Re: Help with a flash drive

Yeah, I checked out iHound earlier today and was disappointed when I found that they had discontinued their service for flash drives :/

As far as GadgetTrak goes, it's probably my best bet.

Help with a flash drive

Long story short my keys, some cool keychains, and my flash drive with some important files on it were stolen. This pisses me off.

So in order to try to prevent this from happening again, I came up with an idea to make a simple script or autorun of some sort to help me track another stolen flash ...

Re: N64 Laptop Finished

Is that fiberboard or regular wood? I like the idea because it looks easy to cut. Nice job

Re: Simple Voltage Question

Thanks for the responses guys. I agree the screen is probably fried, but is there any way to fix it? Or am I better off getting a new screen?

Simple Voltage Question

I got a free Intec PS2 stlyed LCD screen from my friend the other day (can you make a Jew any happier?) The downside is that he didn't have the original AC adapter :(

Since I fail at being an electrician, I need some advice. The back of the screen says DC IN 12V. Without checking anything I plugged ...

Will These LED's Work?

OK, so I went to RadioShack yesterday and picked up some LED's. I'm using these LED's to replace the Dual Shock so instead of a vibration I get lights instead. Stupidly, I didn't make sure that I can use these without anything shorting out or what not. So again I come here asking a probably "obvious ...

Sorry for like my 4th question this week, but I can't find answers, and I know you guys just love helping me out :D :D :D

But anyway, after coming back from my spring break and returning to school I decided to brag a little bit about my PS1. A lot of people were interested and congratulated me ...

Re: Removing Dual Shock?

One option if you like, is to keep the rumble feature but not use the rumble motor - ie connect an LED to the wires you remove the motors from, so you get a light instead of a rumble. Some games help you progress in a game by rumble, so the LED option might be worth considering.

I don't really ...

Re: Removing Dual Shock?

Bacteria, that option sounds great but you're a little late lol.

I have one more problem now, when I was desoldering one of the rumble thing-a-majigs, the other one slipped right out of the solder joint. So now there's just some solder on the controller point. Is it OK to leave it there?
