    HyperX Predator RGB Control

    You can only control it via your Motherboard's software. For the record, changing the settings on another PC won't work either, as the rams don't save the value themselves. I have an Asus Strix that does not support AURA. I've taken the rams to another computer that has a Gigabyte mobo...

    Old laptop opens the cd tray when powering it on.

    It's an old Compaq 1245. I want to restore it just for fun. I've replaced the CMOS battery, cleaned it and reinstalled WinME (will swtich to 98SE later). But this is driving me crazy. Whenever I power the laptop on, the cd drivers opens automatically. There doesn't seem to be any other...

    Hello and thanks for reading! I've been building my PCs since I have memory (starting with a PII 350 mhz back in the day). The last computer I built was a Core2Duo E6750 which I still use. Now I'm trying to build a new PC that I would use for gaming and web design and programming. It has been...
