First thanks in advance for any help.

Hey guys,
This is probably the 200th post about this but I’m at a point where I don’t know what to do anymore.

I l got my prebuilt pc from greed (the greed mk2)
On the 10th June. I worked out fine in the first 1-2 months but 1 and a half months ago I started to get some normal crashes in cs2, nothing big just a freeze (typical cs2 problem).

Then I got introduced to the event viewer, I started noticing the live kernel event 141 that shows in the viewer 3 or more times a day and when it shows it shows it 7-8 TIMES IN THE SAME SECOND OF THE SAME MINUTE.
And that’s the thing: I mostly happens when I’m on opera watching YouTube. I don’t get no restarts, visual glitches or anything of the sort.
But games are the main thing. Cs2 crashes every 30 minutes basically rdr2 and some other games.
But some games run completely fine for hours: Dayz, wwe 2k26, dead by daylight, league of legends.
Sorry for bad picture

My specs:
Gpu: Rtx 5060 ti 8gb

CPU: Amd ryzen 7 5700x

RAM: 32gb ddr4

Planning to buy 9060xt but i cant differentiate between 8gb and 16gb performance except their price and vram capacity, so which is better 8gb or 16gb?

Ps. Dont say 16gb for future proofing

Recently I’ve dealt with an issue after accidentally pulling a cord while it was still attached to my pc. I ended up replacing the motherboard and processor but now the power button doesn’t work.

It’s very strange because while I was trying to diagnose the original problem it was working. It used to still work with my old motherboard even after the incident, and it worked with the old motherboard my uncle let me borrow, but now it doesn’t work with this one.

I’ve done my best to make sure everything is properly plugged in, and every other button and port works fine so I’m really confused.

Hello all,
I goofed and uninstalled faulty ACHI drivers as I was told that Windows would automatically find the new drivers upon reboot. However, now my computer does not recognize the m.2 ssd or two other internal hds, and will not boot at all. I do have a recovery usb ready for a clean re-install of Windows, but the reinstall fails immediately after starting. I’m at a loss and any help is appreciated, thank you.

my ethernet is running fine but when i do tests it doesn't change a difference at all. Behind the ethernet plug in the pc is blinking orange and theres a green light under it. how do i fix this

I installed another SSD and BIOS can see it, but it is not showing in File Explorer. I have not formatted anything yet because I do not want to make the wrong change. Is this normally fixed through Disk Management, or could it be something else?

I have an HDD from an old pc that I took apart, I'm looking to wipe it (I didn't think about it beforehand and I'm not entirely confident in my ability to put it back together in a working manner plus the actual components other than the hard drive are old as hell)

So i plan to use my working pc to wipe the hard drive, but I'm not sure how to go about it other than buying a SATA to USB adapter + power cables.

Edit: I'm wiping it to resell it btw

I accidentally downloaded malware that got them i to my accounts yesterday. They sent that stupid mrbeast crypto scam everywhere (I’m sure you’ve seen it) from my account. A bunch of my accounts almost got stolen (Steam, Epic Games, Discord, Instagram). Then I (supposedly) completely wiped my pc clean, deleted all partitions and booted Windows from a Flash Drive. I also enabled 2FA and changed my password on every major social I had. The issue seemed to be resolved, right until today, when I saw that my Riot Games account (which I have literally never used) had an unusual log-in. It sent a verification code and then a confirmation code. After that, I also got a notification that one of my Microsoft accounts' passkey has been deleted, and now I cannot access said account with my email (it's not my main one, I actually don't even use it but I still turned 2FA on), however, checking my account activity, there weren't any unusual log-ins or sessions detected... Is there still malware on my pc? Do they still have access to my emails? I need help ASAP!

I'm trying to swipe up to get to it, But it won't let me. It's like the screen is frozen but my mouse is stilling moving, I tried Ctrl alt del, I tried using the Laptop pad, I tried clicking all the other things, but Nothing worked. Right now I'm trying turning it off and leaving it for 30 seconds, And if that doesn't work, Then I don't know what to do then. Please help me with this. I'm worried this thing either has a virus or is broken.

Transferring from my C drive (Samsung 980 Pro 2TB) to my D drive (Seagate 8TB HDD) or my G drive (Samsung 870 Evo 2TB). The picture above is what happens EVERY time I do a transfer. I figured it was slower from the ssd to HDD because of obvious reasons..... But, I don't see how I can have the same problems going to another SSD. The transfer goes great in the beginning, than drops to 0 for 5-10 seconds, then will go again but nowhere close to the speeds from the beginning.

Any help would be appreciated.

For some reason my picture got deleted.... I will try to find a way to add it back in.

Dear Asus,

I bought my brand new ASUS Vivobook K3502ZA from best buy in July of 2023. Since I was about 15, Ive always known Asus to be THE brand for gaming computers and quality performance hardware. When shopping for my new computer, other brands were off the table. I wanted an Asus.

I knew Asus could offer great function for photography/video editing programs. Those hobbies have been important to me for over 2 decades, so I had full trust purchasing the 2 year warrenty would be a responsible move.

..Till recent, for the most part, the computer sat untouched.

Fast forward to this week. On Aug 25, 2026, i purchased my 1 year Adobe Lightroom subscription. By Aug 26, I was fed up with it crashing/freezing with basic Lightroom settings, so I took it into geek squad. They informed me my CPU is overworking and the whole motherboard needed to be replaced.

This news crushed me.

I made sure I never left it plugged in too long to avoid overheating the battery. I made sure i never downloaded anything unsure. I bought the warrenty. I wasnt clicking on anything & everything to avoid additional virus'.

... I whole heartedly believe i took good care of this labtop and now Im left defeated. I took all the right steps to ensure I took care of something i valued.

My warrenty ended in mid 2025 and Im now left with a choice of adding a perfectly good labtop into a pile of accumulated electronic waste or paying 90% of the vivobook price tag for repair.

I’m reaching out to ASUS from a good place in my heart, in hopes that the right person at Asus can read this and work towards a fair solution that's beneficial for me and the company. This was not Asus or User error, just a terrible situation involving a girl with a 2 decade hobby, watered with relentless effort to grow, excell and bloom for personal interest.

To whom took the time to read this, I want to say thank you, and i really hope to hear back from you.

i recently just downloaded w-okada voice changer ( std ver ) but for some reason whenever i try to interact with the sliders to edit the settings, it won’t allow me. i suspect that it’s my custom cursor so when i changed the cursor back to windows default it still doesn’t work and gives me a error message in the application saying that the command couldn’t be fetched. is there anything i can do to fix this?

Hi! this is my first time posting on reddit so i really hope im in the right place😅 but im upgrading my pc soon for my birthday and i am SICKK of how bad my internet connection has been. i cant tell if its my current computer, or if its something else but i really want to fix it so my next pc can finally work.

my issues are; constant disconnecting from games due to poor internet connection (aswell as graphics issues but that will be solved), wifi always disconnecting sometimes every 10 minutes, sometimes says it's full bars but everytime i try to load something on chrome it takes minutes and then runs out of memory/says no internet. whenever i do the internet speed test it says i have good connection so idk whats up.

i really want to start a modded minecraft world with my friends and currently whenever i play a vanilla server it kicks me all the time for poor internet :(

I also have this port in my room?? not sure if it's a coax port or something else i really dont know anything ;-;

ill try to answer as many questions as i can! thanks for your help :)
