thanks for responding. So I went back into the Event Viewer. I didn't see any errors under system. There were a bunch of information messages. Under Summary of Administrative Events, I did see 1 critical error and it said "Kernel-Power". But I think this was my fault. I was packing up the ...
So it may be the PSU. I grabbed an old 850W one from storage and the system seems stable with it. But I'm wondering if it's just the PSU that was the problem or if some other factor caused that PSU to fail because it's a very new PSU.
Okay, so I've had a stable build for months. I've done multiple day video renders. I've done gaming. Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. Computer ran perfectly. All of sudden, today, I've had the computer shut down on me multiple times. So what happens is I'll just be using the computer normall...
thanks for all the help. really appreciate it and I'll keep your techniques in mind when stuff like this happens. In fact, I'm bookmarking this thread so I can refer to it. I'm not particularly well-versed in networking so stuff like this helps me learn. So about 2 hours after I posted this thread, ...
I've been wracking my brain over this problem. I have no idea what to do anymore. So, my friend told me she couldn't go to stamps.com on her computer at work. I try it on my computer and I can't access that website either. However, we can access pretty much all other websites. So then I try the basi...
I don't want to be mean or anything, I really want AMD to succeed here, but it seems like what we have is Intel CPUs working really well out of the box, but we'll have to wait for game devs to patch games to maximize performance on Ryzen. That seems to be a tall order unfortunately, since it's just...
So here is what CPUID HWMonitor is reporting... So just to be clear, I'm supposed to subtract 20C off the temps... I haven't used this kind of software in awhile so if there's a kind soul out there with an 1800X that can chime in on my numbers and whether they're normal for an 1800X, I would very mu...
I couldn't believe they would do something like that, but here it is, on their website: https://community.amd.com/community/gaming/blog/2017/03/13/amd-ryzen-community-update Temperature Reporting The primary temperature reporting sensor of the AMD Ryzen™ processor is a sensor called “T Control,” or...
Okay, so I have my Ryzen 1800X fully up, armed, and operational. And in the BIOS, the CPU temp is reading as 60C? Is this the normal temp? I read that AMD says we're supposed to take 20C off the reading to get the true reading? I have the Noctua NH-D15 SE-AM4 CPU cooler, Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K7 ...
so is there any way to do this nice and neat so that you can't tell it was spliced together? or do I do it further up the cable and just tie tape around it?
thanks for the explanation! it was really insightful. my next thing is this... the now-dead PSU has a great functional fan. I had a case fan die awhile back, and I'd like to use the fan from the PSU as a case fan. but the plugs are different. can anyone point me to a guide on how to swap the plugs? ...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1gnsRddWOk I'm not sure it'll come through well in the video... it starts at the 0:03 mark (3 seconds). it sounds really weird and I'm pretty sure it's coming from the power supply. the sound is stronger when I'm running the CPU at 100% (like a video encode). it soun...
there are a few free PDFs that are pretty good primers: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/robmar/archive/2012/10/23/download-free-windows-8-ebook-from-microsoft-press-introducing-windows-8-an-overview-for-it-professionals-preview-edition.aspx http://marketing.dell.com/windows-8-ebook http://blogs.msdn.com/b/m...
So, a DVD-12X drive could attempt to spin the disk in excess of 18,000 RPM at the inner tracks, which for comparison, is roughly 1.8 times the speed of a large jet turbine, and about the same as a Dremel tool operating at half-speed. ...and more than double the speed of a typical consumer hard driv...
is there any easy way (without having any measuring hardware device) to calculate how much a DVD drive uses for a computer or console under full speed? like an Xbox 360 game spinning at 12X sounds like a jet and sounds like it consumes a lot of power.
I hope it's a stale entry. I looked everywhere for a feature to remove a system. I'll dig more but I see no option to kick a system off the network. I can't believe a router would not have that option. You think a $200 router would have that feature! Anyways, thanks for the reply. Yeah, I'll start i...
Hi guys, I have a new question and was wondering if anyone knew the answer. You know my setup in the previous posts above. My Internet was slow. We have a number of users on it. I was looking at the devices connected list and one of the devices that I own was listed even though I 100% knew the devic...
thanks for the help, guys. much appreciated. my brother tested this out for me. He was able to connect a device that wasn't on the MAC list to the primary router via the SSID/password but he couldn't use the Internet. This is behavior we hoped for. However, he could connect and browse the Internet w...
I'm a little confused about what you mean by "filtering based on the WPA key". Yes, there's a WPA2/AES password on each of the routers. The issue is we're renting out a room and we told him he can have one device on the network. But we don't want him to have multiple devices on the network...
Please excuse me if I use the incorrect terms or use the terms incorrectly. I can't get a single wireless router to cover the whole house. So we have a primary wireless router and then we have 2 other wireless routers connected to it (the house is prewired). These other routers are located around th...
I'll see if I can disassemble the messed up switch. thanks for the link!
I consider the problem for the left mouse button as solved! kudos to everyone with their terrific suggestions, especially ChronoReverse for giving the cheapest and fastest route.
alright, first mistake was thinking I could control the WD40 spray... lots of cleanup afterward... :P that aside, it's only been 10 minutes of use but so far, it's been looking good for the left mouse button. no double-clicking, no rubber banding when I didn't want it, etc. Button 4 is still DOA tho...
