Hi, My PC has been behaving strangely these past few days. PC shuts down immediately after waking it up from sleep. It then restarts, tries to boot up again, goes through the boot process for 5 seconds or so, shuts down again and restarts. It may repeat this cycle 4-5 times before actually...

I know FreeFileSync and I use it for straight back up and sync, but I don't think it does bootable backups, right? Yeah I know what you mean about the Rescue USB. Acronis has this too. But both of them use image formats that can't be opened by any other app. So I guess my question is this...

I was wondering whether anyone could recommend a good program to perform bootable incremental backups of my system drive, WITHOUT forcing me to use a proprietary file format. Ideally saving incremental backups to a universal format like .iso files or as actual files/folders rather than image...

Ok I just opened it up and replaced the CMOS battery. I checked and made sure all the cables were secure when putting it back together. Both GPUs are working great now!

uppercut4u, if that's true, why were things working fine in the preceding few weeks? and suddenly stop working?

Thanks DRagor. I'll be opening up my case again when I get the new CMOS battery. I'll make sure to troubleshoot all angles and display ports and report back if there are problems. Can I stop worrying about the power supply for now? or do you think I should upgrade to 1500 Watts?

Thanks DRagor. Yes, both cards work separately. Yes, both PCIe slots work separately. Yes, I can reach the BIOS with one GPU. It works. A while back I tried to enable Intel Virtualization Technology in the BIOS settings. The feature was greyed out and I couldn't figure out why. It's still...

No Display Signal Just this morning I booted up my PC and my display was blank (no signal). I have two GPUs/graphics cards. I opened up my case and tried disconnecting and reconnecting them. I discovered that if I removed one of them, I would get signal on my display. If both graphics cards are...

How do I determine if my cables are Cat5 or Cat5e? Is it worth upgrading to Cat6 or is that overkill?

Thanks for the ideas anotherdrew. I did a test over my current Wireless Setup with both very large and small files. Both seem to cap at 10 MB/s. Regarding MBps vs Mbps, when I copy a file in Windows it says: Speed: 8.65 MB/s Is this Mega Bytes per second? I just ordered a USB 3 to Gigabit...

I have two workstations at home (desktop and laptop, using Windows 7 and 10 respectively) and I'd like to routinely transfer files back and forth between them. I'm trying to find a solution that allows for fastest transfer speed. I have explored the following: Wireless Connection The two...
