    PC won't turn on. Any advice before ordering new motherboard?

    Ahh yeah, that would make sense. I always linked the two problems with each other as it did appear to be due to a lack of power running to the board for a certain period of time caused issues. It can make sense that the two are different problems entirely. I've always referred to them as RAM...

    PC won't turn on. Any advice before ordering new motherboard?

    Hello people, A little back story about the faultiness of my PC. So for some time, I would try to turn on my PC and it would tell me to select a proper boot device every now and then when turning it on (it was usually more common if I'd not turned the PC on for a longer period of time, maybe...

    Have to reinstall GeForce driver each time PC boots up

    Struggling to find someone to let me install my GPU in their machine :/ Was just looking at the device manager and in the events tab of the properties for the GPU, the information states "Device PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1184&SUBSYS_28251462&REV_A1\4&160685d9&0&0009 requires further installation." I'm...

    Have to reinstall GeForce driver each time PC boots up

    I'm running an MSI GTX 770 2GB and have suddenly come to a point of having to reinstall my drivers each time I boot my PC up. Before the issue, I'd be running games smoothly at 1060p@60fps, however just before this driver update, I noticed games running at a much lower frame rate than I'm used...

    Is my GPU failing as well as overheating?

    I wrote this recently but got no responses, so decided to rewrite as things seem to be getting worse. Recently, I was playing The Crew and found the temperatures were reaching 99 degrees for my GPU as indicated by the massive frame rate drop, but since then other things seem to have been going...

    Computer randomly stops working and shows "Reboot and Select proper boot device" error

    I recently had this issue. My SSD is my boot drive and every now and then, it would start up like that. I later had to rebuild it due to moving and found my HDD stopped working. After a little work, I found the issue was the power cable from the PSU. So before going out and buying yourself a...

    Computer randomly asks me to reboot and select proper boot device + Settings returned to default values

    After doing the tests, it seems definite that the issue is the battery. I'll buy myself a new one in a couple weeks. Thanks for your help :)

    Tab broken on 24 Pin power cable

    As the title suggests, the tab is broken. I took my PC in fair a repair a while back and got it back more broken than it came. Their work was absolutely shoddy, I was just never sure until recently. ANYWAY: I'm moving and am trying to carry it with the GPU and PSU separate from the PC to be...

    Computer randomly asks me to reboot and select proper boot device + Settings returned to default values

    Thanks for the responses. I'm actually moving tomorrow so am in the process of packing my PC away. I'll get back to you tomorrow or Sunday with confirmation on it being the BIOS battery. I've strangely had a few issues that arose after taking my PC for repair just a few months ago. It went in...
