    the console does not start

    If it powers on, then off, it most likely is *not* a short. The PSU would self check that very early in the boot process, long before you would get any sort of feedback. The components circled look like bypass capacitors. Considering I can't see the underside of the board or where the vias are...

    Still no Windows 11 minimum requirements HELP

    Windows does it for you, yes, but if it was ever installed *without* secure boot being enabled, and thus Windows enrolling itself in the key store, you can not convert it to a secure boot platform after the fact. Has to be reinstalled. You also can *not* convert a live MBR install to GPT. They...

    Still no Windows 11 minimum requirements HELP

    1. Secure boot requires MOK enrollment. If you installed Windows with secure boot off, turning it on isn't going to suddenly make it work. 2. There is zero evidence that Microsoft changes *anything* if running on "unsupported hardware". 3. You can install W11 just by setting a single registry...

    Xbox Series X HDMI Issue: Unexpected Reading on Pin 14 - Need Help!

    Sounds like you created a short / don't know how to operate a multimeter. OL means overload/ over limit depending on manufacturer, and if it originally read over limit (you never said over limit on what. Resistance? Voltage? Current? Impedance?), and now reads within range, you're most likely...

    Finally back in the Switch scene, spun a new repo to work on coldboot CFW. Probably going to be a minute as I finish up my research on the G998U1's bootloader > v3.

    Just because you sit here and leech doesn't mean others aren't working.

    Hacking Coldboot CFW status in 2023?

    Once I'm done with the S21s bootloader I'll work on it myself. As I said, just came back to the scene. Being a defeatist here does nothing.

    Hacking Coldboot CFW status in 2023?

    I'm sure Sony, MS, Sega, and Nintendo themselves said the same thing over and over. Yet it keeps happening. Saying "never" in a hacking community is downright stupid.

    Hacking Coldboot CFW status in 2023?

    The like has been said for every other thing that couldn't coldboot. The same has been said about every other thing that couldn't be hacked. I get the chain of trust here is RO and physically unchangeable on the board, but that doesn't mean *something* will never happen.

    Hacking Coldboot CFW status in 2023?

    Been out of the scene for awhile, how's coldboot looking outside of trinkets or other mods?

    ROM Hack Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl Cheat Database

    You need to update to 1.3.0, but if for some reason you can't, and you put the codes in the correct location, open the edizon overlay and enable the cheat, then press right to enable, or left to disable.
