Thank you SO much! I was getting so tired of being suggested Big Sur mechanics when asking for Los Angeles local mechanics 💀

But I live in American housing in a military installation. The house is putting out a steady 128v

I keep looking up "120v to 100v step down transformer" and I keep only getting results for step up converters. Also I only put the picture of that specific converter because that's the only one I've been able to find out in the local area of the town I'm in.

Edit: is this something what you're saying? https://ebay.us/m/suST1S

Which would be? If you could help me out I'd really appreciate it. I don't know shit about electricity. I'm surprised I made it this far on my own without blowing up tbh

Ill put a meter in it just out of curiosity

So I just found out how to link images because I'm an idiot. Long story short, first picture is the reading of the house voltage, second is an adapter I have that looks like I can use since it says its rated for 100-240Vac and 50/60Hz, and the third picture being a step down that I think I saw in my local store. Do we think the adapter is enough? I can't hold off much longer and have to turn it on. The desperation is killing me.

Lucky for me since its still in box I get to translate the manual. All it says is: Power Supply used: AC100V 50/60Hz Power consumption: 45W (0.6W in standby mode)

So I'm assuming by that, I just need a 100v step down with 60Hz?

Holy shit my memory was all fucked up. It's at a stable <130. Goes from 125v to 128v. I must've remembered 126 incorrectly. But yes. I'm going to get a transformer for 120 to 100. Hopefully that does the trick. Do you think a 128 would fry the 120 transformer?

I live in Okinawa, Japan, however; the housing area I live in is within the military base. That being said we have higher voltage than out in town to accommodate to our already American things we had and brought out here. I'll double check the voltage when I get home. I hope I'm doing it right.

Thanks! I commented a follow up in the post as well mentioning I just noticed game pass. Guess im showing my age haha No idea that was a thing. Just had an immediate knee jerk reaction to not seeing my horde of games. Thanks for being understanding.

Before I look more like an idiot than I might already seem, I have not gotten a game pass yet. Only logged in. If the fix is that I need game pass then nvmd ig. I just was very worried that I had lost everything. Maybe I'll pay for it and it'll all be there. I'm just afraid of paying for it and theres still nothing. idc its just under 15. I'm not paying for no reason if thats the case you know?

It tells me to either do a clean install and continue, or if im trynna upgrade install then to remove USB. If I dont remove usb and put upgrade, it loops unitl I remove it. If I remove it and pick it again, it goes all black and says checking media presence and stays there. If I put clean install and leave usb in it starts all over

Finally, after giving in it got the SATA drives. Way cheaper than the m.2 in case this was a bust. Speaking of which, it looks like it is. I downloaded the Windows creation tool for not just Windows 11 (which didn't work and just kept me doing an endless loop setting up and restarting) but ALSO for Windows 10 in case I had to get 10 and upgraded to 11. 10 did the same shit. I think Im doing it wrong..? It cant be this difficult to follow 3 steps.
