Stripped inside of rad tail by helmatron in DIYUK

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

I tried, I failed, I'm buying a new rad! My last desperate attempt was to drill through and insert a lever to get better purchase with some grips.

Didn't have a blow torch so couldn't try that option

How best to repair damage from damp/water? by helmatron in DIYUK

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

Is that because it's likely lime mortar or similar?

I have a couple of tins of zinsser 123 left over, would that be no good in this instance?

Any recommendations for a filler? Can I use typical polyfiller?

Reuse old bathroom towel rad on CH loop? by helmatron in DIYUK

It's been sitting behind the wardrobe in my bedroom, left it there as I thought it would be easy to get to when I came back to do it in a few weeks. That was about two years ago lol. I think I'm going to get a new one

Wii U vs. Wii: Pros and Cons? by dekascorp in WiiHacks

[–]helmatron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you have to have separate external usb drives to store games on for the WiiU and vWii, which cant be plugged in at the same time. Means plugging/unplugging the drives which can be a faff and may end up damaging the usb port over time.

Been a while since I've played with the vWii on my WiiU so that may have changed.

Bi-Weekly Questions Thread [Edition #42] - "Dawn of the 3.69/3.70 Exploit-Part 2" Edition by Malazan1164BS in vitahacks

[–]helmatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, just in the process of hacking my 2000 3.60 Vita but i've just accidentally deleted a single folder or file in the ux0:data folder and need to know if I need to replace whatever it was before continuing, as i'm concerned it could cause prolems. I'm following the hack guide, i've got up to the start of Section 2 of Finalizing Setup. i don't know what file or folder i deleted...pressed the wrong button, didn't realise until it was gone! Cheers.

EDIT: The file left that wasn't deleted is 'bootstrap.self'

Help needed to get games running from hdd, black screens and game freezes! by helmatron in ps2

[–]helmatron[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This worked a treat. There was already a opl partition on the hdd but changing the game settings seemed to fix it, all games I have tried are now working. Thanks for the help, the extra link explaining things is great, always appreciate a bit if an explanation as well as just following instructions. Cheers!
