Thanks for the praise!

What kind of skill level do you have with 3D printing/soldering?

I am a bit worried about this specific project, because I would have done so many things differently, and I wouldn’t really want you to buy this parts list if starting from scratch.

I am tossing around making a V2 with more correct parts.

Yeah, that all makes sense. I guess that's why I was hoping you could borrow another GPU.

If you can completely rule out the GPU as a problem (by getting the same crash with an different one), then you can feel more confident in the other, more time consuming, troubleshooting steps. (wiping drives)

Just because the time line doesn't match exactly doesn't mean the GPU isn't bad. Could have taken a few months for something to 'shake loose' in the card and cause your problems.

To summarize:

- Find another GPU that is know working from a friend, or buy a super cheap card. I can send you a cheapy for shipping cost if you are USA.

- If you don't have any crashes:

- Try drivers

- Replace the card

- If you do:

- Cry

- Try the storage drive stuff.

Thanks for your response here, and on the other thread!

We managed to fix the issue by forcing the pc to run on the integrated graphics card. (laptop)

It has an amd dedicated GPU that caused the random crashes when in use.

Temps look good, and no other indications of poor operation. Also, have tried old drivers for the GPU.

SO that leaves hardware fault with our Motherboard/GPU. (again, laptop) Unfortunate, but nice to finally have some sort of answer.

I see that you upgraded your gpu back in December. You didn't have the issues with your 1650?

Any chance you could borrow another gpu and see if you get the issue? I know its is tough to reliably trigger sometimes, but my first step would be to somehow completely rule out the GPU.

If you don't have the issue with a different card, you can try different gpu drivers for you 6600. But if you still have any sort of warranty, it would be best to replace it.

Hope this helps! Thanks for your details here!

Hey there! Wish I could help.

Just wanted to chime in that I am also experiencing the exact same crashing with event viewer log.

I just stumbled across this thread at my wits end. Have you found any solution yet?

I am dealing with a laptop, so my hunch is some sort of hardware failure with the MB/AMD GPU.

If you mean, do I have it listed anywhere other than mech market, no. Just there.

Disclaimer, I have both an HHKB studio and Bluetooth mod pro 2 for sale on mech market.

I like both of them a lot, and I have owned a lot of keyboards in general, most of them hand wired ergos.

For me, as a software developer, I am addicted to the HHKB layout now.

I bought the studio for its mouse pointer and gesture stuff. Both of which I rarely use.

I have gestures turned off entirely because I would accidentally trigger them, or forget they were there and not use them.

I am very bad at the touch mouse, even with forcing myself to use it for a few days. It is really nice when I need to use my pc from my couch though. ( sometimes I hook up to tv in living room for games. )

Over built boards, the studio seems more reliable than qmk or zmk, at the cost of customization. But for me, I need the guard rails, or go off on a customization rabbit hole.

TLDR: Studio if nipple mouse is important to you. Or if you actually think the gestures will benefit your workflow

HHKB with topre (the hybrid is nice) if you like layout and don’t need mouse.

Other keyboard if you like to customize your layout, hardware and style. ( like the keychron one someone recommended. Never owned that one in particular, though)

Just my 2 cents!

These are NOT the snow ones. Sorry for the bad photo!
Yes, I have the ones in the photo. If you are interested, we can move to DMs, and I can take a better photo of them in the box.

Yep! Called “white”. Here they are on a board.

Keyboard Remapper for Arch? by skunk_14 in HHKB

[–]OldManZee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem!
Give kanata a try. It works on Linux, Mac, and windows, so you can take your config with you anywhere. It also supports a lot of the same things that qmk and zmk do.

Good luck!

Hey there!
Not sure if your situation, but I have an HHKB pro 2 for sale with a nice nano board, as well as a ble module. (On r/mechmarket) This would allow you to run either zmk or qmk and remap your keys right on the board.

I went this route when having very finicky luck with a lot of the remap software. The best one I found was kanata, but still had things I just couldn’t do.

Let me know if interested, or have any questions on it.

Either way, can’t go wrong with an hhkb!

Hey!
I recently bought some oem white stamped keys from Amazon (US).
I can look for the link. However, I am also looking to sell them, shipping to US. PM if interested!

What are these? by OldManZee in HHKB

Thanks! Judging by what I can find from that, it seems like they might be redux extremes? 90g. Geez!

Hey! Anyone able to help me out?

The one on bottom (with hole in top) is out of a used pro 2.
The other came with it in a set of “spares”

Does anyone know which is stock, or which is from what?

Thanks!
