in the end i replaced the motherboard and it worked ok.

Hello everyone!
I went with my motherboard to a local tech shop. They checked it and said that is broken, they based their affirmation on fact that pins for case speaker, power, reset, IDE and PLED...

I looked for capacitors that are bulging or leaking a brown goo and none of them have it. Everyone seems to be ok, and I looked very closely just to be sure.
For HSF I highly doubt it is the...

I have lying around a Intel PC and I thought it would be nice to give it a try with and without CPU to see if I get any POST beeps. This was done in order to see if CPU has something to do with...

Thats an option, but I was wondering if there is something else with same end result.


Well, yes and no, the motherboard itself does not have a built-in speaker, but the case has. The case...

Hello guys!
Got some problems with my desktop PC yesterday and I need some type of guidance.
The short story is that it does not boot.

The long story is that I came home, my sister told me about...

Thanks!
In my findings through internet jungle I found the same thing as you did about Windows 7, you need to "pre-load" a driver for it to work.

Also I found this, in the last paragraph it says:...

Hello guys!
Sorry if this is a repeated question, but can someone explain to me the NVMe boot on Z170 situation? I have been searching online about it but I did not find nothing more than a couple...

Yes, it is! I got my replacement yesterday and already have my pc up and running!

Well I got past this problem, it was so strange problem with my RAM and motherboard. My system worked fine for a week until now, now my SSD is not recognized by the system, it does not appear in...

Another error: disk I/O error and "The file directory is corrupted and unreadable"!

What a nice day I have!

I got more info, using CrystalDiskInfo, I get this info (among other things, these 3 got my attention):
Raw Read Error Rate: Actual = 120, Worst = 120, Threshold = 50
Reported Uncorrectable Errors:...

Not, but I like the idea, I will try it. Thanks

Hey guys! I need some help here...
So I have an windows 8 desktop with an ocz vertex 2 ssd and right now windows is not loading, it gets stuck at those circles that go round and round. Initially I...

Thanks again! It's always better when more than one people confirms that everything is alright!

Well, it's still strange, but well, if it is nothing to worry about I'll not worry about!

Thank you!!!

I don't want to overclock, if I am right the only thing overclocked is my RAM, because by default it goes to 1333MHz, to use it at 1600MHz I changed it manually, even before repair.

It just seemed...

Hello guys!
this is more a curiosity than a problem, but it could very well be a serious problem. Recently I had some PC problem, so I took it to repair. Now it's back, and there are some strange...

Thanks everyone for your help!

Thank you for sharing your opinion!

I played a little bit with my BIOS settings, I put speed at 1600 MHz, voltage changed to 1.65, and I changed timing more closely to CL9 (more exactly CL = 9, tCRD = 9, tRP = 9, tRAS = 24, tRC = 33)....

There is a monitor page in bios, but it doesn't says a word about vdimm.

Of course:
MB: Asus M4A77TD
CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 630
GPU: Nvidia GTX 8500 (in the comming weeks I'll buy an 7850 2GB)
RAM: 4GB(2x2GB) Kingston HyperX
Power supplie: Nox Urano 2 530w (in the...

General home usage, a little bit of codding and some gaming. I would like to keep my old 4GB, other wise they just get dust around my house (if you know what I mean).



I'm am not overclocking...

Hey guys! Again me, this time no PC problems, just some planned upgrade. I want to add more RAM modules to my PC, right now I have 2x2GB kingston 1600MHz CL9 (If I understand correct, CL9 is timing)...
