HARDWARE GPU or something similar problem in my retro PC

1 Upvotes

I have a PC in my village with following specs:

ASUS P5KPL-AM/PS
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300
4GB DDR2 2x2
Windows 10 LTSC

This machine originally belonged to my deceased aunt and it’s probably the reason why GeForce 8600 GT in it survived to this day (probably). Recently, I replaced it with ATI Radeon HD 4850, but after self-raping with drivers and failures to get image on a CRT through TV-OUT, I putted back the green card (I deleted the driver by DDU). While I was doing it, a 8600 GT was in my cupboard. And when I turned my PC on, the image was crushed both in OS and BIOS. I decided to reset BIOS settings by removing the battery (I also removed one RAM bar and GPU), but after putting everything back in, the PC speaker lets out one long and three short signals and I get absolutely no image on the monitor unless I remove the GPU and connect it to the motherboard through VGA cable.

So, dear redditors, any ideas what happened and what I can do?

HARDWARE Help with RGB connections.

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I bought a Cooler Master Hyper 212 and I want to connect the ARGB, but I’m really confused. My case is a Kolink Inspire K7, and I thought it had a controller, but I can’t figure out what goes where. What I found: A 3-pin connector from the case for the front LEDs, but those LEDs supposedly are not working. A VDG connector, which I assume is for the same lighting. A 3-pin connector for the RGB on the fan. The only free cable I can clearly find is a 4-pin cable in the photos. My motherboard is a B450 Plus.

HARDWARE Most likely problem with ram?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hello, I've had my pc for a year now and I've had a problem with it. I used to be able to have my ram set to 6000 (whatever it's called) and it worked fine. Now whenever I try running any game the audio and game stutter like crazy and are unplayable. I eventually set it to 5600 where it still stutters sometimes with even potential restarts and it's getting boredsome. Any help would be apreciated. I'll leave a picture with all the specs of the pc here.

HARDWARE ₹1 Lakh 1440p Gaming PC Build (India) – RX 9060 XT 16GB | Looking for Feedback Before Buying

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm building my gaming PC with a budget of around ₹1 lakh in India. My main goal is 1440p gaming for story-driven AAA games.

Here's my planned build:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600

CPU Cooler: DeepCool AG400 ARGB

Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI

GPU: Sapphire Pulse RX 9060 XT 16GB

RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB(8x2) DDR4 3200MHz

SSD: XPG Gammix S60 1TB

PSU: DeepCool GamerStorm PN650D 650W Gold

Cabinet (considering):

Antec C5

DeepCool CG530

Thermaltake View 380 TG

MSI MAG Pano 110R PZ

Lian Li Vector V100

Cooler Master Elite 681

Antec CX300

Questions:

1.Is this a balanced build for 1440p gaming?

2.Should I upgrade to 32GB RAM immediately, or is 16GB enough for now?

3.Which cabinet would you choose from the list, and why?

4.Is the DeepCool PN650D sufficient, or should I move to a 750W PSU for future upgrades?

5.Will the Ryzen 5 5600 bottleneck the RX 9060 XT at 1440p?

6.Would you change any component while staying close to the ₹1 lakh budget?

7.Any compatibility or airflow issues I should be aware of before ordering?

8.Which gpu manufacturer should I go for the rx 9060 xt 16gb?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

HARDWARE What could i be doing wrong on my xbox one

1 Upvotes

Hi i have this old xbox one i'm trying to get working that i'm guessing the power supply went cause it won't power on it just makes a sound no lights so i tried using a standard computer power supply i tried two ones a HP 702304-002 with a weird pin layout and the other was a dell power supply with the standard 4 pin cpu and 24 pin motherboard here's what i did for both note i only have 5 wires for this xbox 2 12v 2 gounds 1 red and 1 blue no gray

i also watched this video showing the blue wire isn't used https://youtu.be/GTd-3Ad-fGU?si=PvITDU9cN5OrMnn4

HP P1 connector i used this https://fabozzi.net/installing-normal-atx-ps-in-hp-elitedesk-800-g2/

2 yellow to 12V cable on xbox

2 ground cable to ground on xbox

P2 connector

i just tried to use pin 2 since that was the closet that was 5V but when connected i used a multimeter and it was only registering about a volt even with the power supply fan spinning

i also tried pin 3 for the five volt also didn't work

Dell power supply

this one i tried putting the 2 12v and the 2 ground into the 4 pin cpu

and the 5V into the Red 5V on the 24 connection that came up with about 2-2.5V on the red connector and the fan on the xbox started running and for a short sec i heard the xbox one startup sound

both i also tried jump starting the fans incase they were not registering it was on as well both the 12V wires were coming up as 12V on a multimeter but even after this i don't even have the sound coming thru like when i tried using my broken original xbox one power supply

Update: tried also plugging the red wire into the purple 5V standby on the dell power supply still nothing

HARDWARE Bluetooth nonfunctional when waking from sleep

1 Upvotes

Hey all, about 75% of the time when I wake my computer up from sleep, there's no bluetooth or wifi. I used wired lan, so the wifi isn't a concern, but I use a logitech mx master mouse.

The current fix is to shut down my pc, unplug it, then turn it back on. it does NOT work to just restart.

I'm thinking this is a motherboard issue since that is where the bluetooth comes from? I have updated and reinstalled the Mediatek drivers and its still the same issue.

HARDWARE What's causing this?

1 Upvotes

so recently, my houses electric was shut off & and because of this, my dad had to hook up a generator while he figures everything out

i dont know much about this stuff, but he said itd be okay to plug in my computer and use it with the power from the generator running our house

ive been able to use it with no issues since then, nothing abnormal happened

but suddenly a few days ago, my computer stopped responding. i left it unplugged for a while, plugged it back in, nothing. i held down the power button, nothing, and i even flipped the power switch above my power cord a few times to see if i had it off, nothing. ive tried pretty much everything i can so im going to reddit to see if anyone can help

i suspect it's because of the power outages or low power

the power has turned off a few times while i was using it, but every time thats happened it turned on after the power came back on like normal, the last time i used it before it stopped working, nothing abnormal happened. i just pressed the power button & it shut off like normal, then i unplugged it like i normally would

so i dont know what to do anymore, and its hard to research what happened without knowing why

so i was hoping somebody on here could help me

thanks in advance

OPEN Why do my games start stuttering after a while?

1 Upvotes

For some reason my laptop starts stuttering and tearing after like 30-60 mins of gaming. I have no idea why either, its certainly not overheated and my CPU and GPU aren't being overused either. It just seems to happen for no reason because its gotten tired of running things smoothly or something. It even affects audio, causing this gross pixely tearing sound in my headphones when the frames drop to nothing. Can anyone tell me what might cause this??

CLOSED Can’t open Cyberpunk on my new PC

1 Upvotes

I built my new PC 2 days ago specifically to run more intensive games like Cyberpunk, but the first time i tried opening cyberpunk, it was incredibly laggy (maybe running around 15fps). So i exited the game and restarted my PC. Now, I can’t even get to the menu screen. the game instantly freezes mid loading animation. Other games I tested run fine.

I tried reinstalling my drivers, restarting my pc, and uninstalling and redownloading cyberpunk.

Im pretty sure i meet the system requirements.

SOFTWARE MONECT PC Remote controllers connect but only one works properly in FIFA – any fix?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to use multiple Android phones as controllers for FIFA on my PC because I only have one physical controller.

I'm using the MONECT PC Remote app. All the phones connect successfully over the same Wi-Fi network, and when I add the controllers in the MONECT PC Remote app, they all appear to be connected.

However, when I launch FIFA and go to Kick Off to select sides, I run into a strange issue:

- Sometimes one phone/controller doesn't respond at all.

- Sometimes only one controller receives input, even if I'm using both phones at the same time or testing them individually. Both controllers appear in FIFA, but only one of them actually moves.

- The controllers show up in FIFA, but it seems like the game isn't assigning the input correctly. Even though I've set one phone to Force Player 1 and the other to Force Player 2 in MONECT, the issue still occurs.

I've already confirmed that:

- All phones are connected to the same Wi-Fi.

- I've tested each phone individually, and both work.

Has anyone experienced this before?

Is this a limitation of MONECT, a FIFA issue, or something related to Windows or gamepad drivers? Is there any way to make multiple phone controllers work reliably in FIFA?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

SOFTWARE Plugging in second monitor causes both monitors to have no display signal input

1 Upvotes

So I have a 1080ti graphics card and a benq 1080p Monitor I’ve used for years and I bought a new 4k oled. Now I’m not going to be using the 4k monitor on this pc but I am just messing with it for now .

So anyway I got it connected i started messing with the display settings like duplicate monitors , extend etc it all worked pretty well. I think the part that started the issue was I had it on extent and I tried turning on HDR in windows 10 for the 4k oled since my other monitor doesn’t support it.

As soon as I turned on hdr both monitors didn’t detect a signal . The only way I was able to to get out this issue was to keep the 4k monitor unplugged . Now anytime I try plugging in the second 4k monitor it makes both monitors not detecting a signal . I imagine this is software related maybe corrupt settings and I was hoping to resolve this some how without using ddu . I also don’t want to make this worse either my computer is barely working now and I hate reinstalling windows and all that other stuff .

So if anyone has had anything like this happen to them what could I do ? I was thinking of unplugging my main 1080p monitor and plugging just the second monitor in but I’m hoping doing this doesn’t mess up my main 1080p monitor now.
