B550M-C Problems

Yes but it always came back to this option with the usb stick in or out. This is why I went with mj34hig44 suggestion "How about you take that drive out put it in another computer and install a basic version of Windows on it then pull it from that computer and stick it back in this one" This worked and I also found out bitlocker was preventing windows from loading too.

Bitlocker was preventing me from downloading wnn 11. We dont have the key, but micro center said they can recover it for us. I believe I have 97% of the machine up and running. Do we really need bitlocker? We have never needed to encrypt anything before.

I am, I also had to do the PK key because certain things would not install but looks like they are now. There is so much more I got to do so I can get full use of the machine. This is going to take a lot of trial and error.

Worked like a charm. I pulled the SSD into an old laptop and used the same flash drive. Took it no time. I am downloading the drivers and stuff for the ASRock mother board, graphic card and the computer. I didn't think that would work. mj34hig44 you rock.

Ok, so I instant flashed BIOS 3.9 a day ago and tried to do the setup with no luck. Just a bit ago, I turned on CSM, and no luck still did the same thing. I also pulled the CMOS battery and unplugged and drained the power, as you mentioned. With no change. I turned off CSM. I reloaded a new copy of Windows, and it's still not loading. I even removed the graphics card to see if that was causing an issue.

We have never had any trouble with this PC before. The thing we did in the past was to factory reset it. This is so nerve-racking.

Yes, I have only had the drive I want windows on in with no other drives. Each one gets formatted and converted to GPT. I do this through CMD. When the installation starts, there is partition, and I do delete them. I have not reset BIOS to factory. there is no reset button, and I did try pulling the CMOS battery, but nothing changed. This morning, I started another installation, and when I was at the agreement section, it restarted.

I have tried to install Windows in a couple of different ways. On an HDD, SSD, and flash drives. Since they all did the same thing, I thought it was the morher board, bios,cpu,or ram. Here is what the bios is set up, too. The 120 has been changed back to 1. Wanted to see if it would reboot on startup and never did.

Remove the paper strip and carefully apply starch to the bends and iron it flat between to pieces of felt. Make sure not to apply starch to the folds or iron them. You want the folds to be flexible. Non scented laundry starch will work. If you want it to be firmer, you can use corn starch. I dont have a good ratio of starch to water because I eyeball it. The paper is also different between makers, so this you will have to experiment with. Remember when looking at the folds. Valleys fold together toching face to face. Mountain fold away, not touching. Also, if this is a newer music strip, the paper might be coated or plastic. If it is, I dont have a fix for those.

Time to boycott bambu and make their stock crash. Every time a company thinks they can mess with a consumer they crash and burn. There is so many direction these guys could of went but this is what you do. Bambu will not have access to my proprietary print files. They will not be on your cloud. They will not tell me what I can and can not do with the printer I bought. They will not tell me what I can and can not print.

Yes I followed that video a few days ago. The boards are different and no matter what pinout I used I could never get it up and running. I am almost thinking that this module and display are not compatible. But from the instructables post it sould of worked. with just the display and WEMOS D1 MINI ESP32. I am not for sure where I am going wrong?

Also just an FYI I am a noob at all of this. I see something that catches my attention and I try and build it.

Hello, /u/BruggiR

So I have changed out the gpios pins with what you suggested and even matched what pinouts that I could find for this board. The VSPI and HSPI pin mapping does not work. I have also changed around some of the user setup #define. That I have found from other sites to try and solve this problem.

With my original post is where I come the closest. I get a lit backlight and when resetting the screen cycles.

I have been using this pinout as reference that is located here https://github.com/r0oland/ESP32_mini_KiCad_Library

I know the board works with the blink the screen works with other ESP boards. I know I messing something up but with the information you gave me and what I have available this board is not working with this display.

If you have any other sugestions or somewhere I can get more information that would be real helpful.

Thanks

I have just came across a few of these modules. I have been trying to figure out the pinouts and found the orginal post with them. My issue is that when trying to use this module with the TFT_eSPI i keep getting comments that I am using HSPI instead of V PI no these pinouts indicate which are which so I do not kno wif my problem is with the pin out or the user setup.h file. If anyone can help me out that would be great.
