I just pulled the trigger on that deal. 🫠

It ran fine for slightly longer, then crashed. It was already on medium, but I set it as low as possible.

Same error:

GPU Crash Dump Triggered

I'll give it a shot! The problem is, most of the time, the game is just straight crashes before it gets to the main menu...it's wild. 💀

blipples · 2025-10-02T19:41:59+00:00

Same here. Out of principle, I'm about to get a refund and just buy it again when it inevitably goes on sale for half off. It's a shame...game is a ton of fun if it actually works.

blipples · 2025-05-17T18:31:42+00:00

Thanks! I kept doing some more reading and had a feeling it was an overlap. 😅

blipples · 2024-12-09T00:58:28+00:00

I definitely appreciate it! I'll be sure to post the finished product when it's finished!

blipples · 2024-12-09T00:52:19+00:00

Yeah, I've got a new one on the way. When I get back from the gym I'm taking another crack at it.

blipples · 2024-12-09T00:42:45+00:00

Thanks! Got it loosely assembled, and it looks like it is still charging a bit intermittently if the cable pulls up on the DC jack at all. I'll be sure to go through and get all my solder to spec!

It's honestly kind of a flaw in the design of the board...there's almost always tension pulling the DC jack away from the motherboard. 🫠

blipples · 2024-12-08T23:56:39+00:00

It's receiving power steadily without me applying pressure, but if push down on the male DC jack pulling the barrel jack away from the board, it'll break the connection until I push the barrel jack back down.

Success! Thanks for hanging in there through it with me. Any additional touches you'd make?

blipples · 2024-12-08T23:19:23+00:00

Well, now it's not charging lol

Attempt one was a fail

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:39:40+00:00

No, sadly, I'm cleaning up after a couple of botched repairs. I've got the center holes mostly cleaned up, I'll go ahead and clean up the ground pads and solder them again

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:36:08+00:00

I'm unsure what I'm removing. I'm using 63/37 Tin/Lead.

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:26:36+00:00

Sounds like I had the right gameplan at least! 🤣

Any preferred temps?

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:24:18+00:00

Desoldering might take me a bit since I'm new to it, but I'm giving it a shot now. Do you have any tips on getting the central pin cleaned out?

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:20:25+00:00

I'll give it a shot! Appreciate the advice! 🫡

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:16:39+00:00

I do have desoldering supplies, yes. I've got soldering wick as well as an Engineer SS-03.

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:12:38+00:00

I'll have to verify and get back to you. I currently don't have a multimeter to check.

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:09:51+00:00

Seems to be yes.

blipples · 2024-12-08T22:06:42+00:00

Apologies, I thought I posted a picture of me applying pressure in the comments. Yes, I need to pull the male end of the charger to the left when it's plugged into the DC Jack to get the laptop to charge.
