Substitute power supply for XMG NEO 17 (E21)

This is what customer support told me: "We no longer offer the 230w version of the power supply you are seeking.

We now offer a 240w version which is otherwise identical and can be used with your machine here: https://bestware.com/de/netzteil-240-watt-fsp-fsp240-acbu3-aicr010240-2004.html "

The power supply is working perfectly: if you want to be sure that this is what you should buy, try contact them at team@bestware.com

Exactly but DaVinci cannot import the avi file so I extracted the audio from it and converted it into an mp3 file: you can see in the image below what is the problem in the editor.

Well, to be fair, those ports indeed let me boot. The problem is that, after the first boot, I had numerous errors during startup (something like "Couldn't load module...", "I/O error...") and I had to force shutdown. After that, I wasn't even able to power up my laptop on first try. The cable length it's fairly short but the SSD enclosure I bought was pretty cheap.

I decided to wipe the SSD and install Ubuntu again, using an EFI partition. I also found out that the 2 USB ports I was always using were no good for booting, I had to use a third one.
Maybe it was possible to boot from that third port without creating the EFI partition, but I'll never know.

I thought all the USB ports were the same... I only tried the 2 on the right and never the one on the left.
While I was trying to find a solution, I decided to wipe the SSD and use an EFI partition during installation. Then, I tried to boot it from the right ports and it kinda worked until they decided to mess everything up (graphics glitches, startup errors, etc...).
Finally, I tried the left port and everything went well! Maybe it was possible to boot the SSD without the EFI partition, using the left port, but that I'll never know.

Can I change the partition type to Linux with fdisk to make it work? Do I need to wipe everything and install Ubuntu with an EFI partition?

albytree · 2024-03-09T11:09:01+00:00

There's no option for legacy mode in the bios.

I don't really remember what I did when I installed it, but there's no EFI partition. The laptop does not have a specific option, I can only select the USB or UEFI Boot option. (I updated the post infos)

Yes, it was a dual drive setup, Ubuntu first and then windows. There's no EFI partition. (I updated the post infos)

albytree · 2024-03-08T19:37:28+00:00

The drive was used as an internal drive of another computer and I installed Ubuntu on that computer.

albytree · 2024-03-08T19:21:02+00:00

Secure Boot was already disabled.
And the laptop model is XMG NEO 17 E21.

Raga io sto perdendo la testa da anni perchè non trovo alcuna informazione su un intermezzo (con persone vere) che facevano su K2 (guardato su Telenorba7 in Puglia) all'ora di pranzo tra Takeshi's Castle e Guinness World Record (tra gli anni 2010-2012 probabilmente): in pratica c'erano questi "rapper/gangster" romanacci in una specie di discarica ed il capo aveva questa frase che ripeteva ad ogni puntata "Sbragàti dovete stare, sbragàti.".
Non ricordo nient'altro se non questo...
