    Question My PC freezes randomly (requires hard boot) and it's giving me a big headache because it's too random and I can't replicate consistently for support.

    I don't think anybody is ever gonna read this but I've done it guys. It's 2021 and I found out it was the mother board, a m5a97 R2, I've changed it after testing every other component and the freezes stopped.

    Question Mouse sensitivity in games got higher but windows 10 sensitivity stayed the same?

    [SOLVED] When I access Task Manager > Startup, I have 3 "HD Audio Background Process". Is this normal?
