    When booting into the OS, screens may randomly display weird graphical glitches. The color and amount varies, but it usually goes away after a few minutes. I have tried to re-install the latest GPU drivers for both operating systems (I'm dualbooting) to no avail. I have also tried adjusting the DisplayPort cables that are connected to the screens. Is this a sign that the GPU is dying? The GPU is a MSI GTX 1080 from 2017-18.

    Just posting this here if anyone (myself included) in the future has this problem. I ran this command: mdadm --assemble --verbose /dev/md0 /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd --update=devicesize Found here: https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php?thread/25012-missing-raid/ And I almost fell out of my chair as the array became alive again. It would not mount properly tho because it said it needed to be cleaned, so I ran this command: sudo e2fsck /dev/md0 -y Found here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/910078/structure-needs-cleaning-error-cannot-mount-partition And it's now okay again.

    Hi. After a restart yesterday my system would not boot and went into Emergency Mode, so I had to clear my /etc/fstab to be able to boot again as there was a problem with the mounting of the RAID-10 disk. After that I checked the Disks application and could not even manually mount the disk. I have tried to fix this issue for a good while now but I'm not tech-savvy enough to find the solution since I'm a Linux n00b. Any help is very much appreciated. I'm adding a screenshot from the Disks application in Pop!_OS and from the terminal where I checked the disk with mdadm. The state looks funky here:

    I have re-seated the card and testing it now. Seems better right away.

    Hi, I recently bought a second-hand GTX 1070 and put it to use. The card seems to work fine but when the card is under small load the fans start revving up and won't stop / go back down when the load is gone. I have checked the temperatures on the card with different software and it's just around on a cool 35-40 degrees Celsius under these loads. I have tried to use different fan-profiles for the card but it just doesn't care about any of them and starts to spin like crazy anyways. I have noticed that none of the software I have tested is able to show me the RPM of the fans, so I'm not sure if the card is defunct or if it's something else. The card is running the latest NVIDIA drivers. Any help is much appreciated.

    Hello, I currently have a server that is running four disks in RAID 10 on a RAID card. The server is running Windows Server 2016. I am soon going to transfer the files over to a new machine that is running better hardware but would really like to keep all of my data as it currently sits so that I wouldn't need to essentially set up the OS and programs/file structures and that whole jazz again manually. I have the possibility to take backups from my server with the built-in software in the Server Manager, but I have never tested it out and I'm not sure if that will even work as I think it will. Please ask me for more info if necessary. I appreciate all the help. My question is as following; Is there an easy way for me to transfer my setup over to the new machine like I was just moving the disks over (don't worry I am not going to just do that) and keep my things exactly as it currently is without needing to set it all up again. Thanks!

    Hello. TLDR: My PC boots into grub and I have problems booting it into Windows again. Sooo....some time ago I ran Debian but later switched over to Windows again and thought I formatted the drives. So anyways, I wanted to use Hyper-V on my Windows 10 machine today and went into the bios to turn on Intel Virtualization Technology and rebooted. The PC then booted into grub, weird. I checked the boot options and I could no longer see the Windows boot option and tried to turn off the Virtualization option to see if I then could boot to Windows again, but the PC still booted into grub. I have tried to boot from every disk now and reset my bios but still can't seem to get the darn thing to boot into Windows. Anyone had this happen to them before or think they could help me to boot to Windows again?

    Came from a portable HDD. Listed in device manager as a Seagate BUP Slim BK SCSI Disk Device. Should be NTFS.

    Bumping this thread. I tried Recuva and testdisk but they did not find any partitions after scanning the whole shabang.

    Thank you. Will try these.

    Hello. Anyone know of any data recovery software that is completely free to use and has no limitations? I have a RAW disk that I would like to get some data out of but a 2GB export won't be enough.

    Factory reset my whole PC. Seems to work now.

    Hi, I am having a problem with my two recently purchased monitors. Shadows are blocky and squared looking, not "smooth". See picture for reference. The picture is of a HTML file I made that consists of a black box with blue shadows around it. These shadows are supposed to be "smooth" and not blocky like it is shown here. I have tested this file with my work monitors and I do not have the same problem there. The monitors that have the problem are the following: MSI Optix 24" LED Curved MAG241CR OS: Windows 10. System specs: Cooler: NZXT Kraken X52SSD: Samsung 960 EVO 250GBHDD: WD Desktop Black 2TB 3.5Power supply: Corsair RM850x 850W Processor: Intel Core i7-8700K @ 4.7GHzMotherboard: ASUS MAXIMUS X FORMULAGraphics Card: MSI GeForce GTX 1080 Gaming XMemory: 16 GB of G.Skill Trident Z RGB DDR4 @ 3200MHz
