    Even if it is enough wattage, I would replace it. The psus that are in those prebuilts are absolute trash.

    Meowster reacted to RejZoR in Why do Audio CDs have a date of 1.01.1995?   
    I can't say about the date, but the 1KB in size is just how Windows sees the audio tracks. Those "files" are actually just shortcuts to the physical audio tracks on the CD. If you copy them to HDD they'll only work if you have CD in the drive. And they are always 1KB (or around that) in size like regular shortcuts.

    Found the issue: The HDD PCB was shorting to the metal case of the HDD, don't know how that was possible but somehow it was enough to kill the system. Its an old Quantum Fireball 40GB Drive

    What an idiot. Who sells a phone or computer and leaves all of their data on it? No wonder fraud is a problem.

    If you bought this on eBay, open a case immediately and request a refund. 
     
    Get yourself a different one (even if you choose the same model again).

    LTT should do a video on the most comfortable desktop setup (including desk, chair, and monitor). What I mean by this is not just super comfortable peripherals but software and hardware. The type of person that the build should be for is someone who works long hard days that when comes home just wants to either relax with a movie, music, video games, or whatever else. The software part should be things so that said person doesn't have to worry about viruses, makes it so that they can use multi forms of media in one place, and anything else that make the setup effortless to use.
     
    If anyone has any ideas to add post them below and also like this if you think this is a good idea.

    Since all the debate about article 13 in the eu is making vpn services important for eu citizens because of  the fear of geo blocking,
     
    how about a video of "How to set up your own private VPN on a server you rent somewhere in the world"?
    Perhaps that's something Anthony could help with! Could be fun and informative.

    I seen where he did a video creating an arcade machine, so how about a video creating a virtual digital pinball machine?
     
    Look at this youtube video to follow up on the idea and it says freeware? so that is a plus!
     
    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCD3jvaIJycBPtRKgl03cBbA is a link to the group for visual pinball

    If Apple switches to ARM based CPUs, I'm switching to Windows fully, I use an iMac Pro for work, its not that good in my opinion and switching to ARM CPUs might even make it a bit worse in my opinion

    i would expect when the arm imac pro replacement ships (at least a year from know) software support will be ok for you. it will be a lot faster for that type of work at least adobe will be using the deficated image pipelines that they already use on the ipad to ge smoth 120 fps on masdive projects.

    @hishnash I use the iMac Pro for some sort of heavy photo editing (I'm a photographer) and at work, I use it to manage and share my work with staff (I work for a local architect business) and we use a lot of SketchUp to design buildings

    Maybe contact a data recovery company. Will be expensive but is likely your only option.

    I bought a pair of really nice bookshelf speakers awhile back.  they sat for a couple of months while I was busy.  When I hooked them up, they sounded like crap.  I took them apart and the foam surrounds on the woofers were shot.  Luckily I know a guy that can fix that sort of thing.  They were pretty expensive once I took care of the problem, but still way less than half of what they were new.

    I love computers, but old stereo gear is awesome, because it generally ages far better than equivalent computer gear.

    Took it apart, found that the belts have disintegrated and the head was so dirty that I was literally peeling of layers of dirt from it. Got new belts and cleaned all heads. They should come on Saturday.
    Thanks for your tips, I'm a bit new to this equipment

    No worries. While sometimes mechanically quite complex - equipment like that is easier to tell physical damage.
