@Rib right yeah I didn't get one. my SSD is on gen 5 but i don't think there's a problem with that

i have reinstalled and updated the graphics drivers though & haven't had any crashes in a couple hours so we'll see...

updated the bios on friday and after no problems yesterday it happened again today
but i realised that in the "crashed" state it is still responsive to some things & i was able to sleep & wake it which brought it back to windows with the display drivers disabled. so that might be the problem area

i've got monday off work, at least, so i will try to have a chill next couple of days
apart from the one thing i still have to deal with. but i'm not thinking about that for now

today didn't go well

maybe the last couple of months have finally caught up with me

@mavica_again depends what you want to do with it tbh, i'm not sure how much the small one was but the 2 controllers one was £25 which seems a bit much for what it is

they are purely famiclones w/ multigame rom on internal flash so if you wanted to convert it into an emu box you'd prob only be keeping the shell and maybe controller pcbs and replacing the rest

it crashed again, again all I was doing was watching a stream and browsing the web
The thermals seem fine, I'm running memtest86 now & no errors. Nothing is in the event logs before it crashes
How do I even figure out what the issue is here

some mini-arcade famiclones seen in Flying Tiger today...
Typo also had a handheld which I'm pretty sure was the same one I saw last week but in different colours. But the sales person was hovering so I didn't take a photo

Well I bought an adapter and now the monitor works so I was about ready to say it's all good now but then it just fully crashed while I was browsing the web so. hmm

I finally swapped it out with the old PC. The glass side faces the wall so it just kinda lights up its corner
Stilllll not fully ready though because it doesn't work with the USB C-DisplayPort cable I have which I was relying on to connect one of my monitors to it 🙃

my old pc will probably be decommissioned soon so just for posterity here's its wallpaper

computers these days pretend they're above all that, like they're too good to just fire bits back and forth with something running a Z80 or whatever. ohhh nooo i only know usb and bluetooth i need a protocol
you're not so different really! you still speak zeroes and ones when it comes down to it

well even though I have not touched this in a bit I did install the Secret Weapon and it does work! the shiny new 2025 PC can still talk to a simple game boy

That PC I built has been sitting on the floor in my living room for 10 days

I haven't played a video game in about a month
