  1. I am currently working on a project to create a large-format camera that uses a scanner as the sensor, however, I've hit a roadblock. I thought that I'd seen some scanners previously that had the ability to scan without their lamps turned on, but I am struggling to find any that support this feature. Does anybody know a scanner that either has this feature or one that could be hacked / DIY to disable the lamp and still operate? I got a cheap cannon scanner to try and use, however, it seems to have some auto-homing feature that uses the lamp to tell when it is home, so when it's disabled it no longer functions at all. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thank you!
  2. newp. no warranty on it. got it about 5 years ago, with full accidental warranty but i think i used it too much and they didn't ask to renew, got an entire new model after a year and a half it was so bad.
  3. Hey guys, my Dell XPS just recently died from seemingly the Bios and GPU chip becoming unsoldered. I'd really like to not downgrade, so I really want a laptop with a 4k touch screen, and dedicated GPU that has a decent build. Every option I find seems to cost like 1600 to 2 grand minimum and was wondering if there is any more affordable option on the market? Thank you.
  4. Glasswire To be honest, not sure if they are so much an active sponsor any more but their website is a bit misleading with their subscription prices, listing them as "Buy" with no time period, and not making it clear that the price is a subscription.
  5. Hey yall, I currently have an x99 deluxe motherboard with an i7 5930k. I want to upgrade to 64 gb ram, so I purchased a kit off of eBay for 200 bucks, after installing it everything seemed to work fine, however after a few days my computer started to throw errors including Unexpected kernel mode trap, windows boot manager saying windows failed to start, and memory diagnostics tool saying there are issues with the memory. After this, I requested a refund and ordered a new kit, but with the new kit I am seeing completely separate errors. After getting them all installed I saw a bf/6f error code which seemed to be a memory error. I took them all out and started doing one at a time, when I did that, almost every stick showed error 53, but upon putting the old stick back in it booted fine. Eventually I was able to get one of the new sticks working, but when I put in two, it only showed one stick in windows. After some more screwing around I got four sticks to work at once, but then after installing the rest of the sticks (8 total), it went back to only detecting 2 of them. I made sure xmp was setup properly and that the bios is up to date. Am I just having terrible luck with used ram kits, or is there something wrong with the motherboard?
  6. Alright, thanks. Looking into most of what I saw on Ebay it's registered, so much for getting cheap ram
  7. I'm looking to upgrade my ram, and after looking around on ebay I saw a lot of server ram and I was wondering if this would work fine for my setup. I saw on google that sometimes ECC ram can be used with a non ECC setup, but the ECC won't be functional. I have an i7 5930k and the motherboard is an ASUS x99 Deluxe. Will ECC ram work in this setup?
  8. Actually, going back to WIFI it seems worse yet, so maybe it is a combination
  9. Okay so I just restarted and got the internet, I closed all the tabs and then opened one to give it the best shot and it worked reasonably okay, however when I opened the tabs I normally keep open (Maybe around 25 for various school, tracking, entertainment tabs) and it came back to being quite slow. The laptop I'm on has 32gb of ram so it should be able to handle these tabs fine, but maybe it is a hardware issue.
  10. I just tried plugging right into the modem, and could not get internet from it, when I tried with the router though it worked, but was still slow.
  11. I haven't yet because of the inconvenience, the throttling occurs some times and not others, so I'd have to find time to sit around my modem one day
  12. My internet has been terrible for a while, I'm using spectrum and youtube videos struggle to play in 144p. I'm paying for a 300mbps, but constantly even regular web pages struggle to load. The moment I go to a speed test website, however, it always shows 150+, even though that's not what I pay for, that's better than what I'm actually seeing in usage. My modem is an ARRIS SB8200, my router is a Asus GT-AX11000 and I use a bitdefender box between them. My laptop uses a Killer 1535 card, so all of these devices should be capable of these speeds, the only thing I could see maybe harming it is the bitdefender box, but I don't think so. Does anybody see what could be the issue? If it is the ISP throttling the speed, how would I prove this? Thanks!
  13. I'm facing an issue where USB devices seem to be disconnecting or acting up on my PC, I believe it is because there isn't enough USB resources. Would getting a USB card solve this? I'm not using any hubs, all items are plugged directly into the motherboard.
  14. Well first and foremost is Superhot if you haven't played it already, Raw Data is super good, Pavov is a CS go type game and Onward is another multiplayer shooter. Budget cuts is good. Arizona sunshine is a semi horror game but the shooting is really tight in it. And a non shooter / action recommendation is Thumper, a really good rhythm game that can be played normally, but in VR is just more immersive.
