    Alright, so motherboard failed, bought a new one and have an issue

    3.5 for both. What I want is to be able to click the volume button and choose "speakers" or "headphones". I had this option before I replaced the motherboard, and this simplifies things so I don't have to unplug my headphones every time to use my speakers, I can just click the option instead in...

    Yeah it's a new one. I don't think I'll want to clean install for another week or two. Thanks for the input though. Edit, you mean windows, right?

    Alright, so motherboard failed, bought a new one and have an issue

    I replaced my old mobo, everything was working fine except that when I connect a pair of speakers and headphones, I don't get the option to switch between the two in the volume panel. I had the option before the mobo switch, so I don't know what's wrong with it.

    Looking for the smallest HTPC case possible for these components

    Next year I'm planning on building an HTPC and I'm currently looking up cases on PCPartPicker. The only issue is they're all big enough to carry a full sized GPU, and I'd rather not use one that big as I'm planning on using a AMD Zen/Vega APU next year(which should be more than enough for...

    Case fan won't slow down.

    It's always running at 1500 rpm, even with the 'silent' option enabled in the BIOS. It's the loudest part of my rig. Any ideas?

    I keep getting Code 43 no matter what!

    Also, it works for 3-4 boots after a fresh install of Windows and installing the updates/drivers, should have specified that. After that, it's "Code 43". Once it fails after those few boots, I'll reinstall the drivers, and it works until I restart just once, and then I'll get "Code 43". I've...

    I keep getting Code 43 no matter what!

    I keep getting Code 43 which is "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)" with graphics. It seems Windows doesn't want me to have graphics, period. I've tried uninstalling the driver, reinstalling, updating. Nada. I've reinstalled Windows and it always...

    Intel HD graphics not working

    My system always defaults to Windows basic display adapter, even if Intel HD graphics is installed. It says that there was an error 'code 43' which disables Intel HD. Then if I roll back the driver, and reinstall Intel HD, it works until I restart, where it's disabled again. I need to get this...

    GTX 970 now or wait until Polaris or Pascal?

    Just built a new PC and have no gpu... I really wanted this PC to be a lower power build so chose Intel skylake i5 at 3.2 ghz... 65 watts! Now I'm itching to play some games and wonder if it'll be worth the wait... Kinda ruins the point of buying all power saving parts if I jump the gun on a...

    New PC build... Won't turn on... Disassembled and saw CPU pins bent... Is this the problem? Nothing turns on on boot. Fans

    I have a new mobo arriving Tuesday. Minimum components would be PSU and main power (20/24 pin) connector, CPU 4 pin, RAM, and drives, right? Should it boot right off the PSU? What I mean is with no power button other than the PSU. It should boot with just those components/connections, right?

    New PC build... Won't turn on... Disassembled and saw CPU pins bent... Is this the problem? Nothing turns on on boot. Fans, lights, etc. Shouldn't the fans at least turn on.
