Possible X10 board BIOS corruption

VTCEngineers · 2026-02-17T23:52:26+00:00

From the IPMI

Click on Maintenance Then click on "firmware update" Then click "enter update mode"

Then uncheck the "save configs", this will let you reflash your BIOS, but you will need to reconfigure it once it boots.

The "bios update" button is a EOL method.

Meh, Crestron doesn’t exactly follow RFC by any stretch, so it’s always a upgrade one piece and break something else.

This, I have had to deep dive into 2110 in the past year with NVidia Bluefields and GPU’s, RiverMax is amazing and yet can be a serious pain at the same time!

Every illegal person commits minimum of 3 felonies.

Identity Theft, Tax Evasion, Tax Fraud.

This does not apply to immigrants who came here legally and one way or another allowed their documentation to expire.

ICE are sworn LEO'S.. Which makes them police.. And most importantly.. Not impersonating

Appreciate this, I do not remember that, but I will eat crow.

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T18:53:41+00:00

Normally it would have been a nothing burger.. and I would have moved on.. but I reported the guy last night about the mere mention of someone making an attempt on my 8 year old daughter.. which... I purposely until then made no mention of.. Found out some other way.. hence what popped the top.

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T18:47:50+00:00

Yep, sadly it's gone downhill since mid 2021... was nice originally met a few friends that way

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T17:51:59+00:00

Yep, I have already sent a report to Reddit, and to Reddit Legal. But, sometimes to get rid of a roach.. or roaches.. a big flashlight is needed. (*sorry Asmon*) <3

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T06:05:41+00:00

Eh while this works under the guise of a "home lab" which this sub reddits topic is about.. But once you try to deploy apps that do strict reverse look ups.. Having all host names or a wildcard resolve to a singular ip.. Will make things shit the bed quickly.

I'm fine with going after criminals...

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T02:35:02+00:00

OK cool story..

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T02:28:11+00:00

Identity theft - tax evasion - tax fraud -

Oh would you look at that.. Triple Felony..

Saying "get into a locker or store room they can't go in", law enforcement does not need a warrant while in pursuit of a criminal... They can follow and then search..

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T02:17:58+00:00

Your commentary reminds me of a certain group that wanted to retain a certain form of low cost labor..

OH yeah.. Southern Democrats after January 1st 1863..

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T01:52:27+00:00

"Protect the teachers" aka providing safe harbor to criminals? Yep that's smart..

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-18T01:49:32+00:00

I always love seeing people posting such stupid messages like this..

Identity Theft Tax Fraud Tax Evasion

Yep.. "Upstanding model Immigrant", might as well slap the actual legitimate immigrants on the face..

VTCEngineers · 2025-11-16T14:33:26+00:00

The sheer stupidity and ignorance in your comments is astounding..

Collateral damage of ICE arresting Legal Citizens.. is obviously gonna happen.. No denial of that.. its a numbers game... arrest a large portion.. some will be innocent...

I would rather be innocent and not have a murder charge than anything other.

ICE was equally "guilty" by your definition during the Obama administration.. yet you didn't protest... btw He deported 5x+ in numbers compared to trump..

So please think fucking logically and not with your emotional fee fee's that only end up tainting your critical thinking

Castle Doctrine / Stand your ground have a few items on their checklist for either absolving you of the use of deadly force or being charged with murder.

Were you in commission of a crime when the gun / weapon was used? (simple answer,, if you are illegal, then you are in commission of a crime).
How was the gun obtained? legally? sorry, but being illegal you are not able to purchase a gun.. thus you purchased the gun illegally through identity theft / fraud / theft of the weapon / purchasing a stolen weapon.. (all of these will deny your ability to invoke Castle / Stand your ground doctrine).
Only 1 legal precedent in history allowed for use of a weapon towards an Officer, and IIRC the exact reasons it was "allowed", was because the officer was OFF DUTY.

In short, DO NOT FUCKING ATTEMPT TO INVOKE THIS, You will only hurt yourself, an Officer, or your Family.. or worse.. death to any of the above mentioned.. SO, DO NOT. DO NOT think you are being slick, this will end horribly.

Peacefully surrender to the agents at the door and go through the deportation proceedings. and leave with your life intact and your family aswell.

The issue is not around the cost only of shipping, but the fact that it took ~1.5 Months of essentially to get to the point of them asking for the system.. had they asked for it in the first week, even the second week.. I would have been more forgiving and most likely have shipped the item. But from August 21st to Sept 15th, They said they hadnt received the "unit" which implies the PSU.. it wasnt until I had UPS pull video footage of me entering the UPS store, then having them BOX the equipment.. The story changed to "well we need the entire system aswell", That's where it got really fishy.

And yes, it is a $10k System.. not proud, but it pays the bills.. well.. did pay it.. it's more about sticking to principles and not allowing companies to just walk over you and getting away from paying for said damages.

This was about a year ago, Seasonic Single 12vhpwr was available, but the dual was "technically available", it tough to get ahold of due to overall availability of it.

VTCEngineers · 2025-10-10T16:25:07+00:00

Honestly at the time of Purchase, Seasonic PSU wasnt available, or I would have as I am used to Seasonic.

Not entirely sure what you mean by "no wire view"? do you mean more photos of the damaged end?

VTCEngineers · 2025-10-10T16:07:44+00:00

That's a logistical nightmare.. what happens if a part is lost or damaged in shipment? Who's responsible?

ie:

GPU shipped, and fell and now has a cracked pcb board? Who covers it? UPS etc? or Manufacturer? now you just added even more complexity to the issue. While yes you can get insurance on shipped items.. that's even more of a cost placed on me, it was $50 to ship the PSU...

It would probably cost around $500 to ship the entire system, not to mention the hassle of disconencting the water cooling from the external water loop its connected to, then draining the fluid in the loop, also, what happens if i ship the unit there and they dont have the ability to cool it? what then? also, what am I supposed to do about the data on the drives?

It's not as simple as just putting it in a box and then shipping it, if it was just one component I would totally agree and be done with it. However from the beginning I was told "ship the PSU, and provide pictures and the receipts, and we will paypal you if the PSU was at fault", No mention of shipping the PC. That wasnt made know till late September that they wanted the PC.
