strange

Working with a brand new Samsung Evo 870, and this pc has had this issue across multiple storage devices. When downloading a game through steam, and ONLY through steam, it will go well for about 15% of the download. After about that much, (It's never a consistent amount) the disk usage steadily...

Very strange. During the times these errors showed up I was using the machine normally. It did not crash or reboot, or shutdown on its own. View: https://imgur.com/a/Mio9ESx

Hi, I' m a bit confused about 2 ssd that I use. 1, the wd blue(I will call like this) of arround 500GB do not reach the speed it shuld but that is probably because on a old pc with an old sata port, the max speed I ve ever seen was 150MB/s, but the strange thing is not this but that while...

I am currently fixing up my old DELL XPS 8700 computer after a few years without using it. Long story short, pressing the power button doesn't do anything to the pc, nothing happens...sometimes. Occasionally the pc will start with a delay after hitting the power but not frequently enough not to...

Good Morning all! I have spent the whole day yesterday trying to solve this: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ISSUE: If I boot my windows 10 pc with usb devices plugged in, it won't detect the ethernet cable (so no internet connection). If I boot...

Hey, I have this super annoying sound coming from my Pc and I wonder what can it be. Some help? Here’s the sound: View: https://vimeo.com/659458664

Reading the title I realize I sound like a murderer-in-planning, but I've been having breathing problems as of late. I had exercise-induced asthma very rarely as a kid, and since then only touched my inhaler once in the next ten years at the very start of the pandemic, when I got a mild case...

Hello everyone! I have a Razer Blade Stealth 13. While checking its Disk Management, I noticed a strange, no name disk partition that holds 15GB of the main disk. Image: https://ibb.co/Qpv4hx0 My Questions are: - Is the partition safe to delete so I could get that 15GB? - If the answer for...

I bought a new gaming laptop 7 days ago and today the video card sounds weird when under load. Link to the audio file (strange noise starts after 10 sec) : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PVciJ-4PuucfuSQnR3GhnFXxEDmGCQRl/view?usp=drivesdk Edited: The laptop only works when the charger is...

Hello everyone, I am trying to do some calculations on my PC until I upgrade, just out of curiosity I was wondering if this is considered a GeForce GTX 1060 6GB like it says or is it something else? Is it being considered a GeForce GTX 1060 5 GB? like Im not crazy I promise. I just dont...

I have been having a very strange problem with my GTX Palit 660. The first time I run either Rocket League or Fortnite (the only games I play) my graphic card temperatures will shoot up, to the point of over 100c and then the monitor will turn black, the graphic card fans will start spinning...

When I try to get into windows I get a black screen, my gpu fans stop spinning and power save mode flashes on the monitor every so often which is not normal for my monitor when it’s in power save mode everything is fine in the bios I installed a new copy of windows because I thought windows got...

Hi all I wanted to make sure I'm not being paranoid but I turned my PC on today and noticed a loud vibrating sound coming from my PC. From what I can tell it has something to with a fan on the case or CPU cooler. I've had the case since 2014 - Corsair Obsidian Series 750D ATX Full Tower...

It is not: Any of the fans (stopped them one at a time to check) or any harddrives (there are none) The noise appears to be coming from the motherboard around the CPU area but I'm not sure, any ideas? https://streamable.com/6nbinh

Hi everyone, Im going crazy over this for the last couple of months. I have tplink tl-mr6400 4g router and all the devices I have from laptops to mobile phones connect over wifi to it and have normal internet access, except my phone - s10+. I am not a network expert but i know my way around...

It's not really a problem I don't think but... Sometimes (Not all the times) whenever I go to press the button to turn on my PC, it turns off for around 2 seconds and then boots back up - nothing bad happens, it just boots up as normal, no boot loop, no errors, it will never turn off by itself...

I have a AMD FX-4350 and my room is 20 degrees C. However on high load (Running a game) the max temp shown for my CPU is 19 degrees C, and on idle it's around 7-12 degrees C. How is this possible and will this effect performance/cooling. It ran okay while running the game for around 45 minutes...

So all i do is play games on my pc and im generally super careful on the sites i visit and things i download. Anyway i left my pc on and went out for half hour when i came back it had gone to sleep, without touching the mouse i used the keyboard to wake up the pc and logged back into it, which...

Can anyone explain what's happened to my hard drive and what I should do with it? MiniTool Partition Wizard shows Disk 3 looks like this: I can still read and probably write to the real partition of 2791.49 GB. Acronis True Image Home 2014 says it successfully wrote a backup to the drive last...

Hi all! I'm brand new here so please excuse me if this is in the wrong place or a totally stupid question but I really hope someone can help me here? I built my PC just before Christmas last year (my first...woop!) and everything's been going great but I have just stumbled into an issue I don't...

Hey hey, I want to apologies in advance for what might be a lengthy post, I just have no idea what to do next, so I’m sparing no detail in the hopes that someone is able to help me. I built this PC about 5 years ago. I’m not super technically experienced with building PCs, it’s the first and...

For years I have been using my monitor with an standard HDMI setup until this morning when it seemingly spontaneously decided to stop working entirely. When I woke up today and turned my monitor on I was greeted by a persistent "No Signal" message that was only remedied by moving my HDMI from...

Hello I’m currently in the process of building a vr ready machine. I was wondering if I would run into any issues with this build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qZMGjy

I'm not totally comfortable with any Windows backup program. Carbon Copy Cloner works exceptionally well on OS X, the closest I've found for Windows (my primary OS) is XXClone, which still leaves about 5% of files uncopied. So when I want an exact duplicate of a disk, I put a Live OS (such as...

hi just wondering i have amd a8 5500 with radeon hd 7560_d+r5 235 deul graphicks mem 6 gb ddr3 1600mht

I have a system built. i5-6600k GTX 960 Z170-E MoBo I am currently on a LG UM95 34" Monitor, which does 3440 x 1440 resolution. However, on Windows 10, it is only offering me 2560 x 1080 (no option for 3440 x 1440 from the Nvidia control panel). I have another LG UM95 Monitor, exact same...

If I try to run most setup.exe files from Windows Explorer (including Desktop) nothing happens and the Explorer folder (or Desktop) freezes. Doesn't matter if I click normally or as an Administrator, and doesn't matter from which User Account. The behavior is not consistent among all setup.exe...

Okay, I'm not sure I have the proper nomenclature to express myself here, but I'm going to give it a try. The way I understand it, no matter how many PCI-e slots and lanes a MOBO has there is a total upper limit to the number of lanes (and hence data) that can be moved along the PCI-e data...

I have a pretty old computer and I would like to squeeze a little more performance for gaming if I could, before buying a new one a few years down the line. Specs: Graphics Card: Sapphire HD5770 1GB CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition 3.20GHz Mobo: MSI 770-G45 RAM...

I have a problem. Basically my pc restarts every time I play GPU intensive games. I ran OCCT PSU test and it restarts my pc pretty much at random times (first seconds/10minute marathone). I cannot precisely diagnose what is my problem. It all started a month ago. Previously I had no issues with...

Hello!, Today I received my monitor, and after turning on. I have notice purple spot on the right left top of the screen. Any idea what can cause that issue? thank you! http://postimg.org/image/7e0fy6vm7/

I am creating my first (and second) builds and im using the same 700w 80+ bronze certified PSU for both since it comboes with components from both builds making it very cost efffective. However it says that it comes with 20+4 PIN 1 (600mm) x 1 CPU (4+4) 1 (650mm) x 1 6+2 PCI-E 4 (550mm+150mm) x...

Hi. I have had my computer for a little over a year now and i do not know if i need a new processor or a new cpu. Ive looked around and somethings that may be possible is bottle necking or not having a strong enough power supply. I dont know how to find those out but my PC specs are as shown...
