Hi all! I'm a pc enthusiast, built and fixed half a dozen towers over the years.
Really only have 1 problem I haven't been able to solve with my current build for which I will post my query.

Keeping my eyes for another post, JackSpiceE and welcome to Tom's

Hello, you brilliant, beautiful people you! I'm Maggie. I'm just your average 80's baby...been using Windows PC's most of my life, except for maybe gettin' down on some Word Munchers on the old Apple machines in gradeschool, etc. Had to take a course in B.A.S.I.C. back in high school, which, while fun, I doubt that counts for much these days.

I built my first (and current) rig in 2019...Reggie...he's been a good boy for the most part, a few issues here and there, but lately he's been particularly ornery, which is why I'm here. I've long turned to Tom's for troubleshooting tips in the past and am hoping some of you fine folks will have some idea as to what the **** is goin' on with mah baby

Off to find an appropriate thread!

Thanks in advance!

Welcome, Maggie . . and your background sounds a bit like mine. BASIC is where I started, after all.

Side note: I have to ask, is your screen name a nod to the old WASP song "Mantronic"?

Lmao, no but after experiencing the glory that is that song for the first time (i think), I kinda wish it was XD
I'm actually a Megan, but "Maggie" has been part of my gaming persona since forever. Always wanted to be called "Maggie" growin up and never could get it to stick, so I started using it for gaming, etc. The "Tronic" part is more a nod to Megatron, leader of the Decepticons, (an old nickname given by my old general manager at work)...
So, mix 'n match and add an "ic" and "MaggieTronic" was born.

LOL, awesome!

Though, I have to wonder what your old manager at work was implying... 😱

Haha!
Only the best in this case...he used to joke that I was not human, but a machine, when it came to work ethic, and bustin' my *** in general
