Hello, I am earnestly asking for any help anyone can give me here. This problem has skyrocketed into many hours and days of frustration and exhaustion.

I have tried my best to understand what is causing my pc to crash when I game. My GPU and CPU both weren't overheating. So i was confused as to what was causing the problem. The first suspect was my PSU. As it was still under warranty, I went ahead and got it replaced. Still my issue persisted...

Lenovo IdeaPad has been great however as it reaches the end of it's life it runs slow. Is there anything else we need to do to maintain these wonderful machines apart from updates, virus and malware security patches, general file clean ups and imaging, to save them from crashing?

I recently purchased a mining rig, on a bare-bones rig frame with plenty of space, with an Asus ROG Strix B450-F motherboard installed. It has six PCI-e slots and has one each of Corsair 850W and 1000W power suplies. Windows is installed on a 256GB NVMe flash storage installed on one of the...

Hello, I just installed an 8tb HDD to my gaming pc yesterday afternoon, and when I powered on my pc this morning it would only boot to bios - not to windows. In bios I can see both of my HDDs, a 2tb and 8tb, but not the SSD I have been using as a boot drive. I have tried unplugging the sata...

Hello all, About nine years ago, I built a server for my small business using an ASRock C226 WS+. A few years ago, my parents inherited the server. Today, the electricity company shut off their electricity for a couple of hours while switching lines from an old telephone post to a new one. When...

I built a custom loop and upgraded my 10900 cpu with the 11900k rocket lake CPU and I updated my z490 motherboard with the latest BIOS update to support the new hardware. Everything worked very well when I benchmarked it all with my custom liquid loop. I reformatted everything to accommodate my...

Btw, my PC is connected to a surge protector, which is connected to a wall socket, and obviously in order to turn on the PC first i have to flip the switch on the surge protector to "ON". So today as i tried to boot up my PC, the power button on the front panel of the case wouldn't work, i...

When I try to boot up my motherboard the cpu fan spins for a bit then it just turns off. It is a biostar btc 250 pro. It happened right after a bios update so I thought thats it for sure, even tried reprogramming the bios chip before I replaced the motherboard. So new motherboard comes in, I...

So I just got my new PC build up and running, and I decided to follow the advice of many PC experts to update the motherboard's bios. Little did I know that this was a risky process (despite numerous warning in the Gigabyte @bios software), I attempted to flash my Bios. Now, I did this, and it...

Built my first pc in a long time. The system booted fine until I changed my ram speed by applying DOCP to get advertised ram speeds... They are on 2132mhz by default and should be 3600mhz. I left everything else on auto and haven’t overclocked any other component. I ran memtest86 on the default...

A while ago my computer's aux SSD failed and was causing boot errors. The computer wouldn't boot with it, so when I unplugged it and ran the other drives, windows started perfectly. I contacted Samsung for their RMA, got a refurbished 850 EVO 1TB, reinstalled everything, and got it to work for a...

Hi, I am trying to install Windows 10 on my spare server (HP Proliant DL380 Gen 5). However I keep running into issues. I have heard that for motherboards with dual sockets I need Windows 10 Pro. I have tried making a bootable USB (Windows To Go) With Rufus to make sure that it will work before...

This is an odd situation that crosses topics (storage, motherboards, general strangeness) and I'd appreciate some ideas. Yesterday I fitted a new SSD (primary drive) to my desktop - it's a Samsung 860 EVO. I swapped out the old SSD and used the same SATA and drive power cable. Initially things...

I was gifted a unfinished project. It’s a cooler master rc 830 case with a P8P67 Pro board. One of the ram slots has a busted clip and the CPU led is red. The processor doesn’t get hot at all with or without fan connected. I have a graphics card that I know works connected. No video at...

SO finally after 2 years I decided it was a good time to add a SSD to my rig. For a task that seems so simple it has caused me such a headache. I still am struggling to decide which cloning software to use but right now I am trying to Acronis True Image WD edition which I found purely from the...
