pc build

Come tax return time I am looking at upgrading my graphics. 2013 was processor and mobo. Coming up is graphics. I am running an AMD Radeon 5670 crossfire. Both are fully stock 5670's with 1GB GDDR5 at 1000mhz and clock at 775mhz. I want to play the Fallout 3 and New Vegas games at full...

I have been fighting for sometime getting a new build system to run stable. I seem to get BSOD a lot, and it seems to happen most often when I copy large files. I have never attempted to overclock. I have not installed very much other than MS Office and FSX, but those run fine. OS Name...

It didn't occur to me while digging out my old MSI motherboard for use in my HTPC, but I just checked the download page at MSI for it, and not one of the drivers available are listed as being compatible with Windows 7. In fact, only a couple are listed as being for X64. I know that Windows 7...

I have the problem where my PC is stalling repeatedly at random. I was running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit before, but I formatted and reinstalled Windows today. I have run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware full scans on both my C: Drive and my D: drives after I reinstalled Windows, where I backed up...

So I built this computer fairly recently. Before I had the graphics card ready to go, it all seemed fine, no crashes. Later when I had everything put in, I reinstalled Windows 8 and started to use it like normal. That's when these crashes started happening. Now I also use a DP10U tablet by...

Good morning. I can't seem to find a definitive answer to my problem. I selected my motherboard because it was SLI-capable. Unfortunately, when I upgraded from the gtx 580 to the gtx 680 4gb FTW card, I found that it was far thicker than the 580, and now almost completely covers the next slot...

Preface: I'm building my own computer from scratch after having headaches with my current one (a Dell) for about 4 years. Seeing since it's come from Dell, they've saved me the pain of installing Windows 7 myself, and have also handily provided me with a sticker that displays Proof of License...

I have an issue with getting a completely black screen. I never see a desktop. I never even see the login screen. If I press the sleep button on the case, then start it back up, I see a mouse pointer too. But on first boot, there is no mouse pointer. Booting in safe mode has the exact same...

Hold onto your butts. Yesterday my old computer's hard disk died. Finally fed up with dell, figured I'd worked with computers long enough to just build my own. Went to Fry's, got these for a new computer- 8gb DDR3 1600 DUAL ANTEC EA 650 Green 650w ATX PSU ASUS PCE-N15 PCI-E wireless...

I just put together a brand new PC build with all new components. In the middle of a custom install of Windows 7 on the HDD (the system only has one 1TB 7200rpm toshiba HDD), the installation screen went blank and the computer restarted. After restarting, the monitor displayed bootdisk mgr...

I have finished putting together a computer today and all I needed to do was install windows 7, however it keeps freezing at the "starting windows" screen before the microsoft logo appears. I have literally tried everything to fix it but nothing works so I've come here in hope of some help.

Hello. I am new here. Hope this is the right forum to post this. Anyway, I just built a pc with the Biostar MB Hi-Fi H61S3 and windows 7 home premium. Everything seemed to go great, until i started intermittently getting an error stating that there is an unknown usb device. i went to system...

I'v been building & upgrading computers for 23 years now I just built my latest P.C. Anyway when I bought this motherboard (Asus P9X79 Pro) I thought that UEFI meant just some kind of different interface for the bios, after researching I see its a whole new ballgame. I installed win7 64bit on...

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...

Hi Everyone, I know you probably get a billion of these types of topics on here, but I would like to build a new system and I thought I'd come to the Win7 experts this time :) I'll start with the current system I have, which I built about seven years ago... OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit...
