Thank you for letting me know. I'll be checking out the dimensions for a PSU, and eventually buy a decent GPU that I can use. Thank you so much for specifying.

Thanks for the reply. I wanted to ask about the GPU and PSU just to be sure. would I be able to install a 1660 6GB (that has a 450w req.) by just replacing my PSU with another that has 500W? I'd like to know if the PSU size matters, since the case that the prebuilt came with is really small...

Hello, I'd like to ask if I can replace the parts of my prebuilt Lenovo PC (branded). I've been looking into various GPUs that I could use, but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to replace any other parts beforehand. The motherboard looks old, and I don't know if I have to replace it or not if I...

How can I do that? I'm not an expert, and it will be quite difficult to figure that out.

Is there any way I can stop this from happening? I won't be getting a new battery any time soon, and I don't want to leave my laptop in the dust just for this issue.

I've had this issue for a while, and if it's not a bios update then I wonder why it redirects me to a flash utility that requires me to have a battery.

I haven't disabled that option. At the moment I'm having trouble even getting to the lock screen, since I cant get past the "preparing automatic repair" on the boot screen. When my laptop restarts, as I said, I'm redirected to a bios utility tool screen which had the dialogue box. In that menu I...

My laptop's model is an ASUS X540UB.

Today I've booted up my laptop to see "Preparing automatic repair" "please wait while we install a system update". Laptop restarts, and I'm greeted by the bios utility tool with a dialogue box with "check system power error, please check battery is connected". My laptop's battery stopped working...

Well that's a shame. I guess I'll just save up to buy a desktop pc. Laptop's working decently for now. Thanks for the recommendation though.

Opened device manager and saw that my system firmware couldn't start, so I decided to try update it which worked. Restarted my pc for the update, and when my laptop was booting up I was greeted by a beautiful asus flash 3 utility thing or whatever. Message said that I needed a battery that is...

Well, just software and files left on my pc, perhaps games and more. Just looking to remove all that and perhaps fix another issue I'm having with my keyboard.

Yes, my laptop can run without the battery. I've already stored my desired files onto a usb, but I'm looking to use the option to reset my pc just to clear up some junk I don't need. What I'm having trouble doing right now is figuring what this error is and how to solve it so I can do the reset...

A few months ago the battery for my laptop died, and I keep getting these bios errors every time I restart my pc about checking if my battery is connected and if it has sufficient power, 20% or more. Is it perhaps an attempt to update the firmware of the bios? To update it you need a battery...

Yeah.. My memory right now is at 44%. I just restarted my laptop. I have 8 GB of ram, and i have a 1 tb hard drive, not ssd. (Planning on upgrading to ssd) The programs that are currently using the most memory are: Chrome, 400-500mb. More when watching videos etc. BitDefender, ranged from...
