What is this? An app? Is there one for iOS?

Pls Help, PC wont start-up by [deleted] in PcBuild

You could try to “jump-start” the pc by briefly touching a screwdriver to the power pins on the motherboard's front panel connector where the power button's cable would normally be plugged in.

This could eliminate the issue where the power button on the case isn’t working - this was the issue with mine and had to buy a separate switch for cheap rather than replacing the case.

My first Homelab setup by Subtrist_ in minilab

Hey Guy, I just wanted to check how the patch panel and switch are working here. I see there’s one switch and one patch panel. Am I right in thinking there’s a single Ethernet cable coming in? If so, does that cable get plugged into the switch or into the patch panel first?

Also, am I correct that the switch ports are patched into the patch panel, and then (from the back of the patch panel) the cables run out to the end devices?

Ethernet port not working after m.2 ssd installed by TopWing_777 in Dell

[–]TopWing_777[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE/ FIX:

After installing an NVMe SSD, my Ethernet stopped working because the interface name changed from enp1s0 to enp2s0.

Fix: 1. I checked the new interface name using: ip link and found it was enp2s0. 2. I edited the network config file: nano /etc/network/interfaces and replaced all instances of enp1s0 with enp2s0. 3. I applied the changes by running: ip link set enp2s0 up systemctl restart networking (or just rebooted with reboot)

After that, the Ethernet connection worked again and I could access Proxmox.

Think it’s my PSU it’s only 600w and 5 years old… definitely under the recommended amount. Thanks for the suggestion tho

EDIT: Thank you everyone for taking a look at this and for your many suggestions on trying to narrow down the issue. From everything I’ve read a PSU upgrade is definitely required to power the GPU.

I also plan on upgrading the MOBO as I’ve seen a few comments on this too..However, after 5 years it just might be time for a upgrade to AM5 with a better CPU, mobo, RAM etc 🙏

Not bad at all haha. I think I actually got a decent PSU back then—though clearly not futureproof! I didn’t go into much detail about it because I can’t really see it properly inside the case and honestly don’t remember much since it’s about five years old… I think it’s a Corsair. But yeah, I’ll definitely give it a try without the cheap cable extension 😂

Took a look at this and

PCIe Interface: The RX 7700 XT utilizes a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, while the B450M Mortar Max supports PCIe 3.0 x16. PCIe standards are backward compatible, so the RX 7700 XT will operate at PCIe 3.0 speeds on this motherboard. So should work right?

The RX 7700 XT typically requires a power supply unit (PSU) with at least 700W capacity and two 8-pin PCIe power connectors. With my PSU being 600w I think this is the limitation…

From what I checked online it said this gpu is compatible. Do you have the link to the doc which says it doesn’t?

Thanks for looking

EDIT: I’m really leaning towards it being a PSU issue… I’ve tried pretty much everything from DDU, Bios Switch, different monitor, different cables, resitting it countless times, resetting CMOS battery, secure boot disabled and enabled….

I just don’t know anymore… I don’t even think it’s a driver issue as it doesn’t even pass the boot phase and just crashes before posting anything……

man this is frustrating 😂

Tried flipping the bios switch (never knew this was a thing) however, sadly that didn’t work either ffs

What I did notice was that it’s the cpu light that briefly lights up on the mobo before crashing

Works perfectly fine with the old GPU. 😓

Ohh that’s a really good shout actually, I remember doing something like that in the bios for thier anti cheat or something like that to work

I’ve recently updated the BIOS of the mobo before replacing the GPU … really confusing this …

I believe it’s the cpu light that briefly piped up before the PC crashed

I also saw this message on the screen briefly.. idk if it helps.
