    React OS

    This os is really nice. Its called react OS. It is basically a reverse engineered windows xp. It runs all the programs that windows xp runs, but is as stable as linux.

      Re: React OS

      This OS is currently in alpha stage. Not all apps designed to run on Windows 2000/XP will run on it.
      Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/React_OS
      It would be nice if this free OS would evolve into usable replacement for Windows.

              hehe...

              on a side note, i don't think linux is more stable since win got the nt core...(ie since 2k)

                  I tried this in a VM it wasn't all that good. It shows promise but right now its nowhere and there really is no interest.

                      Help Needed: Reverse Polarity Issue on HP EliteBook 840 G4 – Where Do I Begin?
                      by Dev Goose
                      Hi everyone, I recently acquired an HP EliteBook 840 G4 (6050A2854301-MB-A01) that I'm hoping to bring back to life. I'm fairly new to laptop repairs but eager to learn and willing to put in the effort to understand and fix this. Any advice or guidance would mean a lot!


                      What Happened
                      The issue started when the laptop was accidentally plugged in with reverse polarity. Before this incident, the laptop would show a power/charging light whenever it was plugged in. However, now it's completely unresponsive—no lights, no power, nothing. I've been doing some research and understand                      ...

                      Running Line Voltage and Integrating LED Pods - Automotive
                      by FALKLAN
                      Howdy everyone! I hope all is well where ever you are!

                      I'm attempting to integrate a couple of LED pods into an automotive reverse lamp circuit. The problem being, while the vehicle is running there is a 8.5v current present on the reverse lamp power wire. Needless to say is that all LED pods and lights dimly illuminate while the 8.5v is present, so the LEDs are always powered on while the vehicle is running. When the vehicle is shifted into reverse, the voltage changes to 12 volts.

                      I am uncertain how to convert this line into a switched 12v output line for the LED pods....

                      Identifying QFN16 3x3 mm buck DC-DC Li-ion charger
                      by martonmiklos
                      Hi folks,

                      I am trying to repair a Braun Silk Epil 9 series motherboard.
                      The on-board single cell Li-ion DCDC charger IC is defective.
                      It runs from 12V, and when it starts charging it brings my bench PSU CC.
                      I have drawn a reverse engineered symbol for it, does anyone could identify it?
                      I used up all my google fu with qfn16 li ion and dcdc keywords, but I have not found any pinout compatible one. Given the product's likely high volume production rate I also filtered LCSC's offering ot the 16 pin QFN DCDC and li-ion charger controllers, but no luck so far....

                      Reverse engineering of 18650 4-channel tester
                      by spleenharvester
                      Hi friends

                      I have reverse engineered this tester, schematic is attached and is complete except for capacitor values. These testers annoyingly have no model number but they are the ones you find on the first page of just about any website if you type in "18650 4-channel tester". There is also a 2-channel variant and a newer 8-channel variant. They are very cheap (about £15) and can measure voltage, current, internal resistance and capacity. They have a multicolour display for all these statistics. They also have terminal blocks so that if you want to use a breakout board...

                      Query on preventing reverse flow
                      by jinu_j
                      Hi Folks

                      I need your help in a design problem. I have a power source that provide 3.3V, 5 V, +12V, and -12V. Each output is rated at 5A individually. Now i need to create a 4 way switch which will allow me to select the output I want. Unfortunately cannot find a 5 way rotary switch that can handle 5A. The ones i find are too big and used for main electricity board. Hence not suitable for my project.

                      So what i was thinking was to do the following
                      - Use normal 5 way rotary switch rated for 500mA.
                      - Connect the output of this to 4 channel 5V relay. So...
