Hi and TIA. I built my computer in Oct 2018 and haven't made any modifications since. I was writing an essay this evening when I got a BSOD. It said DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and that the driver that failed was amdkmdag.sys. The BSOD was stuck on 95% for a few minutes so I forced a shutdown to try to restart. It did not restart. When I try to power it, my fans spin and lights turn on, but my keyboard lights don't turn on, there is no output from GPU or mobo graphics. I also have the windows startup sound enabled for troubleshooting reasons like this, and it is not playing. I tried power cycling it with unplugging the PSU to no avail. Please let me know what I can do. Thanks

You're right lol, i wasn't really paying attention im sorry.

Yes this will be an auxiliary pc. do you have any recommendations for mobo? I didn't realize that. what about this corsair psu https://pcpartpicker.com/product/3hkwrH/corsair-power-supply-cp9020102na ? thanks

@Shrekpad's build is good but i would add a boot ssd, you can get a generic m.2 ssd from microcenter for cheap. I have a 128gb one and it works great but i would HIGHLY recommend a 256gb one https://www.microcenter.com/product/600419/inland-premium-256gb-ssd-3d-nand-m2-2280-pcie-nvme-30-x4-internal-solid-state-drive

Hi, My friend gave me a few components a while ago so I figured I'd build a PC for my woodshop. I'd probably use it for drafting plans and CAD because I have fusion 360. Please that a look at the list and tell me what you think.

Hi all, I hope everyone is well and staying safe, This drive (F:) was a windows 10 installer made with the Microsoft software. I formatted it and was left with 2 volumes, 29GB unallocated and 25GB of the windows installer (or something like that, I don't remember). I deleted the 25GB volume with the intention of combining the two unallocated and creating 1 volume. I am now left with all this unallocated space and the "New Simple Volume" button that I planned on pressing does nothing (neither does "properties"). If anyone knows how to fix this please let me know because this was my favorite USB drive (It's got USB-C on 1 end and USB-A on the other). Thank you and stay safe, itchkowb

Due to the rise of Off-Site learning and the hysteria attributed to the pandemic, I need a webcam for school. If anyone has any ideas/suggestions or knows the right place to point me, please reply. Thank you

I agree with @Slottr, add intake fans

I'm building a test bench around some parts that my friend is giving me. Is there any way that I can make it less expensive?

thank you so much!

This has been solved

You should be fine with the PSU, i'd still use it. And it really depends on the 1070ti, the 1060ti is a great card, so you should be ok, i think
