Re: 8bitdo USB adapter gets stuck and registers no input after hard reboot

Not sure if this ever got a permanent solution in another thread somewhere but I have had this same problem for years. I am referring specifically to the OP's issue of the 8bitdo USB Adapter will not reconnect properly to the MiSter after a cold reboot. Though I have yet to see a permanent solution, I was messing around with it again today and I di...

Re: MSU-1

The most recent public release build from yesterday seems to be working nearly perfectly. I haven't noticed any music stopping (like it did in previous builds). It'd be great if an option could be added to specifically adjust the MSU Music Volume like the SD2SNES. I have a mix of ROMS and some have the corrected volume and others don't. So some ga...

i had a similar issue and this was resolved with a new power supply
I've only bypassed the in-line switch and tried the stock psu that came with the DE10. What power supply is suggested as a high quality and safe replacement?

Cardboard and tape are some of the worst things to expose electronics to. ESD damage usually presents itself in the form of intermittent problems such as the ones you’re having, so I bet it’s that.

Or backup your stuff regularly, especially before updating, which is always a good practice.

If you're looking for 100% accuracy, you may want to try original hardware. Even though FPGA cores may be extremely accurate, looking for 100% may not be possible.
