    Question Intermittent no-POST + disable iGPU doesn't stick - ASRock X670E Pro RS + 7950X3D + 4090: How to solve?

    Good god, I'm having the exact same scenario as you with: - ASRock B650M Riptide - Ryzen 7600X - 32 GB GSkill 6000 CL30 (EXPO) - RTX 3070 Ti I get both the inability to disable iGPU and the occasional boot to black screen. Here's this other guy with the same issues. Seems like it's an issue...

    [SOLVED] Windows "randomly" spending WAY too long on Welcome screen. Pls help!

    Hi there. Thanks for the reply. When I mentioned installing a release version of Windows I meant one from the release channel, which is currently build 1909 (edited OP with clarification). That one does the same thing.

    [SOLVED] Windows "randomly" spending WAY too long on Welcome screen. Pls help!

    Hi everyone. I had this PC for the longest time, and everything seemed fine until a couple months ago I started having this issue, which I hope you may be able to help me with. The thing is, in what appears to be random fashion, Windows takes an unacceptably variable amount of time in the...

    Question Needing a last bit of stability for 3200 on Ryzen

    Seems like I jumped the gun. Still not 100% there. While the system does pass 4 hours of MemTest64, it seems like gaming is not as stable. Just Cause 4 is crashing after less than an hour of gameplay. Is there anything that can be causing the RAM to fail under more CPU-intensive scenarios...

    Question Needing a last bit of stability for 3200 on Ryzen

    I just figured it out. Seems like when choosing to use DOCP in the BIOS, only the voltage, CL, RCDRD, RCDWR, RP and RAS are read from the XMP profile. For whatever reason, RC, RFC1, RFC2, RFC4, RDDL, RDDS and FAW are ignored. When I read these timings' values using AIDA64, I saw that they were...

    Question Needing a last bit of stability for 3200 on Ryzen

    Sorry for the late response. Been some busy days. Yes, latest BIOS, dated December 2018, using AGESA 1006. No issues at 2133. With the default DOCP timings, the memory has even run MemTest64 stable for some 20 minutes, but it eventually starts bugging out. Getting that "so close yet so far"...

    Question Needing a last bit of stability for 3200 on Ryzen

    I have a Ryzen 1700 on an ASUS Prime B350 PLUS motherboard with GSkill RipJaws V 3200 C14 memory (Samsung b-die). The kit seems wonderful. Enter the BIOS, select DOCP and everything is right as rain on 3200 MHz. I have even played some 3 hours of Just Cause 4 with no stability issues. The...

    The "open with" dialog is broken in build 10041?

    No matter what, I seem unable to change the default app with which a certain file type is opened. The moment I change the app, the "Always use this app" is disabled so I can't check it. Is it just me?

    G.Skill 2133 on Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3

    Thanks for your reply. However, I tried and no luck either. I even tried 1.65V and all I get is the machine rebooting to say it had issues booting due to overclocking, and reverting to the previous setting. I think I'm not going to see 2133 on this board. Heck, I haven't even been able to get...

    G.Skill 2133 on Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3

    I just purchased a 2-module set of this memory and I'm trying to get it to work on my motherboard. What I expected to do was to set the mem multiplier to 10.66 (200x10.66~2133), set the memory to 1.65, set the timings manually (9-11-10-28) and be done with it, but doing this the machine won't...

    Windows 8 consumer preview can't disable metro

    Same here. Metro may be good for a lot of people, but it's just not right for a desktop environment. Seamlessness doesn't seem something they thought about when throwing this upon us. Does anyone in this world not feel like Metro is just something slapped on, stylistically not having ANYTHING...
