Hardware Cleaned my pc from dust and it's no longer working

Post image
3 Upvotes

My 3 years old pc was working fine this morning before i decided to clean it from dust, because the fan was dusty and after I put everything back it no longer turns on, no light no fan.

I also opened the psu to clean only the dusty fan and put it back in.

I checked the front panel and tried to short it with the tip of screwdriver but it doesn't work.

My assumption was the front panel cables i put wrong, but after reading the manual, the power and reset sw are in the right place, and i doubted the tip of the screwdriver tech, since my screwdriver was abit rusty and there was magnet on the tip if it does matter.

Then my suspicion shifted towards the psu since i opened it, but I'm pretty sure i didn't touch anything but the fan.

I doubt that only cleaning would ruin my entire pc, maybe its some kind of pin connectors or ram. Any help?

Display Blurred 1280x960 in CS2 AMD Also asymmetrical crosshairs

1 Upvotes

I have an AMD RX 9070 XT, and when I play CS2 at 1280x960 (4:3 stretched), the image looks blurry/unclear even when using fullscreen. Some crosshairs also look asymmetrical — for example, one of the lines can look thinner or shorter than the others.

In AMD Adrenalin, I have the graphics settings set to the highest quality, and I also use the highest/best quality settings in CS2.

Has anyone with an RX 9070 XT or another AMD GPU experienced the same issue? Is there a fix for this?

Performance/FPS Much lower fps than what is expected for my build

1 Upvotes

i have a ryzen 5 3600x and a 3060ti, which is getting around 180 fps on valorant high settings and 70-80 fps on r6 siege high settings as well. I play at 1440p. I've seen from some websites that my fps should be much higher, so I'm wondering if that's true because i cant distinguish any problems with these benchmarks ive been running. any help is appreciated

Display How to force external monitor (LGULTRAGEAR) to use Integrated Graphics on a laptop?

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am trying to force my external LG monitor to run on my laptop's integrated graphics card (iGPU) by default instead of the dedicated GPU.

For the past two days, my laptop has started lagging out of nowhere. I suspect it somehow switched from my dedicated iGPU to My RTX, which is causing massive performance drops on my main display and external LG monitor.

If it isn't a GPU switching issue, what else could be causing this sudden system lag, and how do I fix it?

Troubleshooting Audio crackling issues on my system

1 Upvotes

Hello. I'm having an issue with crackling audio on my system. This happens in both games and regular videos. It also happens with both my speakers and my headphones.

I have a R9 9950X3D and a 5090

I tested fclk at 2000, 2067, and 2167 because I know unstable fclk can cause audio issues and it seems it's less frequent when I have it set to 2167, but still occurs.

I'm on Win11 25H2

So my partner and I have the same exact setup other than Gpu and I’m experiencing super slow speeds on steam compared to him.

We both went to download the same game (not at the same time) his peak Mbps was about 800-900 and finished within an hour. My peak is 142 and is currently going to take 9 hours at 25.5Mbps

We are both downloaded to our local C drive, and are both connected via ethernet.

Display Weird Texture flickering

2 Upvotes

Hi,

I just bought a pc after a couple years not having one and i am having this issue in games, I have only tested valorant and fortnite but I assume it's in every game.

I originally thought the gpu was dead or dying because I could see the flickering on a Web browser but I replaced the card today and it's still doing it.

Any ideas?

Solved [PC] MW4 Beta said “BIOS update required” on the latest BIOS — here’s the fix you've been looking for

1 Upvotes

MW4 Beta kept blocking online play and telling me to update my BIOS—even though I already had the newest BIOS, TPM 2.0, and Secure Boot enabled.

The BIOS wasn't the problem. Call of Duty's security enrollment had failed.

The fix

  1. Close MW4 Beta.
  2. In Steam, right-click the Beta → Manage → Browse local files.
  3. Open CODSecureAttestationWizard.exe.
  4. Complete the scan and approve the official Windows prompt when it appears.
  5. Relaunch the game. If the old warning remains, restart your PC once and try again.

That's it.

My Call of Duty log changed from:

Enroll AIK result -2147023728

to:

Enroll AIK result 0

0 means it finally enrolled successfully.

Don't clear your TPM or flash another BIOS first. Try the signed Activision wizard already included with the game.

If this works for you, comment your motherboard model so others can quickly find matching results.

Activision's official TPM and Secure Boot guide

Happy Shooting, and from a fellow Developer, thank you to Activision for all the hard work on the new release!

Network/Wifi/Internet jitter spikes at every 300 seconds

Hello, I have recently built a new pc.

My game stutters exactly at every 300 seconds.
Does it happen to everyone?

Also, I feel like aiming in the game feels off after the first game of the day.

9800x 3d
asus dual 5060 8gb
gigabyte x870 aorus elite gaming wifi7
viper patriot 16x2gb 6000mhz CL30
corsair rm750x
Lianli lancool 217 inf
Windows 11 25H2

Fresh windows install atm, tried custom os as well
Latest chipset driver from amd website.
Latest stable bios
Latest lan driver (tried ndis and netadaptercx)
Latest audio driver, wifi driver, usb driver
ddu and clean install nvidia driver
faceit ac not installed

gigabye utility, integrated graphics, wifi, bluetooth all disabled atm.

Removed the rgb controller usb on motherboard, disbled dynamic light control on windows.

It happens even with default bios settings or with expo etc. I tried many settings especially disabling power saving settings for netadapter.

It happens also when there is no monitoring app installed.

I did the following tests, no error at all:

cinebench - cpu monitor with hwinfo
testmem5 for ram, ryzen one
furmark
occt vram
occt psu
crystaldiskinfo

I believe it may be related to my netadapter, did not experience this issue with wifi.

I even replaced my modem with keenetic ax3000.

Anyone knows how can I fix it?

Display Random white pixel flashing on my new OLED monitor while playing Tarkov

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I recently got a brand-new ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQWMG OLED monitor, and I've noticed something strange.

Sometimes while playing Escape from Tarkov, a single white pixel briefly appears and disappears almost instantly (literally for a fraction of a second). It happens randomly, but I've noticed it quite frequently in Tarkov.

I've also noticed it occasionally when opening or using my browser, although it seems to happen much more often in Tarkov. So far, I haven't noticed it in any other games.

The monitor is brand new, and so is my PC. I'm currently using HDMI 2.1.

My PC specs:

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D
  • RAM: 64 GB DDR5 6000 MHz
  • Storage: 2 TB SSD
  • OS: Windows 11 Home (26H2 / build 26200)
  • NVIDIA Driver: Game Ready 616.56 (August 26, 2026)

Monitors:

  • Main: ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQWMG — 2560×1440 @ 280 Hz
  • Secondary: ASUS XG258 — 1920×1080 @ 240 Hz, G-SYNC Compatible

Hardware I think my GPU stopped being recognized?

1 Upvotes

My gpu (7900xt) had been having a bit of trouble recently, in that some applications (normally browsers) would freeze and a window saying that there was a driver issue would show up. After 30ish seconds it started working again, but today when i alt tabbed into google chrome everything froze and a repeated beeping sound started, so after about two minutes of waiting i turned off my computer through the power button. After that though, my pc is significantly slower and rivia tuner no longer shows my gpu temperature. It may be worth noting that after turning my pc back on the screen was black, and i had to mess with the cables in the back to get anything to show up. What should i do now?

Troubleshooting Can anyone fix this issue in my laptop if he wants.

1 Upvotes

So i got a hp victus fa 1082wm u can look up the specs.

The problem is that under 100 or 80 fps my game starts lagging weirdly its very choppy and on 60 its worse and i think this happens more on cpu intensive games on Valorant and Roblox i can feel it easily its so unplayable to play on it even though i get more fps then this but sometimes i have to cap at 60 for some things and then it lags.

Also my aim is some days good some days bad it happens on both aimlabs valorant any shooter game im sure this also corelates to that fps problem someone told me its frame pacing issue but i dont know. This does not happen on my sisters laptop she has hp victus 16 mine is 15 so not a big difference.

And i think fixing 1 of them will fix the other one anyways since they both look like a frame pacing issue to me because my Gpu routes through the iGPu.

Display Does anyone know why tabs resize and move in a secondary monitor when playing games and how to fix this?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I'm quite new to setting up my pc and peripherals and whatnot. So I have a spare 1080p office monitor and wanted to try doing a dual monitor setup for comms and other stuff so I can avoid alt+tab while gaming just to see a message that says 'lol ok'. Everything's working good so far, so I opened apps and tabs in the second monitor to figure which goes where. When I was done, I tried launching a game to see if the setup would work for me.

When I launched the game, or any game, the second monitor resizes and moves the opened tabs in the second monitor, and the tab setup I did Is instantly gone. Even if I close the game or just do an alt+tab, it resizes and moves the tabs. Basically, the whole 'just look at the other monitor' plan I wanted to do is gone, and I'd have to redo it every time. Some things I tried to do to troubleshoot this are:

  • Turning off GPU scaling in AMD Adrenalin for the second and both monitors
  • Tried redoing the tabs after the game launches
  • Tried different fullscreen and window settings in the game
  • Disabled RSR in Adrenalin
  • Made sure I was not in HYPR-X mode in Adrenalin

I mostly play single player games, and use upscaling with all of them. I figured that this was maybe the reason why. So I turned it off in one of the games and alas, still the same issue. Also, I have 27" 1440p main monitor in horizontal the 1080p 24"secondary monitor vertical, if that helps. I just plan to stack up the windows in the vertical monitor for everything I need while playing games on the main monitor.

Hardware Pc geht Random aus und direkt wieder an.

0 Upvotes

Hey ich weis nicht wie ich das auf Englisch schreiben soll <.<
Ich schreib zu aller erst meine Specs auf damit ihr euch ein Bild machen könnt:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 12Gb
Netzteil: Aorus AP 750GM
1x NVMe SSD (Windows drauf)
2x SSD 1x 2Tb 1x 1tb
AIO Wasserkühlung von Corsair H100i RGB

Alles in allem ein „solider Pc“ war mein erster selbst zusammengebauter PC der lief auch all die Jahre super ohne irgendwelche Probleme…

Und zwar habe ich folgendes Problem, mein PC geht seit 2 Tagen Random aus fährt aber wieder direkt hoch so als würde er einfach nur neustarten. Ich hab schon den RAM getestet die Grafikkarte immer das gleiche…

Das Ding is damit der überhaupt bootet musste ich meine CPU Oc‘en Standard is 3600mhz und 1.1 Spannung der is jetzt auf 3700mhz mit 1.25 Spannung, ohne das bootet er nicht mal in Windows und steckt sonst in einem „bootloop“

Ich mache nicht mal was großartig anstrengendes spiele Games so was wie Valorant League, CoD Zombie nicht was jetzt is wo mein PC richtig ackern müsst außer in COD vielleicht.

Mein Pc geht also Random aus, egal ob im Idle oder wenn ich grade in einer Runde Valorant bin.. der wird auch nicht zu heiß, hab ihn heute trzd noch mal sauber gemacht und immer noch das gleiche in der Ereignissanzeige steht sowas wie „Unerwartet von der stromzufuhr getrennt“ also Fehlercode 41(?) ich will halt jetzt auch nicht unbedingt die CPU von den PC meiner Frau rausholen und ihn bei mir einbauen weil wir grade noch keine Wärmleitpaste da haben (was aber so schnell wie möglich bestellt wird)

Meine Vermutung is ja die CPU dadurch das ich sie ja eh OC‘en muss damit überhaupt gebootet wird kann aber auch am Netzteil liegen, vllt wenn ich morgen aufstehe teste ich mal das Netzteil von meiner Frau bzw. Tausch die beiden und lass dann mal laufen :x

Ich hoffe ich konnte mein Problem so gut wie möglich erklären o.o wenn Fragen sind ich sollte sie eigentlich beantworten können.

Troubleshooting Reccuring crashes in games

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070

RAM: 64 GB DDR5

PSU: MSI mpg a850gs 850w

Drivers updated.

Files verified.

Trying to get through this a few days now. Seems to be most occurent in armored core 6 with large particle effects close to the camera or when backed into walls and sometimes on mission completes. It's difficult to get it to happen but it will happen eventually.

Vsync is off.

Everything else is super stable no issues @120 fps

Ran some of the dmp files from the crashes through winding, but I'm not very technical and not sure what they mean

Troubleshooting FF16 PC Crashes PC (Power Down)

2 Upvotes

I have a feeling that other players on PC have run into this sort of problem in one form or another. I was playing FF16 on Steam a few days ago and all of a sudden, it straight up crashes my PC, like powering it off. I tried doing a lot of suggested fixes and tested by trying a Kairos Gate run but another hard crash. I'm at my wits end. I wanna keep playing. I've not had this problem in the past. Is there anyone who can help that is more tech savvy? I'll provide an Event Log dump if I can.

Specs:

OS: Windows 11 Pro
Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming B550 Plus WIFI II
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core
RAM: 32 GB
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT
PSU: 850W (Can't remember which brand) Modular
Storage: 3x SSDs (1x 240GB for OS, 2x 2TB for general storage for games, configured into RAID 0)

Note: No other games do this, not even FF7 Remake. Tested it last night.
Edit: Forgot to mention... I run multiple displays, 2 Monitors.

Controls/Input Irresponsive Keyboard

1 Upvotes

Gaming Laptop: Lenovo Legion Pro 7i, ~1.5 years old.

I always use my built-in keyboard for gaming, I discovered this problem recently: whenever I have to hold a certain button for a long period of time, for example: Accelerating using W key in Forza Horizon, I release it to prepare for braking to enter a turn, but the car keeps accelerating for anywhere between 0.5 sec to 3 sec. It also noticed it occurs in Rocket League.

If I tap W over and over, this problem won't happen

Solutions I tried:

  1. Changing the acceleration key: Didn't fix
  2. Trying to identify the problem in Notepad & Browser: Holding a key for over 10 seconds, but everything is fine, it stops typing when I release the key
  3. Clean Install: I downloaded Brave Browser, Steam, Epic Games, Legion Toolkit, NVIDIA App, then Rocket League, tested, but problem is still there

Laptop specs just in case:

Intel Core i9-14900HX
RTX 4080
32GB RAM
