COACHS SPORT BAR posted:Windows shouldn't be hanging up trying to enumerate a device that isn't there - I'm more inclined to think something maybe is up with the new drive. Is the new hard drive known to be good, have you attached it to any other machines? it's got to be something wrong with the controller because i used that drive to replace the old one and it works--as well as the previous one, in that windows can end up going into repair mode and looping, unable to boot until ~something~ and then it does did a fresh install of win10 on it and it still does this thing where it hangs explorer sometimes if i click 'this pc' putting the old working drive into the caddy and the optical bay had the same result, no boot, can't even get to bios but if i hit f2 it might freeze on the verbose boot details and show both disks but just hang forever after "mouse installed..." i'm getting an external case for the old hdd but unless i can figure out what's wrong won't be able to have ssd + hdd on this machine so that sucks additionally (and this is mentioned in a review on amazon) there is an unlabeled switch with three positions in the caddy that some guy claimed helped him but doesn't seem to do anything for me

I finally blew it out but now the nvidia gpu is barfing random bitflips out of the frame buffer. Cool little speckles dancing across my screen, keeping me company. Owns bones.

if its pre-sandy-bridge the memory controller and sata controller are in the same place (the chipset) so unless you have a static discharge problem caused by dust, looks like youll have to replace it to exorcise those demons

Has anyone here successfully installed Win10 on a new XPS 15 (9560)? Win 10 installer doesn't have drivers for the PCIE M.2 disk, so it bitches: Dell support site offers nothing in the way of install-time drivers. I tracked down a reddit thread that provides an intel link to a driver. Loading that during install looks promising, but after attempting to install I get this: I could probably install with everything in legacy mode, but thats kinda lovely

COACHS SPORT BAR posted:Has anyone here successfully installed Win10 on a new XPS 15 (9560)? yeah I have done this. you want the intel rst drivers which you can get from dell here. The EXE is a self extracting zip so extract it and then slap the appropriate driver for your windows version onto a usb and load them during the install like you were doing there. You could also add them to your windows installer image if ur gonna be doing a bunch of them.

If i leave secure boot on / legacy roms off, I can't boot to install media

wow what the christ so, grasping at straws, I booted the stock win10 image and used an app to extract existing drivers didn't find any RST stuff, but I just went down the list in the installer and threw everything it found at the installer got through a bunch of useless stuff, then installed the realtek SD card reader, of all things (installing from said SD card slot) that got me through the "you need a driver" block screen, got to the partition screen, but still no disks shown from that screen I clicked "load driver" and pointed it at the RST driver shagger provided that had failed numerous times earlier this time it worked, somehow Guessing that at the stage of the installer where I was blocked, it was apparently hung up on the sd card reader, even though I had already successfully booted from that device anyway, guess i'm good to go now, thanks yospos~ e: nevermind burning swine fucked around with this message at 05:06 on May 17, 2017 |

I wonder if ur win 10 image is fubar or maybe doing it from an sd card doesn't work? I did the install from a usb stick and stuck the drivers into a random folder on the stick. you could have 2 sticks too I guess.

some googling indicated that you can get around that particular error by ensuring that there aren't any SD cards in the slot, so I'm making a bootable usb now will report e: Booting from USB instead of SD and everything went smoothly, installing now. wish I had known beforehand that installing from an SD card is apparently impossible. lesson learned, I guess thanks again all for help burning swine fucked around with this message at 05:32 on May 17, 2017 |

Finally i just formatted that one and installed from it. I honestly didn't figure there would be any effective difference

Posted this in SHSC but since it's weird greybeard poo poo the pos is probably better. Trying to get my Apple IIGS connected to the internet via SLIP. I attached it to sl0 and set up a point-to-point route. My Linux is 192.168.1.221 and the Apple II is 192.168.1.222. The Linux is in a vmware VM with a virtual LAN so eth0's IP is 192.168.68.2. My regular-rear end LAN is 192.168.1.0. Currently from the Apple II I can telnet to 192.168.1.221 (so I know the SLIP connection's working) but I can't reach any other networks so something's up with my routing. Here's my SLIP script: pre:slattach -p slip -s 57600 /dev/ttyS1 & ifconfig sl0 192.168.1.221 pointtopoint 192.168.1.222 up route add -host 192.168.1.222 dev sl0 arp -Ds 192.168.1.222 sl0 pre:Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface default 192.168.68.2 0.0.0.0 UG 100 0 0 ens33 link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 virbr0 192.168.1.222 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 sl0 192.168.68.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 100 0 0 ens33 192.168.122.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 virbr0
