    Question Western Digital HDD swap U12 chip

    After nearly four years of back & forth with a blown HDD, I've finally gotten my drive to spin. But now, my U12 chip from the original board (the controller chip) doesn't seem to work. I've swapped the chip and literally NOTHING happens: no USB connected tone, no spin, nothing. So I swapped the...

    Question No Mouse Function: A Real Head Scratcher!

    As upsetting as it is, I think I need to just bite the bullet & buy a new mobo. I build graphics for a living so I guess it's a good way to write off as a business expense. Shame: I really loved that computer I hope I can find one compatible with my CPU as it was of pretty good quality when I...

    Question No Mouse Function: A Real Head Scratcher!

    I actually have one card in a PCIe slot and another expansion added to the drive slot in the front of the tower. They also don't recognize wireless or wired mouse. As far as flash drives: the computer recognizes flash drives I bought at Micro Center, but don't recognize Sandisk drives. I...

    Question No Mouse Function: A Real Head Scratcher!

    Yes, Windows 10 (sorry, meant to say that must have forgotten). Safe mode was the same thing. No mouse in bios either. I ran these commands in Powershell: dism /online /cleanup-image /CheckHealth dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth sfc /scannow Even a clean install hasn’t solved the...

    Question No Mouse Function: A Real Head Scratcher!

    Okay so I’ve been trying to fix this for 2 days now, and I’m completely stumped! 3 nights ago I was streaming from Hulu while straightening up the house when my computer froze. It froze so bad that literally everything stopped: mouse, keyboard, even the power button on the tower. I had to...

    Please help me with a school project by taking a very short survey about CPUs!

    Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete my survey. I really appreciate all your answers, it has helped immensely with my project. I will have another survey to do later in the semester, and I'll take your criticisms and suggestions into account. Again, thank you so much folks!

    Please help me with a school project by taking a very short survey about CPUs!

    Hello folks, I'm doing a hypothetical feasibility report for one of my classes and I decided to do my report on CPUs. I need primary data, so I made a survey. If you have a few minutes (shouldn't take more than 3-5 minutes), could you PLEASE take my survey for me? I will be forever in your debt...
