IIRC this was sometimes due to the charge controllers. The early Android also use to completely kill the touch screen whenever you plugged the charger in, and you'd need to unplug it to use it.

@TheWilldrick Год назад

just a PSA, the SteamOS that you downloaded is based on a really old debian base, it's the one that shipped with Steam Machines way back in the day. The newer SteamOS (based on Arch and with a ton of improvements) is not yet officially released by Valve, but community already ported most of it as HoloISO

@HearMeLearn Год назад

wait really? I would've thought they've released modern steamos by now for when steam deck users need to reinstall steamos

@mitlanderson Год назад

@@HearMeLearn the Steam Deck has a recovery image, but an official installer on non-native hardware is still being worked on. The community said fuck it and cracked the recovery image and called is HoloISO (since the codename for SteamOS3.0 is Holo).

@kevinj24535 Год назад

SteamOS was released when you have to reinstall the OS on your Steam Deck. Simply with the program Rufus build a SteamOS usb stick and then reinstall SteamOS. But this version is really only for the Steamdeck and not for other PCs. Valve is still working on the version for other PCs / handhelds. But some programmers have changed this SteamOS version so that you can install it on any PC. The OS is called HoloOS

@Bubu567 Год назад

Steam shoehorned a lot of hardware dependent optimizations into the steam deck so that OS isn't meant for installation onto other hardware in that state. HoloISO is the best available steamOS distro for such a purpose.

I genuinely love these ultra low-power devices. My laptop from high school has a 4W TDP, and can easily last 8 hours with 2D/basic games. When this category of power usage can power 720p60fps high quality gaming, hopefully we see truly 24 hour portable gaming devices

@protocetid 2 месяца назад

Don't know why he used an old Atom, Intel has new ones but the lowest TDP for a recent one is 6W. Another from 2021 is 4.5W. Energy efficient handheld PCs are woefully unexplored. Could they allow for a cheap and small gaming handheld? I can’t tell performance off specs alone. Need me some gaming benchmarks and there are like none for newer Atoms on RU-vid. This type of handheld PC could even have potential as an easy and inexpensive way to get into PC gaming (and serious gaming in general), specially for children. I'm not under any illusion that this would play the latest big budget games, I know better. And so should potential buyers, gamers sometimes have a hard time remembering how many old AAA and indies games exist. A handheld PC with very low energy consumption also interests me because it could be small and pocketable, something that isn’t made anymore.

I had a very similar charging issue with an old Asus tablet of mine! I didn't use it for several months and then took it out in 2019, but found it wouldn't charge, and gave up. At the start of 2021 I took it back out and plugged it into my laptop on a whim, and what do you know, it charged! I use it for Netflix now, it runs horribly slowly navigating the menus but it does video playback fine and has a very nice screen!

@guesswho2778 Год назад

I had a similar issue with my acer aspire r13 (also sometimes called an r7 for some reason), except that suddenly overnight it decided it didnt want to turn on unless i disconnected the battery, held the power button for a minute and left it to sit for an hour or two, at which point i would plug the battery back in and it would turn on. This of course was really annoying so i just packed it away to be dealt with later. A couple months later i decided to try and turn it on again and it did so with no issues. I am now using it to host some network shares and a to host a few private game servers.

@somehow_not_helpfulATcrap Год назад

There is a big flaw in those Atom tablets. Its something to do with the CPU going into a deep sleep mode and not waking up correctly when you hit or hold the power button or plug it in to charge. The usual fix was to open the back and disconnect the battery for a few minutes to manually restart the system.

If only there was a better tabelet you could use. I would say a M1 ultra ipad, but then you'd be stuck most likely with driver issues if you tried to install windows 10 or something on it.

As someone that owns a steam deck and someone that's been interested in the idea of using handheld PCs for gaming since I was a kid, I think this is still really cool. I remember seeing this exact setup years back and wanting the same tablet and controller for this very reason. Obviously it's not going to come close to the steam deck but for what you paid, a portable ps3/360 era machine isn't bad at all.

@FAKEAXIS Год назад

Yeah so you need the 32bit .efi file to install windows again, It took me a while to find one of those files. My memory is foggy but you had to add it to the BOOT/EFI/ on the root of your install USB. This was a weird time where these tablets ONLY ran 32bit .EFI files for the installers BUT used 64bit windows. Or you can just find and install 32bit windows and call it a day since these things at most came with 4gb ram. Oh and also if your boot menu for some reason did not read the USB, you have to use the EFI Shell , its almost like a console and you have to use commands to point to the file on the USB flash drive.

@BastetFurry Год назад

@@EmergencyChannel, the problem is, this is not an IA-32/AMD64 platform but some x64 SoC that has been kicked long enough to accept booting Windows or Linux. From the Userland this won't concern you, but the underlying OS has to know the quirks and whatnot it has to roll with. I have a Trekstor TrekStor SurfTab duo W1 running Debian and it had cost me a whole afternoon configuring it so that almost everything works. My only gripe, the onboard wifi doesn't like WPA3 for whatever reason, even under Windows, so i have to use a little wifi thumb stick.

@ahmetkemalkeskin5445 Год назад

This video genuinely made me happy. The fact that for £30, you can get such a surprisingly-usable and actually capable package for retro gaming and emulation makes me happy that despite the ridiculous hardware prices, there is still scalability in the hardware space.

@BudgetBuildsOfficial Год назад

They never really sold VW branded stereos here in the UK before the 2000s. So most options at dealerships tended to be Sony options. The UK had a surprisingly big minidisc market, similar to Japans. So I’d imagine that some people wanted to Spec a Minidisc player, it comes with the same CD Multichanger as their CD and Casstte options, so an odd option, but an easy one for them to spec in.

Haha, amazing! Love it. Wouldn't expect that battery life from an old tablet - and I am pretty sure it isn't easy to replace, if even possible. There is a ton of things you could do with a device like that, if only replacement batteries were available. Sure, it won't run anything modern (maybe some 2D indie games), but with it being able to run low settings Skyrim (I know the PS3 experience, that is how I played it on 11.11.11)... There is so much of gaming history up to this point! Heck, for that price, it being an emulation device is good enough. I had an 11 inch 3317U based tablet once and it somewhat struggeled to run PS2 era games (Soul Reaver 2), but I didn't tinker with settings much. Also, it had an AMOLED screen, so after few years ghosting was a serious issue. You gotta respect the longevity of an IPS screen :)

Well done on doing the piece to camera dude. The more you do the easier it will become.

Absolutely brilliant video. With the streaming option it makes it easier to game.

The switch on the bottom of the device switches the joystick modes between PC (directcontrol) and XBOX (xinput) as well if anyone picks one up.

You can look it up online, but you can modify a steam shortcut to force steam to open up deck-mode. so the software would be the same on this from a steam deck

I gotta say I enjoy the fact that you build your own car too.

It would be interesting to run community-driven gaming debloated OS there exist out there such as GGos, ReviOS, KernelOS etc. They run pretty neat in limited hardware, and see how performs in a device like this. Genuinely the steamdeck competitor video i've seen someone put the most effort into so far, keep up the good work!

hey! this tablet I own! I (for some reason) love it a heck ton. even though I don't use it that much, its a cool thing to have. I use it to just read the news, do some general web browsing and playing some very casual games occasionally . the gaming part has been taken over by something else. but still I enjoy owning this thing

A very enjoyable watch and pretty decent performance relatively speaking considering the modest specs. I was particularly surprised by the emulation performance. Makes me wonder is it worth considering a half decent windows tablet for a portable emulation device? Anyway please continue with these type of videos I find them really interesting, although I am also a big fan of your old gpu videos too. Keep up the great work.
