Use your PSP as an additional monitor under Windows


Recommended Posts

Wow you guys are kidding right?, there are so many applications for this that it makes me cry that i cant use it under Vista x64

1) Put Winamp's main window and playlist on it so you can always see the next song that is coming and the playback, while still having a full screen application running on your main monitor... (Eg. Play GRID on the PC and have your own music in the background, you can see what song follows)

2) While playing single player games on the PC, you can have a Notepad open on the PSP with a FAQ or strategy guide.

3) Weather widget, CPU/Mem Utilization, Email checker, etc * 100

4) Photoshop or other Tools that allow you to move panels, you can put the panels in the PSP's screen and have your entire screen for your Project's Preview

5) MSN, Skype, IRC, etc, etc

And so many others, i want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent suggestions! I can't wait to try it but I have Vista installed so I'll have to bring home my work laptop. Sort of a pain but I'll keep my fingers crossed for a Vista-compatible version in the near future.

at the moment it seems alot of trouble for something so little... maybe when they get the features they mentioned implemented, then maybe its more worth it

abit more involvement on the psp side of things would have been nice, like doing a larger portion of the rendering process rather than just displaying what the windows driver sent it

at the moment i can see 2 scenarios for it... your very energy conscious and you use your psp while your monitor is off... or someone makes a new version of the driver that makes the psp behave as a second desktop, rather than just repeating whats on the monitor

Wait, please explain better, i cant try it because of Vista, but i thought the made your PSP a secondary display?? at least it looks like that from the video...

Does it only "copy" whatever you have on the primary monitor???

I have to say, I'm finding it hard to find a practical use for this :p I suppose one would be to have the magnifier on the PSP screen maximised and then it can view everything zoomed in on the bigger screen (which would be great for stuff like photoshop or those with hard of hearing, having a zoomed in and zoomed out perspective without it taking up any more screen space.

wtf?

This looks pretty cool though. I'm gonna have to try this out later.

ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!! No Vista/64-bit support. :'(

64 bit versions are not supported, as well as Windows Vista. I would like to provide a Vista version but it will probably never happen due to the changes in the display driver model regarding multi-monitor support.

oops i meant like, instead of displaying the output of the computer's video card like a monitor, the psp should be able to do so much more, like almost like another video card

guess i sounded kind of confusing.... guess i cant keep up with technology that well :)

Oh you mean the PSP actually doing calculations with its CPU/GPU to generate 3D content for the PC or itself, that would be sick, i could write another list of things that could be done with that :D

It would be great if they used the Vista Sideshow SDK to make it work as a Windows peripheral... :)

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
