    [SOLVED] Monitors not being told to wake up?

    Just this week (Wednesday, to be more precise) I started getting this weird situation where the monitors won't wake up when powering on the pc until I either: Turn the PC off and back on or; Power off the entire power strip or; Use a VGA cable to connect one of the two monitors to the onboard's...

    Question Halts w/o any explanation nor error.

    I don't know an easy way to pull full system specs, so I'll try to provide what I can: Motherboard: Asrock N68-GS4 FX R2.0 (Bios Version: American Megatrends Inc. P1.00, 10/5/2015) (Swapped in at I think 2018 due to previous MoBo having had its PCIe, Network and 1 RAM slot fried due to a power...

    Question Halts w/o any explanation nor error.

    Ever since this one update that catastrophically failed to be removed I've witnessed this rare random full halt. No BSOD nor anything, everything halts, CPU load at 35%, less than 3 GB RAM load, normal (or low) temperatures... reseated the Graphics Card, the RAM card, checked and cleaned the PC...

    [SOLVED] CMOS Battery Dying? Nope, PSU failing.

    OK, I have concluded it is NOT the CMOS, and the result of the experiment was a fluke. What I concluded now it that the PSU is dying off (or rather: its capacitors), because I went out to buy a new PSU and headed out, then when I came back the PC was fully on. Confirmed: this PSU is as good as...

    [SOLVED] CMOS Battery Dying? Nope, PSU failing.

    So, here's a thing I've been noticing lately: If I unplug the computer to prevent damage from storms (sheer paranoia), when I unplug it back on the PC won't turn on. The mouse's LED will blink every second and the (external) speakers will emit a low "pop" at the same rhythm, and nothing will...

    [SOLVED] "Getting Windows Ready" EVERY time I shutdown

    OK, paused it about now. Let's see what happens tomorrow. Conclusion: didn't work. Seems Colif is right, in place upgrade or clean install are the better course of action (and at the same time will address other issues.)

    [SOLVED] "Getting Windows Ready" EVERY time I shutdown

    SFC and DISM returns no error, BEFORE this string of issues I was unable to boot into Safe Mode (Automatic Repair would kick in, check there's no issue, and send me to Recovery Environment) but now I can. Neither Reliability Monitor nor Event Viewer points anything hinting what broke it...

    [SOLVED] "Getting Windows Ready" EVERY time I shutdown

    This started happening when I was trying to solve a hard crash by uninstalling potential bad updates, one has failed critically, and then while installing updates the system froze completely. After recovering from those episodes (and finding out the hard crash was caused by overheating graphics...

    Question Reoccurring BSOD is driving me nuts!

    The thing is, before switching over one of the NVStore, I was rolling with default "solutions", including using the Standard one Windows has... And nothing did the trick. EDIT: Happened again, 11/2/2020 @4:30ish after over 6 hours of use. This and previous have two things in common: happened...

    Question Reoccurring BSOD is driving me nuts!

    And it happened again. Could be tied to Twitch.TV on Firefox, could be tied to an Windows Update, I don't know. October 31st 2020 EDIT: Oh, yes, forgot to note: Uptime was 4 hours.

    Question Reoccurring BSOD is driving me nuts!

    Not that I'm aware of, but I'd need to do an "uptime stress test" for that, which means spending over 12 hours with two twitch streams being watched (one at each screen) at a minimum of 360p each and do some gaming on the side. One thing I noted is that the NVStor that I had before replacing it...

    Question Reoccurring BSOD is driving me nuts!

    Clean Installed, I assume. Bought it custom, assembled and all, the issue started happening this year, it might be related or not to May 2020's Update. But doesn't matter if I uninstall the driver to force it to use Standard Windows or not, since it then goes for that one. Lately the issue has...
