Today I was able to burn a port(version of a game that has been changed or rewritten so it can run on a different hardware system, console, or operating system than the one it was originally built for..) of "Space Cadet 3D Pinball" to disc to play on my Sega Dreamcast. This game was known for being pre-installed on Windows 95 through Windows XP, before Microsoft removed it for Windows Vista.

Here it is, sound belting through my home entertainment system. Fun nostalgia trip, I used to play this game a lot on the family computer after school as a teenager.

Having trouble getting the Space Cadet 3D Pinball Dreamcast port to load. I've included a picture of the message I'm getting on my monitor where it cuts off, and a picture of the files in my GDEMU folder.

I'm using GDEMU version 5.20.5, not sure if that's a factor in this port or not. Just kind of stuck at the moment, let me know what worked for you! Thanks..

Changed my 2005 Hyundai Accent automatic transmission fluid for the second time at 70k(In last changed it 5yrs and roughly 45k miles ago), I didn't realize the used fluid was so much darker when I checked it on the dipstick.

Did I do good by getting this old, dark fluid out of there?

I have a 2005 Hyundai Accent, with 66k+ miles on it. My automatic transmission is starting to slip, and it has a scheduled, and recommended within the manual at this mileage, transmission fluid change.

My question is: Should I worry about dropping the pan and replacing the transmission fluid filter? ..or just drain & replace the fluid?

My concern is that it's rather rusted, it's a northern vehicle, and I am not sure how well the bolts/pan are going to tolerate that kind of maintenance. Also, if it's just a drain & fill, I'm pretty sure I can just do that for a fraction of the cost in my own driveway....but if the filter is an important part of changing the transmission fluid then I'd prefer to have a mechanic do the job properly.

Also, my apologies, as I'm pretty sure this is a rather novice question...just figured I'd put some feelers out there and get some opinions on the matter. Thanks a lot.

Having trouble accessing the service menu with the remote I was able to source online. It's clearly not OEM, and I'm pretty sure it's actually for a VCR combo(this one is DVD..). Is there any workaround to get into the service menu on these Orion-made I'arts?

Drove about an hour today to pick up this Toshiba 27A45. It has Composite, S-Video & Component, but is not one of the later(Orion-made) Toshiba models to have a built-in digital tuner. Hopefully it's a decent pickup, looks like, for starters, it definitely will need a nice little cleaning when I get it home. Remote included.

Thoughts/Opinions on this CRT TV welcome..

I recently did a post about a curb-find Compaq HSTND-1A04-M CRT PC Monitor(⬇️link to the original post in the comments⬇️), and just wanted to share the progress. The current setup is a Sega Dreamcast through a direct VGA connection, and the picture looks honestly the clearest/crispest I've ever seen for this console...really exciting stuff!

The input I received on the last post was super helpful, special thanks to all the group members who chimed in(on both r/crtgaming and r/crt!).
