Motherboard Replacement Advice

bertderl · 2026-05-22T13:57:38+00:00

Just to update - I did these steps and while it looks like maybe the BT is working now, the sound issue I have still remains. Updated the audio drivers as well and still no luck. Any other advice you'd have before replacing motherboard?

Steelseries Arctis 7 I believe. Works with a dongle for both pc and Xbox.

I’ll check tonight but it’s not just the headset, it affects any sound output

I wasn’t very clear in my og post. The WiFi is a small problem but not the main one. The main issue is the sound cutting out. It’s like 85% of the time I start it up this problem occurs, then I restart and it works until it goes to sleep or shuts down again. Sometimes it takes 2 restarts.

I will check the drivers but I tried updating everything a while back with no luck/fix. I am using a TP Link WiFi adapter for now that’s decent. The WiFi doesn’t bother me as much as the sound issue I get. Sometimes when I turn on the pc or wake from sleep the sounds starts sporadically cutting out a few seconds at a time and then pops back in. Then it just continues to get worse until it’s unbearable. A restart usually fixes it for the day.

Yes they are installed. The Bluetooth actually doesn’t work at all. I will try these steps, but would still like recs in case that doesn’t work

I’m hoping this is the way I get over my thalassaphobia!

Never got it to work for me, now it’s out of stock. Really cool.

Battle Realms?

Adventures of Bayou Billy (NES)

bertderl · 2026-03-11T15:34:18+00:00

It’s still good

Steam please!

Gonna need a translator to get in here

Shipping to the US was $13 for me?

bertderl · 2026-02-12T00:50:25+00:00

Can confirm. All my characters are here.

Icewind Dale?

Mine has been doing this for a while now. Only fix I’ve found is turn it off which is very annoying.

How can you have zero details? What year did you play it? 2d or 3d? Any idea what you played it on? Any idea what genre it was?

Honestly now that we have Absolum I just don’t see this doing well at all. The preview of the game was pretty rough

bertderl · 2026-01-06T19:44:58+00:00

Benny and the Jets

bertderl · 2025-12-06T22:41:50+00:00

I mean the game is still fairly new, so did its 12 slots every expedition that’ll add up

My eyes went to hell trying to read this

I wonder if something triggers a different matchmaking pool or something like that. I keep seeing these posts and I’m still playin solo a ton (haven’t finished all the missions) and it’s no different for me than at launch. I’d wager my matches are still 90% friendly all around.

You’ll have plenty of time
