Ok so I got it working. The weird thing is that when I plugged in the new cord into its own port in the PSU, and into the HDD, then the computer shut down again when I powered it on. The thing is that this gen 13 CPU is very finicky. I have to change settings in BIOS to make it work without...

Thank you for your replies. To answer your questions about the power cords, they are the cords that were in the PSU box when I bought it. If these cords were defective then I wouldn't have been able to use them for the last year that I've had this PSU. I just took it to Best Buy and asked...

I'll try your suggestions. All the power cables I use came with the PSU I'm using. I already learned that mixing power cables from other brands can short out your hardware. I got this HDD from Best Buy but over a month ago, so I wouldn't be able to return it. If it's bad I'll just chalk it...

Ok I thought that was probably what I needed but wanted to make sure, thanks for the reply!

Yeah this is most likely going to be an update fix I assume. I tried posting on the Microsoft forums but it wouldn't let me saying I was flooding the forum trying to post to many times. I haven't posted once cause it wont let me! I'll just use a folder for downloads, thanks for the reply.

Hi, this problem just started this week probably from the latest update. I download files on my desktop to name them and put them in the correct folder. When you download a file it starts from left to right up to down so that is how they show up on the desktop as I download them. I always...

I checked the memory temp with gpu-z and it was around 80C, which is within normal range for memory temp on 3080 of what I can find. This is a new card and it's hard to believe it has dried up already. I'm also not a technician so I'm not going to take apart my card and mess with it. Thanks...

My drivers are all up to date. I updated the BIOS when I got the motherboard installed because it needed it for the CPU which is 13th gen. I only have windows defender in back ground and I have my games to run as administrator. I was getting these crashes before I installed afterburner, and...

The temp is around 74C when it crashes I don't know the temp of the ram. The storage I use for my games is Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB. There is no message after crash, just goes straight to desktop. I did change the refresh rate from 120 Hz to 85 Hz and it seemed to drop the temp and gpu clock a...

I have been getting random crashes to desktop playing most games since I put my new system together. I was hoping someone had some insight into why this might be. I have some ideas but none seem to work. My system is: Intel i7-13700k 13th gen MSI Z690 Carbon wifi Intel motherboard Nvidia RTX...
