I used the one on gigabytes support page for my mobo: https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-AX370-Gaming-5-rev-10/support#support-dl, driver > chipset > [2.07.21.306] (the 2nd latest, I don't have an apu so assumed I didn't need the top one). After I forced a restart, my pc wouldn't turn on...

Driver yes, I didn't put it on a drive though I just double clicked the installation file after downloading. So I should force this to restart first?

I am troubleshooting instability with crashes when xmp is enabled. I downloaded and installed the latest chipset drivers from Gigabyte, it installed fine but it's been half an hour since I clicked restart and the screen has stayed black. The mouse and keyboard lights also went off however the...

I'll be honest i don't know what that means for me(the only Hitachi product I really heard about was the wand so I've no idea the quality of their other products). I picked this one on the recommendation of my ex when I built my pc 3 years ago but I'm happy to go with another brand if you have...

Thank you, I'm in the midst of backing up now to an external drive. If there's any issues copying certain files is there any chance of recovering them? There's only one file I was unable to open before I started trouble shooting but I didn't test others. I'll be honest I don't really get the...

I thought that'd be the case (i'm not really surprised as when I went to check how long my warranty was I noticed a lot of newer reviews say this drive failed within a year, mine has been going since 2018 so I guess I got the better end of the deal). I have one question though (just out of...

This is what I have from HHDScan View: https://imgur.com/a/Ak8arRp I was running a test scan with that program but someone tried to use the pc while it was scanning and windows crashed again

I think it is. I woke up and my scan says it failed to finish, it was still going from 5pm to 5am at least (i couldn't sleep and checked). I used HHD Scan smart tool and it's got a red state for Reallocation Sector Count and yellow states for Reallocation Event Count and Current Pending Errors...

Am I able to install and use those tools if its still scanning? I don't want to interrupt it and start again

So I've got 2 hard drives installed, one 500gb ssd (which has my OS, dev programs and games) and a 3tb HHD which I basically store old photos/completed art on. I've noticed the transfer between the 2 is taking an astronomical time, and sometimes when I've clicked the pc while it's trying the...
