  1. nope it will boot with default vmware settings for x64 windows 10, just give it at least 4gb ram and a couple cores, i didnt try with other vm software
  2. tried that first, caused more of a headache that it was worth. Im just familiar with clonezilla and this seemed like an easy way to do it. Sure there are others that have worked out how to do it but not many, plenty of people asking how to get this working on hardware
  3. Just thought id make a quick post about this, im sure im not the first to work this out, but you can get the leaked windows 11 ISO running on actual hardware fairly easily using clonezilla. Install the dodgy ISO into a VM, then once its installed, clone the virtual drive with clonezilla, you can easily do this by putting the clonezilla ISO into a virtual dvd drive on the windows 11 VM and mashing the boot select button to get into VMware's BIOS and boot into clonezilla (you will need an external drive that you can pass through to the VM to use as local storage for the saved image) It seems windows 11 just doesn't allow you to "install" on bare metal, but you can "run" it on bare metal no problem, once you have an image of your windows 11 VM's virtual disk, you can simply boot up clonezilla on any machine, and restore the image onto the boot drive. let it boot into windows 11 (high potential of bluescreen here depending on whether you installed vmware tools or any vmware drivers and your hardware might not like it [dont install any drivers when u first get to desktop in windows 11 in the VM, just shut it down straight away and clone it]) once you restore the image onto the new drive and boot into it, you should then be able to install drivers and its all pretty straightforward from that point. you can even activate it if you are that way inclined and have the tools to do so obvious disclaimer, the leaked ISO is pretty shady, so maybe don't hook it up to your network if you actually do this lol, the official release is literally like next week or something
  4. i see your necro, and i 1up it. 2021 necro go brrrr
  5. Ok so this will likely get a bunch of people saying "NO IT DOES NOT WORK, YOU NEED AN ACTIVE ADAPTER" But that's wrong, it does work, sometimes... Clearly VGA is analog, and HDMI is digital, however the internet is divided as to whether you can passively convert between the two standards. But i've seen it work plenty of times with my own eyes, including my current work laptop which drives a VGA monitor from its HDMI port with a legit HDMI to VGA cable, no adapter or active logic. So im wondering, do certain GPUs actually have the ability to output analog over the HDMI port ? in my experience its usually laptops that can do it. And to add to the weirdness, i once had a laptop which would output analog VGA from the HDMI port when the GPU was running in "windows basic display adapter" mode, with no drivers. but when i installed the drivers, i then had to use an active adapter to get VGA from that same HDMI port. TLDR; You shouldnt be able to passively convert HDMI to VGA, but sometimes you can, why ?
  6. hey man, sorry i actually dismantled this machine about a week after this post, i cobbled it together from spare parts. Can't remember too much about how it worked to be honest I sometimes refer back to this article if i need to remind myself how i did it haha.
  7. Elite Dangerous Some hot place, cant remember system name CMDR StarFox
  8. Elite Dangerous DRYAU AUSMS KG-Y E3390
  9. you must not buy ED without horizons though, literally getting 1% of the experience without it
  10. Elite Dangerous, hands down. Slightly biased as a 2000+ hour Cmdr but hey Screenshots !!!!!
  11. iTunes honestly, its the only media player that can scale properly to a 4k monitor. Foobar is eye torture at high DPI
  12. im sure linus recently showed off a 4-port USB PCIe card, which had a controller on each port. That would fix your issue. But more to the point, what on earth have you got plugged into your PC ?!?
  13. as for the quality of the cable, not too much of an issue. if digital works, it works
