    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    SOLVED!!!!!!!!! I played BG3 all last night and have been running Unigine Heaven for a couple hours this morning and no crashes. Also, all the WHEA-Logger warning messages in event viewer went away. So before buying a new riser cable I remembered that this LIAN LI case came with a PCIE 3.0...

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    So I was just poking around my event viewer, not really expecting to find anything I haven't already seen and the system folder is just bombarded with these errors. After looking up the event ID and vendor ID it points back to the PCIE data bus. Since this computer is Mini ITX it's using a...

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    New card, still crashing. Not just in games but also in Heaven again so it's not a game issue (Baldurs Gate 3 if you're curious). I'm ready to throw this computer out a <Mod Edit> window. Is there any chance it could be the power supply or a bad CPU. I know bad CPU's are pretty rare but I don't...

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    So I tried a new motherboard and still getting similar crashes. I will say that now Windows files aren't being corrupted, but the first time I tried playing a game with the new motherboard the screen froze and displayed some weird rainbow artifacts about 20 minutes in. This is the first time I...

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    Sounds good. I'll be gone for the holidays so I won't have an update for a few weeks, but I'll let you know when I try a new motherboard. Thanks for taking an investment in this with me.

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    Yes, I have been busy at work and trying to do the things you have suggested all week. I did a BIOS update (my version was one a couple months old) and it was successful. I am now running GIGABYTE BIOS version F7, there is a newer one than that but it's not a full release. Followed by a clean...

    Question Windows 11 System Keeps Crashing

    Hi, I recently built a new Mini ITX PC and over the course of a couple months it keeps crashing. It happens at seemingly random intervals, sometimes 2-3 times a night and sometimes once every couple days, between gaming or surfing the web. This is not the first Mini ITX build I have done, so I...

    Bootable NVME Drive

    Hello, So I am planning a build for this winter and I'm hoping to make my Samsung 960 Evo the bootable drive for Windows 10. I'll also be using the 8th gen i5 8600k and an ASUS z370-A motherboard in the buiuld. I've read about others having issues with making an NVME drive able to boot and was...

    Gaming Headset Splitter

    Hey everyone, So I just purchased a pair of A40's from Astro. It's a great headset and I'm really enjoying it. But I'm trying to plug in my speakers along with my headset so I can alternate between the two when I want. My only output for the speakers is a headphone jack so my only option to...

    Apple Headphones Compatibility with PC

    I am trying to use my Apple headphones for both voice and audio while playing games because I'm cheap and don't want to spend money on a nice headset. Anyways, when I plug the phones into the audio port I can hear the game, but when I switch it to the voice port my voice comes through but I...
