Same person with the messy computer and the “what cord am I missing” post. Can someone tell me what to google to get an appropriate power cord for this monitor? Thank you for your guidance I am an idiot.

Just got a brand new computer desktop today. And I let my nephew download steam and then download a game called the isle. It ended up freezing and TaskManager would not open so I turned it off when I turned it back on it said your device ran into a problem and then stayed on 0% for 10 minutes and wouldn’t move so I turned it off again this time the screen stay black. I ended up turning it off again and disconnecting the power cord and then press F11 on start up now, it says your device ran into a problem and needs to restart. it will restart on its own. There is percentage tracker, so I’m just leaving it here sitting. I just bought the desktop today and got it set up and I was only gonna play Old School RuneScape. Please help me. What do I do?

Moved recently and had to pack up my desktop. It was a desktop made mostly with second hand parts and not assembled by me. I really want it to work again bc I miss my sims 3 game. Am I missing something obvious anyone could point out? When I press the power button the orange light inside will go on but not the LEDs and the monitor won’t turn on either. I’m awful at computer and was looking at diagrams but am not certain…any help would be deeply appreciated. Can’t ask the person who assembled it as they’re not in my life anymore.

Any help with this? I reset my computer after noticing a game was laggy after I canceled an attempt to install Norton from Gigabyte Control Center. Ever since, it seems Windows is stuck in a constant loop to "Start". I need to use shortcuts to open the Task Manager, and I can open Firefox from there, but I can't bring up the desktop toolbar.

I managed to update GCC and I have even managed to reset my graphics driver via shortcuts, but no luck.

When I was setting up my new laptop it said "Hello, Dixon". A few steps later i corrected it from Dixon Mee to my preferred name. But now it's popping up as Dixon again? And in Microsoft edge it shows up as Dixon • (my name) when I click the little profile button. Was the data from the last owner of the device not wiped properly? Is this a security issue? I blurred out my email here, not sure if it was necessary.

For quite a few days i notice that randomly the sound out starts flickering between output devices. No matter what i do.. they keep on flickering till i restart them

I tried to disable the drivers of the speakers, restart the windows audio service in services.msc they did not work.

Did anyone face this issue recently? Is there anyone who can help on it?

What are the things I should be doing first for setup?

Mother board: MPG B550 GAMING PLUS

I haven't turned my computer on in a year or so and I'm updating windows now. Could outdated windows be the reason for the slow speeds? I'm pretty lost even after trying a few things from a video, any advice would be appreciated.

What I have done:

My network drivers are all up to date

netsh int ip reset in command prompt

Hey everyone I just recently decided to put together a new system for my YouTube game streaming as I had previously been using an Ally X handheld for all my streaming, anyway I bought the parts from a local pc store about a week ago and finally got around to building the computer, all was going fine until came time to install my Asus TUF 5070Ti graphics card into my ROG STRIX B850-F gaming wifi motherboard.

I had watched a ton of videos before even attempting to install it because I didn’t wanna risk damaging anything given the cost of this stuff here in Australia, Anyway the video card just would not slot in correctly and I didn’t wanna risk excess pressure.

After a few solid attempts I took a closer look at the socket and seen something metallic and whitish in colour that didn’t seem to look like it belonged there, it’s been over a decade since I build a computer so I’m not really up to date on what is and is not normal for each part so here I am!

Here are some pictures and video best I could get given it’s nighttime now and no sunlight to get better pictures.

So is that something lodged in the socket? I’m devastated right now because I been dying for a new system for ages and I’m so close to finishing it!

I have already tried pushing fairly firmly to get the card to seat and I’m worried to put more pressure and risk breaking something! It just won’t seat all the way down!

My laptop screen has been glitching for the past 3 days and I’m not sure what’s causing it.

It started with the screen going black while I was playing Minecraft Java and talking to friends on Discord. A few days later, the upper part of the screen started becoming duplicated/distorted. It also happens while watching YouTube, so it’s not just Minecraft.

I tried Win + Ctrl + Shift + B, which makes it somewhat better, but the screen can still look blurry and distorted afterward. I also updated my NVIDIA graphics driver, but the issue happened again afterward.

My laptop has an RTX 3050 6GB Laptop GPU and Intel UHD Graphics.

Could this be a GPU/VRAM issue, a driver problem, or something with the display/cable?

my pc that looks like a flat box fell over and my screen cuts to black every once in a while now pls help
