I had an issue like this, when I installed Windows 7 onto my PC. If I remember correctly, setting your BIOS to CSM mode might fix it.

As the title suggests, I'm wondering if I can mark sharpie onto the inner ring of a DVD. I recently came across a 2-pack of Mini-DVD-RAMs, and the discs are two-sided, so there's no actual 'label side' of the discs. I ask, because it seems the inner ring is the only place to label it, as even...

Just got a new monitor (See bottom right of pic) a couple days ago. Micro Center had it on sale for $300, so I grabbed it as quickly as I could... (Hey, for what it is, I thought it was just that good of a price) ...Finally my step out of 1080p, so I'm pretty happy xdd I also had to get a wall...

From all this microtransaction, loot box, Epic Games, etc type of nonsense, that's bringing down the gaming industry as of right now, I started looking around for some older games n stuff that'll give me the 'right' experience, rather than having the higher ups at these companies trying to suck...

Been de-ghetto-ing my build n stuff. Mostly just the fans, because I had to cheap out on those when I originally built the thing. Trying to transform it from a Kmart build into a Best Buy build :p Ignore the hideous 24-pin connector. Replacing that... (Sorry for all the pics, but these are...

Okay. Sorry, I'm dumb. A BIOS update solved the issue. Now the CPU sits comfortably around 75°C max, during Prime95. (With no freezing. Woo!) Sorry for not thinking of that sooner.

Important Stuff: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X. Old RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V @2400MHz. New RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro @3000MHz. GPU: Gigabyte 1660TI 6GB. PSU PowerSpec 80+ Bronze 750w Mobo: MSi B450 Tomahawk This problem had just started for me. I first noticed it, when I was playing GTAIV and...

Thanks for letting me know, cuz like, I'm not trying to fry something lol. Either way, I've finally zip-tied everything down, so it's probably gonna stay in that spot for quite some time now..;.

Component cables were compatible with the PS2 and PS3 only, so your only real options are Composite, UHF, or maybe S-Video (I forget if the PS1 supported S-Video, or not. The PS2 and PS3 did though...) Though, if you're going to be playing PSX games on a flatscreen, you'd be better off using a...

OK. First build and stuff. With the case I have, I'm left with little room in some areas, so I'm thinking of routing my 8-pin CPU power connector up under the GPU (see image). But I'm just wondering if it's entirely 'safe' to have it so close to the GPU, as it's almost right up against the...

Yeah, I used Classic Shell back when I had to use Windows 8.1. It was really well built, but uhh.. Isn't that just for the Start Menu, really? Also, wow. Just the name itself gave me flashbacks to when people had to get 3rd party Start Menus. Thanks for that, lol I'd imagine I'd be able to...

So, with the End of Support coming closer (January 14th, 2020), what does this mean for those still using it as their day-to-day OS? In my case, I had to put in effort to bring my laptop from Windows 10, to Windows 7. (I don't really like Windows 10's UI) So, with that said, what exactly are...

Alright. Lemme give ya a little bit of context. I still had the original documentation that came with my bluetooth dongle. Said documentation included a 'driver' URL for computers that needed it (claimed the software supported, like, Vista to 10). Unfortunately, it redirected to a generic...

No, the dongle itself seems to install fine. But upon trying to pair my bluetooth headphones, three of the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device[s]" come up empty, while two of them install as COM ports... For what I see, one of the three missing drivers are tied to the bluetooth audio connection with...

Okay. My current day-to-day laptop (Toshiba Satellite, if anyone cares) used to run Windows 10... But soon I got sick of the current Microsoft bs, so I decided to wipe the drive and start fresh with some good ol WIndows 7. Fast forward to the present... For some reason, my Insignia (or...
