Dynamic as in it'll switch between pre-composed tracks based on the situation, like how it works in tie fighter...and pretty much every game in this century

That being said, windows 11 for the last couple of months, did a have a bug that erroneously warned about Core Isolation being disabled

copy protection probably won't be an issue when capturing digitally. it was designed to flub up tape to tape, not direct digital capture.

the best that VCR could have would be component out, maybe SCART if its an import.

if it did have something that wasn't an RCA or s-video jack it could have a serial port for being controlled - but that would be pro-level equipment

S-Video only gets you around 480i or 720 × 480. With the USB you'll get to capture all the little speckles and analogue artifacts. Something cheap like this would probably work with all your tape devices: https://i.imgur.com/33h2kvw.png but there are more adapter choices than that, if you check the ...

ideally, its the tape player line out to your audio device's line in.

analog mic and head-phone jacks are pre-amped assuming the devices being plugged into them are un-powered - you don't want to use those. but you can in a pinch

if your primary concern is photoshop and lightroom, have you considered a mac?

What the context... just replacing a CPU?

this is the kind of thing server racks are made for.

I have no gaming performance issues with windows 11

I wouldn't be surprised if the issue starts in the screensaver itself. so, to avoid burn, I would just have the monitor power off and suffer thru the gsync stupidity.

Hello fellow modern ASUS MB owner! Fan control and whatever BS armoury crate installs are probably fighting... That is holy BS, disable auto-installation from the bios and purge it from your system. Fan control and open RGB for your led strips is much lighter. I'd just use the fan utility(qfan) in ...

they might've overloaded the power LED to also act as the HDD access...

thats a 45 million pixel sensor: if you want details when zooming in, you need to be turning down the compression on jpegs or just use the raw files. the dimensions of the images are closer to 8,256 × 5,504 right? also be aware that there is an upper limit of detail you can get at a given distance. ...

concentrate on getting the data off ASAP. one or two bad sectors isn't bad, provided they are not multiplying.

No, it still has performance issues, the only difference is the consoles have capped framerates. Which is par for the course for from software.

It wasn't ported, its a first party release on PC regardless.

maybe I should ponder under-volting my 2070 super

The main motivation is probably pushing people to upgrade their hardware - mainly for Intel's Adler Lake CPUs. Windows 11 currently isn't available for retail purchase - its OEM only atm. TPM 2.0(which includes dedicated hardware and firmware running a secure area in the CPU) is a convenient, non ...

I can see MS loosening the hardware restrictions on win11 as uptake continues to be flat

Having testing it for the last few months, I'd wait till the first biennial update myself

I like the ray tracings.

this reminds me of what was happening with my old 486: the culprit was the power circuit it was plugged into, maybe there was too much load on the hole circuit, I can't remember, running a power cable to another circuit solved that.

unplug your mouse and see if it goes to sleep.

you can google the usb device id's to get a better idea of which device it is, they all look to be related to gaming devices.

fliptw

you are at the point where there is no difference between power off and returning from sleep.

Do you mean when you go to the start menu, and select sleep and it doesn't sleep? or you select sleep, walk out of the room, come back in and its up and running?

I would too also suggest looking at a Ryzen 7 3700x.

and unless you are getting that 2070 for dirt cheap, I'd look at holding off till nvidia launches their new cards.

Also drop the DVD drive...

Adata has some nice nvme's

the chromium based broswers are also adopting it DNS over HTTPS. it really should be opt-in

there is only native support for the DS4 in steam and whatever software Sony has for playing PS4 games remotely.

Sure that covers most things. but its not a plug and play x-input device.

you'll end up with a windows 10 install regardless, and if its not activating, and that bugs you, easy enough ways to address that

what is your current router atm? if its compatible, open source firmware would let you boost the power, get more range that way. Also, where is it currently in relation to the rest of the house?

you could just look at wireless extenders too.

fliptw

you can do that in the installer, do a custom install.

no driver updates on the brother website?

have you ever, when printing from firefox, actually told it to print from the main tray via the printer preferences?

Was the issue formatting the hd from the windows 10 installer or putting the installer onto a flash drive?

fliptw

so right clicking the drive in explorer and selecting format doesn't work?

Lets also assume windows won't let you format the c drive while windows was booted off of it.

my motherboard, bought in 2012, has had support for nvme booting since 2017. the worst case he needs a bios update and a riser card. Even without the ability to boot, there is still benefit from having an nvme.

I have the same, but smaller drive as Pumo, and recently put in an nvme drive. and I think these two pictures tell the tale: as-ssd-bench ADATA SX8200PNP 3.16.2019 3-42-14 AM.png as-ssd-bench KINGSTON SV300S3 3.16.2019 3-40-56 AM.png if you where inclined, you can't go wrong with an NVMe drive as ...

also check any noise cancellation/reduction features as well.
