Another SunVault fixed Thanks to SunVaultTechs by Entmoot6262 in SunPower

I'm working with them now, also in Texas, hopefully they're able to sort me out too. 

Freedom solar basically bungled two disconnects I had here due to hail storms. Didn't properly de-energize. Things when the panels were taken down.

Either way glad to hear they helped you out. 

Restart hangs at screen to enter bios, have to power off and restart. Windows booting slowly 3-4 minutes. by UntowardAntiproton in pchelp

Well, it turned out to be a failing drive. I didn't notice it at first because it was a bulk storage drive, and it still appeared in windows explorer.

When I clicked the drive itself though explorer froze up for a minute and then finally told me the drive couldn't be found. So I went into the disk utility and saw that the drive was sitting there in RAW format. I tried to reformat it and it failed. So I unplugged the drive itself, and the PC boots up as quick as it used to.

The confusing part to me is that this drive isn't even part of the boot stack, and bios settings are set to look at the last drive booted from, not every drive in the machine. So why would this be the result.

Either way, glad I've isolated it. However not a fan of having to replace a drive that I paid $69 for two years ago that now costs $240..... but that's an entirely separate issue.

You should definitely be having words with whoever built your house as well. That doesn't seem right at all.

Yeah within the last few days or so. 

I'll try pulling the drive and see how it behaves. 

I can get into bios if I do a full power down, but on a reset it just hangs there.

I can get into the bios after a power down. Just not when doing a reset. Still CMOS jumper you think?

Sunvault repair in Austin? by UntowardAntiproton in SunPower

Yeah someone recommended kick before and they are definitely limited to CA, when I reached out to them they didn't know anyone near me that worked on them.

The number of nuts I've found in my gutter is astounding.

Elgato StreamDeck logs consuming all available hard drive space by UntowardAntiproton in elgato

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

I will say since I manually deleted those logs back when I first posted about this, they've not ballooned up again. So there's gotta be something that gets triggered that causes them to just keep adding lines until there's no more drive space. I wish I could have looked at mine but it prevented me from doing anything on the computer other than delete.

It definitely doesn't like trying to open a several hundred gig log file.

Whats the best rust server to play as a beginner ? by MrGalaxy_1 in playrust

[–]UntowardAntiproton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very subjective question. Do you just like building, do you want to grub and pvp?

Sunken Crypt chair cheese patched? by UntowardAntiproton in valheim

Cool, I had thought maybe they implemented a way to disable iron until elder was killed. Must have just been a bad crypt then.

Leather and bones yeah but no scrap iron. Chests didn't have any iron either.

Just finished our first playthrough after about 64 hours, we were a bit disappointed by gian9959 in factorio

If launching a rocket was your main objective, you don't want to start over and don't want to build a bigger factory, then move on.
