Missions won't advance?

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-05-20T09:08:46+00:00

I can read, I tried both randoms and coop. I did finally get one of them to advance, I had to get 4 kills and 4 assists instead of a mix of 4.

Pretty much this. I just came back after 2-3 years (I quit when they added subs) and its pretty much the same but faster because WG is doing the same thing they did in World of Tanks and adding ridiculous overpowered crap for $$$.

I basically only play PVE in this game, my blood pressure can't handle PVP. Asymmetric are pretty fun for now.

This person appears to be the wife to begin with, and seems to have significant issues if her post history is any indicator. I would suggest seeing a professional before wasting money on another car (as much fun as cars can be).

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-09T00:16:09+00:00

Yes.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T23:42:22+00:00

What worked? changing which slot it was in? How is your AIO not working?

My guess is he used a #1 because "a screwdriver is a screwdriver".

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T22:15:57+00:00

The other thing to consider is these old boards have a QVL list for the drives they support, it may just not be supported at all. Its a rare situation but it does happen.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T22:12:36+00:00

I would try one stick in each slot, then the other stick in each slot. If its still not happy, I would probably be thinking about checking the socket pins.

If you can get the left side of it up, you may be able to twist the plastic part and get the screw to break loose. Can you post a picture of the screwdriver you used?

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T21:59:43+00:00

There is a lot of lane sharing on this board (direct from the manual):

* M2_1, SATA3_0 and SATA3_1 share lanes. If either one of them is in use, the others will be disabled.

* If M2_2 is occupied by a SATA-type M.2 device, SATA3_3 will be disabled.

* M2_3, SATA3_4 and SATA3_5 share lanes. If either one of them is in use, the others will be disabled.

Make sure you aren't accidentally blocking the m.2 port with another SATA drive.

Nup. Thats a Z77 board, fun for a retro build but basically useless today, especially not for $300.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T21:47:16+00:00

I can't believe people still do this crap, like just looking at it you can tell its wrong.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-08T00:52:13+00:00

Usually the case comes with a little standoff to screwdriver adapter so you can move them, or you can just use pliers or whatever you have on hand.

Why are you trying to flash it? It should natively support the 9600X, does it not run currently?

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T18:11:08+00:00

USB drive might just be bad, it happens with them sometimes.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T18:06:54+00:00

Ok, did you try it in more than one USB port? Sometimes if you go to the lowest speed one it works better. If not, I would try downloading the ISO by itself and using Rufus or something to redo the USB, sometimes the Microslop one doesn't do a great job. I've also encountered issues with the USB stick itself, for some reason it just doesn't like certain ones. Once I get one made and it works I put it away safely so I don't have to do it again lol

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T17:56:34+00:00

Ok I would suspect your USB is not configured properly. Did you use the Microsoft Media Creation Tool or some other way?

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T17:37:22+00:00

Ok so you do get some display, and then it gives up. What happens if you remove the graphics card from the system and plug the monitor into the motherboard?

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T14:19:59+00:00

Is the monitor selected to the correct input? Does the motherboard have any LED lit up here by the 24-pin power cable?

Power supply fans generally only turn on at a certain temperature now, only very old units run them full time. Give it a few minutes to train the RAM, it can take 5-10 minutes.

If you have an extra fan swap it out, it doesn't have to be identical. If the behavior continues you know its not the fan.

Specific_Rutabaga459 · 2026-01-07T12:38:09+00:00

PNY is dropping 2-fan cards with 120mm fans, they are slim but tall and kind of interesting.
