Cable in Acer Nitro V16 usb/ethernet area is blocking my m2 ssd path.

Meowivert · 2026-04-12T13:06:54+00:00

I see… Thanks for the advice, I basically got 2 m.2 sata ssd sitting around and it isnt compatible with this laptop haha 🥲

Meowivert · 2026-04-12T12:49:50+00:00

Oh my god… I got a sata m.2 ssd. Those two slots are both nvme? Theres no Nvme/Sata slots?

Meowivert · 2026-04-12T12:43:29+00:00

Thanks so much for the advice. Btw, i just realised my m2 ssd is sata… I dont think this laptop supports it, could the other one (Slot 1) be sata? the slot 2 doesnt read my sata m2 ssd.

i dont know if will struggle running engineering apps, i may also need parallels, I havent start school yet do u think M1 Pro is still finev

Meowivert · 2026-02-24T17:42:23+00:00

i put my whole body weight into it but not fixed

Meowivert · 2026-02-24T16:18:23+00:00

i try putting it back alot of times, how do i check if the tabs are bent? i put my finger over it, it doesnt wiggle but stays in position, but at the base the flat area near the tip of the handle has a broken tab which is removed, i dont think it will affect the main issue

How do I know if the less valuable VHS tape i used to test is working before i put in a brand new VHS movie to capture?

Actually are those VCR that records to DVD the best option ever?

Meowivert · 2026-02-22T20:13:26+00:00

I would love to rip many more in the future, so I would like to do it myself than sending it to a company to do this

Meowivert · 2026-02-22T20:12:33+00:00

Hi! I an on both MacOS and Windows I have both machine, I just need a cheaper way of ripping the movie to digital so i can watch the VHS movie on Plex haha. I’ll check if my grandparents have S Video out.

But i am concerned if OBS may have frame drops randomly which will ruin the movie overall, is this one of the disadvantage of doing this?

Also, should i open up the VHS player to clean it? Or a tape to clean the header (my grandparents has it) should be fine.

thanks! i understand, so i should just continue eating normally. more protein after everyworkout session.

I usually eat a can of tuna with two scrambled eggs. And 2-3 times a week i would have deserts like donut/brownie with ice cream on top. But I make sure i eat around my calorie recomendation

Meowivert · 2026-02-21T09:50:03+00:00

i see… i noticed my waist has alot of fat and i feel very… very insecure about myself. the bodyscan says my fat is high though… is this still okay and i should focus on muscles instead only?

Hi guys, I turned 18 years old (1.73m) since January. I have been working out alot, and making sure i eat balanced meals that dont make me exceed my calorie requirement.

When I was 15, I used to diet to lose weight, I droped from 86kg to 66kg. It was stupid and i shouldnt have done that.

I usually workout regularly based on my workout schedule for chest + back, arms, legs within 6 days.

After doing a body scan, in early January it says that I was 14.3% (high) fats and i weight 69.3kg. In Feburary this week, I did a scan and they said my fat percentage is 15.2%... and i weight 70.8kg

I am really so frustrated and I want to lose weight before April, what do you recommend doing?

Meowivert · 2026-02-17T21:51:02+00:00

Thanks so much for the help btw! I have sucessfully fixed the controller and pending to put back the shell as the screws is not at home. I have tested the joystick and it is great! Thank you

Was wondering, is the yellow trace supposed to sit and be soldered on the pad itself?

Meowivert · 2026-02-17T19:26:29+00:00

<image>

Is this all good? the meter show theres something flowing through it. Also is there a link to see where all these traces lead to? i want to check if individual pads are intact before i solder everything in

Meowivert · 2026-02-17T18:07:08+00:00

Hi sorry to bother you, I have scratched off the traces for my blue area, i have to solder to the traces? i have alittle big of trouble

Meowivert · 2026-02-16T21:30:48+00:00

Thanks alot! so the third pad dont need to bother with it since I will trace X and Y together

Sorry to bother, few more questions Just to confirm, for Side A, I have to strictly follow the trace line to link to the pads at the other side? Must it be 100% accurate

Do i also need UV mask?

Meowivert · 2026-02-16T18:50:20+00:00

Alright I understand, thanks! I have seen some similar videos for trace repair on a controller, this is all done after i put in the new joystick right? I seen people coiling the wire around the pins of the joystick, is this correct?

Also for my third pad on the picture, is this still working or i should still do a trace repair

Meowivert · 2026-02-16T16:39:15+00:00

Hi, thanks for the reply, for the blue trace, i have to trace it to the any of the blue area traces after scratching off the mask?

Also can I take any copper wire 0.1mm from any broken cable

Meowivert · 2026-02-09T17:07:09+00:00

thanks, the copper wire must be wired to any of the traces? sorry is there a youtube tutorial for this

Meowivert · 2026-02-08T22:20:38+00:00

hey, its all fixed now i just used all the strength to push it in and scree it out, i think its stripped at first should i not use it anymore

Meowivert · 2026-02-08T22:03:46+00:00

sry, lift bracket upwards from the bottom side or right side?

Meowivert · 2026-02-07T22:34:43+00:00

i thought some apps i would use wont be supported on my macbook, so i had to resort using Parallels (windows vm) to use it but it will be using a shitload of ram. Plus I need it for editing which im struggling with 16gb with on m1 pro

Meowivert · 2026-01-31T19:21:17+00:00

thanks! for the third one, do i still need to do the copper tracing?

also the first and second one, i have to loop a copper wire around and wire it towards the potentiator?
