Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Thanks for the input, guys.
AdwareCleaner, didn't do it. In the process of getting the Malwarebytes.
@bigdogchris, no, not that, but completely new popup add windows the size of ~3"X3" with "Adds by Crime Watch" at the bottom of the add.
Also, at the same time these Crime Watch adds starts...
Hi, Folks,
After installing the latest Cool Timer, I began to see popups adds by Crime Watch every so often, and gets annoying, not to mention bogging down unnecessarily. Anyone here encounter Crime Watch before, and how would I go about ridding it off my PC?
Here are what I've done so...
Hagrid,
Thanks for the input. I had just the one drive.
System specs:
Gigabite GA-X58A-OC mother board,
12GB Mushkin Enhanced RAM sticks,
i7 930 CPU,
GTX260 GF,
1TB Seagate HDD.
Enermax Evolution 85+ 1020W PSU
Thank you everyone for helping out.
Update:
Reformatted the hdd, turned off PC, unplug power, cleared CMOS, removed battery from MB, changed boot order to CD/DVD, attempted to re-install windows 7 for 64bit, but met with "Bootmgr is missing" error.
What else can I do? This is so...
Hi,
I have 3 sticks of RAM, 4GB each into a Gigabite GA-X58A-OC mother board running windows 7 ultimate 32bit, but only 3.50GB appear as "usable", not the whole 12GB, why is this so? What can I do to get access to the rest of RAM?
Thanks in advance,
Yes, I really like the MX-1 enclosure. Too bad they don't make them any more. Do you know of one equivalent to it that is currently being made and supports drives larger than 2TB/
So, I guess even the 64bit Windows won't provide a work around or make a difference then?
Thanks, bbenz33 and Old Hippie,
Good point, bbenz33. Though I should've have paid closer attention to that, I previously installed larger drives in advertised support capacity; so I automatically assumed this one would be the same. Maybe not the case.
Now placing the hd back into original...
Hello,
I recently purchased the 3TB Seagate External USB 3.0 drive from Staples. Took the hdd out, put in an Antec MX-1 external enclosure, was asked to format drive, went ahead with request, but options in formating windows only show 1 for 349G "capacity". This doesn't sound right. So...
Thank you everyone, for helping out.
Got to the "Next..." step above, but still only show "746.39GB Unallocated", I might have missed something, but I can see what it is. Now, when right click, I don't even see "Format" option anymore. What else can I do?
How would I go about finding the drive manager, I've found the "device manager" but not "drive manager".
I've gone to this page but not sure which utility to use: http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/
I've downloaded and installed the Seatool from...
Thanks for this how-to instruction.
Got mine out, put in an Antec MX-1 external enclosure, asked to format drive, went ahead with request, but options in formating windows only show 1 for 349G "capacity". This doesn't sound right. What did yours show? Did you used it as an internal or...
Folks, for those who are on top of these great devices, what's your take on the upcoming ASUS memo pad and Samsung Galaxy Note?
Which would you purchase over the other and why? Where do you get your most update info on these devices from?
I want one that would allow additional storage...
