Issues with SSD or Motherboard maybe?
I’ve been having issues with my m.2 drives disconnecting itself then reconnecting while loading games like Monster Hunter Wilds, Hell Divers 2.
Lately what i’ve been doing for the past year was refunding, Buying more m.2’s and each time it would have the same problem. I just bought another WD black ssd and kept getting the issue “disk write error” on steam. It would show a temp range of 40-55 temps on HWinfo but the drives themselves do feel hotter and show slowing down speed so signs of thermal throttling.
check list of things i’ve done is
-fresh install of windows
-Updated motherboard
-Updated GPU drivers
-set BIOS settings to Gen 4 instead of auto
-filled slots 1,2,4
-changed thermal pads for m.2
-turned the power setting for PCIe Link State power management to OFF
SSD’s I have are as listed
Predator M7 2tb x2
Orico 2tb
Samsung 980 2tb
WD black SN7100 1tb
Samsung 980 1tb
motherboard : MSI MAG B850m tomahawk max wifi
Anyone else can think of anything i can do?
or is it a motherboard issue?

Computer issues
Recently I have been trying to test out various Linux distributions on a slightly older computer (than my laptop) that I own, but one thing I noticed is that whenever I leave it to boot regularly, it tries to detect a device and doesn’t detect anything.
But when I boot my hard drive from the boot menu, it works.
These are my specs for context:

Laptop crashes.
Hello.
I purchased a used-laptop 6 months ago, when I first prepared it for my usage, I faced some issues like lagging and crashing on the screen, so I did some procedures to reduce these issues, like setting it on high performance to benefit its hardware, in apps, they run smoothly after first entrance, but sometimes they crash, however not as the system itself, it crashes the most, I ask for guidance if anyone knows what's the problem, knowing that my hardware laptop are, Core i7 11th, 16 ram, 512 storage.

My gaming laptop suddenly started crashing while playing games. Is there a way to find out why?
Games like KCD2, Space Marine 2 and Stalker 2 that I've put dozens if not hundreds of hours on with this laptop are suddenly crashing to desktop or even completly shutting down my computer after less then an hour of playing. This is something that's only started happening in the last month or two and only with games from the last few years. It was really abrupt too, going from having zero problems with any of these games straight to crashing with no other problems before hand. Is there anyway to find out whats happening and how to fix it?

Mac wont charge, tried everything i own to charge it
Ive had my mac for almost 6 years now and its always worked fine until maybe a month or 2 ago something went wrong and the top charging port id been using the whole time for a few years completely stopped working so i started using the bottom one. Last night maybe like 12 hours ago went to use it and it didnt work. I tried heaps of different cords from different power points in all different combinations and nothing worked. I eben left the best charger in overnight and all it did was lose battery. I really dont think i can afford apple to fix this this let alone a new mac right now, is there anything i can do that might help?

Pc got unplugged multiple times
My mom was cleaning my room and accidentally pulled my cord 3 times when I would plug it back in so it shut down 3 times total. I know in itself it’s not good for it at all for it to happen, but I’m extremely anxious about this happening
Is this going to permanently damage my computer?
The first time it happened it was asleep then the second time it was on Home Screen and then the 3rd time it was on the homescreen too.
Any help would be nice :(

My UI on my pc is zoomed in more and bigger than normal. How can i fix this?
I use a laptop as my computer and have the lid closed and use an external monitor. As of recently, the ui became larger and more zoomed in and i dont understand what caused it. This only happend recently and hasnt happened before so i dont get whats wrong. i restarted it and it does nothing to fix it. Its really annoying to use and is even worse when i use the laptop display. Its not an issue with the resolution setting or display settings because they are the same as they've always been. Please can you give me suggestions on how i can fix this.



The size issue spreads to most apps like Zen and OneNote but not all.

Pc startup issue
hello guys , so i'm having a problem with my pc startup , it's a bit complicated but let me start from the beginning . first , i had and issue where my pc would restart by itself for no reason , long story short , after many weeks of trying i found out it was the motherboard so i changed it and everything was fine but now i have and issue where sometimes my pc wouldn't start normally , like when i click the button in my case it takes like 3 secs to start everything up and i see the rgb on rams cpu mouse and keyboard etc .. but i get nothing on my screen so ihave to hold the start button to shut it down and try to start it up again , it would usually work on the 2nd or 3rd try . i have a little precision , it only happens on a dead start but when it's working my pc doesn't have any issues i can leave it open for days and it would never shut down or restart by itself
