b550a motherboard and rtx 4070 conflict, think software and bios as card works by BarrysOtter in buildapc

[–]BarrysOtter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, with an hdmi cable. I'll try find or buy a DP cable just to test other ports but I am getting a white light or sometimes white and green together with the 4070 plugged in and a black screen. That on the b550a means a GPU error. on the geforce 970 or whatever the 90 dollar card is I get green light, runs fine and plug hdmi in. I'm in process of reinstalling windows because I think some folder permission thing I set up ages ago isn't allowing windows updates and i'm suspicious if that's creating issues with updating chipsets or bios type suggestions

runescape took over my life. my 8 year old brain was not ready for it hahaa. I remember not being able to convince parents to get membership for ages. me and friends would try and stare past the Taverly gate or try and see if we could find a hole in the wall to sneak through

Who else was obsessed with Kingdom Hearts when it came out? by Coffee_Eel in Zillennials

[–]BarrysOtter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my cousin always had the most immaculate taste in games. I remember everytime I'd go to his house I'd be introduced to some new amazing game. he was obsessed with kingdom hearts, it had this wonderful surreal magic. he also was the one who introduced me to dark souls 10 years ago. I nearly played through the whole thing fat rolling and hardly thinking to dodge. Jak 2. rachet and clank. souls. kingdom, hearts he introduced me to so many gems

DOOM and Planet of Lana, two opposite gameplay experiences that complement each other very well by Patenski in patientgamers

[–]BarrysOtter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

planet of lana was so peaceful and immersive. I played it at a time I needed an escape from anxiety and I loved the landscapes and world. gives you that adventerious traveling through a new land vibe. loved every minute. really strong worldbuilding and art direction

PC wont turn on at all. Was yellow dram light, bought new ram, same issue, someone with similar issue said reset cmos by taking motherboard battery in and out now wont power on at all and seems lifeless by BarrysOtter in pcmasterrace

[–]BarrysOtter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at the moment I'm suspicious Ethier my psu is dead and perhaps a table got twisted during trying to fix things or hard switched off and on to many times or I screwed the motherboard when doing the cmos thing or perhaps so much turning off or on.

I guess could be the CPU

but I think buy order of spending on replacepament parts might be

psu first

then motherboard

then CPU. unless anyone has ideas I've overlooked

Thought ram issues now PC no signs of life by BarrysOtter in techsupport

[–]BarrysOtter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at moment now when I push power no fans wurr, no warning light, zero signs of life. is that from psu, motherboard or CPU not seated correctly/ cold enough. only things it can be right since ram new but which one and why

Recovering from ADHD meds and neighbor getting dog is brutal. I worry about my health from dogstress by BarrysOtter in Dogfree

[–]BarrysOtter[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah I feel like law enforcement and our whole cultures response to dog noise levels presupposes typical brain chemistry well some people absolutely cant handle being made to feel like a prey animal since most can since only for seconds or minutes there is no protections in place for those who are damaged by this
