  1. Thanks. I didn't find this particular list when I Googled (though I didn't look very hard before deciding to come here). That was my conclusion too, "I'll just have to cross my fingers and give it a shot." I'll wait a bit before marking this as solved just to see if anybody else has some forbidden esoteric insight into this particular situation.
  2. I'm working on turning an old system of mine into server, and I'd always heard that buying a used Xeon off eBay was a quick and easy way to get some extra performance out of an old motherboard. The motherboard in question is the Asus P8H61-M LE/CSM R2.0 Micro. For a while, I was planning on buying the E3-1230v2. When I checked eBay, though, I saw an E3-1275v2 for sale for a great price and sprung for that instead. I of course verified that it also used the same LGA1155 socket, which it does. However, today, when I went to update my PCPartPicker list for posterity, I noticed that it wouldn't let me select the E3-1275v2 without first disabling the compatibility filter. PCPartPicker says, Problem: Asus P8H61-M LE/CSM R2.0 Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard and Intel Xeon E3-1275 V2 3.5 GHz Quad-Core OEM/Tray Processor are not compatible. But provides no other insight as to why. After I saw this, I did a little bit of digging. Intel's site says that the 1275v2 uses the FCLGA1155 socket, but everything I could find (Tom's Hardware, Reddit) says that the FCLGA1155 and the LGA1155 are identical. On top of that, all the looking I did tells me that there are no special requirements for running a Xeon processor, and that as long as you have the correct socket it should work fine. Intel's site makes no mention whatsoever of any chipset limitations, either. Is there something I missed? Is it maybe because the motherboard doesn't support ECC memory? My best hope is that PCPartPicker is simply missing compatibity information for this CPU/motherboard... I've already bought the processor
  3. Yup, I've got the same situation but older... My USB 3.0 ports on my case are disabled cuz my mobo doesn't support it. Think that's what she's got but w/ the Type-C. I'll make sure she knows
  4. We were just trying to straight up identify it, nothing more. Thank you!
  5. I don't have anything higher than USB 2.0 on *my* motherboard... this is my friend's photo. No wonder I haven't seen it before! My stuff is too old
  6. Bit of a silly question but... I've been out of the PC building scene for a couple years and offered to help identify a cable for a friend... I was immediately stumped. Even if it isn't directly related to the CPU and Motherboard, I wasn't sure which other category to put it under... It's definitely an internal, PC building cable, though. Thanks in advance
  7. No matter how many times I set and unset Visual Studio 2019 as my default program for .sln files, it still uses the icon from Visual Studio C# 2010 Express. I use 2010 Express when marking for a course to ensure that my version of VS is the same as what the students use, just in case, but VS 2019 for my own use. This pictures shows what I mean. You can see that, circled (or, boxed, I guess?), .suo files have behaved normally since installing VS 2019. I've tried clearing my IconCache, but to no avail.
  8. So uhh.... I switched back into Normal Startup (everything in selective is enabled, as is everything in the Services tab) and... It's fixed itself now? This makes it pretty hard to diagnose what was causing it ? If it comes back I'll resume from this post and update you farther. ??
  9. Ok I'll let you know how this goes... Looks to be that the line is gone once I disable all startup programs and run it in diagnostic startup... Now, to figure out which program is causing it... ? @Tabs: I re-enabled all of my startup programs, and I still don't see the issue. Therefore it must not be being caused by any of these programs. It must be something in that "System Services" box. Note, when I selected Diagnostic startup, it automatically jumped down to Selective Startup, just with some stuff disabled.
  10. Seems to be gone on Spotify, but Chrome is still having the issue. I'm also not sure if Spotify being fixed is temporary -- it started much later than Chrome so I wouldn't be surprised if this whole thing was generally inconsistent.
  11. Recently, I've started to see an annoying line across the top of my window when I have my program maximized. It happens in Chrome with a blue line, and in Spotify with a white line. Look along the top edge here: Same goes for Spotify, although only along the top of the window: Note that this doesn't happen when I don't have the window in focus: I've got NVIDIA GeForce Driver 397.93. As of July 6th, 2018, 2:05 PM, Windows Update says I'm up to date. Chrome is up to date -- Version 67.0.3396.99 (Official Build) (64-bit). Has anyone seen this issue before? Any tips as to what I should try next? It's been bugging me for about a month now. Thanks.
  12. Title says most of it. When I have chrome full screened, it has a line of pixels along the top edge of the screen. This only happens on my 4K laptop, not my 1080p desktop monitor. The colour is the same as my windows theme, so I assume it's the border that's normally put around non-maximized windows. Why, however, it's displaying when I have it maximized, I don't know. See example: It does not happen when the window is not focused:
  13. Huh. It seems that by telling it to auto-repeat the headers it's just automatically moving it down to the next page where it fits. Same way it would for a picture. Nice!
  14. When I'm done the document I will be 100% making sure it's on one page. Also, I'm not even sure how to repeat the header on a new page. Care to educate me? Is it done manually or is there a tick-box I'm missing?
  15. Title says it all, mostly. These screenshots will explain better: What it should look like: What it looks like over the page break: Notice how the speed and displacement are absent in the second picture? Yeah. That's the issue. They're still there, but I just can't see them. They don't show up in print preview either. I know they're still there because I can copy/cut and paste them out of the table, but as soon as a) I put them back in the table and b) they go over the page break, they vanish. And it's not like they're all in one equation object: each line is its own. It only happens to the ones that are above the break. If I move the whole thing down two lines, they all appear, but then I have a large space at the end of my first page. I'd prefer not to just stick a page-break (ctrl+enter) in there, since that would shift things largely if I was to change text above the break. Even if nobody knows how to fix it without a workaround, I'd like to at least know what causes is. Thanks.
  16. Yup!! I changed Google Chrome's display language to English (Canada) and now both color/colour check/cheque are accepted as correct. Thank you!!
  17. It's Facebook Messenger running through Google Chrome. I'll check my Chrome's settings...
  18. If you're honestly wondering (probably not, but why not overshare), I personally use a mixture of the two 'languages' (as well as saying things like 'zee' fairly frequently). Which is pretty ironic, considering that I'm complaining about it. I use an 's' in surprised, but a 'z' in magazine, etc. It's weird. I just go with the flow. Going for a Computer Science degree certainly hasn't helped with the whole color vs. colour thing, though. I've been known to do this: Heresy.
  19. True, there are only so many differently-spelled words... If I don't see any other solutions posted that's what I'll do. Obviously I'd still prefer it if it was in maple syrup mode instead of bald eagle mode.
  20. So I live in Canada and I speak English. I am fairly decent at Français as well but certainly not 100% fluent. Anyway, I noticed while typing in messenger that despite having my languages panel in settings set accordingly, I was seeing red lines under my correctly spelled words. See fig.1: So why is this? As you can see, I don't have English (US) in my languages panel anywhere: I have the keyboard layout "US" selected, but that's just the name of the layout, which is the placement of the keys, isn't it? Can anyone tell me how I can get my red-colored lines to become red-coloured lines? Merci
  21. Uhhh sooooo.... This was weird. Basically after booting into safe mode, I tried to install motherboard drivers. I was told by windows that the installer doesn’t work in safe mode. Sooo, I rebooted.... into windows... just fine.... with no issues. And now it’s working fine. Don’t ask me how that worked. Probably just needed a low level windows to get used to the new CMOS/RAM settings or some jargon that I barely understand at this point in my learning of computers.
