At first the pc would get to the loading windows screen then reboot, then boot fine into windows. Did this for about 3 days. After that when I powered it on the fans would just start going and no post, no display, and keyboard/mouse wouldn't even light up. Figured it was mobo so I got one. First...

Hello, I am in dire need of assistance. I have an older Toshiba laptop that is either a L55 or something for the model from 2012 (don't think this is that important) that won't start up. It was working fine as of last night, it isn't a virus or anything, and I do not believe it recently updated...

Yesterday I managed to build my new PC, installed a windows on it, it was a little complicated at first, because I had an older version of Windows, but fortunately I could download a newer version, and it started to work. But the problem is: after 2-3 of usage, I turned off the computer, and...

I switched on my PC once I'd finished it (first build) and it lit up, fans started spinning etc. it seemed fine. It took me 5/10 seconds to figure out how to turn on my new monitor and by this time the PC was dead. It won't turn back on again. I'm not sure if anything was displayed. I've watched...

My brother's PC recently stopped working - it wouldn't turn on at all. So I initially tried the process of elimination, and started taking out components one at a time - only to find out it would 'start' (lights come on, but wouldn't boot) when the GPU was taken out. So I tested out his GPU in...

When i tried to turn on the computer it didn't. All the lights including keyboard and mouse light turned on the fans were spinning at full speed but there was no display. All the components are fairly new except the power supply. Edit: Also there when i clicked on the mouse there was a sound...

Hi Should buy Intel processor (example 8600K) including Spectre and Meltdown bug or wait for next generation?

Hello, I just purchased an 850 EVO from Best Buy to replace in my 2012 13" Macbook Pro. Yesterday before the install, I checked it to see if it was working by connecting it via a toaster, and it read as 120GB. Odd, but I decided to roll with it as I knew there may be something wonky going on...

Have desktop PC with VGA output and monitor with display port input. Is there an adapter that will effectively bridge the two??

Hello. I am 16, and I live with my mom. I recently built a rig with a GTX 960 and we could see the power bill go up about $30. I'm really interested in saving for the 1080, but I want to know how much it will add to the power bill. I'd feel really bad making my mom pay a lot of money. I use my...

I want windows as my OS, but I have never built my own PC before. I'm confused about what I should be buying for my OS. Do I have to buy it directly from the microsoft store? I want to buy it off Amazon for cheaper. Also, can I put it in a USB instead of using the disc?

Hi! I've bought a new motherboard, and when I'm about to connect the video card to the PCI-E X3 slot, it gets in the RAM's way. What should I do? The R9 390 doesn't fit right! Thanks.
