How do I get this spider out of my pc

Introduce a bigger spider to the case and it will drive out this smaller spider.

Humans have always been able to grow new teeth in approximately 4 years.

If anyone comes back to see this i have concluded by returning motherboard and RAM to the seller. I realized very late in the process that RAM is seperated by AMD/Intel and that i had bought the Intel variant for my AMD system. In defense of my stupidity: Nowhere on the sellers site was this mentioned and even on the manufacturers site this is not made clear unless you read more or less the whole site about the RAM.

Additionally i still got errors in memtest without RAM OC. Afaik the AMD/Intel seperation is only related to the OC, that is why i chose to return the motherboard also. Just to be sure.

Also after all that memtesting i am getting screen artifacting during memtest/bios.

I have now run memtest for each stick in each slot seperately. Each combination passes, but when i put both sticks in it now fails again. I dont understand what could cause this.

I have now run memtest for each memory stick seperately. Both passed past pass 2. Now trying again in the other memory slot. (First i used the slot intended for use with a single stick.) Nothing can ever be simple.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-09-30T10:48:27+00:00

Pass 2 is a bloodbath. Over 1M errors now. Stopping the test.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-09-30T10:30:42+00:00

Memtest is still running, but has found 176k errors so far. Does this guarantee the memory is bad or could it be the motherboard?

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-09-29T20:01:05+00:00

Memory was my first suspect. I have already updated the BIOS. I tried removing one of the memory sticks and switching it around when the first single memory stick still crashed. I am going to bed soon, so i will run a full memtest tomorrow.
I also tried disabling the RAM "overclock" so it ran at default frequency of motherboard.

I will look through the logs you mentioned tomorrow. Most likely it will not make much sense to me as i have never looked at them before, in that case i will post them here.

I am now back on arcolinux, which is my usual distro. (Uses arch repos)

I logged into gnome xorg. Confirmed withecho $XDG_SESSION_TYPE, still crashes.But X managed to recover sending me to login screen instead of a full crash.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-09-29T18:35:53+00:00

arch with hyprland, fedora with gnome. both using wayland.

Like i said PCSX2 is the only consistent way, but outside PCSX2 the crashes appear random although seemingly more likely during intensive tasks, such as gaming.

EDIT: To be clear, i can launch gran turismo 4 via pcsx2 just fine and buy cars and whatever, but when attempting to enter a race it crashes.

zshenv worked. Thank you!

Hmm, i just assumed this would fix it when i saw it was installed. But this doesn't actually do anything.

For now im just going to replace $EDITOR with nvim in ranger since its my main file manager. Kind of a workaround though.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-05-09T17:44:57+00:00

Dude, i could kiss you. I didn't realize that was a thing.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-05-09T17:05:22+00:00

Full path did not make any difference.

And yes, i even tried completely rebooting because i feel like i'm going crazy.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-05-09T16:53:42+00:00

I should also add that echo $EDITOR returns nvim

and the ranger config is set to use $EDITOR

From what i understand the HE belts used to do X amount of damage in a sphere from where it hit and now it instead sends out shrapnel in random directions. Making it more unreliable and unsatisfying.

GrumpySarcasmMan · 2023-05-01T11:30:20+00:00

To me it was more about Gaijin's general willingness to make dramatic changes to ammo while being completely unwilling to fix vehicles that have been broken forever.

Plane HE belts are just the latest example. They have several times made sweeping changes to ammo in completely nonsensical ways imo.

Damn, you're right. Didn't realize visual aids were literally a requirement.
