    Installing an OS on a new computer. Windows is looking for "a mass storage driver for installation"

    Hey, Try this. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2343964/mass-storage-driver-laptop-wich-formated-hdd-install-windows.html Also, usb 3.0 doesn't load until after windows has loaded, which is why it wouldn't work.

    Back panel cable management

I have a corsair 780t case with a ton of room in the back panel for cables, but with all of my cables routed back there (a lot) it is pretty messy. I have used Velcro straps on cables and...
