    All fans spin but Pc shows no display

    There is a post with pretty much the same problem, as far as I can see: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2063817/cpu-fan-spins-post-beeps-leds-dead-motherboard-cpu.html To shorten the thread: it does seem likely to be a dead motherboard, but it could also be the PSU or (quite rarely)...

    Xbox One S Controller Causing whole PC to LAG

    New ASUS STRIX 1060 GTX outputs 1 long 2 short beep code, but old 560 GTX doesn't

    Any idea why this is happening? The card does turn on and the fans are spinning even without psu connections (so pci-e should be working I presume). The cards LEDs for a short moment flash up with blueish color and then pulsate red for as long as they are turned on. The post code (1 long 2...

    Local area connection doesn't have a valid ip configuration after using ubuntu

    So I did manage to solve it by sort of expanding on the idea of copy pasting other configurations. If you have a similar situation with having Ubuntu booted from flash (like I did) or even dual booted and thereafter having lost the ability to connect to the modem (sorry guys I forgot it is a...
