General Question Play with Orbiter 2016 from USB.

[carlosriera]

Hello, I have copied the entire "Orbiter 2016" folder on a USB with all the plugins and ships. When I try to turn it on with the USB on another PC, it gives me an error.
What am I skipping?

 

[GLS]

Hi there!

"it gives me an error" is not really enough info... a description of what happens, a print screen, or a log is needed.

I looks like the "new" computer is missing some VC redistributables needed. I don't know which versions are missing (there was a discussion about this and D3D9 recently, search the forum), but it's all available for download for free from Microsoft websites. After that is installed, the D3D9 module should load without issues and run as usual. The other 2 modules might need the exact same version, so you might fix all 3 issues in one go.

Thank you GLS for the answer, but now the temperature of the graph rises to more than 100º (AMD HD6770), what will be the cause?

Need to know more. Is this on laptop or desktop?

 

[carlosriera]

It is a Dell Studio XPS desktop computer.

Thank you GLS for the answer, but now the temperature of the graph rises to more than 100º (AMD HD6770), what will be the cause?

The cause is the transistors inside changing state.

Seriously, check if the fan and heatsink are clean (turn everything off first, of course).
You can also decrease the graphics settings, to reduce GPU demand.

 

[carlosriera]

At the moment the graph as soon as you turn on the PC is already at more than 50% and 70ºC.....!!!

AMD's HD series is very sensitive to drivers they should be the latest
(for example, I recently found out that an AMD quad-core processor is a dual-core processor with two fake cores)

70ºC.....!!!

notebook Hewlett-Packard? then it's all right

No, is a desktop PC

 

[carlosriera]

I cleaned the graph and now everything is fine. It no longer rises in temperature as before.
It really was dirty.
Thank you so much.

Hyper-threaded cores aren't "fake", they give definite benefits over a basic dual core CPU.
But yeah, they shouldn't be advertised as 4 cores. Should be advertised as 2 cores 4 threads.
Mine was listed as 8 cores, 16 threads, makes it quite clear that it had 8 physical cores, but 16 cores as far as Windows is concerned.

70°C is not that crazy but you're starting to be in the "red zone" yes.

I use this to make sure temperatures remain under control :

VGA NV game bundle with GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, GeForce GTX 1070 and GeForce GTX 1070 Ti series

fr.msi.com

It is meant for overclocking (which you don't want to do there !), but it also has a very handy function that allows you to edit the CPU and/or GPU temperature vs. fan RPM curve from Windows without going into your BIOS. Now I usually manage to keep the PC under 60°C, at full load.

Now of course it also depends of the temperature of the room !

Yeah, soft brushes are the way to go. Paintbrushes work well. Wear a mask to avoid filling your lungs with silicone mud. Also if you have an hair dryer that has a "cold mode" it works great for clogged fans. Never use a vacuum cleaner, vacuum induces static electricity.

Last year I went crazy and bathed my CPU aluminium radiator (just a metal part), then dried it.
