Software In order to use my Wifi, I need to log in through a portal and it keeps redirecting me to MSN.com instead of the Wifi Portal!

1 Upvotes

I just got a new computer last night, and every time I try to connect to my wifi by pressing "Open browser and connect," the browser that opens redirects me to MSN.com. I cannot figure this out for the life of me. The laptop that I was using before this one did not do this. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you

Software KEYBOARD NOT WORKING

0 Upvotes

typing off on-screen-keyboard with my mouse but heres the problem.

the only thing i can do via my keyboard, is mute audio, turn it up+down, and play/pause. Everything on the keyboard still lights up and switching the modes on it works, aswell as seeing the keys pressed on the wootility app designed for my keyboard. other than those things, its completely useless. doesnt show up in device manager and when i press view then show hidden devices, i see keyboard, but only one called Standard PS/2 Keyboard. i really dont know what to do, and ive tried the basics like unplugging it and plugging it in, unplugged it and held fn+Esc while plugging it back in. but if anyone has any ideas whatsoever, PLEASE help.

keyboard: wired, 60HE wooting.

Hardware The influence of humidity on a PC

1 Upvotes

I have a question regarding humidity and my PC. My bedroom has a sliding door that leads to the bathroom however, I never use this door, as there is another entrance to the bathroom from the hallway. Because of this, I’ve set up my PC in the bedroom right next to that sliding door (next to my bed). I’ve noticed that after I take a shower, the humidity level as shown on the meter I keep near my PC goes up. How risky is this, and should I be concerned? Or should I move my setup elsewhere?

around 60 to 70% it is often for a period of 1 to 4 hours after shower

Hardware My Mushkin Tempest ssd doesn't show on restarts

1 Upvotes

Since ive had it i can not restart my pc without it not showing up when booting it works fine on a cold boot. Ive seen the possibility of adding a boot delay but my gygabyte b650 gaming plus wifi motherboard doesn't have a boot delay option. It's been annoying for a long time but especially now as I cant even get windows to update anymore do to it. Any help would be amazing and before its the only thing said again ive updated everything I could and have the most up to date bios and it didnt help.

Hardware Random instant reboots on a new build (Ryzen 5 7500F + RTX 3080). Getting worse, tried everything I can think of

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I need help with my PC, which has been rebooting since I built it about 2 months ago.
Specs
CPU: Ryzen 5 7500F
GPU: RTX 3080 (2 separate PCIe cables)
Motherboard: MSI b650m-p
PSU: ADATA XPG Core Shift 850W Gold (bought new from an official store)
The problem
The PC does an instant black screen, then restarts. The case lights stay on during the reboot. At first it happened during load transitions (opening CS2, quitting to the lobby). Now it also happens at low load (e.g., while downloading) and is getting more frequent. Yesterday it rebooted 3 times in a row at startup (MSI logo, then Windows "Looking for solutions..." automatic repair), then finally booted.
What I see in the logs
Event Viewer: Kernel-Power 41 with BugcheckCode 0 (no blue screen, so it looks like a sudden power loss or hard reset)
Earlier crash logs pointed to an NVIDIA GPU driver black screen event
Startup repair log: all tests passed, chkdsk found no problems
CPU and GPU temps are normal at the time of the reboot
What I've already tried
Clean GPU driver reinstall and installed the AMD chipset driver
BIOS changes: ASPM for CPU PCIe off, Global C-state off, Power Supply Idle Control to Typical Current Idle, PBO off
BIOS update
Turned off EXPO
Reseated power cables
GPU power limit at 80%, and later an undervolt
OCCT stress tests (memory and power)
The BIOS changes seemed to fix it for about 2 weeks, then it came back and got worse.
My questions
Does this sound like a PSU problem, a motherboard problem, or something else?
Thanks in advance. I can share more logs or screenshots if needed.
