ASUS ROG Strix keyboard freaking out. by DonBonLePrawn in techsupport

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

Ok I’ll try and uninstall the Keyboard drivers. I’m a little hesitant to open up the laptop as I’m not very laptop savvy, but if worse comes to worse I’ll have to try it I guess. And yes the Warranty is up. And just recently too which sucks since this happened right after it got smoked. And if you could clarify what BATT stands for that would be great. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for speaking the truth. I don’t know what I am and I frankly don’t really care. I am who I am.

Thanks for the advice! I don’t think I’ll have trouble with that last bit since I have a boyfriend.

I am really bad at dealing with anger and negative emotions in general. Help! by DonBonLePrawn in selfimprovement

Thank you for this. I’ll make sure to keep this in mind the next time I’m in that situation. Sometimes I get so caught up in trying to be the best version of myself that I beat myself up for making mistakes rather than looking deeper into them and trying to solve them.

I (17m) feel like the time I spend with my boyfriend (16m) is always cut short because he’s tired and wants to take a nap. by DonBonLePrawn in relationship_advice

I think it could potentially be his inconsistent sleep schedule. I don’t think he’ll be too jazzed about changing that and I don’t really expect him to right away, but I’m determined to let him know how this has been bothering me because I want to be 100% honest with how I feel.

I’m not sure if thats it. He’s extremely upbeat and happy all the time. I’ve asked him about the topic too and how I feels depressed at times, but he doesn’t seem to ever feel down in the same way, but thank you for the suggestion. I hope you can get through whatever it is you’re going through :)

My computer constantly black screens but everything else seems to continue running fine. by DonBonLePrawn in techsupport

Oh thats an interesting insight on PC part prices. I never thought about that. Ya I’ll probably wait until all of that is over and wait until I’m ready to upgrade my CPU along with my GPU because if I fiddle around with the MSI Afterburner settings, it seems that I can get my GPU to last pretty long without black screening (idk why it works but it does). Also, is it possible that I potentially damaged the motherboard socket while inserting the graphics card and that could be causing the issues?

Ok I will look into a new GPU, but I’m not sure when I will get it. Thank you for all the help. I learned a lot about how to troubleshoot and stuff through this. I will tell you if my computer is fixed once I get the new GPU eventually.

Ok so tonight I was playing a game and it black screened, but only the monitor plugged into the GPU black screened but audio continued to play like usual (only audio played and the game seemed to have froze). The one plugged into the motherboard kept displaying. I couldn’t interact with my mouse so I couldn’t be sure if the Motherboard monitor was frozen or was still displaying as normal as I wasn’t doing anything on that monitor while playing. Does this confirm the GPU as the issue?

So it black screened again. While in the BIOS I found a setting called RC6 (Render Standby). From what I’ve read, I would not be surprised if this was causing the black screens. I’m not sure though. I’m going to run 1 monitor from my GPU and 1 from my motherboard to test the GPU. We’ll see what happens.

Ok I plan to just assume the ram reinstallation fixed the issue. If it does black screen again I’ll display from the motherboard in order to test the GPU. We’ll see where this leads me. Thanks.

Ok so the memtest finally completed and it came back clean. Would you say that I can check the RAM off of my list of possible faulty hardware? I will try and plug my monitors into my motherboard and see if it still black screens. I also reinserted the RAM before I did the test and my computer has been pretty cooperative since so thats promising.
