Recently my rig has been locking up easily. Here's what happens: When I start up my PC it takes forever (5400 rpm slowness), but usually after it gets settled I can open as many internet browsers as I want, 30 MS words if I wanted. Lately, I can only do 3 or 4 tasks and I have to be careful...

I am looking at trying to divide the on-board USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports into 2 different PCI lanes. I think the best way to do this is within the bios with the xHCI and EHCI settings, however after trying dozens of different settings, I cannot get it to do what I want. EHCI is for 2.0 USB xHCI is...

How do i re install microsoft office onto my laptop? I have the key number where do i use it? Can i have a link given to me to re install ? It seems hard to find

Seems to me, the Intel CPU labelled as low powered are just identical version of the regular CPU BUT with their max running frequency capped. If I don't push my box often and am mostly running near idle speed, seems like a low power cpu doesn't do me any good as far as electricity saving or...
