Guys, I am sorry, this thread is long and I didnt read it all. Could someone tell me please what the current situation is with an NUC like D54250WYB. It has an HD5000. Are there still problems with those intergrated GPUs today?

Hi,

Not sure if this has already been asked or tried. Has anyone an Intel NUC with vPro tried testing if an Intel AMT viewer like RealVNC Viewer Plus is able to display XBMC in true full screen mode?

I have previously mentioned an issue I have with my NUC after its been powered off (using openelec). I have 8 usb drives attached to the NUC via 2 DAS enclosures of 4 drives each, it tries to read/wake the drives each time it powers on which takes some time. I have the bios setup so it does not attempt to boot from USB and the only device that appears in the boot list is my sata

However it then always says unsuccessful boot attempt as if it is timing out whilst trying to read all the usb drives? Once they have all been "woken up" it boots fine or if I just select boot from this device with the sata drive highlighted.

The advice previously was to attach the USB drives to a powered hub which I have done but I still get the same issue for some reason - anyone got any ideas?

Also I can see there have been new drivers added by Intel for the bios and graphics - how can I update to the latest versions without a Windows OS?

Anyone able to help?

Quick google search came up with this (not sure if of any use though):

Anyone know if it's possible to hook up a usb blu ray drive to one of these and get xbmc to play br disks?

Yes it is possible. I have done it in a couple of occasions.

I can't reproduce the suspend issue here, works fine on Arch with 3.13.

In regards to Simerec. I'd hold off buying one for a tiny bit longer. [something is coming that is awesome, all will be revealed in a couple weeks] it'll make simerec/NUC installation a lot easier than when I did it.

Hi mate been nearly 2 months now is this likely to see the light of day anytime soon? If not will have to bite the bullet and but/install myself

Simerec messaged last week saying end of the month. I'm still waiting too bud.

Any joy with this over the festive season?

A Friendly *** WARNING *** to OpenELEC Users

Learn from my unfortunate experience... If you intend to run (or are presently running) OpenELEC from a USB stick, you may want to reconsider your choice.

The appeal of saving the expense of an SSD for my NUC steered me to install OE on a Kingston DTMCK/8GB microUSB. No problem running xbmc, and it's a cute, stubbly little thing. I even got an adapter and mounted it internally.

That was six months ago. Over the last few months, the GUI response has degraded, erratically taking long pauses between remote key presses and actual screen response.

Last week the NUC would no longer boot. The DTMCK died - write/read cycles all used up. No response - not even to a FORMAT attempt in my main (Windows) desktop. Dead as a Doornail.

As the old adage says "You buy Cheap... You buy Twice".

I replaced the USB stick with a Kinston mSATA module (SMS200S3/30G), and now enjoy "instant-ish" response - plus the comfort of knowing it'll take the pounding of an OS much longer to burn out the mSATA cells

Hope this helps save someone a little grief.

Merry Christmas !

I have 2 of the "DCCP847DYE" celeron 847 Nuc's running windows 7 64bit. What graphics drivers are recommended? The image is pretty bad, screenshot here. Image is good using any other player. DXVA2 is enable, without it the littler celeron fails.

Hey!

Pulled the trigger and bought the i3 (red and black version with thunderbolt ) with 64gb msata and the intel wifi card.
Sitting and reading up, and what i understand in the beginning there where problem with overheating. Is this fixed now?
Also a lot of the heating issues where caused by the intel msata 525 that where faulty.

But anyway, with al the new bios upgrades etc, is overheating still an issue on these?
