I removed the printhead in my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus to clean it. I soaked it in isopropyl alcohol, wipe the bottom part of the printhead, used an electric air dryer to dry it out, and left it outside to dry for 14-15 hours. I put the ink in the cartridges and I get the error "One or...

I got a free HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus that works great in black and white, but whenever I print in color, the blue ink has white lines/streaks through it. I was wondering if anyone else had this issue with this printer? The test page (screenshot attached) says if there are white streaks...

I did update my original post. "The drive works as it should when not in the enclosure."

I had an issue with my Seagate Central 2TB in which the light was stuck flashing green. So, I opened the enclosure, removed the drive, and re-formatted the hard drive (it was corrupted when I plugged it in). It is now formatted FAT32. *Edit - The drive works as it should when not in the...

I recently had a problem with my Seagate Central 2TB Network Hard Drive. Whenever I hook the Ethernet cable to my router and plug it into the wall, I hear the hard drive spin up (no clicks of death, it sounds like a working hard drive). The Orange light comes on for a few seconds and then the...

I was wondering if it was possible to install both Mojave (32 Bit) and Monterey (64 Bit) on a 2013 Mac Pro? I would like to run apps like Adobe CS6 (32 Bit) as well as newer software like Microsoft Office 360 and the like (64 Bit). If it is possible, how would I go about doing this? I have...

I have an OWC Envoy Pro for Apple SSDs that worked perfectly until recently everytime I try to put data on the drive (after a few seconds of putting the data on) the drive would "disconnect" and "reconnect." I have tried formatting the drive in NTFS, APFS, FAT, and Mac OS Extended with at...

I found a NeatDesk Scanner for $5 at a thrift store. I know that this is an old device and support has ended for it, but I was wondering if there was some 3rd party software that would get this up and running? I know Vuescan is very popular for old scanners, but I do not see the Neat scanner in...

I just got a Razer Core X for both my Mac (2020) and my AW R13 R2. I have an ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 TI. It is running Windows 10 Home (fully updated). Whenever I connect the Thunderbolt cable the AW says "Thunderbolt device functionality might be limited." The PC shows Razer Core X...

I have a vintage Sharp Actius MM10 (Windows XP) from 2003"ish". The hard drive died on this unit and I want to put an SSD in this unit. The only problem is that this laptop (according to research) does not support USB booting (has 1 port) except to a specific CD drive. Since I don't have the...

Sorry! I mean clicking as in a normal clicking. As in, it is working the way it should. This is not the click of death.

I got the exact model St33000651AS hard drive. Also, when I look at both boards, they look identical.

The PCB was bad (the HD never spun up) on my Seagate St33000651AS. Therefore, I bought a replacement board so I can recover the data on the drive. When I swapped the board, the hard drive powers on, spins up, and starts clicking. Windows 10 makes the "something is connected" sound but the...

I have a bunch of great (yet older) guitar lesson software that only runs on Flash 7. I have kept an old MacBook 1,1 sitting around just to run this software. My question is, can I install an older version of Mac OS X on some sort of VM? While I use Parallels, I am not opposed to using other...

That is it! Thanks a lot! :) Did not think that an "unboxing" and "review" would have a section on how to replace the battery.

I saw someone do a battery mod on his Drevo Calibur Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard, but the instructions never showed how he opened the keyboard. The battery is completely dead on mine and I would like to replace it.

I recently picked up an older MacBook Pro 17-Inch Mid 2009 (5,2) (A1297). The computer has one issue with it. Most of the time, the computer screen either flickers random colors or the screen casts a weird color hue. About 5 percent of the time the screen works the way it should, however most...

I found this old mini hard drive from a vintage Sharp laptop. It is much smaller than a standard 2.5" laptop drive. The connector looks either a CompactFlash or a mini IDE. My question is, how do I get the data off of this drive? This does not fit in a CompactFlash reader due to the size of...

I just got an Apple Watch Series 2 that had a swollen battery that popped the watch face off. I took the battery out and replaced it with a new one. The "green snake" ("charge me please") shows up on the screen and eventually turns off. However, once I turn on the watch, the logo shows up for...

I have a TON of audiobooks that I have collected via thrift stores and I was wondering what the best way to copy all of them over to my hard drive so I can listen to them on my iPhone? If possible, I would like to combine the 5+ CDs of a long audiobook into one file. Is there an app or piece...
