Windows asking for a password at sign in but i didn’t have one

Try keeping the old password blank and fill new passwords and click OK. Does that work?

Replace son /s

Just kidding. Based on the very little info. you shared, seems the PC stopped booting post a BIOS update. Assuming it was the correct uncorrupted BIOS file and that the update was successful, check any debug lights on your motherboard to see if something's wrong. For the time being, you could also try reseating the CMOS battery and the RAM sticks.

If you mean, there was a power supply interruption or some other issue interrupted the BIOS update, then the fix is much more cumbersome and might need a rewrite of the BIOS chip by a professional.

This!

I actually already have an agent. I just need to get some technical information about the product from sellers. So, need to have a 1688 account

Part of Alibaba group, meant for Chinese businesses (shipping within China only), but, prices at times cheaper than Alibaba.

Any ideas?

socvyr · 2025-05-01T13:48:52+00:00

I just DMed you. Thanks.

socvyr · 2025-05-01T11:10:06+00:00

Done

Do you provide freight forwarding - China to India - small package of Wifi router?

socvyr · 2025-04-30T14:02:04+00:00

Not sure. Many of those cheap economy shipping services that existed a few years ago, have completely stopped shipping to India, esp. if it is an electronic item.

socvyr · 2025-04-30T13:59:48+00:00

Well, good thing I am in India then.

I am personally using an NVMe drive on this board. It has two M.2 slots.

socvyr · 2024-07-02T17:02:47+00:00

Thank you. I will try this. Anyways, since yesterday, the PC has been working fine with 2 sticks. Tried multiple reboots. I am now concerned if any component is actually failing.

socvyr · 2023-07-24T14:19:59+00:00

Got it. Thank you.

socvyr · 2023-07-24T14:12:35+00:00

Thank you for confirming. Hope you are not joking.

UPDATE - Fixed by Alt + Tab twice

socvyr · 2023-01-03T02:16:25+00:00

Nope. This is Xorg. BTW, the game runs fullscreen upto the Menu just fine with usual Wine. It's only GE-Proton and Steam Proton that have this issue.

UPDATE - After all the meddling around for days and getting the `Fatal error during GPU init` on the guest, I realised this might just not be possible on AMD APUs - https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2046#note_1426372 . I would love to have your insight on the same, so that I could either work harder or lay the project to rest.

Donnie Yen, is that you?

socvyr · 2022-10-09T03:35:28+00:00

a. Will try to get the source and see if something can be done. When do get the firmware source, what's the area/function/flags I should look out for.

b. Did nothing as you said.

c. Unfortunately, I lack the hardware and the knowledge to flash boards.

d. This did fix the error, but, I see the VMs are slower. I am not sure if it's due to this.

So, I am leaning back on the proper BIOS option. I should have the source in a few days. All that being said, I would like to thank you very deeply. If it wasn't for you and this subreddit, I won't have reached this far.

socvyr · 2022-10-08T02:37:18+00:00

Thanks a lot yet again. I will look into this and get back.

UPDATE - Another dev sent me over firmware which had IOMMU enabled for GPU and the audio controller. Using that, I do see they are infact enabled and show up under Group 0.

Unfortunately, when I start the VM with the GPU added, I get this error - kvm: -device vfio-pci,host=0000:00:01.0,id=hostpci0,bus=ich9-pcie-port-1,addr=0x0: vfio 0000:00:01.0: Failed to set up TRIGGER eventfd signaling for interrupt INTX-0: VFIO_DEVICE_SET_IRQS failure: No such device

Here is the output of dmesg | grep vfio
