This is a continuation the prior post about about the - as of now - hypothetical arcade cab project. I thought I should start listing some details of the "Mark I" as listed in part I. This project was largely inspired by a few posts on the /r/cade subreddit. It looked relatively easy and I … Continue reading The Arcade Cab Project Part 2: Parts and components

Extracting drivers from Windows
Since about 2014 (as I write this late-2019) I started buying these incredibly low-end and low-priced Intel Atom-based devices. There was something about a device running windows and coming in under $100 that never failed to fascinate me (actually I got a non-windows Atom device for around $45, as a novelty).

The Arcade Cab Project (part 1)

R520 Hyper-V 2019: News and updates (Late Nov 2019)
I mentioned in my prior post (updates to that post below) I had to re-install the Hyper-V server OS. This did indeed go smoothly and has worked since then. The main problem I have with the OS this time is very intermittent errors with connecting to it with Hyper-V manager. Server Manager works, WAC works … Continue reading R520 Hyper-V 2019: News and updates (Late Nov 2019)
R520 Hyper-V 2019: Lets try this again
After being very frustrated with the performance of the combination of virtual machines and my drive pool, I decided to re-install Hyper-V server 2019. Before doing so however I decided it would be a good idea to go through and record some settings in case I needed to go back to a prior configuration. It … Continue reading R520 Hyper-V 2019: Lets try this again
