I got rid of XTU in the way I did out of desperation, as trying to open the add/remove programs did the "open on another screen that doesn't exist and refuse to move over" thing. I have since tried to remove it properly, but it spits out the same error. The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 7567 (not...

I recently had to resort to safe mode to get rid of XTU on my laptop (i5-7300HQ) as the system was freezing every time XTU initialized following a windows update.This was a mere -.085mV undervolt, and it had 6 hard restarts for the watchdog to disable it. I removed it by deleting it from...

MY family will soon be replacing the aging living room PC (an HP Pavilion slimline with an Athlon X2 250 and nForce 430 graphics). They've brought up the potential route of buying an optiplex or similar such desktop from goodwill or a government auction, so it won't come with windows. If they...

It fixed itself, only one RAM slot works, or it doesn't like Any of the following: Double sided modules, PC66 or 133, or 128MB modules. It has accepted its original single sided 64MB PC100 stick

I picked up an emachines etower 633ids for free on craigslist. Worked perfectly upon getting it home, though the power button couldn't turn it off again. Now when I turn it on, there is no video out and it beeps in the manner in this video. What does it mean and how can i fix it...

The mobo has M5ALC printed on it, and a North/Southbridge of ALI M1541 and 1543 respectively. As far as I can tell, the system's vintage is 1999 or 98. MSI has no record of this on their site and customer support has no idea what it is either. I know Tom's is a more modern place, but I don't...

well, if all you're doing will be intensive single-threaded workloads, I'd say go with the 7567U. I'd say the 7600U with a raised TDP is a good idea too but it hasn't been put in a machine with sufficient cooling for it . Idk what those morons above were on about, the U-series chips are very...

First off, relevant specs: i5-4200U CPU, intel HD4400 and Radeon R7 M265 GPUs (latter not involved I think) 8GB RAM, screen resolution 1366x768, Windows 10. Oh and youtube is using the HTML5 player. As the resolution is what it is, youtube's player sets itself at 480p. Idk if it does this with...

Scratch that, after initially having watched it spin for an hour, I restarted it, and 4 hours later it actually got somewhere... About a minute after I posted this thread and 15 after I petrified myself by google.

I am not in the Windows Insider program. I've tried the periphery fix google results suggested. It's still stuck on a black screen with a loading wheel. If/when Microsoft puts out a patch, how the hell am I meant to put it on if I can't get into the OS to download them? Will I have to somehow...

It will not allow me access to it. It has been assigned the letter F as its address and ESP as its name. Its size is 296MB, of which 49.2 have been used. After a little bit of figuring out what it is, I found that it is the partion of the main drive, an HDD. However, its file system is listed as...
