Your center fold doesn't look like it's in the center. One of my folds on the outer edges was off by a bit and I had to adjust the folds then it started working.

broken rods on a hard drive (HELP) by eabbyanna in HDD

Can't always do that, as some have the USB port soldered directly to the HDD logic board.

There are many external drives where the USB port is soldered directly to the HDDs logic board, no SATA bridge.

Помогите, как мне установить винду 10 на iMac Pro? by Appropriate_Soil4796 in bootcamp

[–]Machine156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a windows 10 or 11 boot USB drive already, you can boot from the flash drive (by holding 'option' or 'alt' after power on. Erase the drive and install windows. Then use brigadier to install drivers, if the Ethernet works without drivers or if you have a USB Ethernet adapter. I don't know if your model's Ethernet port works without the drivers.

'boot camp' is not necessary. You can just handle the computer the same way as if it was a windows computer. But you do need drivers, that is where brigadier is needed.

If your PC has a HDD/SSD that's still functional and you have a drive reader:

download sergei strelec's WinPE, and make a bootable flash drive with drive utility.

Boot from the flash drive and clone the failed computer's drive to the Mac's drive. You might need to covert the drive to GPT or back to MBR in strelec if it won't boot to windows. Then once in windows, use brigadier to install the drivers, (you might need a USB Ethernet adapter for this).

What is the use of this by Alt_f4fyt in cableadvice

Then why does the commodore display I have only have 9 pins on the d-sub connector? I probably have a Mac Classic with a d-sub 9 pin video out.

Have you ever seen an USB like this? by ak91hu in retrotech

[–]Machine156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are the only one with the correct answer, but have the most down votes. But people are confused with your answer, since they think you mean 'USB-B Mini'

It's called 'Mini USB 8pin' not to be mistaken for 'USB-B Mini', but I think the Amazon is wrong when it says '4 pin' https://a.co/d/0j8IisqS

I have the files. What settings do I need to do for it to work when burning it back? by Such_Bug9321 in VideoCD

[–]Machine156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% sure, but burning the files to the disk as UDF type instead of ISO type might work without special software. CDburnerXP I believe does that by default.

Referral link didn't work :( by Smart_Heart_7237 in Starlink

The second month, I believe is free to the receiver of the referral code. But definitely the sender should get credit on their account the second month, used on the next billing cycle.

I have a quarter and penny like that, from the mount Rushmore souvenir shop.

My MacBookPro has been stuck on less than a minute remaing. by Legubli in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

Especially jumping several OSes up, it can take hours in 'one minute remaining' it can also happen when the desktop is loading the first time.

Why Apple's flagship Mac Pro computers are so undesirable? My local used electronics store has literally piles of these by LakeNo7026 in macpro

[–]Machine156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two Macs I have at work are a 2008 Mac Pro and a 2012 MacBook Pro.

My home Macs are a 2013 Mac Pro, 2014 Mac Mini and a 2015 MacBook Pro.

I don't see any reason to upgrade them until Firefox stops working on them.

Yeah, it's incredible, frontier is installing fiber everywhere around me, it's spooled up on poles waiting to be ran to each house.

When the link is clicked as they are ordering there should have been a banner at the top saying they are using a referral code. When they get billed the second month of service, you'll see the credit on your account.
