  1. Ok so this is what the BIOS currently looks like: > #1 (MIT Tab - BIOS) Advanced Frequency Settings Tab: > #2 (MIT Tab - BIOS) Advanced Memory Settings Tab: Sorry for crappy picture quality by the way Just took a quick pic on My iPhone lol So, what do I do next?
  2. Hey everyone, So I discovered out that I'm a bit of a idiot for not realising this mistake until last week (Just kidding). Anyways.., the issue is I have is the RAM Speed. But before I explain the primary issue a little bit more in-depth, here's the PC-Specs: Ok so, My Corsair RAM is actually meant to be 3000MHz but for god knows how long..., it's been stuck at 2133MHz on all 4 Sticks in all 4 slots which is why I said I'm an idiot for not realising this until recently. This image below by the way can verify that. It shows exactly the 2133MHz speed as mentioned, in task manager: I updated to the most recent BIOS last week (or week before, can't remember) from the motherboard page/section on GIGABYTE's website (https://www.gigabyte.com/uk/Motherboard/GA-AX370-Gaming-K5-rev-1x/support#support-dl-bios) and selected "Profile1" which I thought would've got Me the 3000MHz Speed across the 4x8GB Sticks but... apparently not. Task manager for whatever reason decides to show Me this every single time, currently: It shows "Hardware reserved: 0.0 PB" every time? What the heck does that even mean..... lmao Oh and by the way, I also checked the RAM Speeds via CMD-Prompt with a command that I found online and it still shows the same result(s) for the 4x8GB Sticks: (Name blanked out for obvious reasons -^) So.... does anyone know how to fix this issue very easily and get Me (4x)3000MHz for 4x8GB Sticks? Please? Also, please note this: I AM NOT A FAN OF OVERCLOCKING (IF REQUIRED) AND HAVE ZERO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT IT. I was hoping I could just click Profile1 which GIGABYTE had made(?) in the BIOS and BAM!, I get the 3000MHz per stick but nope :c So yeah, if anyone could help Me out, that would be great! Thanks -Xiauj Also I couldn't help but realize that I'm posting this on New Year's Eve so I hope everyone has had a great 2019! See You in 2020! ?

  5. Soo... it's 5:52AM here in the UK as I'm writing this (I like to stay up extra late sometimes.. okay.... :D) and because I have nothing to do for the next few days and because I've completed all of My Christmas shopping and all that fun stuff, I decided to finally sit down, relax and continue binge-watching the rest of The Office US (Seasons 1-9) for the second time and man, I forgot how emotional it really gets towards the end ? Holy fuck I love watching The Office US. EASILYYYYY one of the best series that has ever been made without a doubt IMHO ❤️

    And there's also another reason for writing this status-update. Which is to say Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays to all! ❤️ ? Because I'm gonna be away from the forum over the next couple weeks as most people normally will be doing until 31st Dec 2019, soooooo.... I guess I'll see You all in the new year!!

    @Pascal... Yeah I've got a rough idea on how to go about it, not gonna get it done this year though. It will be next year probably.
  7. GAHHHHH. I really hate My inner-self so much, at the best of times xD. I ordered some stuff from AliExpress last week and I was constantly hovering over the Checkout button because I just wanted to place the order so freaking badly and soo... I did as You can probably tell. Lol. Anyway.... the reason I hate My inner-self in a jokingly funny way is because, I wish I waited until next week (Mon-16thDEC>Sun22thDEC) to buy the items with the 7-8 Day shipping option which yes I know would have costed Me a bit more but would have been much better than the normal 20-40 Day shipping option which AliExpress grants (for free) for a large majority of items I'm pretty sure :(. I have nobody else to blame but Myself for being impatient dammit xD. It says the order has shipped now and I dunno if I could change it right now because of AliExpress' VERY infuriating customer service(s). Aka... they have no live-chat which IMHO is the easier way in most scenarios.

  10. Are there any home-theatre type people on the forum who could help Me out? If so... I need a second opinion on something and don't really know if I should be discussing it publicly so please message Me :) It's do with My BluRay setup that I have going on.

    @Pascal... You'll have to wait and see Idk if I'll post here, probably on the Discord.
  12. It's a good thing I'm not spending anything today on Black Friday of 2019 (...as boring as that sounds) because there isn't anything that's really stuck out IMHO. And also, it appears that the bank I use over here in the UK / United Kingdom has gone down in terms of their website and mobile app. My mother is moaning out loud because of it and I'm just here like..... what do You expect Me to do exactly?? LMAO smh xD

     

     

    On a side note.... I have a ton of Keyboard Switches arriving today hopefully!!! 

    So I guess that's My Black-Friday 'gift' because I didn't buy anything...? ? /s

      Replacing the switches or are you building your own Keyboard ?

  15. Finally, Windows has finished updating after... 3(?) ish hours later xD. Can confirm that it didn't manage to fuck up lol. RIP Windows 7, You will be missed :C

      In the future you may find this to be less of an issue.  Windows 10 has a feature where it can use an external drive or flash drive to assist in cases where there is not enough free space on C to perform an update in place.  There is still a minimum space requirement but it can help quite a bit.

  16. Alright so... I've just used Minitool Partition Wizard (Software recommendation) and it seems to have worked :D And now... I'm currently upgrading over to Windows 10 via the ISO from Microsoft's website lol.

     

    I'm gonna miss Windows 7 after this is done / having used it for many years whilst I was in school / college etc... :( Why did Microsoft stop giving updates for it, damn it. Oh well.

  17. @Ryan_Vickers & @Levent, Alright so... I've just used Minitool Partition Wizard and it seems to have worked I just allocated roughly 10GB to (C:) from (G:) and I'm currently upgrading over to Windows 10 via the ISO from Microsoft's website lol. Thanks again guys! I appreciate it! I'm gonna miss Windows 7 after this is done Why did Microsoft stop giving updates for it, damn it. Oh well.
  18. Ah I see. Would the one that Levent kindly suggested be able to solve this, do You think?: @Levent Any idea/input as to if this could work?
  19. Ok I've just remerged the 10GB I took from the (G:) Drive and re-added it back to the (G:) Drive. Is there any other ways to "move" the (G:) Drive and take the aforementioned 10GB from that and add that to the (C:) Drive within Windows besides doing via Ubuntu? Or am I pretty much screwed? It's not because I don't have much Linux knowledge (Which actually I don't, still kinda learning it) or anything like that but I also don't have a spare low capacity USB-Drive for the Linux distro =/
  20. What is that and how does that work? I'm completely clueless, haha. Ok now I'm really confused ? So wait, install/fire... what up onto a USB-Drive? I'm confused. I thought You meant Linux for a second there Ryan but I dunno, lol. If You mean moving to Linux, I dunno if that's an option or not because I'd lose all My already-installed applications, wouldn't I? And Idk if they'd even work. Things like Adobe programs, CINEMA 4D, some other editing applications, VLC and a few others. I DO NOT want to lose them what so ever!

      Is there any reason why you only have a single drive for everything? You really should back your stuff up when messing with Windows, especially when you are switching from 7 to 10.

       

      As for the problem, I've never used it but I've heard good things about gparted, give that a shot. Seems like Ryan_Vickers will be able to help you with it.

  23. Hey everyone! I need help urgently! I'm trying to figure what the hell I did when I made this system MANY YEARS AGO..... lol. So TLDR: I'm trying to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 (Because Microsoft is stopping system updates etc., in January 2020) via the ISO I downloaded from Microsoft's Website and, in this system, there's one 1TB Western Digital Hard Drive which is split into 3x sections as shown below: I don't know how / can't remember why this is split into 3x sections but just now, I shrinked 10GB out of the (G:) Drive and for some reason, I can't put the 9.77GB unallocated space I just took from (G:) into the (C:) Drive. The "Extend Volume..." option is greyed out when I right click the (C:) Drive. The 9.77GB I took from (G:) HAS TO GO INTO THE (C:) Drive in particular so that I have enough free space (8GB or more) to let the Windows 10 ISO do its magic (aka upgrade the OS to Windows 10). There's only 5~ ish GB free which is why I'm doing taking some capacity from the (G:) Drive, lol. Soo..... any advice on what to do? I just cannot figure out why the option is greyed out, it makes zero sense... and like I said, there's only one 1TB Western Digital Hard Drive Please and Thanks! ~Xiauj
