    How to delete a duplicate, identical Windows Boot Manager entry

    Okay, I'll first list the things I've tried, just so that's clear: - I've downloaded EasyBCD/checked bcdboot. There's only one entry. - I've cleared the CMOS. - I've read this post (the only one I could find that seems to describe the exact problem I'm having), but the solution seems...

    USB ports keep disconnecting and reconnecting.

    I've had the same issue for a little while now. Also with a USB 3.0 port. Just one, in fact, and only in combination with one certain HDD. I haven't tried out above steps as I'm in the middle of a clean install. Let's see if that changes things. PS I love how this thread is over a year old and...

    Undervolting my i7 2600K seems to affect performance

    Anyone? Also: my Vdroop seems to work reversely. Under load, voltage rises. In BIOS I can only set 'Low Vdroop' and 'Auto', so I don't really know what's going on with LLC. Ideas?

    GPU-Z VDDC doesn't change

    Funny enough most questions on here are about 'fluctuations' in the VDDC readings (core voltage). Mine stay on an absulute 1.2000 V, whether I set Afterburner to 1100 or 1300. I'm using an HD6950. If the VDDC readings of my GPU-Z installation are correct, my Afterburner overvoltages obviously...

    Undervolting my i7 2600K seems to affect performance

    Hey hardware lovers! I've been tweaking and overclocking my 2600K lately, and have encountered some things I can't explain myself, so I thought I'd throw some questions on here. First, leaving the Vcore setting on auto in my MSI P67 motherboard bios makes all reasonable overclocking impossible...

    Intel Provides Fix for Windows 8.1 Secure Boot Issue

    Bleh, all the useless Microsoft bashing. Secure boot is an uefi feature, not a Windows feature, and Microsoft chose to implement it. There is no monopoly conspiracy going on. Other than that I feel quite fucked too, because I don't have a secure boot option in my BIOS but still get the...

    HDD stops/freezes with RAID and UEFI

    Hey all, I've been busy setting up a RAID 0 array of 3 TB 7200.14 Barracuda's and have run into some problems, my latest of which is the complete but temporary 'freezing' of my HDDs when 1. loading Windows, during the logo screen and 2. during software and driver installations. The HDD activity...

    Installing W7 on RAID 0 with GPT

    It seems the uefi boot option actually DOES work! Checked the setup log, and it said the boot environment was efi. Then attempted to create a big partition and it worked. Strange it didn't work before. Actually, the bios design is quite neat: not uefi on or off, but selecting uefi on a...
