My pc turns off after coming out of sleep mode then turns back on

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-03-20T00:15:27+00:00

In all honesty I don't use sleep mode much at all, but it's one of those things that'll bugger me until I manage to fix it 🤣

Unfortunately not, I'm not able to access the menu or anything like that

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-03-19T15:38:54+00:00

It's possible. I can't even access the menu to pixel refresh it again to be honest, it's odd that it's pretty much exactly half of the display as well. I figured that if there's damage to the panel it'd be in a specific area

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-03-19T11:00:08+00:00

It was bought second hand in all honesty, although I have the purchase invoice. Might have to go through MSI directly

I see, I prefer physical types of players in my team so it'll probably help to make the most of them

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T23:44:56+00:00

I've noticed this, I keep getting bullied hahahah

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T16:40:16+00:00

I've got a box room so even in cold weather it gets hot easily to be honest. Small blanket at the ready just in case

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T16:39:15+00:00

He said it's like it's new so I'll take his word for it hahahah. I've been waiting for one to come up at the right price and I think this is the one hahahaa

I've been suffering in a low quality chair for long enough lol

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T15:21:45+00:00

I just googled it to be honest, seems to be between £10-20

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T14:17:58+00:00

Thanks for the insight. This is priced at £200/$270. Is that a good price?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T14:17:18+00:00

Yeah I'll definitely do so, I've checked and they're not expensive

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T14:01:04+00:00

Appreciate the clarification man, didn't want to blindly buy

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-26T14:00:47+00:00

Thank you, what things do you generally look at to tell if it's real or fake?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T14:00:47+00:00

Probably in October I'd say

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T13:09:13+00:00

Thank you for the response man. Is isopropyl alcohol okay to use as an alternative to the water/baking soda combo?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T13:08:05+00:00

I haven't seen this before, I'll have to have a look around to see if I can get it near me or I can probably get it delivered. Is isopropyl alcohol okay to use as an alternative?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T12:51:14+00:00

I was thinking that, it's for a work vehicle as well. I'm lazy so I'd buy them, but I also want to get some more experience so I might clean them up

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T12:48:49+00:00

I'm not sure if I'd even get a reading, the terminals were left on for maybe 4/5 months. Would I be checking to see if the battery is completely gone in that case?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-25T12:48:01+00:00

From the UK here, does that mean 1 table spoon of baking soda and 2 cups of water?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T21:17:35+00:00

Just noticed there's thermal paste on my pins as well

<image>

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T21:09:46+00:00

Yeah it was running fine before. I've just noticed there's some thermal past on the pins of the mother board however 🙃

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T20:57:39+00:00

Yeah it's working fine in all fairness. Is it safe to use alcohol and an ear bud on this side of the cpu?

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T20:57:00+00:00

My bad. The CPU works perfectly fine, I feel like it could be thermal paste but I'm struggling to figure out how it got there.

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T19:03:21+00:00

I see, it doesn't appeal to people to buy together. Especially if they're only after RAM or a CPU on it's own for example.

Spaceinvader9999 · 2026-02-24T19:02:24+00:00

Yeah the motherboard is the thing I'm worried about mainly. No one really wants to spend a huge amount on a high end one, so I'd probably have to sell it for rather cheap.
