+OLD CS1 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 UPDATE - It was weird, even after re-installing the driver it still did not work. Only after physically unplugging and re-plugging the speakers back in did they start to work. Let me guess, Realtek audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOME AUTOMATION Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 My GIGABYTE custom sys. using realtek is realannoying with the 1/8" socket switch detection routine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Let me guess, Realtek audio? Yup, it's the Realtek. I'm not using the PC's other sound card built into the Nvidia graphics card because my monitor does not have it's own speakers, so I just plugged the Bose speaker I bought into the back. For what I do, it's more than adequate. Is that a common problem with the Realtek driver in Windows 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Yup, it's the Realtek.

For what I do, it's more than adequate. Is that a common problem with the Realtek driver in Windows 10? And so on back to Windows 3.1.... I used to call their little crab icon a warning logo. They've gotten MUCH better for reliability and audio quality, but they still work on the same concepts. The plug detection is nice for an occasional connection, but kind of frustrating for a permanent one. Sometimes you just want it to take your word about what is plugged in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 And so on back to Windows 3.1.... Good to know, thanks Tursi. It's working again so I can live with it. So far there is only one thing that is not living up to my expectations, on the new computer, but I suspect the Debut Video Capture Software I'm using rather than the speed of the computer because I barely hit 15% on CPU usage and 28% on RAM & SWAP usage during capture.

AMenard Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Somehow one of my 64GB USB memory sticks got write protected. I'm unable to format the thing and am unable to figure out how to remove the protection so I can reformat it. (sigh) Open disk manager and check the drive number assigned to the stick open cmd start diskpart type select disk # where # is the number of the drive you got in the first step type clean open disk manager again and partition stick and format it Beware you'll lose what is on it.

Would this procedure restore the write cycles to the original settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 Thanks, I'll give this a go once I find it again! Go figure, I'd misplace now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMenard Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Would this procedure restore the write cycles to the original settings? probably not but it would eliminate any problem due to error in the partition table and security since those command will totally wipe those.

Omega-TI Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 This is of course off-topic, but it seems cool! Have you worn out multiple micro USB connectors on an otherwise perfectly nice, and sometimes more expensive cable? Want a way to eliminate the hassle, and wear and tear? If so, check out << THIS LINK >> I'm wondering if it'll work with Android Auto as it say's, "only one side supports data transfer for android device". Anyone here have any first-hand experience with this cool little little gadget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitkraft Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Had an interesting garage sale find today. I pretty much never find classic video game stuff in garage sales anymore and Ive never found TI stuff. In an otherwise uninteresting one today I found a handful of Atari 2600 carts (Dig Dug being the least common) and a bunch of 99/4A carts which was a big surprise. Got these: And what might turn out to be a steal was this one (which Im not familiar with but appears to be rare): Cant find any completed sales though so I have no idea of its value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Frog Jump is probably worth about $10 to $15 with that label. You also got one other HTF cartridge. The Othello cartridge you got has the purple label, which is not at all common. It doesn't pop the value up any, but they are much harder to find than the other two label variants. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitkraft Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Thanks! Somebody on eBay is a little optimistic with the only for sale Frog Jump I could find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
