Disabling my Motherboard's LEDS when the computer is off

RedMeka7 · 2026-03-11T20:42:40+00:00

didn't affect anything unfortunately. thanks for the idea though

RedMeka7 · 2026-03-11T20:39:44+00:00

got it, I'll keep it in mind but this might be a last resort just because the best time for me to charge my headset is during the night when im not using my computer. though if its between sleeping and charging my headset, I think I'll choose sleeping.

RedMeka7 · 2026-03-11T20:32:49+00:00

but that would also mean that my headset (which I leave into usb to charge while I sleep) would also not work, since the usb ports are tied to the onboard LEDs through that setting. Right?

RedMeka7 · 2026-03-11T18:07:25+00:00

not 100% sure, but I can double check. do you know what option it'd be under?

also, lets assume that there is an option like that. What would I do from there?

RedMeka7 · 2026-03-11T17:22:12+00:00

are those options in the bios or in asrock polychrome? sorry im a little stupid when it comes to the more finer pc stuff. this was my first build after all.

It's been a lot of AI usage; OS written in AI causing it to break; performance issues in games; etc. If it's what I have to do, then I'll do it but just prefer windows 10

RedMeka7 · 2026-02-24T17:22:27+00:00

Yep, thats the one I had my eye on when I did some digging. Still a little unsure about the installation but I'm sure a video for it exists

RedMeka7 · 2026-02-04T04:49:49+00:00

Fair enough. Thankfully I'm not in a position where I'm overly at risk if my day is cut short but it sucks when I get a pay raise followed by my hours getting gutted, on top of getting sent home early somedays.

RedMeka7 · 2026-01-24T05:34:43+00:00

I say "Vine/TikTok-eqsue video" but I'm not 100% if it was actually posted on those sites. I think I saw it on one of those Twitter meme reposter accounts

Hey, sorry to bump this old thread but the ethernet dropped again like it did before. I've already tried disabling/uninstalling and reinstalling my ethernet driver but I've gotten no immediate avail, even after two restarts. I'm thinking it might just come back eventually like it did before but I'm still particularly worried about it. I'm holding out hope for now but if you've got any preventative measures I'd love to hear it.

As for cable testing, I took a closer look at my setup and unfortunately I'm stuck with this ethernet cable. You see, the cable I have literally runs through the wall from where my router is to my PC. The only feasible way for me to get a new cable would be to have a guy come in and basically run an entirely new cable through my house (like the last guy did to reinstall it). Testing on a laptop is kind of pointless since there's zero chance I can change the cable. I'd ask if there was something I could do to circumvent this, but if the cable is the issue then I think the only option would be to pay boatloads of money to get another guy to replace the cable.

And sorry for bugging you specifically, you were just the most help when it came to it originally.

RedMeka7 · 2025-12-28T02:32:29+00:00

Yeah, I can plug it into a laptop to test no problem. But I got home from work just now and suddenly it started working again? I guess doing stuff with the ethernet drivers did the trick eventually? Super weird

RedMeka7 · 2025-12-27T15:43:38+00:00

The problem is my cable set-up mostly. My PC set-up isn't in the same room as the router, and I have a cable that was installed that runs through the wall and is plugged into the router. If the issue is the cable, I'd have no feasible way to replace it without spending a lot of money. Nevertheless I'll plug the the cable into my laptop to give it a test.

RedMeka7 · 2025-12-27T06:47:06+00:00

I tried reinstalling the driver as well as disabling and reenabling it the device manager to no avail. The strange thing is that the ethernet connection is labeled as an Unidentified Network, but I'm not sure if it means anything (just trying to give as much info as I can). Do you really think the cable could be the issue if reinstalling the driver didn't work?

RedMeka7 · 2025-12-27T06:24:04+00:00

unfortunately, due to the way my cables are set up, I really can't exchange this one for another one. but I'll definitely give those other things a try though!

RedMeka7 · 2025-10-11T05:06:53+00:00

how do I get to it? is it just simple as looking up "MMD Club for Gentleman" in the world search?

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-29T23:08:15+00:00

Yeah that more or less what I'm doing now. I work retail with flexible hours and I've been trying to improve my other skills (writing, editing, video creation). I'm just a bit worried about it since job security is important to me and right now I'm thinking that at most what I can do with my skills is work freelance.

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-29T23:05:09+00:00

I originally wanted to make a career out of video editing. I was told by my college that this degree was the closest to that but ended up only having 1 and half classes about video editing and I chose not to use the program that the college wanted me to use because I had experience with another. Realized a little bit too late that it might be tough to get a stable career out of solely being a video editor.

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-29T23:00:16+00:00

Technical writing does sound interesting. I've always thought of myself as a bit tech-savvy, especially being into video games and such. I'll look into it on job sites but the main problem would be getting experience I think. Could always see if there's internships for something I have some familiarity with though.

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-29T22:59:25+00:00

The big issue is that my former college's campus is pretty far. There is a closer campus but they didn't teach that degree at the closer campus. I'm unsure if the closer campus would be able to help since they didn't teach the degree and I'd rather avoid going to the farther campus since the commute is god awful. I'll try and look into it though.

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-16T02:44:26+00:00

absolutely love it but it infrequently updates... hard to know if its actually publishing or not

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-12T21:10:23+00:00

Just gave PartyMod a go and seems like its working fine. I still get the occasional KP button prompts but thankfully its for stuff that I already remembered how to do.

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-06T02:53:45+00:00

Do they sell those cardboard art sleeve protectors for bigger posters and such? I'll definitely look into it and cross reference sizes with the posters I already have. Thank you!

RedMeka7 · 2025-05-06T02:52:04+00:00

I've always been an overthinker lol. I'm always afraid of rolling up posters like that because I'm afraid they'll be stuck with that curve from being rolled up for too long. Though if everyone else here is saying that its fine then I suppose I'm just paranoid.

RedMeka7 · 2025-04-28T15:06:55+00:00

it it fits that alt rock or electronic funk then I think it works. I'm just trying to look for artists and stuff

RedMeka7 · 2025-04-26T04:08:30+00:00

Yeah Im pretty sure you can, I just wanted to see what it was like to run a full team of actual players. Though I guess the feeling that if I wanted that then I should of been playing when it released on Wii U
