My PC seems to be getting locked at around 15 fps. It first started when I opened CS2. The game launched fine initially and was running at 200+ fps but as soon as I moved my mouse the FPS instantly dropped to exactly 15 and my entire PC/desktop also dropped to extremely low fps.

I opened AMD Adrenalin and it says my 9070 XT is at 100% utilization with 3000+ mhz clock speeds even while sitting on the desktop. The weird part is my temps stay around 50-55C, so the utilization/power/clocks don’t seem to match.

Task Manager shows completely different numbers than adrenaline, usually around 5-20% GPU utilization.

Things I’ve already tried:
- Reinstalled AMD drivers normally
- Reinstalled again using Factory Reset
- Cleared shader cache
- Verified CS2 game files
- Disabled Wallpaper Engine
- Closed SteelSeries GG / Sonar
- Checked monitor refresh rate (280Hz is set correctly)

The desktop sometimes feels normal after rebooting, but as soon as I launch CS2 and move my mouse the whole system goes back to 15 fps.

I have no clue what is causing this. I’ve heard about DDU uninstaller before and am thinking about trying that, but I’m not at all familiar with the process.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hey everyone, so I was playing DMC 5 on my Acer Nitro V15 when all of a sudden the game froze, had like some purple outlines or glitches on my screen then force restarted. After restarting, I noticed that my laptop was slower than usual, so I tried restarting it again, but nothing happened. I checked if some of my files got corrupted, and yeah some were corrupted. After fixing the corrupted files, I restarted once again and nothing changed. I even checked my hard drive and I still had a lot of space available. I genuinely don’t know whats happening and if someone could help me, I’d greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

My PC is working fine. Just bought a new case, AIO. Updated the bios before transferring the components to a new case.

Cleaned all the components before transferring. Re-sited every thing, m.2 drive, ram, gpu, cpu, SSDs, HDDs.

After transferring all the components, my PC is working just fine.

Now I wanted to format my PC but the m.2 drive(where my OS is currently installed) is not showing as a location for windows installation.

So I installed a new OS on a different drive for now(So I have 2 OS now on different drives). Once I’m on the desktop I went to disk manager to try to format my M2 drive and it’s not showing on the list of available drives.

Here are some informations that may help:

1. I have the latest sata driver from mobo’s website.
2. While using the OS from that m.2 drive, I can see the drive from disk manager.
3. Bitlocker is off as I checked.
4. M.2 drive is showing in bios

*Note
My PC is working fine. It’s just I want to re install a fresh OS on that m.2 drive

I have r5 3500x and asus prime b550mk and a 2x4gb 3200mhz 1Rx16 ddr4 ram. I tried to turn it on and it gives me no display not even at the bios just black screen. I tried to switch different ram slots and simultaneously use my 2 sticks of ram and still no use. i tried to turn on the pc with only cpu mobo and gpu and it gives me a 1 long beep and 2 short beep just once. I put the ram back and it doesn't beep but still no display. The gpu is fine i use it everyday in my old setup.

Now, i went to a repair shop, and they only use the cpu motherboard, video cable connected to the board and their own ram and they solely rely on caps lock of the keyboard and no gpu till they get a no response

I was playing in my pc when the monitor suddenly shuts down and said “no signal” before turning completely black. I had this occurrence before and did what I did last time. I took the cmos out for 30~ seconds and cleaned it then placed it back in, although unlike before, it did not work. I also removed the ram sticks and placed it back inside and it did not work as well. I tried ctrl windows shift b at the same time and it did NOT work.

Ps: my keyboard and mouse lights up

So I used to really like watching this YouTuber play a game when I was younger, and now that I’m getting a computer, I’m trying to download it. I got it from Game Jolt.

I downloaded it, and it went to my Downloads folder. You know the little window that opens on the side of the browser after something downloads? I clicked “Open File,” and it opened my Files folder with the game right there.

I clicked on it and pressed the application, but then it said:

“This application may depend on other compressed files in this folder for this application to run properly. It is recommended that you first extract all files.”

So I clicked “Extract All,” and then it said:

“Files will be extracted to this folder.”

I pressed “Extract,” and it started copying 108 items totaling 6.32 GB. The green bar went all the way to the end, and it finished copying.

After that, I clicked on the application again, but it just showed the exact same message about the application depending on other compressed files. If I press “Run,” it gives me an error and says I can’t play or open the application. Please help

My started to freeze after leaving a game open, when i came back I forced shutdown my pc then after reopening it, minutes later it happens again and repeats every time now.

Troubleshooting Ive already done:
- Run DISM then sfc scan
- Reseating gpu and ram
- Alternate Ram and their slots
- Clear CMOS
- run on igpu without gpu installed
- ssd is at 96% based from CrystalDisk
- Disabled all 3rd party services in msconfig

Note that it runs perfectly inside safe mode, it only happens in normal boot even without doing any task. Activity light for ssd on case also stops working when it freezes.

This pc is already old and do plan on upgrading it but i need to save up first. I use my pc for school and need it for my course, I rarely play games these days. Any help will do!

This laptop is supposed to be for college. I am so fucked if this thing is toast. Please help me with anything you know.

I am a first time pirate. Used Ryujinx Canary to play Tomadachi Life: LTD on my recently acquired ThinkPad E16 (Ryzen 7 7735u AMD Radeon graphics 16gb DDR4). I downloaded it about three days ago and today, after I downloaded an update for Ryujinx Canary itself, it kept crashing when I was loading the game. I then noticed that my laptop wouldn’t unmute with the F1 button. I was already messing around with Ryujinx to try and fix the crash and I deleted some other versions of the emulator that I had. After that I tried to get help from the Internet for the audio when I randomly tried turning off the audio then, for some reason, losing permissions to enter my settings and other Windows related apps, I then tried to take the apps off of the quick bar because the internet told me to. I tried shutting down the computer, like the guide said to do, and when turning it back on, it said hello and my name before I touched the fingerprint scanner. It wouldn’t take the fingerprint but would say do other fingers. I tried entering my pin. Nothing. I don’t know what is happening anymore.

Got into the interrupted startup screen and my password settings were fine. I didn’t get into safe mode when I tried tho. I am an amateur with windows computers though. I still can’t get it and I need to know where to go from here.

Sincerely,

Regretful pirate

This game I play requires me to have my bootstrap or whatever it's called on UEFI, but when I convert from Legacy to UEFI, my computer no longer will launch. So then I tried to follow internet instructions that told me to convert my disk partition I think from MBR to GPT but it always fails when I try. What do I do from here because there are no instructions on what to do if the conversion fails?

UPDATE: I got the command to validate but now it will not convert and says that the EFI could not find space. What do I do from here?

My TPM is already disabled. I would like not to do a clean reset. I also tried creating an extra partition using the unallocated space while keeping 200 mbs available but yielded the same failure message.

SOLVED

Solution:

Add these lines to "~/.profile":

if [  "$SHELL" == "/bin/sh" -a -x /bin/bash ]; then
    export SHELL=/bin/bash
    exec /bin/bash --login
fi

if [ "$BASH" ] ; then source ~/.bashrc ; fi

Create file "~/.bashrc" if it doesn't exist

Add these lines to "~/.bashrc":

HISTFILE=~/.bash_history

Run commands:

source ~/.bashrc
source ~/.profile

Restart NAS

==================================

Hello. I'm using a Synology NAS, and I'm trying to make it so my bash commands history stays there even after restarts or updates. Currently, the bash commands history gets cleared when the system restarts.

I read that running "bash --login" can create the ".bashrc" and ".bash_history" files, so I ran it on the NAS via SSH with my user, but it didn't create the files.

When I run "echo $HISTFILE", it returns "/var/tmp/.bash_history", but running "ls -ap /var/tmp/" doesn't show a ".bash_history" anywhere in that directory. Plus, the "/var/tmp/" directory gets cleared everytime the system restarts, so if it actually is there somehow, then it's a bad place for it to be anyway.

I also read that "/etc.defaults/" has a ".bashrc_profile" file that stays there even after the system restarts and updates, although I'm not sure how I'm supposed to use that info at the moment.

How do I create the ".bashrc" and ".bash_history" files, and have them stay on the system after restarting and updating?

I used to use integrated graphics and now I tried to add a gpu and the gpu is in perfect condition but the problem is the display i have a challenger b450m motherboard and there’s a blue light

Hi everyone,

I'm having some frustrating black screen issues with my GPU and could really use some help figuring out the cause.

The Problem:

When I first boot up my PC, I get a black screen. The display turns off and comes back on a few times before finally stabilizing.

The same black screen issue happens randomly when I'm gaming or even just watching videos.

After the screen eventually comes back, I always get an AMD error message pop-up on the screen (likely a driver timeout, but it happens constantly).

What could be causing this? Has anyone experienced something similar? Any advice on whether this is a driver issue, a hardware problem (like PSU or GPU), or something else entirely would be greatly appreciated!

My Specs:

​CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 9600X

​GPU: Sapphire Pure RX 9060 XT 16GB

​Motherboard: ASUS B650E MAX GAMING WIFI

​RAM: KLEVV Cras V RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-6000 CL30

​Cooler: Thermalright Mjolnir Vision 360

​PSU: ASUS PRIME AP-750G 750W 80+ Gold

​Storage: 2TB Samsung 990 PRO

​Case: HYTE Y70 Snow White

Thanks in advance!

Have an Alienware whose power supply crapped out. It's a dell d850ef-00. However, I can't afford $300+ in the near future to replace it and I don't trust eBay. Any pros have a comparable/ compatible one they could recommend that's not so pricey. I can handle up to $200
