    Question How to transfer data off a semi-functional drive?

    Would I download one of these onto a bootable USB drive to clone the data? (I just had a quick read and I'm not sure because all of them require linux)

    Question How to transfer data off a semi-functional drive?

    Sorry, when trying to start my computer to get the screencap, sometimes it would be stuck on the BIOS menu and not boot up. When I did eventually get on, the drive shows like this on disk partitioner and if I attempt to initialise it then I get the popup window. The red circle shows what device...

    [SOLVED] need help for HDD

Windows sometimes launches slowly (taking 40-60 seconds to open) or it starts with the drive startup repair on the drive. I don't believe my drive is dead as I can sometimes access the drive...

    Windows 10 Laggy, Stuttering and High CPU Usage

    Ah! I managed to solve this! I simply did a Windows 10 reset and reinstalled all my programs BUT Nvidia drivers. And so the problem that was causing high CPU Usage + lag was Nvidia GeForce Experience drivers 382.05. Not a clue why. I'll still use shadowplay but not install the drivers!

    Can you use Motherboard + Graphics card HDMI port?

    Hey! I'm thinking of getting a PC with a Nvidia 1060 6GB. It has 1x HDMI, 3x Display Ports and 1x DVI. I want to run 2x 24 Inch 1080p monitors with HDMI. Since the graphics card has only got 1x HDMI port, there is no where to put the other HDMI. I have read up that you can use the motherboards...
