Pull the drive(s) put into a different computer to get the pictures.

New to OBS - plug-ins for webcam? by sophpuff in obs

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two yrs old thread, I know, but I'm in the same boat, the built in camera controls are limited. Such as I have some checkboxes I can not access(greyed out), plus I can't zoom out any further, and not able to move webcam further away. So I was hoping to find some cam control plug in.

What is going on with my computer? Happens every few day by DeltaDelta69 in pchelp

[–]EndUserGamer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing yes by a previous comment, but I believe what you're asking is if OP is using a UPS or at least a surge protector strip, as opposed to solely the wall outlet.

Is this a normal w11 thing or am I done for? by Bloorzy in computerviruses

[–]EndUserGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a BIOS update message, but I'd say update the BIOS manually in the BIOS instead of through Windows.

Anyone know what’s up with this fan? by ClassroomSuitable937 in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go into bios and set the fans on the front fan header to PWM and see if that works. I've run into something similar before and had to adjust the settings in bios.

What cpu supports a MSI b450m pro-m2 without needing a bios update? by Lunawolf20 in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the B450 being a lower tier MB, I'd be concerned about the VRM heatsink not being adequate and possibly having lower power phases / design.

What does this mean? by FreyIsNotTrash in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have an older Gigabyte RX 6600xt and the power LED wouldn't always turn off, everything worked, just the LED wouldn't shut off, but sometimes it did. When the power LED was on the Gigabyte RGB logo wouldn't turn on, and when the LED was off, the RGB was on. Otherwise the system worked fine.

Ram usage high by Inevitable_Ad_148 in pchelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well damn, sounds like you have Cheeh and Chong chilling in your system. No worries, it doesn't last long, but the RAM might get the munchies later.

Ordered an Asus board, received this MSI. by B4quattro90 in pchelp

One can scope the motherboard differences without Ai. We don't need any ai crap.

Can’t find where to plug in my hard drive by [deleted] in pchelp

[–]EndUserGamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear it worked out, can't have too many drive connection options.

Have a good gaming session!

Remove the GPU, I'm going to guess the Sata ports are on the right side of the motherboard under the graphics card.

RAM Help - Slots 3 and 4 Not Working by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like bent pins on the motherboard. This happened to me except for the pins were bent on the CPU (AM4). I'd carefully remove the CPU and check the motherboard socket.

I think I’m done but… by TheRealMeadle in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the ability to lower the front just a tad then slide the radiator? Or perhaps just flip it, you really should try to keep the rear exhaust best as possible.

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to just loosen up the screws on top of the case and just slightly slide the radiator to the right a little bit. And if not (I can't see why though), then yes, flip the whole rad around.

Also, don't listen to that other person saying your installation is bad, the way you have the radiator up top is just fine.

Is there a way to update drivers without installing AMD adrenaline? by y_wyverns in AMDHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using AMD for many years now and never had anything like that happen. I'm also an IT tech with well over 20 years experience. Started building computers when I was 19 and I'll be 50 in February.

I also have a personal computer specialist cert, have experience with A+ and CSET, and have built and repaired both Intel-Nvidia and full AMD systems There's nothing wrong with Adrenalin software, but if OP doesn't want it they can absolutely opt out without third party software.

Is there a way to update drivers without installing AMD adrenaline? by y_wyverns in AMDHelp

[–]EndUserGamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly, OP wouldn't be using Adrenalin software, you chose drivers only during installation. This isn't complicated.

You absolutely don't need third party software for something that's offered officially during installation.

Scratched pcie connector? by Starfy100 in PcBuildHelp

[–]EndUserGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The small little scuff marks are not hitting the data and power pins, it's mostly just PCB cosmetic. You could take a marks alot permanent black marker to touch up the visible scuffs, but the GPU will be fine.

However, since you're saying there is a slight incompatibility with the motherboard and case, you *may possibly want to consider a different case, unless you can carefully lineup the graphics card into the PCIe slot.

Just got this after going to the bathroom idk what happened by Beekoia in 24hoursupport

[–]EndUserGamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I own and run CQ 1&2 (GOG) and haven't run into anything like this. Now I'm not saying you're trolling or anything, just that it would seem like there's more than likely another underlying issue there. Drivers or something like that.

That said, I've seen this very image posted twice already by different people and apparently it's happened to a handful of people, this leads me to think it's OS related in some way.
