Just bought a Corsair CX650M power supply to go with an msi k96npgm2-v motherboard. Pc part picker says they are compatible, but the CPU power cord doesn’t fit in the socket due to a component on the board that is blocking the cord from going into the socket. The socket has 4 pins, but the cord...

Noted, thanks a bunch! I got the drivers on a 2.0 flash, so hopefully it works (the pc and motherboard have 2.0 headers).

As the title implies, I'm attempting to switch out the motherboard of a windows xp machine to an msi k9n6pgm2-v motherboard, but I don't have the installation disc, and the machine doesn't have acess to the internet, as it only has service pack 2. Will I need the installation disc to install the...

I'm trying to get it working on an xp machine. I think my main issue is the actual pc's drivers arent upated, but it's only way to connect to the internet atm is a dial-up modem. I'm in the process of hunting for my old usb wifi adapter, but I can't find it

I purchased the card off ebay. It doesn't show up in the control panel at all. I don't have the pc near me, but it's an HP Pavillion and came with Windows Media 2005. I'm gonna be testing it on my current windows 11 pc to see if it shows up at all

I don't have the system specs, it was an old HP factory pc with windows xp media edition from like 2005. The model number is SB1040, at least that's what it says on the card. However, the pc has a new hard drive and a fresh install of XP Home Edition with SP 2 because the original hard drive was...

I worded that terribly. It doesn’t plug into the power supply

So my windows xp’s sound wasn’t working, and I thought that the sound device on the motherboard wasn’t working, so I installed the X-Fi Xtreme sound card. Still no sound, so I went to the website and installed the files via usb (this pc has no internet) and when I try to open the control panel...

So I've been trying to get a machine up and running with windows xp. I got a new hard drive for it, but I failed to realize my copy of XP is meant to be an upgrade, and the hard drive for this one is completely brand new. Thing is, I don't have any copies of the actual windows xp os. Is it...

So my girlfriend's family managed to rescue their old Windows XP machine that has about 3 years worth of pictures on it that they want off. I managed to get the PC to boot up once, but once I turned it off, it just won't boot properly anymore, no matter what I did. I thought maybe I could just...

It wasn't used for much. Mostly online video games like Overwatch. It stored my highlight videos and those online games, but that was about it. I also got it brand new as a gift for my birthday, and it was working just fine until now. I also noticed that in other devices device manager the only...

My motherboard is an ASUS TUF Gaming B550M-Plus. No, it does not show up in bios. Yes I removed the battery while the system was unplugged. My BIOS is American Megatrends, Inc. 0803, SMBIOS version 3.2. I'll try the Samsung app. EDIT: It does not show up on the Samsung app and I don't have a...

So I accidentally hit my restart button on my pc while in the sign in screen where I input my password, and when it restarted, it told me windows didn't boot up correctly, so it had me restart again. Now my Samsung EVO 970 SSD (a NVMe M.2) won't read anymore. It doesn't show up in the Disk...

I was already going to upgrade the CPU, Motherboard and RAM eventually, but I’m still saving up for it. I could technically buy the parts right now if I wanted to, but I’m trying to avoid spending that money immediately. Also I’ve tried leaving either hard drive out and boot up but I got the...

I’ve already replaced the PSU, so it’s not like that. And I haven’t plugged the NVMe back in since then. I unplugged it immediately after it turned off. I haven’t even tried to plug it back in
