I'm building a new PC, so I ordered a new PSU: "Adata XPG Core Reactor 850W". I noticed that the power cord that came with the PSU (the one that connects the back of the PSU to the wall) has a plug that looks like a "Type E" or "Type F" plug as shown here...

I've tried everything Startup repair doesn't work Comand prompt sfc/scannow doesn't work System restore doesn't work Uninstall last quality update doesn't work My last resort is to do a system reset and keep personal files but I'll have to reinstall all programs I want to use going forward...

So my motherboard (Asus ROG Strix B550-F) needs the latest BIOS update so that the 5600x is compatible. If I were to update the BIOS using the traditional way and a sudden power outage came out of nowhere, the motherboard will be bricked. However, if I were to update the BIOS using the Bios...

So i plan on upgrading my pretty old graphics card from ASUS GTX Strix 970 to an MSI RTX 3070 Ventus 2X OC for the long run and i don't plan on buying another GPU for like a long time. But i'm a bit worried that with my current setup there might be major problems such as bricking my CPU or...

Hello all, I just installed a second RX 480 8 GB today (no need for a crossfire bridge) and it is not detected by my PC. I already tried reinstalling the AMD software and that didnt work. The second GPU does work though because I tried playing it by itself. Any suggestions? My motherboard is...

Hi all, Long time lurker first time poster. I built a new PC with a 9700K and a Z390-E. Booted on first try. Decided against my better judgement to update BIOS to latest version before installing Windows. Quick formatted a 32 GB USB drive using FAT32. Downloaded the latest driver (version 1602)...

I recently encountered a serious problem for which I have found no answer. As of Saturday night, my custom-built PC was working wonderfully. In the tech world, it's starting to get old (built in July of 2014), but it's still a powerhouse of a computer for someone like me. I noticed there was a...

So tired going back on an update for my motherboard and I guess I did the non WiFi version of my board or somthing but I did everything right and once I restarted it wouldn’t boot up it would power on but the q-code up top was “0F” And I looked it up and it has somthing to do eight he...

So the "long story short": i bought an used Sapphire RX 580 8GB Special Edition like a month ago, and the guy mentioned that he messed up the second (silent) VBIOS, so that doesn't work at all, my motherboard was hanging on VGA debug LED if i wanted to use it. I decided to fix it, so i started...

This site is probably my best shot of getting help so I'll start here. Long story short, I can't make my Asus laptop boot and I will RMA it. I read that Asus might delete my data and since I don't have backup of my files, I'm looking for a way to transfer them to an HDD before I send it. I've...

Hey all! I recently tried to update my bios to version "1.A". It successfully completed updating the BIOS using M-Flash. It then rebooted and said it successfully installed the update to "ME" as well. It then said it would reboot after 5 seconds. After the reboot, the display never turned on...

i was being an idiot and plugged in a wire that was meant for new installations into my computer (the pci-e cord) onto a port labeled UART1 and my computer was plugged in at the time and the moment the prongs kind of touched metal my whole computer shut down, fans, lights, everything. Pressing...

My motherboard's bios died about a month ago, when I tried to update the bios, but it failed. It got my pc stuck in a boot loop, I pressed the power button, but it turned off about a second later everytime. I tried removing the cmos battery, using the clear bios pad, but nothing worked. I...

I have an Europe LG H960A 32gb with unlocked bootloader that used to have Android Nougat. While trying to manage with the TWRP recovery I accidentally cleared all the filesystem (Android included) and rebooted with no OS or ROMs. So now I can't do anything, and the phone is stucked on download...

I made a very big mistake and disabled the intregrated graphics (Intel HD 4600) on my Lenovo y410p. Now nothing is ever displayed, period. Safe mode doesn't seem to be an option now in Windows 10, and I found the cmos battery but it's soldered in and I don't have my tools handy nor do I really...

In the description and even in the comments, it is said that this Quantum3D Mercury Brick scales well( View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nwx3UGf8gk ). But why? Is it because they are just 3D accelerators or is it because they render odd and even scan lines...

Hi I bricked my phone and now I need a ROM for my on5 g550t1. I spent over 20hr over the past 3 days trying to find/fix the ROM. Many stock ROM's I try'd would fail. I used ODIN. I don't remember witch of these I used that worked ; G550T1UVU2AQC4_6.0.1_4File_USA Metro PCS (folder with AP, BL...

I recently built my PC, and began playing some Steam games, but however have found that many, not all, of my games don't have audio. I have read around that it is necessary to reinstall DirectX, but every time I do so, I receive the following error: "An internal system error occurred Please...

Recently I noticed a slowdown in online video playback (Youtube videos, Twitch VOD's, etc.) and looked at my task manager to see if there was a bottleneck and found that my Disk usage was at 100%, due mostly to the "System" process. I've looked into a number of different solution (listed below)...
