I decided to keep all of the media on a separate Western Digital 1TB hard disk It should be noted that I live in the UK and some of the methods listed below may not be applicable to other regions. You can also use the Monity widget from the app store to monitor your system. It has been noted that the data may change on the last line of the output in iMessageDebug, this appears to be ok though. If the two copies are the same you may go ahead and set up iMessage. Press y and Return to save a copy called iMessageDebug.txt to your UTILITIES folder.Ĭompare the output with the saved copy in the UTILITIES folder. Open the UTILITIES folder and run iMessageDebug. In Clover Configurator select File - Save

Therefore although it was questionable if I would fully use it, I decided that this build would serve as a test platform for the concept with a view to miniaturising the process if the results proved favourable.įirst I checked with the Gigabyte website to see that the motherboard BIOS was the latest version (F2).

I have my iTunes and an Apple TV and I only own around three DVDs as I usually just watch a film once (So many films and so little time), so I have never felt the urge to have a dedicated HTPC.

At some point during the construction process I came across an article about a Mac based HTPC (Home Theatre Personal Computer). This build was started purely for my own amusement with no intended purpose as I already have way too many computers. I have several pairs of Logitech S150 USB speakers which have the distinct advantage that they have native support which means that you plug them in and they work without any additional configuration. I use these in all of my builds so there are usually a few in the spares box. There are also two 5.25” drive bays on the front panel and into these I added two SATA racks. I bought mine from the USA via eBay and even after paying the shipping charges it worked out much more reasonable. Incidentally, these card readers are stupidly expensive in the UK. I installed it in this build because there was a FDD bay in the case and it gives me another USB port on the front. The Sabrent card reader was installed for a while in another machine but I found that I wasn’t using it so I removed it. The PSU was intended for another build but turned out to be borderline for the requirements and so one with a bigger output was used instead. The SSD was a Black Friday buy that although I didn’t need it at the time, I knew it would come in useful one day. The 4GB of RAM came from another build that I later swapped out for 16GB. The GT640 graphics card was also used in my ThinkServer for a while before I replaced it with a GT740. The i3-4330 processor was redundant from my ThinkServer when I upgraded it to a Xeon E3-1245V3.

The motherboard was one of those bargains that you have to buy because it is so reasonably priced but then I never got around to actually using it.

I didn’t have a spare case so I purchased an Aerocool Qx-2000 ‘cube’ case because it looked different and interesting but more importantly, because it was inexpensive.

I was recently searching through my spares box(es) for a part for one of my builds when it occurred to me that there were probably more than enough spares available to enable me to create another machine.
