  1. sadly i cant my cable company has to do it. the box is locked up and cutting the cable would cost me. please refer to the video to see the issue. timestamps in description.
  2. ya see thats what i thought but i havent watched anything but cable because im not home normally enough but ill check settings
  3. I just bought this from Best buy a couple weeks ago and I'm experiencing picture problems while watching TV. I haven't watched YouTube or digital movies on it to experience flickering. the cable television that I watch comes from a coax out of the wall but the picture distorts and almost looks like it's either recalling frames or frames are being misaligned. I may have described it completely wrong but I'm currently working on filming it so I can cut it together and post it on YouTube.
  4. that was a question I asked when I first watched the video I just brought this video back up because I got my hands on a older gaming laptop that can play VR. the only problem is is without the power bank plugged in there's not enough power going to the headset to power it properly. the only reason I know this is that the preview of the game is buttery-smooth but the headset itself is very laggy. I ran through pretty much every option I can think of to what could be wrong and it's down to the laptop not putting out enough power through the USB port on battery.
  5. my plan was always to take a laptop and buy a power bank with a 24v plug out and have a laptop plugged in so it runs at full power for as long as the power bank stays charged. I have a Windows mixed reality headset and I could be completely untethered at that point. it may only work for about an hour or two but that's more than enough time to have complete freedom that I can take anywhere.
  6. I have check every partition and it gives me inaccessible. I got one last-ditch effort that I was going to try myself and that is to install Windows on the drive I'm trying to be the windows partition from my drive to that drive
  7. ive tried clonzilla bootable several times and macrium reflect with both usb into another pc
  8. i tried that but the boot record keeps getting messed up. i have been through three deferent programs
  9. I am trying to clean my 256gb SSD to a 500gb SSD as an upgrade. I have attempted to close several times and every single time I get boot device is not accessible. I have tried the bootrec commands and the /fixboot has the access denied. both of the hard drives are formatted in MBR and I have tried to fix the boot on the hard drive several times. when I would normally clone the system reserved partition would have a drive letter. I would get rid of the drive letter and then re letter the windows partition. I honestly don't know what I'm doing wrong with this point. if anybody can offer me some advice or maybe a really in-depth video on how to fix this problem I would really appreciate it.
  10. I've been using a program called parsec to stream from my gaming desktop to my craptop. (long story of why i do this) I switched up laptops from a laptop with AMD R5 graphics to a older business class laptop with a mxm Quadro card (5% weaker performance but dedicated is a smoother expierience). for some reason I can't get hardware acceleration to work. without hardware acceleration, the streaming is just not possible in-game it's got a hefty latency. I had trouble getting hardware acceleration to work on my first laptop because the drivers were out of date. but the drivers on this laptop our current from the Nvidia website. I don't even know if my graphics card supports hardware acceleration. every time I try to Google and include the term "hardware acceleration" , Google throws a conniption fit and starts giving me a whole bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with what I'm trying to find. TLDR I switched laptops and I can't get hardware acceleration to work in a app called parsec which streams games from one computer to another device.
  11. the processor speed also idols at 3.7 to 3.8ghz which is weird
  12. I have an update about this. I reset everything to stock in the processor is still getting 50c idle. I have a Corsair AIO which I know works because my previous board worked just fine. I have another AIO in a stock heatsink, I'll try both and see if the temps go down.
  13. I literally have no idea what this motherboard is somebody selling it on a local page of mine and I can't look at it for another couple of days. I want to have kind of an idea of what I'm getting into if I go to look at this computer. I know it's not the best picture but it's the only one that he has.
  14. But I normally would have fan control from the BIOS on a gigabyte board right? I've never owned a gigabyte board so I don't know how their bios is laid out.
  15. oh I'm dumb it is secondhand I just got it off of eBay I never restored the BIOS settings to default so I'm probably running his overclock settings.
  16. I bought a gigabyte b85m board because I wanted to oc with the multiplier since I don't have a k chip. Also my previous board only had 2 ram slots :,(. When I installed it the CPU idled at 45-52c and stays pegged at 3.68ghz. I opened up cinebench r20 and the CPU temps started slowly climbing. About a third of the way thru, the CPU was in the 90's and hit 100c. I had to shut off cinebench but I haven't had a chance to try it in games yet. Also the fan run really slow when at idle, even on my aio (I have the pump on CPU and fan on sys and always have). Anybody got any insight on steps I can take to not set my house on fire with this. Edit:my CPU never has done this before and I had oc'd 200mhz with the multiplier.
  17. I accidentally posted an article and troubleshooting about this so I want to elaborate on here and kind of repeat what I said over there. I was benchmarking my 4770 on cinebench R10 to see how it's stacked up with the processors made around the time of that software. That's sparked me into thinking what about the newer stuff. how do they perform on older cinebench? I wanna know. Is there some kind of database of this? Has somebody done this on YouTube already? And why not do house as well?
  18. But that doesn't answer for all the other CPUs. I want to know how others perform.
  19. I out of curiosity downloaded cinebench r10 to test my 4770 to compare it to the processors of the time. By doing this I come to wanting to know how newer processors perform going back in time with benchmarks. I'm basically wanting to know if there's a database out there that has this information. say friend since somebody took a i7 7700 k and accurately compared it to processors of an older generation using the software that they used at the time. Now I do understand this might not be possible in some instances. Nonetheless I am very curious but I don't have the means to test every CPU on every different software going back in time. And God only knows somebody took a i7 7700k or a GTX 1080 TI and ran it on 2005 software. Let alone 9th gen and the 20 cards.
  20. The same power supply runs the 1060 in the same computer.
  21. I got a 1060 to work in one of these. It picks and chooses which ones it wants to work with. Try finding a card that works and then see if a bios option pops up.
