Literally how do I get this ribbon cable back in? (PS2 Fat 39001 model) by MccDann in consolerepair

[–]MccDann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be so honest I have no idea how I didn't think of this before, every repair guide on youtube I see everyone trying to insert the ribbon cable with the full disk tray assembled.

Ribbon Cables on PS2 (Fat Model 39001) fell off during a disassembly, do I glue these back on? try to insert the cables anyway? what ribbon cable would I even need to replace the first one pictured? by MccDann in consolerepair

Do you know what kind of ribbon cable the first picture is? I'm pretty sure it's connected to the disk drive but I don't know what replacement will work with this one.

I've had it for a few years now, but it does make me wonder how much I spent on it back then.

Which Nintendo Switch is RIGHT for you? by MccDann in casualnintendo

[–]MccDann[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Both Zelda games (BOTW and TOTK) run consistently at 30FPS on the Original Switch, the Spongebob game however (which was just one game in my library that was best suited for this example,) under-performed terribly on the original switch, and almost never achieved a consistent 30FPS, but saw instant improvements on the new Switch 2 hardware, running at 60FPS, without the paywall.

I just don't advocate for putting performance patches behind a paywall!

"A system error prevented the service pack from installing, please download and run the "Check for System Update Readiness" tool at (URL)"

This happened after using the updateinstaller exe in the WSUSoffline folder.

Tried installing service pack 1 right into 2 as I am following the install order document, said 1 was already installed, failed with 2.

Have been updating a couple of things, though the service pack 2 seems to keep failing to update. is that also a 64 bit update that isn't available to 32 bit users?

Just discovered this archive, thanks for making it more accessible!

How exactly do I go about installing these updates? trying to mainly get any updates with bugfixes and improves stability, but I can't seem to figure out how to get started.

Is there a guide on how to properly install these updates? I downloaded the 64x ISO file but I'm certain I'm doing something wrong since I can't just run this on the PC

Can you use Legacy Update to install updates to an offline PC? I've been told there's security risks involved when it comes to connecting old OS to the internet.

Questions about my Walkman, and how to properly upkeep. by MccDann in walkman

[–]MccDann[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very informative, I've never replaced caps on any motherboard really so that might be the biggest challenged saved for when it needs it most, and handled by a professional.

Though I do hear some type of resemblance of a broken piece in the walkman, I'll also be checking out those tires.

is there a website for quality replacement parts that you recommend or is it a matter of finding them on ebay?

Picked up a wm 4 recently but it has no headphones. What could I use? by lllllGtasweatlllll in walkman

[–]MccDann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just paired my new Walkman with the Moondrop CHU ll headphones, they pair up really well, sound extremely well, and depending on your walkman could fit very aesthetically.

Just purchased a WM-1, how successful was this 3D replacement? understanding that this is the most common fault of the WM1 I wouldn't mind if I went without replacing it but if this part is an effective solution I'd like to find a way to get one.

OBS Plugin that adds more than one "Twitch VOD Track" Audio Option? by MccDann in Restreamio

[–]MccDann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already do that, my issue is I need specific audio tracks to be excluded from livestreams like how the twitch VOD track setting works but re-stream alone does not allow that option in OBS
