zhlédnutí 479Před rokem
This video is a brief look at a Sony SLV-686HF I bought off Facebook. The problem is that despite the tape threading correctly, I don't get any video. If anyone has any idea what the cause could be, I'd really appreciate your input.
The Unfortunate Tale of Two Thinkpad T430s
zhlédnutí 61Před rokem
Today we are taking a look at two Lenovo Thinkpad T430s laptops. One of them I found at an antique store; which had a bad keyboard, and the other I bought nonworking on EBay to salvage parts from. Can I combine the two to make one working machine? Stay tuned and find out! This video is also the first time that I'm using an actual tripod, so no more shaky videos. Also, I am experimenting with us...

Great video
@@joshuapowell1868 Thanks for the comment!
Found a tossed out D430 to-day. Also has a docking station sort of stuck! Has the Intel Duo core Centrino (had / has Win XP). Turn it on but it comes up "no boot device found" so either the HDD has been removed or its dead. Thank you 🤓 can the CPU be upgraded on the D430?
I can’t see😢
I'm sorry, I filmed this years ago before I had a proper camera and lighting.
Yeah the 2000s-2010s had bad cams😂
cool video !
Is the video head connected to the board (the ribbon cable)??
Yes it is. I even unplugged the connector and gave it a good cleaning with Deoxit.
I have a D630, which just so happened to be my first computer.

You need to zoom On the screws and parts when dismantling so that people will learn from your video what to do for replacement of rams and keyboard etc .....
But I'm not sure if it will work on windows 11 ????
I just purchased brand new one new old stock T430s good machine

Reflashing the BIOS has always fixed that slow POST process for me, even if it's not an upgrade and just the same revision.
That HP looks like it came out in 2013! I have an Inspiron 3521 with about the same I/O.
just installed lubuntu (is free) from a usb (cp using rufus, which is also free) and goes great. I was not using the laptop because it was too slow with win10 & felt bad about it because it is still in great shape. There are some videos that substitute the disk to a ssd with using an mSATA-ZIF adapter board with mSATA hard drive. D430 has PATA interface. However, the mSATA to 1.8 adapter fails at times. I will leave it with linux by now.
Hi, have you the password of BIOS? i cannot acces without it, Greetings!!!
@@ProgramRudra But it can be bypassed with a master password.
Sri lanka price?

Most likely, a mode switch issue. Unplug the V.C.R., undo the entire chassis, and then locate the mode switch. Remove the cap, make sure that the arrows are aligned perfectly upon reassembly. Clean the contact traces with alcohol and use a very small amount of white lithium grease on the contacts. Reassemble mode switch and V.C.R. It should work. Never force a tape into a transport. It could irreparably damage the V.C.R.
thanks for sharing your hauls !
How to boot the secquence please
Goob ))))
made in CHINA
I have the same one and it just won’t ugh
It’s the bar
Clean the mode switch. Has nothing to do with caps
Thanks for the comment, but I no longer own this particular unit.
lol at first i wondered why all the people were panicking couldn't they just go to the launch silos? but then i realised there was no launch silos back then and if you didn't have the escape gamepass you were pretty much screwed.
Bad luck :(
What is the model number on the VCR?
On the head.
Could be failed head drum servo circuitry or a dead motor.
Hello Bleach, can you see this?

All The MagnavIox VCRS is a Piece of S***! Like Funai is a S***.
I've never seen any other VCR do that. It must be a power supply problem.

hey bud... i noticed you left a comment on a "two moon video" a couple years ago... that you and your mom saw a bight moon and a dim moon... can you please go to my channel and tell me if my video looks like what you both saw?
+Brian Clark Thats exactly what I saw.
+simtitan1 not many people have seen it. only one or two that I know of. if you feel inclined to comment on my video of what you saw, please feel free cuz I need to find some witnesses. do you recall the date or time of your sighting? i filmed it on 3/29/2015. nice job on your video. thumbs up.
i meant I'd "like" to find another witness. i don't "need" it, but it might help. I'm getting all kinds of nasty comments from the naysayers & any support from other witnesses would be awesome, thanks.
I recommend recapping the power supply. Your Magnavox looks like a Panasonic OEM. Their SMPS power supplies always develop problems with leaky or out-of-spec caps and the symptoms are diverse; bad picture, unstable playback, unable to detect tape speed, the head drum won't spin, etc.
The OEM is Funai and not Panasonic
I like how everyone panics in the chat.
Jamesthe1 {[Minecraft, Music, and more!]} They do tend to overreact a bit, don't they?
No, I don't see an auto head cleaner. The head turns freely to.
Also try spinning the head manually. If there's resistance (you have to force it to spin) then something is clogging it up (dust or something). This happened on one of my VCR's, and a through but careful cleaning fixed the problem.
Does this have the automatic head cleaner on it? If so it might be jamming the head.
