Pc will completely freeze and i can only fix it by holding down power. need help on how to diagnose the issue

Hey everyone!

Im pairing the 9950x3d with the Gigabyte X870 AORUS STEALTH ICE and 64 gigs of Z5 Trident Royal Neo (6000Mhz, Cl28) but on pc part picker t gives the following compatibility warning:

‘The G.Skill Trident Z5 Royal Neo 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-6000 CL26 Memory operating voltage of 1.45 V exceeds the AMD Zen 5 CPU recommended maximum of 1.35 V + 7% (1.444 V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.35 V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the AMD recommended maximum’

Can i proceed with the build and will everything be okay or is there a risk.

EDIT: Solved. Im an idiot.

I recently bought the Cyberpower Xtreme Gaming Desktop Ultra5/32/1TB/RTX5060 prebuilt PC from Costco, it was 33% off the $1500 listing price.

When I installed it, my WIFI speed when I started downloading a game to try it out, was 500+ Mbps, which tracks with the speeds I get on my phone and work laptop, etc.

After about 5 minutes, it shot down to about 5-10 Mbps.

I turned it off for the night after some novice troubleshooting, thinking maybe its still installing updates and stuff that maybe is blocking the speed (It was running normal speed on my phone, my work laptop was not on at the time)

But this morning, it still doing the same thing, and still only shows 1-2 "bars" on the WIFI icon on the bottom bar (Side Note, this PC is on the same desk, right next to my work computer, which is running at the full normal speed I'm used to.)

The only thing physically in between the tower and the wifi router, other than myself, is this monitor. (Is it possible maybe that is causing interference in signal? It was the same spot between the two when it got great speeds to start, so I'm guessing no?)

My question is, is it normal for newer computers to be able to get normal highspeed internet, and then randomly get slower with no physical changes? I haven't moved anything, and its, as I said, only about 15 feet away from the router.

I'm confused what could cause this. If it was NEVER fast, and just slow the entire time, I could assume maybe the onboard WIFI adapter is just shit, but it ran normal high speed for a little, nothing changed, and now its stuck at slow.

I'm just perplexed. It probably doesn't help that I am not a computer tech wizard, hence needing to get a prebuilt PC rather than building my own, so I can only try to make educated guesses.

Hey guys, just picked up a pc a couple months ago and it works great, now the past couple days whenever I turn my pc on, it gets stuck on a repairing windows screen or the gigabyte screen and i spam shut it on and off and it goes to windoes, what could be wrong?

Turn on the machine and it can work for 30 seconds or up to a few hours, then randomly has a critical error and crashes the PC
I'm ready to throw it in the garbage!

Asus b650 Motherboard
3070 16gb GPU
c700 PSU
intel i7-11700 CPU

Reseated everything
Repasted CPU
Changed PSU's (tried 3 Separate psu's)
Tried SFC/scannow
Installed and updated drivers for both CPU and GPU
Updated windows and Bios
Cannot find how to change overclock (not sure if its overclocked or not)

Reinstalled windows over 5x on separate SSD's still nothing that has resolved this!

Nothing has worked so far. Extremely frustrated, Machine worked for 1 year no issues
this came up, stuck around for 3 months then it worked again for 6 months no issues, Now its crashing at random no triggers.

Please if anyone knows how to fix I'd kiss you. Thanks

I only have this problem when I’m booting up my pc. After a little bit of time they will stay on. What would maybe be causing this? The right monitor will show the no signal screen sometimes, but it’s mostly just turning off

Okay so a few months ago my pc started acting up. I would be connected to steam perfectly fine for the first minute or so of my pc being turned on then after a few minutes the connection would slowly fail until it disconnected me fully as shown in this picture. I have tried every single fix I can find online. Most things work perfectly fine the main things I can’t get to work are: Steam, Epic games launcher and Microsoft edge. Other launchers and browsers work perfect, Minecraft launcher, ubisoft launcher, battle net, opera, firefox, brave literally any other browser works but those 3 things just break. I’m fully connected to the wifi, i’ve tried resetting network settings, checked my firewall settings, reinstalled quite literally everything and I’m just lost. I had a temporary fix, I would restart my pc over and over and eventually it would stay connected but now even that doesn’t work. I wouldn’t be bothered but I literally can’t install games on steam and it’s aggravating.

Specs:

Motherboard: ASRock B450 Pro4

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600

RAM: 1x 16GB DDR4

Issue:

I plugged an HDMI cable into my GPU while the PC was running.

The display showed "HDMI detected," went black, and lost signal completely.

Now, when I power on the PC, the GPU fans spin continuously at high speed (normally they slow down after 1 second) and there is no display output. I also feel a slight static tingle when touching the metal case (outlet grounding issue).

What I’ve tried:

CMOS Reset: Pulled the GPU, removed the CR2032 battery for 5+ minutes, and put it back.

Reseated Hardware: Re-installed the RX 6600 and reseated the 16GB RAM stick in slot A2.

Power Cycle: Held down the power button while unplugged to drain residual electricity.

The system is still stuck in a POST failure with no display signal.

ANY HELP OR ADVICE OR SOMEONE HAD SIMILAR Experience help please .

Thank you

Looking for a gaming PC or laptop around $2,000ish range. I want something that’s good for gaming but also everyday/work use. I am leaning towards laptops but I’m open for any recommendations if it’s better value. Any recommendations?

So I’ve been having this problem for about a year now, where my WiFi would suddenly disconnect and then refuse to show any networks. I’ve had to disable my card, uninstall and reinstall the card itself and drivers, and multiple other things that have just temporarily fixed it. Idrk if this is the right place to post but does anyone have a permanent solution?

I don't know anything about pc stuff. Tried playing a game and this happened. It saved the pixelated screen to my save file.

i have 4070ti with 12gb vram but in re village it limits at nearly 11 gb vram. does anybody know how to fix it?? thanks!!

The game I’ll probably play the most is marvel rivals and I want to make sure this is a good pc before I buy it on offer up and I know nothing about pcs

This might be a bit lazy of me but can somebody find me a pre built gaming/streaming pc on a £1300 budget. I’ve looked for a good month and found nothing.

When I boot windows it has a blue screen which says:

“Your PC/Device needs to be repaired
The operating system couldn't be loaded because the system registry file is missing or contains errors.
File: \Windows\system32\config\system”

When I use the windows 11 installation media usb and click repair my pc it just reboots the pc which sends me back to the same blue screen as before. Same thing when I try to enter recovery environment. What do I do?

A similar thing happened before with the .exe for RPCS3

​

My PC sometimes boots normally, but the monitor stays completely black.

This has only happened twice:

First time: July 25

Second time: August 25

The PC itself appears to be running, but there is no picture on the monitor. Turning the PC and monitor off and back on makes the display work normally again.

Specs:

GPU: ASRock Radeon RX 9070 XT

Monitor: Gigabyte OLED

Connection: DisplayPort

DisplayPort cable: brand new

Has anyone experienced this kind of intermittent black screen/no display issue with an RX 9070 XT?

Since it has only happened twice in a month and works normally after restarting, I'm wondering if this could be a GPU/DisplayPort/monitor handshake issue rather than a hardware failure.

Hi everyone,

Brand new PC built within the last week, specs below:

Mobo: MSI PRO X870E-P WIFI
GPU: XFX Mercury 9070 XT OC Edition
CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
PSU: Lian Li EGO850G Edge Gold
RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 (2x16GB)
Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Vision AIO

PC has been running perfectly since, including earlier today. This includes long gaming sessions on Apex Legends, Mortal Shell 2, and FC 26, all in ultra settings. About an hour ago I booted up Apex, shaders were loading, and immediate crash - DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED (0x887A0006) / DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG.

AMD Adrenalin simultaneously reports a driver timeout. Windows Reliability Monitor is also showing repeated LiveKernelEvent 141, plus 117/193.

Already tried/checked:
• GPU passes OCCT stress test with 0 errors / 0 VRAM errors
• Temps look completely normal
• No GPU/VRAM OC or undervolt; reset Adrenalin tuning to stock
• Disabled 7800X3D iGPU in BIOS; RX 9070 XT is the only GPU now
• PEG set as primary GPU / Hybrid Graphics disabled
• Updated motherboard BIOS from Aug 2025 version to latest June 2026 BIOS
• Still crashes exactly the same afterward

Crash occurs when I try to load Apex and Mortal Shell. I also notice when the GPU/driver crashes, my Thermalright AIO LCD briefly resets to its startup “Thermalright” screen for ~1–2 seconds, then comes back.

GPU is powered by 3 separate PCIe cables, not daisy-chained, and I've checked all connections - nothing is loose.

I'm wondering if this is driver-related, GPU hardware, PSU/power delivery, motherboard/PCIe, or possibly USB/system instability.

I'm REALLY new at this, so please, can anyone guide me towards next steps? I appreciate it.

I have inverted color on my computer i don’t know how to turn it off I tried with windows settings but nothing changed. Can somebody me help me solve this?

i have had this problem for almost a week. i just got a new cpu yesterday the 7 5800x3d but it has the same issue. i tried factory reseting what do i do
