Hey guys! I was wondering if you could help me out with this glitch my tree makes in explorer.
Usually I'm able to search for a solution but I need names on the different assets in Explorer to do that. And since I dunno what the "tree" is really called I can't do a proper search.
Anyways, I...

I'll start with the current system I have, which I built about seven years ago...

Just curious what the stuff in the parenthesis means? i believe ox7f is hardware/driver issue, but i'm not a doctor. i don't know.

I had an all-in-one liquid cpu cooler leak coolant all over my PC last week, luckily it shut down from overheating when there was no coolant left in the loop. I disassembled my PC, cleaned everything with alcohol and let it dry. Then i bought an air cooler and installed it. After installing the...
So I've recently built myself a pc, and since have been having issues with a BSOD while in game in MW3 from anywhere between 10 minutes and a couple of hours of game play, and once in MW2 after a little bit (forgot the time period). I originally had my OS on my 2tb HDD, and since have put in...
Hello,
I recently posted in the BSOD section of this forum and after several testing, the people over there suggested me to get a new and better CPU Cooler.

I'm sorry this has been posted numerous times before, but I've read through everything, but haven't yet found a fix. The problem is I get the "Unidentified network" message when I try to connect to the internet via LAN. I just built a new PC, and started getting this error. I've never used LAN...

Well... I am thinking of buying a graphics card for a new build. I am thinking along the lines of a HD 7770. I know this card is a solid overclocker and packs lots of new technologys such as ZeroCore. But it sometimes gets beaten by the HD 6850. I am still leaning towards the 7770 because of the...

Its a new PC. It seems to be a graphics card issue. It restarts on it own while i'm playing games. I've done a lot of different things to try to fix it. Bought new memory and a processor but still crashes. I've install old versions of the Nvidia drivers but won't help. I open it to check that...
Built a PC this past summer and have been plagued with BSODs since the start. I was able to fix most of them but not this one. The BAD_POOL_HEADER that has popped up recently.
I am able to reproduce it whenever I play Crisis, BF3, or GW2 after about 10 minutes of play.
I was extremely careful...
FYI Tip:
When buying a (new) Motherboard, make sure/check that its BIOS is up to date, even though it may be fresh off the shelf. Just cus a M/B is brand new out of the box doesn't mean its BIOS does not need to be flashed. It's a good practice to check before installing an OS.
Cheers,
