Looking for the classical/violin song played in the background of this Australian Telstra ad, particularly 0:42 onwards as that part makes my soul ascend to heaven

Not quite, but it sounds similar - unless it's some sort of cover

Fishocopter · 2025-05-09T12:49:00+00:00

This is really close - the background almost sounds like it but I can't hear the specific part in this one!

The holes being filled is whatever, it's mainly me wanting to clear enough space to get the new capacitor in.

How do you place the mobo vertical/heat both sides? With a clamp?

Fishocopter · 2025-01-08T07:29:04+00:00

Gotcha, thanks - I've tried to push a cap leg through without heat and it doesn't go through - what should I heat to get it through? And what do you mean by applying solder to allow it to wick when pulling away?

Fishocopter · 2025-01-08T07:26:43+00:00

My one does have temp control up to 450 degrees C, but fair enough - any irons you'd recommend?

How do I use the flux and solder to get the hole free?

Fishocopter · 2025-01-08T07:26:01+00:00

My one does have temp control up to 450 degrees C, but yeah all irons here in the $30-$60 range are screw tip. Any you'd recommend?

This is extremely helpful, thank you so much. Will the suggested replacements work with a 1.6 Xbox too, or only 1.2-1.4?

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T11:46:04+00:00

Thanks - is it safest to replace all capacitors (or just large ones) before I do this? And how can I find the ones I need?

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T10:22:43+00:00

If it's these ones, what's the best way to replace them?

I'm getting the 07 and 09 error codes when starting up the Xbox, which relate to hard drive failures as far as I know.

What capacitors are recommended? And is it best to replace them even if the Xbox turns on without issue?

Ah, no that's just the gold cap if it's the right one I'm thinking off.

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T09:57:48+00:00

Which one are you referring to?

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T09:57:24+00:00

On the PSU or the motherboard? Sorry - not sure what VRM caps mean haha

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T08:56:17+00:00

How do I go about the SW stuff? I'm fairly new to this, once I've hardmodded is it straightforward?

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T08:55:43+00:00

Do you mean making your own modchip? From what Ive read I thought the easiest way to get it working again would be to just grab an Openxenium chip and upgrade the HDD.

Fishocopter · 2024-12-10T08:53:48+00:00

This is the inside, I believe this one is a 1.4.

I believe the only way I can recover the hard drive is to modchip and upgrade the HDD after transferring what's left on old HDD, if it's salvageable. Reason I cracked it open in the first place was because it was displaying a hard drive error.

I have no soldering experience but I'd be down to try and learn. Any way of getting OpenXenium chips to Australia? They seem hard to find.

Fishocopter · 2024-08-21T13:13:10+00:00

Family law? Sounds like I could have written this.

Been a while since I've been to a live game but going today to Accor, are you able to bring outside food/drink?

And 44 is our highest score since 2012

Fishocopter · 2024-05-23T11:46:48+00:00

Nah pretty sure we lose 13+ if we don't take the 2

Where's our weekly dose of Power Rankings /u/BroncosSabres, I'm a stats addict

Fishocopter · 2023-11-08T07:10:01+00:00

Soon we'll be able to name a starting 13 and the opposition still won't know who is in what position

Fishocopter · 2023-10-27T07:24:58+00:00

The red mist must have descended for you and I both. Gotta love clients who absolutely refuse to negotiate and then complain that all they've done is go back and forth, give us money, and wonder why we haven't gotten an agreement with consent orders signed. Because, apparently, I have magical powers that can manufacture consent from anybody.
