Just gotta let the world know I have the coolest boss at my day job. Gave me this Redbox kiosk for free!

I was able to bypass the internal boot sequence and start it in safe mode, but it's pretty much locked down unless I reinstall windows or linux, but I don't want to wipe anything. Has important drivers and such, like the touchscreen, and probably code to run the internal servo motors.


I tried some workarounds from a discord group that is repurposing the kiosks, but most of it wasn't working for me. Can't even bring up the task manager even though I reenabled it using regedit. That, and it crashes shortly after booting into normal mode with the boot environment overrode with explorer.exe. Oh well, besides that everything is in good condition and still functions outside the actual Redbox software side of things.

The screen has both VGA and DVI inputs, and luckily I had an old DVI-to-HDMI cable lying around. Hooks up to the Steamdeck just fine, and looks amazing! Basically an instant arcade cabinet with a wireless controller.

Eventually I wanna do some kind of project with it, maybe an arcade cabinet, some kind of digital jukebox, A giant PC tower with RGB lights, or SOMETHING. In any case, it's gonna be stuck out it the garage for a while, so I'm hesitant to put a different PC in there.


Plus, there's no room in the house right now, so having any practical use is out of the question. It'll be winter soon, and I ain't gonna freeze standing out in the garage later this year. Just gonna have to clean it up and keep it safe until I have a good plan for it.


But man, this thing is cool.
