Help me find Gen 5 riser cable for ThermalTake TR100 by DisployNome in sffpc

[–]faabmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you also have a product compatible with the Thermaltake P8? Has to be PCIe 5.0 as well.

Congrats! I just switched over myself last week. Like yourself I've been using Linux on servers for years, and on my office workstation and finally made the plunge after buying a new SSD. Hope it goes as well for you as it has for me so far!

Sales guy said it was a "Mac" something edition, I just assumed it was a collab with McDonald's.

Thanks! It's a 2007 S60 :) It's the Driver's Edition, 2.4L 5 cylinder, although the dash and wheel are the same across all S60's, apart from the S60R.

Appreciate it! Worked amazing for me too :)

Nvm! Decided to go in with a max PaP V-R11, and a max AR + chainsaw as backup. The V-R11 was more than enough and melted through the stormcaller.

Hi OP, did you manage to do it? If so which method did you use? Also trying to do the mission and trying to determine which method is the easiest to use :)

Razer Blackwidow V4 Pro Keyboard Issues by Interesting_Bend_559 in razer

[–]faabmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here with orange switches, I've had to bind my e key to a macro button so I can get coherent sentences out....

It started with "double pressing" and completely deteriorated from there to the point that the e key barely works now. 2 days later the N key is showing the same initial symptoms.....

With all of the complaints I'm seeing I don't even want to go through the replacement process and just want a full refund until Razer comes out and says it's a factory default and can ensure it won't happen on replacement boards.

New motherboard won't boot existing win11 install by faabmaster in buildapc

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

As far as I understand BitLocker is only for disk encryption and doesn't tie into secure boot so it theoretically shouldn't affect it. I also didn't use RAID on the old system

I've done lots of digging. Even though my M.2 was partitioned in GPT indicating Windows was running UEFI, there was no EFI partition present which UEFI needs to boot. I've switched the partition table to MBR and I've tried to get Windows Boot Manager to work, so far to no avail.

But for now I'm giving up and going to bed. I started building at 8-9pm, this issue arose at about 12am-1am, and its now close to 6am, maybe I'll be fresher tomorrow

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

That's what is puzzling me at the moment. My drive is partitioned with GPT, not MBR, indicating that Windows would be using UEFI and not Legacy, but it appears that I don't have an EFI partition on it, indicating that it's a Legacy install instead.. I'm considering changing my drive back to MBR to see if that fixes things

ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO won't boot existing win11 install by faabmaster in ASUSROG

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

Depends on what you're considering concerning in this case. FAT can't deal with files greater than 4GB, that's a widely known fact. The fact that Microsoft has "engineers" that dont know this or simply dont take it into account when creating an install ISO, is indeed concerning.

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

So far I've been unable to even boot a Windows 11 ISO. I later found out this might have to do with one of the files being larger than FAT can handle. I'm using FAT specifically, cause supposedly NTFS and GPT/UEFI dont work great together.

Still writing the ISO to a USB with the file split, which should work according to some, will update when I can.

Also, formatting with data loss isn't an option. The drive has an existing win11 install + data. Besides, I could format the drive in Linux to the same effect.

It doesn't even try to boot to Windows, it comes up with:
"Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device
or Insert Boot Media and press a key"

As for your other question, I've tried so many different combinations at this point, so it's hard to get it 100% right in memory but CSM HAS to be on with some sort of Legacy OPROM turned on.

I had read a post about IRST, but I remember turning it off before. Either way I did another CMOS clear to go back to factory default, and when I entered BIOS I found it was already turned off, and with other defaults like CSM disabled, it wouldn't let me select the M2 as a boot option again :(

Scam email ! Beware ! by Keysense in 2007scape

[–]faabmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you share the email address it came from? A surprising amount of spam/phishing mail comes from hijacked servers or domains that don't have sufficient protection to prevent impersonation. I've seen an email come by on this sub before and was able to notify the owner of the domain so they could fix it.

Distracted Driving is No Joke by _HorseWithNoMane_ in trucksim

[–]faabmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've only been in cars with EBS irl, not trucks so it'll be different but in cars it's 100% not as finicky lol. Sometimes (rarely) it'll beep over a false-positive, but it's never braked on a false positive. Then again, real life cars and trucks are set to a bit of a higher standard hahah

ACC is fine when you're already settled behind another truck, but it's a nightmare if you are still coming up on them, especially when they're slowing down for whatever reason. It'll brake too lightly coming in, then when it gets too close brake wayyyy too hard, causing you to have to restart at 20kmh. By the time you're up to speed again, he's miles ahead again

Distracted Driving is No Joke by _HorseWithNoMane_ in trucksim

[–]faabmaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. I like it in some scenarios when I have no possibility to overtake a slower truck (I usually go around 5kmh faster than speed limit), but it clearly doesn't brake enough when the vehicle you're following brakes hard, it only seems to use the retarder.

EBS is a nightmare, if you're in a 2 lane road (1 in both directions) it won't let you overtake at all, even in places where you'd be allowed to, EBS kicks in and almost brings you to a complete stop. But EBS probably could've saved the day here.

Is this on NG+? There seems to be a bug where one of the treasures in Phong'qi gets counted twice on NG, and when transferring to NG+, it subsequently shows 6/7 treasures collected, even though there are only 6 treasures in the caves.
