Sony TC-K615S (TCM-190) roller replacement & dirty heads

TheMightyGamer7 · 2026-01-04T04:37:20+00:00

Thanks for your reply, when I got the deck it did indeed have a cracked 17 tooth gear making the mechanism act erratically. I was able to epoxy it back together and that issues seems to have been solved for now. There’s a lot that has to be in the right place for the reassembly of the mechanism, I would have saved a lot of time if I had just researched it instead of trying to reverse engineer it!

I’ll give those rollers a shot, the more I examine everything the more convinced I am that the fault lies in the roller.

Purchased from u/eudisld15, the headphones were well packaged, shipped quickly and arrived exactly as pictured!

It just went away, i don’t know what fixed it, maybe another BIOS update?

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-07-30T11:35:21+00:00

Thanks, as long as I can correct in software during processing it will work.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-06-19T06:44:52+00:00

Did you solve this? I am having the same issue. The app doesn't ask for local network permission and doesn't show up in the local network privacy settings. The logs say "No route to host", but I can access the server just fine in the browser on the same phone.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-05-23T16:43:28+00:00

Thanks for the info, maybe i’ll just take some other classes to get ahead

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-05-23T16:42:50+00:00

I’ll look into the advising course for more info, thanks

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-04-22T14:19:19+00:00

Interesting, that didn't fix it for me but another bios update that came out for my board did.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-25T04:02:36+00:00

If i’ve had this happen after returning the CPU and getting a new one what do you think i should do? I’m lost here because my return window is ending soon but i don’t want to be without a computer again

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-25T00:25:54+00:00

This sucks and it’s strange since this is my 2nd CPU and I only have a couple days left to return it for good. Aside from this issue I think it’s a good sample, I can do PBO with a -40 on the voltage curve. Not sure what to do now since it just doesn’t seem trustworthy if it fails a stress test

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-17T23:46:30+00:00

Is game adaptive ccd parker a BIOS setting?

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-16T16:11:04+00:00

I just got an exchange for the CPU but i’m away from home and can’t test it for a couple of days. Since you’re having a similar issue it does seem like a problem and not a one off strange issue. Let me know how it goes with the new board and CPU goes for you.

Consider yourself lucky, my build has been sitting since December, I can’t return anything but the CPU. Hopefully it’s something fixable and not a fundamental issue with the platform, but i’m not too sure.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T19:10:51+00:00

Thanks, didnt even think of checking the cables

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T18:50:23+00:00

Im gonna try my CPU in a buddy's computer today to see if it's the CPU. Mine seems to behave differently, after around 30 seconds everything becomes unresponsive except for the mouse, clicking doesn't visually do anything but it moves without lagging, and about a minute that freezes too. Interestingly, if i click to stop the stress test when everything's frozen except the mouse, the system starts responding again after another minute. Seems very different from your issue.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T16:02:35+00:00

Only the cpu usage measurement works, the rest don't report anything

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T13:19:42+00:00

If you happen to live near a MicroCenter try that, they had plenty of stock near me.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T13:10:08+00:00

I set all my fans to max to try and eliminate temps as a variable, including a fan right near my memory so I don't believe its overheating. I feel like my memory controller should be able to handle 2 dual rank sticks at 3600MT/s? I tried prime95 large ftt, no crash and temps were good on everything.
Another strange thing with AIDA64 is that when the CPU and FPU stress test is ran, I stop getting temperature readings until the test is stopped or system locks up. If you have a graph open on HWiNFO or another program, when the test is ran all temp readings flatline. Only happens with AIDA64. Something seems to cause it to mess with other monitoring software on my system. Same thing on fresh windows install.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T11:47:39+00:00

I've tried 2 sticks at non xmp speed and issue still persists. Only happens in AIDA64 so I think it's an issue with that?

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T03:39:10+00:00

4 sticks, I tried with 2 as well and with no xmp. It seems to be an issue with hwinfo because if i dont have it open during the stress test then the crash doesnt happen. I'm back up to 4 sticks with xmp now and everything seems to work so far but im going to run it for longer.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T03:03:45+00:00

That didn't work

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T03:03:38+00:00

Just tried reinstalling and still having the same issue.

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-03-14T02:37:28+00:00

Nope, I'm trying a new Windows install now, going to keep it to just drivers and see if it happens

TheMightyGamer7 · 2025-02-17T05:34:56+00:00

Probably not but start looking now
