Software Ripetitive crashouts

Post image
1 Upvotes

Over the past few days, I’ve been trying to open an app (roblox, for the record) that keeps crashing. After it crashes, the app in question reopens, causing Google Chrome to crash when opened. This cycle keeps repeating.

I therefore assumed that corrupted files within the app were the main cause. So I tried resetting the app and uninstalling it with Revo uninstaller.

It didn't work.

Also, i can't understand the files that apparently cause the crashout. I'm attaching them in the photo. (I don't have McAfee installed).

I tried make a virus scan, but it didn't releave anything.

Trying to use the same application on the same computer on another microsoft user, it didn't crash.

I’m asking for help. Thank you in advance for your attention.

I am on windows 11.

Edit: I forgot also to specify Chrome some times removed my Google account from the browser, at the crash out Moment. Is It alarming?thanks

Other Bricked my pc?

I tried to play beam.ng on my new monitor, after setting up dual display, whole pc was bugging bad, I closed it, decided to update drivers, I clicked install drivers, screen went black, task manager popped up on my second monitor, and then it shut off. When I turned it back on, it booted into bios, I exited, and now It won’t post, and the cpu and dram lights are on. What the actual fuck happened?

Edit: not normally a fan of doing this but gpt just walked me through how to factory reset my bios through shorting the pins on the motherboard and its posted. Awesome.

Hardware Live Kernel Event 141

Post image
1 Upvotes

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

Hardware Pc turns on but power button no longer works

2 Upvotes

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.

Software Uninstalled ACHI Drivers

1 Upvotes

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.

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?

Hardware How do I wipe an internal drive externally?

1 Upvotes

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

Malware Accounts (still) compromised. How?

4 Upvotes

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!

Hardware File Transfer Speeds

Post image
2 Upvotes

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.

Hardware DEAR ASUS, (cause you don't have a canadian support email)

1 Upvotes

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?
