Solved / Not solved. Went into BIOS and internal drive was already checked to boot first. However I went ahead and manually checked it again. Then windows had an update, that killed my audio drivers and killed my games. Updated audio drivers. Not a problem since. WTH?

I use only the rear on-board USB ports as they are fastest to the mobo, and everything seems to work great, no bluetooth lag, fast 3.0 transfers to HDD etc... So, I think the BIOS issue will be the first thing I try, however, if it's dual monitors, then this will just be a PITA for me due to...

First off, new build works excellent when running well. It's been up for a good month or two now, it's mainly a HTPC that plays games on the big screen. Other times (well all the times it's plugged in) I have a DVI connected monitor on my coffee table for silly things like photoshop...

Yeah, my sister has a dinky harddrive. But the question still remains, will another computer see these temp files and get "confused"? That's the only thing I can think of, after the format and chkdsk the external hasn't dropped once, still on the same port and all. So I am crossing the port of...

oh heck no, i don't believe in system restore, leaving residual files all up on my harddrive, and there's been no software updates or changes either. just that whole deal with the external harddrive acting weird, could possibly the hidden files that were installed on the external from the OTHER...

I just set advanced settings to maximum performance with nothing set to sleep ever. And all three or four of my random wireless network adapters were set to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power", so I unchecked them all and saved. Stupid Dell, when I install the wifi driver...

Yet again, I have all settings in my power management to NEVER hibernate or sleep, or turn off the display or whatever. And every time I am away from my laptop, the sucker has me "resume windows" when I come back, I NEED this laptop to be on because I lose wifi (legal) seeding torrents when it...

I don't really want to say fixed yet, however, after formatting and running checkdisc, the external hasn't dropped once. checkdisc found no errors. now, i did NOT exaggerate when the issue first popped up, it was non stop connecting and disconnecting literally ten/twenty times per minute non...

man, i don't know what to do, my funds don't like either of those options. maybe max out my laptop hdd with my backup files until i can afford the new enclosure and of course if it's too late, i'll need a new hdd too so i should just spring for the 2tb western digital external. suggestions...

good lord, forget icydock, if i'm dropping 50 bucks on an enclosure, i'll just drop 100 on 1 or 2tb wd external and transfer everything lol.

oh snap. desktops are rare these days (comparatively speaking, i watched a youtube video called "kids react to desktop computer" and it was a MODERN pc) but yeah, I don't have that as an option. no neighbors have one, and my sister lives in another city and has her pc back. shoot. I used...

This is a toss up between hardware and peripheral (spelling?) maybe even software causing this issue... I build my own externals with 3.5inch satas in rosewill enclosures, so I consider this a hardware issue, but it also may be software that keeps dropping the drive. So this external drive...

not trying to bump, problem is solved and i have no idea how. so i gave up and started reinstalling apps and logging into gmail and the like when a notification popped up "apps in android 6.0 something something blah blah...." and my jaw hit the floor, heck to the no I told myself while...

cleared partition cache via recovery console and even went as far as too remove sim card like someone suggested in a nexus forum. no go. also attempted to clear cache of google services, but that's not a option on the G Stylo. Also, LG hates me (attempting to find a manual sideloadable...

facepalm bleepity bleep! I went through the trouble of factory resetting the phone again on my day off (forgot MLK day was coming up) and now there's no update. Went to PRL, Profile, and LG updates (marshmallow should theoretically be in LG updates). If i had hair left, I'd be pulling it...
