  1. Turning off fast startup has solved my issues.
  2. Bought the 212 evo in the summer. I want to say it's not temps. But i will do further testing this weekend. Thank you for your recommendation.
  3. Operating System Windows 10 Note: Could be coincidence but all these shut down's came after Fall Creators Update. Computer Specs (PSU, GPU, CPU, RAM, Motherboard) AMD A10-7850k CPU, Hyper 212 Evo Cooler8gb ddr3 1600mhz crucial ram Asus A88XM-plus Motherboard GTX 1050 Ti Evga 500b1 PSU A cheap 400w Sparkle PSU 1TB Western Digital Blue HDD Description of problem My computer has been randomly shutting off recently. So far it has shut off about 9 times while browsing the internet and only 1 time while playing League of Legends. It has not shut off while idle yet. When it shuts off it is a complete loss of power, no warnings at all. No lag just 1 second there is power the next, nothing. After about 5 seconds of being off the PC turns back on as if nothing ever happened. No warnings of power loss, nothing. When this issue began 2-3 weeks ago Recurring issue Yes Date of purchase Parts are all from different dates. Under Warranty No Cause/Steps to recreate the issue Just daily usage of my computer, I've tried stress tests and they haven't caused it yet. (Although I only ran them for an hour or so)It also seems that relatively low power situations are when it shuts off What I've tried so far to resolve the issue Almost everything, while using my EVGA 500w B1 I unplugged everything from the mobo, etc. and plugged it back in. I changed my power bar, the outlet I was using. A whole different outlet on the other side of my desk. I've tried driver updates. Just last night I found my old cheap 400w sparkle power supply, so I swapped it in, as well as cleaning some dust off fans etc. I reseated the graphics card, unplugged and replugged in SATA to HDD. Even after this the problem still persists. As far as CPU temperatures go, APU's have weird readings, and typically read way off in software. But bios shows about 35c-ish when I enter it after the random power loss. I'm lost. I thought maybe the power reset plug was the problem, nope it wasn't it either.
  4. Will look into it, problem is she's pushing up their in age and she uses her laptop fine, but finds it hard to adapt to newer tech. I will see how she feels about it. Thank you.
  5. Don't know how I thought the USB would go in the TV. My bad.
  6. So my Grandma has a 2010ish laptop with a single vga for video output. She wants to watch her british shows on her tv instead of on her laptop but the tv she has doesn't have a vga port. Instead it has 2 HDMI's. So i was thinking i could grab a long vga, and get an adaptor to hdmi. I think i found a setup that will work, but need more opinions before i order. The links below are the items i think will be necessary. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B014I8TC4E/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&psc=1 https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00K4WCE9O/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?smid=A14L9DIA3NK9B0&psc=1 Would this carry audio + video well from the laptop to the tv? Is there a better solution. Please let me know! Also would the usb in the tv power the adapter just fine?
  7. To confirm, i meant both were used. My bad. Thanks for all the conversation and points guys. I'm leaning towards the S7, i still really want the dual cameras though.
  8. Plain and simple, give me your thoughts. I'm looking at buying either. I've watched pros and cons for both, but need an opinion from a community. Things i want to know about, durability, real world performance, signal reliability Big question for me is IF, or WHEN android O will come to these phones. How has your experience been? Just want some thoughts.
