    Sluggish network performance

    Thanks for the suggestions everybody. Just as a test I tried reinstalling the NIC driver. That seems to have fixed the problem much to my surprise. It had been transferring files at 500 kbps and now is at 800 Mbps. What was odd however is that before I reinstalled the driver -- if I copied...

    Sluggish network performance

    I have a relatively new workstation set up on a 1GB wired ethernet card. The status says it is running at 1 GB. Whenever I transfer files or do anything over the network it is incredibly sluggish. To me it feels like a permissions, or security type issue -- I can't explain why exactly -- but...

    Windows Fall Creator's Update - 100% cpu - software glitches

    Hi, thank you for your comment. I'm not sure what you mean by doing a "clean" install of 10 1709. Are you talking about using the Reset Windows feature after the long update process? Or maybe doing Reset Windows BEFORE doing the Creator's update? Please clarify. Incidentally, I believe on...

    Windows Fall Creator's Update - 100% cpu - software glitches

    I tried installing the Windows 10 Fall Creator's Update about 2 months ago. After installation, I could no longer save anything in Autodesk 3ds max. If I saved a file, max would instantly crash (I believe the file actually did save successfully first -- but then the crash would occur...

    No power at all after changing video card

    The computer wouldn't boot with the old video card until I reset the CMOS. Is that normal behavior?

    No power at all after changing video card

    Thanks for the input. I'm pretty sure the card was well-seated. I really was trying to be careful. As for what I have in the system... 6700 processor. 2 sticks of 8GB RAM. 2 hard drives. 1 SSD. So not too much. The PSU is 550W. The video card was nvidia 680, i believe, which is the one...

    Asus P9X79 WS mobo memory LED is illuminated. Won't boot.

    I have a system that recently died. It will not boot at all. It's a Asus P9X79. I get a 01 Q-code which doesn't mean much. I noticed that the diagnostic lights mentioned in the manual are not going through their full cycle... from CPU to RAM to video(I think) then to HD. My system lights up CPU...

    No power at all after changing video card

    Thank you for your input. I reset the CMOS and put the old card in and with some difficulty got it running again. If the power supply is inadequate for the new video card -- would that cause it to act like it's dead? That seems to be what happened, but I guess I didn't expect it to behave...

    No power at all after changing video card

    I just changed a defective video card. It was pretty straightforward. Now, I am trying to boot the system and it is completely dead. I see the network light is flashing by the ethernet port but otherwise there is absolutely no signs of life. How should I trouble shoot this? I don't see any...

    Constant crashing - nvidia driver - please help

    Yes, Boonie -- I suppose they could be RAM related but if that was the case, would they virtually all be nvidia driver related in the logs? I would expect more random behavior as to which driver is assigned fault. This was built by a vendor -- the RAM should be fully compatible with this...

    Constant crashing - nvidia driver - please help

    I am completely lost on this problem. I am getting Windows 10 BSOD randomly and often frequently. It just started within the past 2-3 weeks and it is incredibly sporadic. I typically get at least 3-4 crashes a day. Sometimes 6+. The crashes can occur when I'm doing something in the browser...
