the motherboard was completely bent out of shape. that's the design flaw. if you put wings on a plane backwards and they were torn off during take-off you would be wrong to blame the bolts holding them on

PleasureKevin posted:the motherboard was completely bent out of shape. that's the design flaw. nop, althoguh a lot got bent because people kept telling peopel to tighten the loving clamps up on back to fix it which woudl work for a bit but then fial again and ud probably gently caress the motherboard as wlel. if its a pre-hdmi model, like a xenon board exspecially, 9/10 it soging to be the gpu and if u reball it with leaded solder that'll usually fix it. anything later with hdmi on its going tobe one of the other fualts tho PleasureKevin posted:the drive on the xbox yeah idk what they were doing with either. the early liteon models in the 360s seemed especially bad from the ones i fixed, idk why. at least tha tone is an easy fix, just drop in a new laser assembly. most of the non-rrod errors ias w though were just loving disgustingly dusty and filthy inside and were clogging the stupid thing up and went back to nromal after a clean up.

akadajet posted:and lol what's it doing with that "error info"? sending a memory dump to the mothership or something? just creating the memory dump, you don't have any of the facilities to send network data (or really do much of anything at all) in the bsod handler. the sending happens when you reboot the 'friendly' bsod is so lovely. at the point that your system has a catastrophic failure all hope of user friendliness has gone out the loving window. just show a reasonably specific error message and some error code(s) so that people can google that poo poo. MEMORY_MANAGEMENT? what the gently caress am i supposed to do with that? that's so generic that without looking at the dump you're not going to know what the gently caress happened. that's why microsoft is cool again

Mr Dog posted:what do you think about risc-v i keep hearing about this, but it's not something i've needed to know about, so i went and looked it up just so i could properly effortpost okay. this architecture has a hoarding problem. it hoards encoding space. it's a 32-bit fixed-width encoding using three operands and 32 registers; it burns another two bits of that to support an optional 16-bit compressed encoding, but it doesn't predicate arbitrary instructions, so there's a full 15 bits left for the opcode. the core isa has, like, 40 instructions, treating immediate variants separately and including system instructions. even with some loss from the immediate forms (mostly 12+5+5, a few 20+5) and the future-proofing variable-length encodings, and throwing in the fp instructions, there is a ridiculous amount of unused opcode space meanwhile it has no support for scaled indexing or any bit manipulations that don't correspond exactly to a binary operator in C (not even rotate). it doesn't even have compact instructions for saving and restoring registers on function entry/exit. so in typical risc fashion, it is a perfect set up for writing papers about the importance of optimizing the i-cache, because any non-trivial function will completely murder the chip with code size also it has zero support for overflow detection, which is admittedly niche but really, really important within that niche
