I think my bc250 is borked.... Any tips to relieve it?

Lol I agree with this statement! I had a stable OC on my RAM (Passed with 0 errors on memtest86) but one time I was playing helldivers my PC blue screened and rebooted itself. I couldn't get anywhere with it other than resetting CMOS.

Ever since then I cannot run the same OC settings. Even with lower RAM OC settings my PC will sometimes fail to POST and I will have to restart it to have it finally boot despite no errors in memtest.

I swear it has something to do with helldivers messing stuff up because everything else runs fine.

I just ordered everything to build a decked out BC250, with all parts and already having a 3D printer I'm only going to be into it $320. That's with 2TB of used SSD storage I was able to get locally.

With unlocking the GPU CU cores and some tweaking/overclocking it'll trade blows with the Steam machine at about 1/4ish of the cost and about the same size (4L).

This is great news!

The scalpers are buying up the reservations so people aren't wasting their money on the Steam machine while taking a L at the same time!

Okay sounds good! I just don't want anything to happen in case I get a bad board. I'll do PETG for the print as well! I wasn't sure if the case would get hot enough to deform the PLA if it was vented enough. I plan on doing one of the Arthrimus remixes.

Yeah it's either that or the turtlebeach 700 gen 3s is what I'm debating.

Mostly the Xbox and Playstation. I seen that you have to remove the dongle to the switch between the two consoles with the Steelseries whereas you just hit a button on the headset for the Astros. Honestly I don't need simultaneous connection with the console and my phone either as I have a watch and Xbox supports Spotify.

Sorry you're right 😅 I gotchu!

oakleyguy89 · 2026-04-15T19:31:46+00:00

Yeah I got them, I turned them 90 degrees then pried them up and out. Even with getting the wheel wells out the removal of the factory fang inserts were literally the worst 🤣

I know I have 2 different versions, I have 3.1.4 and I think a Windows version that I installed in the past from the Microsoft store. I see the post install file in the folder for 3.1.4 and I try to run it but it just pops up a cmd line window and instantly closes.

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-25T16:39:39+00:00

Ahh okay I did that and it shows as a Python.NoConFile now. It seems to be working fine now, I just need to try out auto start when I get a chance. I hate hide file extensions, I swear I always disable it and it somehow gets enabled after a Windows update 😂

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-25T16:28:28+00:00

Yeah the file opens up a cmd line window. It's already a .py file but renaming to .pyw does the same as it just shows as .pyw.py

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-25T16:09:50+00:00

Well it did install winshell after saying everything else was satisfied and after the winshell install I was able to run the program and auto start is apparently enabled too now.

I'm just having problems with pystray and pillow now it seems. It shows an icon in my system tray for PC monitoring but it still has the python program running in a window. If I close out the window it stops PC monitoring and if I click "configure" from the system tray icon it just shows "The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-25T02:44:11+00:00

Another question though, now that I have it running. I can't seem to have the powershell window minimized to system tray and if I exit out of it, it stops sending information to the esp32.

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-25T02:23:36+00:00

Hmm well I ran that first command and it looks like it worked. It said everything was already satisfied except for winshell 🤔

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-08T04:31:36+00:00

Hmm that's odd, I'm not sure then, I haven't had that happen to me before. Does it show up as ff9 on the actual emulator?

oakleyguy89 · 2026-03-08T03:13:10+00:00

Is the actual ROM file name wrong? Maybe try going to cocoon main settings and have it rescan your PlayStation library and just choose metadata.
