    Question Acer Laptop won't boot from second ssd

    I think that's a pretty solid idea, maybe if I can buy an extra external drive, I could reimage the drives, but at the moment I don't have anything with enough space for two drives. I'm in a foreign country and have limited resources at the moment. Well command sees the old system but gives an...

    Question Acer Laptop won't boot from second ssd

    Of course it takes a bit of work to get it perfectly fleshed out with all the drivers it needs to function, but I have always been able to boot the OS of another laptop hard drive on my laptops, no matter how many issues it gave. Usually I would just reinstall and be done with it, but I am on a...

    Question Acer Laptop won't boot from second ssd

    A few weeks ago I bought a new Acer Nitro 5 and promptly put a second ssd from my old laptop into it. I left the old system partition in case I didn't like Windows 11. The system sees the drive, can interact and transfer files, and also sees the system partition in diskpart Welp, as it turns...

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    Okay, now I am running into a host of issues. When I tried testing my machine with a different psu, my machine wouldn't boot. Through process of elimination I found that my system drive(SSD) when plugged in at all would prevent the computer from even starting. So, shorted drive, perfect. Got a...

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    I'll have to see if any of my friends have a PSU they could let me test. I don't have the money to order something I don't need this moment so, that might be the way to go.

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    Four or five years now I think. Also, I just talked to one of my old colleagues and he mentioned that the power grid here is very prone to taking out psu's. It is sounding more and more likely, especially with the normal temperatures of the CPU that maybe it could be the PSU...

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    I can't really give those cause my computer crashes before I can actually get any heavy gaming in. All I've been able to do at the moment is World of Warships and Company of Heroes. I'm too scared to try anything else. I'm checking the numbers now during World of Warships but, Dying Light, for...

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    Sure, this is a series of samples using AMD Overdrive. I played a few minutes of World of Warships during this for sample's sake. It is one of the only programs that doesn't black screen me. I have now had two seperate assessment programs BS it too, that being the User Benchmark assessment and...

    Question Is it my cpu overheating?

    So, maybe a week ago I started playing Dying light with a friend of mine when my desktop just black screened and instantly restarted. I've been having this issue more and more often for less and less demanding programs. I opened up the side and can feel the heat on the motherboard sinks...

    Well, It doesn't seem to have changed a thing. Any other possibilities or just scrap?

    Question My Graphics card fan spins uncontrollably and the machine does not post.

    I have had this problem with my Radeon R9 290x for a long time and actually downgraded to a 750TI just to get rid of it. I recently decided that I would like to either fix it or just get rid of the card and you guys are my last chance. So, on startup, my 290x usually starts having a fan spasm...
