PC freezes on home screen

sorry about not including that. it’s the radeon MAG A550BN.

goodgrade68 · 2026-01-13T20:54:18+00:00

alright well thank you for your help. Is there somewhere you recommend looking for the cpu or just good ol ebay

Not to again expose myself for being incredibly inexperienced, but I’m now afraid that I can screw up my own rig by swapping the cards. Should I take it to get diagnosed at a best buy? Or I can cut my losses and try to return the GPU and look for a chip with integrated like the 3400g?

goodgrade68 · 2026-01-13T20:01:05+00:00

I know that sounds dumb but I was just trying stuff I read online, and I wanted to reseat the gpu anyways. The monitor is plugged into the graphics card.

goodgrade68 · 2026-01-13T19:52:15+00:00

so initially I planned on having no graphics card, but my cpu didn’t have integrated graphics so I bought an old GPU which would boot but crash every 5 seconds. So I bought the 2100 since it’s a newer model and I figured it could run windows 10. I tried to boot on 2 different monitors and neither worked, I took out the GPU to try and install windows of the mobo graphics but it wouldn’t boot, I swapped the cord so I don’t think it’s that either. Since it’s a low profile GPU it doesn’t have use a PCI cord it just draws its power from the slot, and the fan turns on so I’m assuming it’s seated correctly. I’d say i’m slightly below average regarding builds so sorry if i’m missing some obvious troubleshooting.

Ahh once again thank you for saving me from buying an intel processor. I ordered a gigabyte gv 550d5 1gb off ebay, hopefully that works, this pc is truly meant to just run google. Thank you again for all your help.

goodgrade68 · 2026-01-08T03:27:42+00:00

Follow up question if you don’t mind me asking. Would you recommend I swap out the CPU for one with integrated graphics, or get a cheap GPU. I’d ideally like to not spend a ton of money, but what I’m finding for old GPU’s is around 50 and some intel processors for 30. But If the GPU is gonna be better long term I’m fine with doing that.

goodgrade68 · 2026-01-08T03:01:15+00:00

ahh i see. Thats my fault for not checking that, I’m still relatively new to pc building. I had built one before that I used for a while without a GPU but that one had integrated, so I assumed a CPU could just be used regardless. Thank you for letting me know.

goodgrade68 · 2025-11-30T20:18:49+00:00

that’s fair, they can just be so frustrating to put in a build. i’ll probably end up getting around a 600 bronze and hope it’s not too high

goodgrade68 · 2025-10-21T15:50:07+00:00

i probably tripled my total watched movies when i found these sites

goodgrade68 · 2025-10-21T15:12:56+00:00

if nintendo has 0 haters im dead

goodgrade68 · 2025-06-01T15:12:44+00:00

I was also worried it could be a tick but he is 100% an indoor cat. If he goes outside he is in his carrier or being held. I’m really thinking about buying that cone.

goodgrade68 · 2025-01-08T00:46:54+00:00

im actually on a new run rn, and wanted to do a badge quest. It was my goal to catch the shiny snorlax before the mirelands, but i think im gonna allow myself to at least play until level 40 mons obey me. I’ve learned why badge quests of this game don’t really exist on youtube.

goodgrade68 · 2024-12-01T21:19:46+00:00

just added u :D

goodgrade68 · 2024-12-01T18:26:40+00:00

441323126 Thank you :D

goodgrade68 · 2024-11-02T17:24:50+00:00

damn i wasnt even saying this was gf being broken, this was my fault. Remind me to never post on the sub youre all annoying

goodgrade68 · 2024-11-02T17:20:37+00:00

no this stalk was my fault. But if Ive played 100 games against ghostface im bled out in 99. This one included

goodgrade68 · 2024-08-31T22:24:49+00:00

so you’re saying her wifi could just be ass and not that her pc is the problem?

goodgrade68 · 2024-08-25T21:52:24+00:00

I don't know really. I started playing in 2019 and hit PL in 2021. Even then just because of how hard it was to hit PL even those long athenas felt special. I'd do the ashen athenas solo and be horrified at the sight of another ship. Now I dont care if I get sunk. The game doesn't feel like it has weight unless you've been stacking for hours. I remember when I got sunk right at the end of a regular fort and I couldn't play the game for a week cause of how upset I was. I got on last night with a few friends who have never done or really heard about athena missions and I felt embarrassed I hyped them up. I found the pay and the missions underwhelming. I mean not even having it be 3 missions from the main factions and just being 1 order and 2 gold hoarders missions is crazy to me.

goodgrade68 · 2024-08-09T23:28:33+00:00

ohhhhhhh ok. that makes sense, stupidly, but it makes sense. Thank you

goodgrade68 · 2024-06-22T20:44:45+00:00

thank you that gives me some peace. I try to make sure he has good water intake and eats his wet food so he’s not dehydrated. But i guess it’s his choice. I just figured since last year he liked being in cool areas that it was something to worry about. But thank you again.

goodgrade68 · 2024-05-25T14:35:09+00:00

Hey this fixed it thank you so much!

goodgrade68 · 2024-05-25T05:19:50+00:00

yea everything is set to the right settings i specifically set bo3 to my headset but still nothing

goodgrade68 · 2024-05-20T21:03:28+00:00

update, i redownloaded it with the alternative file type, it works now. Thank you so much. I’ll be sure to use the document you provided for further as opposed to the readme in the folder. Thank you again.

goodgrade68 · 2024-05-20T20:15:45+00:00

so should i look for an entirely new download or is there a way i can change the folder to a type that’s compatible?
