About a year ago, my pc crashed while playing halo and wouldn’t post after I restarted. CPU debug light was stuck on and no peripherals or monitor would turn on. I wasn’t able to deal with it at the time and didn’t touch it for this past year except to check it every couple months. Yesterday, I...

In these times of great confusion, once again I come to you guys for help. A couple of days ago, my dad was doing something and he turned off a fuse and back on a couple of times (twice, I think, turned it off and then on, off and on again). Meanwhile the pc was working in the other room when...

The reason why I started writing on this forum is that I am tired of solving problems of my PC. About a month ago I bought a PC from an unnamed bazaar The PC was fine for a month after the purchase (that's a record), then strange things started happening. The first suspicious thing was in...

About a year ago I used to have trouble with games crashing like this, but I underclocked both gpu and vram. That reduced the frequency of crashes but it would happen once in a while. The crashes would, on some games, give me a error like "graphics driver needs to be updated", other times the...

Left my computer running a game and when I came back after roughly one hour, it was frozen on the boot screen. Ever since, the motherboard speakers keep on making a clicking/ticking sound. At some point it stops for a couple of seconds and then the computer restarts to repeat the same. I'm sure...
