File sync recommendations?
I just have a bunch of HDDs that I mostly don't use. It's mostly media and files (~2TB) I will never modify. I can copy the data, but I won't know when something becomes corrupted. It's not super critical so I'm not investing in 3-2-1 backup philosophy. Basically, I imagine the software mirroring the HDD to another location, and the software also ensures files are identical and flags potential corruption for review, or even just repairs it on the go. Backup solutions with servers confuse me. I don't think sync options like Rsync will do anything to flag corruption. Just hoping for some opinions or recommendations. I'm running Windows 10, but also drive Linux a lot and will be transitioning this PC soon, so Linux and CLI recommendations are also welcome. Cheers.PhillipforyuApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor11Views0likes0CommentsNeed help after hardware upgrade on Windows 10
So I just tonight upgraded some of my hardware in my old rig. I was running an msi b450 gaming plus max and a ryzen 7 3600x. Tonight I swapped it out with a new msi b550 tomahawk max wifi (got it on marketplace for $140 Cad) and a new ryzen 7 5800xt. Everything is hooked up, it powers on, but I get a BOOTMGR IS MISSING, PRESS CTRL ALT DEL. Everything is hooked up, I thought I had my drives hooked up in order? I went into the bios and adjusted the boot to go off of what I think is my main drive. Still an issue. I'm still using windows 10, booting in LEGACY, NOT UEFI, my c drive is still mbr. It was working without issue before I did the upgrade.IdrisooApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor27Views0likes0CommentsPerformance issues in Overwatch
It's my first time trying linux so I installed CachyOs on my laptop. I tried playing overwatch via steam like I do on Windows 10 which runs at like 45 fps, my problem is that with the same config it runs at 15 fps on CachyOs. As a first-time linux user I wanted to know if there's a way to get better performance or that's just the way it is for me. Thankfully my laptop isn't my main gaming computer but wanted to give it a shot anyway.IssacoinApr 30, 2026Brass Contributor11Views0likes0CommentsEarly Microsoft CD-ROM - 1986 1st Int'l CD-ROM Conference Demo Disc | ebay
Hi all, longtime LGR fan, first time posting here... I couldn't find any rules saying that ebay links aren't allowed, and saw others posting them here, so hopefully this is allowed. Anyway, I came across an early Microsoft CD-ROM that I can't find any other examples of online. I see a handful of period mentions of it, but it shares artwork with a (readily available) book that was published by Microsoft at the same time called "The New Papyrus." It appears to be a demo of an encyclopedia. As far as I can tell, this is about a year before Microsoft's first official commercially released CD-ROM, which LGR did a video about awhile back, so it presumably has some historical value. I was unable to get this disc to mount on my windows 10 machine, so I decided to put it up for grabs in case someone far geekier than me wants to take a stab at it.KirchhofftApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor15Views0likes0CommentsHow do I get the exact bounding box of an organic mesh and create a cube from it?
This may be a weird ask, but I'm trying to place a pivot at an exact center point based on Suzanne’s overall bounds. The squares in the screenshot are just guides to visualize it from top and front views. What I’m trying to represent is a 3D setup where there would be two layers of four boxes, so eight total, and I want the pivot to sit exactly at the center of that full volume. (The middle of the red circle in the image) I need to create a vertex in the middle of the cyan circle, but I’m not sure what the most accurate way to do that is. This is also exporting elsewhere so that's why I need the vertex there and not the red circle. If I did want to pivot this in the way I want in blender then I would make the origin in the middle of the red circle. Is there a way to get the exact bounding box of Suzanne? I need it to be mathematically precise. I want to avoid hand guessing it by resizing a cube over it. But once I get that bounding box I assume I will be able to array it to be the 4x4x2 structure and save the vertex where I need.NerfftApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor9Views0likes0CommentsTrojan in OBS of Windows 10 computer
Ran a full scan on windows defender today and got an alert for a Trojan inside of OBS. I looked around because I thought it'd be an odd place for a trojan and I don't really stream I mostly just use it for screen recording things now and then. Everything I've found on this has been vague I've seen some posts guessing its a false positive and others not sure. I ran a second opinion scan as is suggested a lot on here with Malware bytes. It found \GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR\GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR\DATA\MUSIC\TOOLS\HELIX.EXE, Quarantined, 1000000, 0, 1.0.109136, 8061488964A2C803DD84BD77, dds, 03852364, D5370AE9824EFC4F1755C169C0900617, 19264156BB405376F8B20194DA91E6C41C362CF8773253B8DD8DDF1DF287AF22 Apparently some guitar hero file from 2 years ago was malicious. I uploaded it to virus total and 12/61 flagged as malicious. I also uploaded the windows defender detected file on to Virus total and 7/61 security vendors flagged it as malicious (Alicloud, Avast, AVG, Cynet, Google, Ikarus, Rising). Not sure what to do here as I'm pretty worried now. Part of me is ready to just wipe my desktop. Already deleted both files. Thank you for any help!ZillmannApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor66Views0likes0CommentsWindows 10 wymusza sterownik
Jestem posiadaczem karty sieciowej TP-Link Archer T4U Plus V1.0. pobrałem do niej dedykowane sterowniki. Karta na tych sterownikach chodzi o wiele lepiej. Zasięg jest maksymalny i prędkość kilka razy większa niż z tymi windowsowymi. Jednak bardzo często urządzenie wyłącza się i windows wymusza mi na nim swoje sterowniki od realteka. Paskudnie one chodzą i na nich urządzenie wyłącza się i rozłącza z siecią częściej. Nie wiem już co mam zrobić by nie nadpisywalo tych sterowników. Konwencjonalne opcje mam już za sobą i nawet zmieniałem ustawienia grupy względem windows update próbujac zatrzymanie pobierania wszelkich sterowników. Nic nie działa Ticket: 7102053157PIERNIKARZ27Apr 29, 2026Copper Contributor5Views0likes0CommentsShould I Install Windows 10 or 11 ?!
Hello everyone I want to install a fresh windows and actually I can't decide which windows is better right now! I've seen some good reviews of Win 11 but also I've seen the opposite!
