Games Randomly Thinking I am Pressing 'A'/left Key?
Bogstench replied to Bogstench's topic in Troubleshooting
Possibly, no idea. I'll probably open it up if there's no solution someone else can provide me. Might I add, it only happens in specific games. Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is actually one of the games that it's happening all the time in... Even other games that include movement, it won't do this, with the controls being 'A' as well. -
Hello, I've been having this weird issue the past few days where my applications, specifically games, register me pressing 'A' or the '←' key very randomly. Once it happens I either have to mash '←' and '→' to fix the issue or just close and re-open the game. And in some cases, re-opening the game doesn't even fix it. Once it occurs, it will still persist even after unplugging my keyboard. In fact, it will occur so randomly, I haven't found how to replicate it or anything. I own a Corsair K70, and I have accidentally spilled a small amount of water into the opening under the space bar before, but this was nearly 7-8 months ago, and after a couple of days letting it dry, it worked completely fine again. Maybe this correlates to the issue I'm having now somehow? So, how would I go about fixing this? Do I need a new keyboard or something? I don't have a spare to troubleshoot this with, is it worth just buying a cheap $10-$20 one to see if it'd work fine? Thanks.

My 1TB HDD Isn't Showing Up In 'My Computer - Devices & Drives'?
Bogstench replied to Bogstench's topic in Storage Devices
It's completely brand new. I just told Windows 8.1 before it installed, to install it on my SSD. That's really all I've done. -
Recently after putting my PC together I'm not sure if my current temperatures at idle are proper or not for what I have. I have an i5-4670k with a Hyper 212 EVO. I used some IC Diamond instead of the stock paste that came with the product. I don't have my graphics card just yet so I can't do full-blown testing with heavy game loads or what else, but for the most part with a lighter game running off of integrated graphics at 1080p (27% CPU or so), it seems to be putting the cores up to around 35C-50C. Is this normal? I haven't overclocked or anything either so I feel it should be a bit cooler than this. Maybe I'm expecting too much? I feel I put enough paste down and that I installed the cooler properly, so I'm not really sure. Thanks in advance.

My 1TB HDD Isn't Showing Up In 'My Computer - Devices & Drives'?
Bogstench replied to Bogstench's topic in Storage Devices
Hah! That did it. Seemed so easy. Thanks so much :lol: ! -
Hi everyone. I've just finished putting together a new computer but for some reason my WD Blue 1TB isn't showing up, though, my 128GB SSD *is* showing up. Here's a snap I took to show you: But, in the Disk Manager it does show up like this: I would like to obviously store most of the stuff that's not specific games / programs and other files onto my 1TB. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm really new to this (owned a laptop until now). What do I do to get it to show up for use?
-
Yesss. Would love to have one! Streaming and using Photoshop on this thing would be glorious.
-
Yeah that PSU would be awesome to have, better than my current one D:

Will putting other files on a boot drive mess anything up?
Bogstench replied to Bogstench's topic in Operating Systems
Yeah thanks guys! Always helpful -
Recently I've been wanting to put Windows 8.1 on my laptop to replace the Window 7 Home Premium on it (I'm part of that small percentage that enjoys Win8.1 lol) but I only have one flash drive. I have the .iso file on it (and key written elsewhere) but would adding things I need to bring back on the machine like essential documents and what not onto the flash drive mess with anything (say like, corrupt the .iso or instillation somehow)? Sorry if I'm being stupid about this, I've never done this type of thing before. Only have installed an OS on a different PC with a fresh hard drive.

Well I wasn't specifically meaning just 4-way SLI but it was one of the larger points I was trying to make since it seemed the most obvious. Yeah though seems it has something to do with either games being rushed or inefficient rendering and what not.
-
yeah i suppose you're right lol, come to think of it that was a pretty dumb question for me to ask
