  1. Hello! I used to have a plex server running years ago. I'm finally coming back but for some reason, I can't get the setup wizard for my server to load. Whenever I click "My Media" there is no setup windows like there used to be for my server where I can manage it all? I'm sure there used to be a GUI for the server? Whenever I click on My Media, it just sends me to download plex server, which i already have installed. Everything is up to date. I've tried to reinstall. I've tried deleting everything from local app data. I cannot see how to set up a server anywhere without the wizard. and cannot seem to get the wizard to launch no matter how much uninstall and reinstall i try. Any ideas?
  2. PSU was second hand before I got it. Its had a LOT of use. Every day, 6+ hours a day. Some less, some more. So that's why I'm leaning towards it being a PSU issue. Yes, 3 HDD. Should be able to see that in the HWINFO data.
  3. I've stated them. 8700k EVGA 1070 Hybrid Corsair ax 760i PSU LPX ddr4 16gb Tomahawk Motherboard. Various HDD's, An SSD and an NVME. Parts havent changed in years. Never had an issue.
  4. Update: I've ran both Furmark and Prime 95, not an issue. It's completley random. The PC can be idle and it will shut off. Or it can be under a full load. Or, either can be completley fine.
  5. The reason I am thinking PSU is it was already second hand when I got it. And that was 7 years ago. If it was software, I would see something somewhere. but its not even a blue screen, it's like it's a thermal shutdown or PSU overload.
  6. 8700k. 1070Hybrid Corsair 16gb ddr4. Msi Tomahawk motherboard. I've done a memtest. Everything checks out.
  7. It doesn't make a difference. It's not been an issue for the past 5 years....
  8. Everything at stock. XMP is on and has been for the past 5 years.
  9. Im not comfortable enough to repaste the GPU. But the temps never get above 50. Usually. Again, with the data, nothing is reading as high. Even remotley.
  10. Had the same pc for about 7 years now. Same GPU for about 5. Nothing like this before. So it's not like anything has changed recently to warrant that troubleshooting step I would have thought. 8700k, 1070 Hybrid. I have tried a different power cable too, same issue.
  11. I remember in the past having CPU thermal shutdowns. (not on this PC) Where if the CPU exceeded the max limit, just, instant off. I'm having more and more frequent similar shutdown or restarts (the PC will restart itself) Where everything just, instantly turns off like I unplugged the power cable. I have logged one of these shutdowns using HWinfo and NOTHING is exceeding temperatures. CPU, GPU, Motherboard, all voltages seem fine on the motherboard, nothing is an outlier in the data (Provided) My only conclusion now is that it is a Power Supply Shutdown. Does that mean time for a new one? Edit: Update. Update: I've ran both Furmark and Prime 95, not an issue. It's completley random. The PC can be idle and it will shut off. Or it can be under a full load. Or, either can be completley fine. I have also checked event viewer, and it seems almost everytime it does this, 10016 logged. and also 6155. Update 2: I have removed the filters to the PSU. I think it may have been starved of air and shutting down. pc logging.CSV
  12. Hello everyone. i was wondering if anyone had any idea if the exclusive content will stay up after LTX is done? Can't get a digital pass this week but plan to next time payday comes around. Thanks.
  13. I remember asking Linus a long time ago if they needed help and was told to wait! I'm a big boy, (over 450+ lbs) and usually wear 6xl tshirts. So glad this came around! I submitted the form using a different email to my forum account (So I won't miss it!) I have bought LTT shirts in the past and unfortunatley have never been able to actually wear them. Hope to help! and actually be able to rep LTT! I am currently only able to buy shirts that fit from one retailer in the UK (Bad Rhino) And have often found them to be decent, if not lacking in style, they're usually plain. It would be nice just to have the opportunity to even buy something with a bit more, style. The "ebay" shirts I have usually fall apart after a couple months, so I'm also looking for some quality too. Happy to take whatever photos you need and will be able to reply in detail about the fit. It's something that is actually an ongoing concern for me and has been for a number of years.
  14. Summary A public swimming pool is being heated by a small data centre in the UK. It's about the size of a washing machine and can provide the pool with temperatures up to 30c. Quotes My thoughts What I find interesting here is the fact it's submerged in mineral oil. It doesn't leave much room for troubleshooting, but I find it a little interesting that LMG have been speaking about heating pools with computers, and also the recent discussion on a new submerged system. I wonder if this could be scaled at all. Sources BBC News - Tiny data centre used to heat public swimming pool https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-64939558
