I got the Y cable, now when I plug it in at all to any usb port it is freezing my entire computer until I unplug it. I can't get into the drive to see the data. What do I do? Update: After leaving it plugged in for like 30 minutes its saying format? What does that mean? What do I do?

I currently have a "SAMSUNG 500GB 2.5" External Hard Drive HXMU050DA/G22" (https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152174) for my external storage device that I bought back in 2009. I lost the usb y cable that came with it and I'm using a single cable now. If I watch a video or...

Will this case work with my current specs? https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?item=N82E16811352073 Its practically 70% lighter than my current case and it shaves off at least a couple inches on all dimensions.

Oh I forgot to mention my ram. I currently have Corsair CMY16GX3M2A2400C11R Vengeance Pro 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 2400MHz, and G.SKILL Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600. Ultimately I am very frustrated with my current massive case is now...

Hmm maybe I should hold off then. Will my current motherboard not fit in that case?

Currently have: GTX 1080 i5-4670k ASRock Z87 Extreme4 LGA 1150 256 Samsung 850 Pro SSD Also just bought this case: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GSQ2I22/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Looking for a motherboard/cpu combo that is a pretty noticeable upgrade to what I currently...

Yeah I tried that too. I'm not even seeing the TP linksys model tg-3468 PCIe on device manager in network adapters and there is no other hardware area either.

Thank you.. definitely the right direction.

Okay then... I currently have a i5- 4670k that I also got in 2013, so I am definitely due for an upgrade. I was holding off because of this Spectre/Meldown thing and I wasn't sure if it was a good time to buy a new processor. What is the deal with that anyway? What motherboard and processor...

Currently have this one: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157369 In the next year I will probably ask on here what motherboard I should upgrade to that can house the latest recommended processor. So hopefully it will be a case that can be convertible to whatever new...

I am looking for a newer more compact case. I got this one (https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352020) back in 2013 and its been great, but its super bulky and taking up a ton of room. I still need the case to be able to house a GTX 1080 and hopefully this cooler...

Not seeing any errors.

About 2 years ago I bought a PCIe Ethernet Network Adapter for my Desktop, as my motherboard's ethernet port was killed by lightening. It has worked no problem until I restarted just a few minutes ago. I have tried unplugging it, restarting my computer, changing ethernet ports on the modem, but...

anything?
