    Question Randomly being logged out of Windows 11 when PC is in use

    Hi everyone, Multiple times a day my PC is randomly logging me out of Windows and taking me to the log in screen. It's mostly happened when I'm in a game, but has also happened when I've been internet browsing. It's happening 4-5 times a day. I've only had my PC for about a week: AMD Ryzen 5...

    Thanks for the info. Is there a particular paste you'd recommend? I have some Arctic Mx-4 here somewhere, would that do better? I did only install the 3080 yesterday, was using a 2070 super before that, still had very similar temps. Have been considering getting a case with better cooling.

    I’m suspecting a BIOS update might sort it, so trying that at the moment.

    [SOLVED] CPU Swap - Screen not getting signal.

    I have just swapped out my i5 6500 for an i7 7700. However, when turning the PC back on everything seems to start up as normal, except that the screen doesn’t ever display anything/doesn’t seem to get a signal. I’ve removed the graphics card and tried booting off of the motherboard display...
