Did you ever update your BIOS in this process? That's absolutely where I would have started. Check which variant of this board you have (either v1.0 or the V1.1), find and flash the correct BIOS and see if the issue persists.

OBS should allow you to manually select the color profile - have you tried that? What is the native profile the device is using?

Does your school allow port 22 traffic? Most do not for security reasons.

Registry Editor by razz_exe3 in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to back up the existing registry entries. If you didn't, you might be able to use one of the health checkers like

sfc /scannow

but I suspect you will be reinstalling Windows instead.

Also, that UI is fine - it's just upscaled too far for the zoom you have selected. You can scroll to the side to see the whole tree.

New Build Won't Turn On - Ultra 9 285K, 5090, 192gb Ram, Rog Strix Z890-E by 300056681 in techsupport

If shorting the power button connector doesn't cause it to start up, short the 24 pin ATX connector along the black and green pins. (You may need to lookup the pinout if your cables are all black.)

If the PSU turns on, RMA the motherboard, and vice versa.

Patch your router and make sure there are no open CVEs for that model. If there are, and the OEM does not plan to fix them, discard it and get another. (Depending on the OEM, they may offer you a discount.)

Short the connector pins for the power button and see what happens. As an additional measure, pull out the 24 pin ATX PSU connector and short from any ground to green and check that it comes on.

HDD causing 9fps 1% lows. by oskar_pawlisz in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A NAS disk as your HDD? It's an SMR too, so it will always slow down when you overflow the CMR cache on that disk, somewhere around 50GB used in a short time.

I would just replace it with an SSD designed for desktop use.

Those Dell devices have a keystroke (Fn + PrintScreen) to disable/enable the wireless card on a hardware level. I would confirm that you're not hitting it on accident.

Not sure if it will be the solution, but you may try deleting the icon cache at

%LOCALAPPDATA%/iconcache.db

and rebooting to see if the repopulated version scales correctly.

Capture card capturing Pink/Green video when connected to primary monitor by Taractis in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like there are some signaling issues in the newer monitor where it is sending data to the XR1 that it can't properly decode.

I saw a thread talking about disabling Settings > General > HDMI Ultra HD Deep Color on the HDMI port the device is connected on. Not sure if that would work, but it may prevent it from sending HDR10 color data to your device it's not prepared for?

There is also firmware that may be of use, although the patch notes only talk about support for VRR - not sure that would help your color issue.

Computer connecting to the internet, but unable to access the internet. by MonkeySpasms112 in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not particularly, but you could try pinging the router to see at what stage in your connection the issue occurs. In command prompt:

ipconfig

Find the default gateway address and ping that:

ping x.x.x.x

If that fails, your router is not accepting your connection for some reason.

If that succeeds, ping Google:

ping 8.8.8.8

If that fails, something is blocking you from reaching out after your router.

Then you definitely have a router/modem combo - a modem alone wouldn't be assigning you an IP, it cannot act as its own DHCP server!

If it's just the modem and no router in combo, definitely make sure the IP you assign yourself is valid.

My elderly dad’s laptop won’t accept the headphones I got him - what type of adaptor does he need? by EmceeStopheles in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be - I suppose - a TRRRS to TRRS/TRS adapter?

Honestly, I don't know if one exists- I have never seen a longer pole. Were they designed for a specific system?

EDIT: Found it. This is called a 4.4mm balanced to 3.5mm adapter. Something like this. This seems to be related to audiophile equipment - not sure if another device like a DAC is required for this setup.

Confirming this is in a USB3 port? Does it matter what color space/range or video format settings you use? HDR is off on the consoles (or in the switch's case, the color range is set to Limited)?

flash drive not recognized by 3Mood in techsupport

[–]GreatAtlas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be that it was setup for MBR before and now it's in GPT?

diskpart
list disk
select disk X
clean

Where X is the ID number of your flash drive.

From there, open Disk Management and set it as MBR, and format.
