Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello everyone!

My name is Jeffrey. I'm from Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, but I'm currently pursuing a degree in electrical engineering at Wichita State University.

Since middle school, I've been building computers and repairing phones, and through the years I've learned a lot and have dabbled in more complex repairs and projects. I share most of what I do on my YouTube channel, "Jeff's Tech" but as of now, I haven't been uploading frequently if at all.

Nowadays, I've been working on fixing up my recently purchased car which is a 2010 Nissan Xterra Off-Road.

I'm here with a multitude of questions to try and fix my random assortment of projects

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello,

Just joined the forum today after discovering this place last night. I am attempting to get a laptop of mine running again and through some lengthy internet searches I came across this forum.

I am a mechanical engineer and researcher in grad school, and in my limited spare time I tend to do a fair amount of coding and working with my hands. My computer is nothing to write home about, just a school provided laptop. I was not told however that I have been out of their ITS support network for over a year so now my laptop is locked up and I plan to wipe every trace of my university off of it. With the help of this forum of course.

Not really sure what else to add but this seems like a good community and I am eager to get involved.

Thank you.

Hi folks, The names Billy, come from Scotland in the not so sunny city of Aberdeen.

I have been tinkering with computers since the early 80's, C64, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST's and Commodore Amigas. Got started with PC's in the early 90's when a 486 was considered snappy, and a 386 was the norm. I started working in a computer store ran by a friend from high schools father. and my training consisted of, heres a motherboard, heres a graphics card, memory, etc.. and they go in here.. like lego they can only fit one way. and was told to have at it.The rest was learnt on the job.

I went on to study software engineering at university, and later a second degree in graphic design. This is what I still do, soon to be put out of work by AI.. likely!

I have recently started tinkering with some of my old hardware collection, and picking up other parts in trade etc. as i want to put together some retro gaming boxes. that no matter how good an emulator, workarounds and fiddling just never feel right.

Suffice to say after 10 - 20yrs or longer being sat on a shelf, or in a box. some of this stuff, even if unused and "new" needs some work, or at least a thorough check. so I will be asking some dumb questions. just a heads up!

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello, my name is Tim. I started restoring retro gaming consoles 1 year ago. Before that I was restoring antiques and retro toys as a hobby. I've always worked on things and was taught by my grandfather how to restore stuff. I guess it just became a passion. My son got me into gaming and I can't stand to let the classic consoles die. Although it's hard to find some parts or schematics for some of them and that is how I found this group. I hope I can be of help and maybe get some help with this. As my son says I better at fixing the console than playing it.
