Basically I want to be able to plug my game consoles into a usb port (or usb over CAT6 since whole home is hardwired back to an electrical/IT closet) on my home media server but I want the PC to simulate an external hard drive so that for instance games and saves can be accessed on the console in the living room and the console in the bedroom. Also it would be nice to be able to have the data redundancy for saves that could be backed up to the cloud or via RAID. Does anyone know of a program that can do this? Or alternatively could I plug both consoles into the same USB external HD since it is just a data bus or would I presumably have issues with the consoles trying to talk to one another?

Wow, thank GOD I found this subreddit!! It is literally calling my name!!

I have an HP compaq 6005 pro. Hasn’t been used in a few years and I was wondering If It’s possible to transform the computer into an upgraded high performing computer? Let me know what you think

Hi! So I'm kinda clueless when it comes to this so forgive anything that doesn't make sense. I want a secure internet connection, but cant afford to pay a provider monthly for access to Google and all. So I need a monthly provider for ethernet, or is buying the ethernet wire enough?

I live in illinois and have HughesNet, i have checked and i cannot get any other internet providers in my area, except for dial-up. The capabilities to HughesNet are limited, in other words, it is terrible. I want to create my own internet source for gaming on an xbox and PC, can someone please help me?

The RBG’s on the ram get stuck right before this happens while the rest of the RGB’s continue the normal circle.. ( video here - https://youtu.be/sc3Bb8eliGs )

XML disabled, ram left on the stock frequency of 2600 MHz (advertised as 3600 MHz on XML profile)

Any advice on finding out the exact cause? It’s super frustrating to get a bluescreen 3 times a day on a new build

Need some help :(

As the title says. I'm trying to find a second stick of RAM for the current one I have because there's an open slot in my computer. I mainly want to know which specs that I HAVE to match with the current stick of RAM.

Sorry about the low budget. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to prioritize?

Hello, Currently I have some shitty DSL that gives me around 30/6 speeds and 70-80 ping to a gaming server. I just recently got Starlink ontop of my current internet while Starlink puts off way higher speeds around 150/30 it has brief moments of beta downtime. I am looking to stream on Twitch and play competitive games and the reliability issue of Starlink hinders that greatly. Is there a way I can fully combine the two networks so they act as one so if Starlink goes down for 30 seconds I can just rely on the other internet? I can't have even seconds of downtime between the two internets though so the service would have to continue uninterrupted while Starlink is down. I'm guessing this is nearly impossible, but if anyone knows of a way I would greatly appreciate it!

Can someone give me a full list of compatible parts to build a nice streaming/gaming computer in an NZXT H510 case. I

I am using Windows, I have a Steinburg UR22 USB interface. I downloaded ASIO4ALL and am using FL studio and VLC media player having issues.

First, I’ve used this setup before on older laptops with no issues, I upgraded to a new desktop and now having problems.

Second, if I open up VLC, close it, and open up FL studio— or if I open up FL studio close it and then open up FL studio again I am unable to access the driver.

“Not enough ASIO output channels available. At least two channels are needed.”

If I open up VLC and play one of my samples, a .wav (that definitely works) often times VLC will not play the file. You can see the loading bar at the bottom moving across the screen (where you would see the song progress), sometimes it plays sometimes it doesn’t. Maybe it plays when I click it, try another nothing, go back to the original, nothing. Any which way you slice it, sometimes the sample plays other times no.

I have two drives, ssd with my OS and apps, reg HDD with the samples and VSTs. I can move the samples to the other drive, it makes no difference.

My computer is not and has never been connected to the Internet other than to set it up. This has always been an issue on this machine.

I can record in FL, I have made songs, but it has always been an issue to have to reboot because I opened and closed and reopened FL... and now I’m reviewing new samples and I can’t even get the task done, I can’t rely on the files playing to open them to listen in VLC.

I have updated to a new version of VLC after uninstalling it. No luck. I have run both Chkdsk /R X: (for both drives) as well as /sfc scannow with no issues.

In FL I have my in/out device selected as Yamaha steinburg USB ASIO from the selection entitled “ASIO Devices”.

As of recently I now get FL64.exe - System Warning “Windows discovered a corruption in the file “C:$Mft” this file has now been repaired. Please check if any data in the file was lost because of the corruption.”

Like I said, I’ve run those scans and it says all good, also that error is new. All I did was not use the machine for a couple months. Before that, same problems just did not ever see that particular error.

VLC audio output module is set to Automatic because that’s how it was on other machines that worked with the exact setup.

I’m really not sure what to do next. I’m not sure if this could be hardware related, if so— what? The external sound card (the interface, the Steinburg UR22?) One of the drives? I don’t know what this could be.
