Problem:
The system hangs while booting to any device USB/NVME at random times, spinning windows dots, after you get into WinPE and start doing something... However, if you boot from the NVME drive and make it to full-blown windows, the system is rock solid. No crashes, doing anything rock...
Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction.
Problem: PC spontaneously restarts after running perfectly for 1.5 years. It only happens randomly restarting during gaming sessions (pubg). There has been no BSOD's, just like someone hit the restart button and the machine lost...
Is it me or do you also feel let down by AMD in terms of APUs. I mean here we are a hell of a long time after ATI was taken over and the bold claims of APU’s coming to dominate and bring AMD to glory. Ryzen is only IMO almost evenly matched to intel because of price and more cores. It’s still...
Been watching and waiting to pull the trigger for a while, but this is a great price!

Hello All,
(Skip down if you don't give a hoot about the story)
I'm by no means electrically savvy I have basic knowledge on how to use a multi meter... However here's how the story goes.
I was given two intel P3700 NVME drives as engineering samples to test and use, however I hit a snag. It...
Hi All,
Need a picture of the resistors around the mounting screw by the audio jacks in the rear pannel. I think i may have broke a resistor there with a slip of the screw driver just wanted to verify. I also need a picture of the chip and what ever is in front of the 2nd PCI 1x slot as i found...
Hi,
I've been looking into making a new server to replace my old EH490 windows home server.
I was planning on making a whitebox sever, and was considering waiting for Devils Canyon, but I have a feeling there is no point because it probably won't be much of an upgrade over my 2600k @ 4.9...
I find that many times Windows has all sorts of default's that slow and stall out a computer. It's especially noticeable when you have an SSD and it takes 30 seconds to wait for a network connection to fail before it continues with the logon.
Please post tweaks here.
My few have been...

Hey All,
I'm stumped, I don't know what more to do or where to post...
I have a NVS 4200m and everything is working but the Intel drivers it installs. I get an error code 52 on the device which means the driver is not signed.
I can't get the internal Intel gfx to work unless i boot...
When I first bought my 5870, I looked around for monitors I could use and there really wasn't any DP monitors out. That was back when the 5870 was first released in. ( Bought one of the first offered in retail here in Toronto)
I've waited till now for GOOD support for an eyefinity setup and...
I'm stunned that there isn't a list of super thin bezel monitors out there yet.
I have a BenQ 24" which has a bezel which is fairly large but at the office I bought a Syncmaster 2343BWX, they are cheap at 180 each and offer 2056x1152 which is not bad instead of the 1600x1200 by cheaper...
So I purchased a Palit video card back in 2008 HD4870 512MB. Form day one the second DVI port did not work, but I didn't notice until about 3 months after owning the card. Fast forward a few months and I try to RMA the card, only to find out there is no telephone number, the website does not...
So I took ownership of the files on my XP slaved drive in windows 7, now I get a Hall.dll is corrupt when trying to boot form it?
I tried just adding sercurity permissions first but was a no go since the same computer name and user name were used on the windows 7 installation.
Any ideas?
Hi All,
I've salved many drives before with out needing to take ownership of the drives when I slaved them in USB or Esata. However, now on windows 7 I get a permission denied and I have to take ownership to see the files. the problem is if I do this I find that it skews the OS on that slaved...
Hey Guys,
Generally when I upgrade I look for at least 50% more performance. I've been eying the new i5's since I could never really bite the bullet on a i7 920 because of the retarded prices of the motherboards.
I know the i7's are the fastest but for about 450$ Canadian I can get a...
Sorry wrong title..
but wanted to know what people though of the UD2 as the best overclocking value motherboard... Or what do you recommend for a p55 as the best value OCer?
Hi Guys,
I see all the problems that people are having with the DVI ports but I don't think that's my problem because all of my displays work though the one DVI port on the left (looking form the back) yet nothing will output or detect if i hook something to the first port. I see my screen...

I'm intrested in sliing my 7800GT, i'm going to buy a used 7800 to keep cost down and bring my speed up a bit.

Has anyone sucessfully flashed the bios of a GT to make it think it's a GTX regardless of...
Hey all,
Just wondernig, I know how everyone keeps saying that the 4 extra pipe lines are cut, but are they visable or are they inside the die?
Reason I ask is because if you think back to the Socket A chips form AMD they where laser cut and you could get the unlocking kits or draw in the...
