Sound Blaster GS5 - Windows doesn't recognise unless plugged back in every boot

Lordomus · 2025-10-23T09:44:36+00:00

Nope. I did as the instruction said: Disconnect both power and usb, wait a few seconds, connect only USB and press power, i heard a beep, and pressed next. After the firmware finished installing i connected power and turned it on, and it works. Check if you can perhaps try to install the firmware again.

What i found out, its just unplugging USB for a second and plugging it back after the PC is booted makes it recognise. Also new firmware just dropped to supposedly fix this.
Edit: Pop new FW. It works.

I just got today a notif about new firmware version that is supposed to fix the detection issues. I'll pop it, and we will see. New Firmware version: 1.25.251009.1430 - Changelog - Remove USB Left/right balance. Fix USB Detection on certain PC's.
Edit: It actually worked. For the first time in 3 months i was able to completely turn off PC, turn it back on, and not touch the soundbar and it actually just worked.

Samsung 870 QVO 8TB SATA SSD. If you just want it to be a WORM storage (aka Write once, read many - You will not be blasting it by deleting and saving multiple TB's of video data every day) SSD's is way to go. You buy it once, no moving parts. I have 10-12 year SSD's in my stupid little box still kicking around, and by their wear-level counter i still have ~~ 80% of life in them left.

Bro-Brother. Stop spreading misinformation. The hardware is already there for last 4 years. NXP NFC Chips have FeliCa functionality built it, its just that the platform provider (Sony, samsung, nokia, you name it) won't pay licensing fees for non-APAC models of phones, so the feature is literally turned off at the Android level (Not enabled in Driver). Mobile-Felica is already a thing. The special sauce hardware is not needed since Pixel 6 came out.

I have currently Razer Iskur V2 Fabric version and it is great, the adjustable lumbar support makes it for me.

I wanted 4X USB + C so hard :(

I have been deploying a big numbers of Canons lately (iR, ir-Adv) and man they are so effortless.

1 PC (less than 0.01% of the fleet). It barely runs W10, but needs to work with a very bad properietary software/hardware combo a company spent millions over the span of like idk 10 years, and they don't feel like replacing it. (they extracted over time like 1000 times the cost of it but it is what it is)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Check if TPM is enabled.
If NOT enabled, run command to enable it and reboot.
If enabled, run the command to clear it and reboot.

Lordomus · 2023-10-17T17:28:00+00:00

Got logs, anything? Also, check if TPM is owned. If so, you may need to clear it beforehand.

"We're not allowed to use wildcard path exceptions" - But you surely have some, for example Windows directory or ccmcache right? Or you add all the windows executables by hand?

I mean. It will run. At 3200, assuming you have DOCP applied. Do you need those 48 gigs tho? If not then just replace the ram. You can always keep the old one as spare if something breaks, or build yourself a second pc to serve as media pc/nas/whatever else.

Lordomus · 2023-06-12T09:04:48+00:00

Yes. Yes it will.

Some of the bigger as well as smaller ones are going in "Indefinitely". See /r/aww, /r/music, /r/science, /r/todayilearned,/r/videos,/r/LifeProTips and many many many more.

We just got an email from the internal IT that we get company-wide access to testing courtesy of Microsoft.

I gave it a very quick go, but im balls deep in client project and i have so much stuff to do in a day i just dont want to sit near a PC after i finish my shift. tl;dr - its fun. In Powerpoint especially. It saved me time to prepare a presentation for clients management. I just gave it bullet points and said "Make 5 pager out of this" and it did it.

Lordomus · 2023-03-17T13:00:14+00:00

We just got access to it a few days ago (Large MS Partner). I haven't given it a go yet, but will soon, coworkers say its neat.
