    Hacking {{N3ds users ONLY}} post your results if you are going to downgrade.

    This is normal, restart the console and next time try booting up FTBrony first, exit back to Homebrew Launcher and then run SysUpdater. Got mine downgraded 10.3E MM N3DSXL now 9.2.

    Gaming Best Macbook to buy?

    I myself have always gone for MacBook Pros, simply because they offer the best price to performance in the range, usually a smaller premium in price given the specs, plus if you do need to use Windows for anything there's always Boot Camp. I'd take a look at last years model but MacBooks tend to...

    Hardware Rate My Build / Give Suggestions.

    Making changes now is the most important part, you don't want to order it and find out that something simply isn't fit for purpose, I agree entirely with guitarheroknight a 750W Corsair PSU may be overkill, but I'd rather have the head room than not. Also, Cooler Master paste wouldn't really be...

    Hardware Rate My Build / Give Suggestions.

    Hmmm, not too bad a choice, I'd recommend using NT-H1 instead of AS5 paste, though I'd also recommend liquid cooler as opposed to air cooling, more expensive but better headroom for potential overclocking and quieter. Power supply, I'd avoid Rosewill as they're not the most reliable, I...

    Hardware Is the Blue Screen of Death really that bad?

    A BSOD is rarely going to be due to catastrophic failure or imminent doom, more often than not it's simply driver related, what you should always be looking for is the error code, if the error code doesn't change between BSODs it's nearly always driver related or due to corrupt files, which...

    Homebrew Why are hackers so against piracy?

    The simple fact is that most "hackers" aren't hacking the console to run roms or backups, it's quite literally people attempting to find out the upper limits of a device. More often than not, the people who are finding exploits are doing so to find something new. Against piracy or not, when you...

    Hacking A bit new and have a couple of questions

    Just some quick clarification, the need for two carts exists because the Gateway Red cart is 3DS mode whereas the Blue cart runs in DS mode, as Gateway uses an exploit in DS mode it's the simplest method to simply include two cards as a firmware modification would be needed to switch between...

    Hacking How to sell an 6.2 exploit to Gateway?

    I'd agree with the general consensus smells a lot like bullshit, however if you're serious, I'd recommend you create a proof of concept video, email Gateway letting them know what you've found, find a reliable escrow provider, allow the third party to hold the funds until Gateway are happy that...

    Hacking 3DS XL SD card problems after flash hardmod

    I thought that might be the case too but wasn't entirely sure, I do think that if the mod is removed and it still doesn't work then it will require photos of the board to see if there is anything else a miss. Hopefully there's no permanent damage caused.

    Hacking 3DS XL SD card problems after flash hardmod

    Yes, that microchip is a resistor array, if you put your multimeter in continuity mode and try the pad's that you shorted originally it should give you no reading or low ohm, if you get continuity you've got a short there and that could be causing the issue though I'm not sure that'd be the...

    Hacking 3DS XL SD card problems after flash hardmod

    It does indeed sound like a short, you've used enameled wire so you could easily have accidently stripped it and shorted inside the case or shorted the pads on the resistor when you were soldering and not cleaned up well enough, it would be much easier to help if you could provide photos of your...

    Hardware Replacing 3DS Charging port with Micro USB

    Without butting in too much, can I just ask what wattage your soldering iron will be, as you've stated that you've never done SMD rework I'm assuming you've mostly done through-hole soldering in the past, what pitch have you soldered to before? Replacing any connector isn't impossible but as a...

    Hardware gpu u help

    At around £100 I'd recommend a Nvidia GTX 750Ti, it'd be much easier to help if you stated which games you were looking to play and at what quality and FPS, I'd honestly recommend saving more around the £200 mark is you are interested in medium to high end gaming, but for low end a GTX750Ti...

    Hardware Starting to build a new PC- Help needed

    All the parts will be fine together, the DVD writer will also work without any issues, I can't guarantee the case will hold an ATX motherboard so I'd buy a mid-tower or full tower depending on your preference, stick to a name brand PSU, you might be able to get away with a coolermaster case+PSU...

    Hacking nand based saving issue with omega

    When the game is loading press and hold Up B and X together, this will prompt you to delete the save data and you'll be able to start a new game for pokemon x/y. I believe that all NAND based saves will have corrupted saves on first boot due to the way the saves are loaded, they work fine after...

    Hacking Flashing with correct chipset

    I haven't flashed a lite-on in quite a while so I may be wrong, but have you tried clicking "Outro / ATA Reset" then "Intro / Device ID"? You should click VIA Ports Only and try on each at least once. Hopefully it'll show up afterwards, it's quite difficult to fully brick a lite-on and they're...

    Running an app in guest account which requires admin rights

    Have you tried right clicking the shortcut, going to compatibility, click "Change settings for all users" and set run program as administrator? Though as far as I'm aware, Photoshop is a bugger to get running without admin rights, so I don't think it will be possible to run it on a guest account...
