Try using pc parts picker, scroll to the bottom for some compatibility notes. I don't see any glaring issues. Be sure to get a cpu cooler though https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tB4fFg

Interesting, I haven't seen that design before. What model/brand drive is that? You can try prying/rotating the thing on top of the spindle to see if it moves. I wouldn't recommend it, but some brute force with a common screwdriver and a hammer may make some progress lol

I was wondering if anyone here knew of a phone that I could buy same day and activate on Mint Mobile with an eSIM under $200? I tried craigslist, and FB marketplace, but my area is crap and doesn't have any eSIM capable models for under $600. Context: I sent my Pixel 4XL in for RMA today, and it will be probably wednesday before I get a new phone back. I don't have a physical sim with Mint Mobile, and I would probably recieve my new phone around the same time as a physical sim if I ordered one. I need a phone for 2FA and for emergencies. Thank you for any help you can provide in the comments below

I'm an Arris fan https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MA5U1FW/ Don't buy the 6190 due the issues with the Intel PUMA chip.

And again All these new signups due to the migration must be hitting them hard

I found the free version it's buried https://www.easeus.com/partition-manager/epm-free.html

Just downloaded the software again and ran into the same issue. They must have changed their licencing model. It used to be freeware under X devices and their were some pro features

Are you over the device limit for the trial? I use it all the time and haven't bought a licence. Probably should now that I think of it. It's good software

That is normal

Try EaseUs it tends to work when windows is being weird https://www.easeus.com/partition-master/format-hard-drive-in-windows-10.html

Have you tried this https://www.howtogeek.com/171924/how-to-reset-your-web-browser-to-its-default-settings/

I would check/remove any proxy settings https://www.expressvpn.com/support/troubleshooting/google-chrome-no-proxy/ I would also try a custom DNS like 1.1.1.1 https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-your-pcs-dns-settings-windows-10

What software are you using to format the drive?

The R5 2600 doesn't have integrated graphics so the motherboard outputs will not work. Try putting in a different graphics card.

Unplug all usb devices, slowly add back to find the affected device
