    Wii U N64 Injection Framebuffer Issues

    So, I'm trying to inject Zelda OOT Redux into the base OOT game (this ROM hack fixes a lot of issues the OG version had, adds hover/iron boots to the d-pad, faster text speed, many QOL stuff that makes it superior to the vanilla version). However, the framebuffer effects are completely jacked up...

    Why do I keep splurging on expensive stuff? (vent)

    So, recently I purchased an RTX 3060 TI via a third party on Amazon on a whim. To give some background, I was about to embark on a six-day workweek to cover for a coworker who was on vacation at the time. As you know, my job gets stressful from time to time, and being a long stretch of workdays...

    Steam boots up with "Steam folder not writeable" every other time I turn my PC on

    Granted, it's easy to fix, and from what I've Googled, it's caused by a game's download that got interrupted in some fashion. I don't know why its happening every other time I boot my PC up, or why I have to clear the download cache and sign in every time to fix it. I noticed this happening...

    Hardware HyperX Cloud Orbit S concerns

    So, this is probably gonna sound noobish or obvious, I don't know.

    So, I've recently updated to this new Asus monitor and it has good features, color, ports, etc, standard flair for an IPS display. But, there's one issue, 120 Hz causes it to randomly flicker or rather, the bottom half of the screen to show what looks like a 50% opacity image (for one to two...

    Hardware Thinking of getting a PS Vita, complete noob on modding scene

    So, I never owned a Vita, I never had much interest in it during its life cycle, but after seeing Modern Vintage Gamer's recent video about modding it, and Tech Savvy Buyer's video on how to mod it (even downgrading it), I'm seeing it for a pretty decent homebrew/emulation machine. I do have a...

    Hardware 8bitdo Bluetooth Adapter corrupts input drivers on Windows 10

    So, I made a huge mistake, something that's royally pissing me off in terms of controllers and classic games via emulation. I have an 8bitdo SN30 controller, which is great, feels amazing and makes SNES games feel more authentic. Using RetroArch + Snes9x along with this controller on my new 27"...

    So, I've been having weird standby issues lately, screensaver issues too, seemingly at random with Windows 10.

    Relocating My Documents to another drive?

    So, apparently, it's possible to tell Windows 10 to relocate the My Documents location to another hard drive. Well, the reason I want to do this is because a few games, like Oblivion and Skyrim, thought it was being useful by saving games to the C drive. Well, the issue with this is that my C...

    LG Stylo 3 - Secure startup enabled without knowing how

    So, I have an LG Stylo 3 phone, via Cricket (my provider) and well, my phone has been acting very odd.

    Steam - TES IV Oblivion randomly pauses

    So, I can't seem to have any luck finding out what's causing these issues. Like, so I have Oblivion on Steam, right? Got it for five bucks on sale, installed it, but it well, runs like crap, even for a TES game. What I mean is, the game will randomly pause for a few seconds, then resume, but the...

    Hardware Logitech M510 Mouse prevents screensaver and standby

    If this is in the wrong section, I apologize, as it covers both software and hardware, mostly hardware. So, this is kind of a software or hardware related issue, and frankly, it's beyond baffling. I firmly believe that my wireless mouse is preventing my computer to go into screensaver or...

    Adding more HDMI inputs to TV, something like an HDMI box

    I'm not entirely sure where this is to go, as there's no dedicated TV section, but given that most TVs nowadays only have two or three HDMI inputs, I'm looking to mitigate that issue. See, I'm looking for some kind of multi HDMI input box, splitter, or the like, to add another two or so HDMI...

    Question about a 50" Samsung HDTV, need to stop games from auto-dimming

    So, something about a 50" TV we have has been pissing me off, like, it's hard to explain but in games where there's a dark dungeon, the TV itself will lower the brightness, and will brighten up every time a text box pops up, then back to the weird lowered brightness. Same happens in battles or...
