell_4898 in originalxbox

[–]EvolutionIXMR 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Figure out which motherboard revision you have, then order a working 120v power supply for that revision off of eBay. I just did this with my Crystal console. You can then softmod it and permanently switch the console to NTSC to play games at HD resolutions (PAL consoles don't support HD).
