New (larger) HDD doesn't work in old WD external HDD enclosure
jvkeizer replied to jvkeizer's topic in Troubleshooting
What do you mean by a bigger drive? The drive that it used to run was 3.5", just like the one I'm trying to run now. Also, it is conencted to a 12V 1.5A adapter, which should be plenty of power I think? Anyways, I've ordered a new encasing so I hope that'll solve the issue. -
So I used to have a Western Digital WD Elements 1 TB USB 2.0 that I have dissassembled a few years ago to put the actual drive in my pc. I kept the piece of pcb that has the SATA, 12v power and mini-usb connections to use as an external drive reader. It has always worked fine for me with 250GB tot 1TB drives, however, now I am trying to use it with a new 2TB Seagate Barracude HDD and it doesn't work properly. I managed to get it to connect once and partitioned the drive, but after removing and trying numerous times on different computers, Windows doesn't detect that I insert a usb device, nor does the drive start spinning when I connect it. The little indicator LED is blinking, so there is power and when I switch to another 500GB drive that one works fine. Hooking up the 2TB drive to my PC internally through sata works fine as well, it's formatted as I left it. Does anyone have any idea what causes this problem and whether I can fix it? Is the pcb from my old external HDD limited to 1TB or something? Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Okay so this has me driving nuts and this issue doesn't show up on Google. Ever since my last Windows update (v. 1803) the colors atacched to the different calendars from different accounts keep automatically changing. So if you take a look at my attachment, you'll see that the bottom calendar is blue and the one above is green. For months I've had it the other way around - the way I want it to be - but ever since the last windows update it keeps going back to this. Possibly relevant information: The calendars that keep switching colour are both exchange accounts from the same University The colours from the two gmail calendars never changed I have my Microsoft account linked as well but both calendars are disabled in the Win10 calendar app (like the contacts on my gmail account) When I manually put the colors back to the way I like them, they revert back to what they're like in the screenshot after closing the calendar app and reopening it or after a reboot. If anyone knows what to do and can help me out that would be greatly appreciated.

PC acting normally, then freezing after couple weeks
jvkeizer replied to jvkeizer's topic in Troubleshooting
Thanks, I checked my BIOS and xmp was on, but at 1600mhz. I googled a bit and found that my ram does have problems with reaching that so I disabled XMP and now it's running at the default 1333mhz. Hope it helps, I guess I'll update if my PC starts freezing again (just reinstalled Windows again today) -
Hi everyone, I've been Googling this problem but I cannot find any answers anywhere A few months ago, my PC (specs below) has been freezing on me. What happens is that after a seemingly random amount of uptime (it can be a couple of minutes or up to two hours), my pc would freeze. I could still move the mouse around and navigate through applications and menus but couldn't start any new applications or even turn off my pc normally (I could click shutdown but nothing happened). Then after a few more minutes it would just completely freeze and I would have to turn it off forcefully. I decided to reinstall Windows 10 and that seemed to fix the issues. Until after a couple weeks it started happening again. I reinstalled Windows 10 three or four times already and the same keeps happening; works fine for a couple weeks and then just starts freezing on me again. I already checked my components as far as I could (I don't have a lot of other hardware to troubleshoot with) and everything seems to be working normally. My thoughts are that maybe it could be my SSD as that's the only thing that changes over the weeks as it gets filled with more data. Maybe there's a certain threshold of data that my SSD can handle and starts failing after there's more data on it? Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated as I do not know what I can do to fix this. Thanks in advance!

So just like the title says, since a week or so, my pc has been freezing on me every single time it cold boots. It works fine for a couple of minutes and then after a while the screen turns black. I was on ts a couple times it happened and my mates could hear me a few seconds after the screen turning black and then they couldn't hear me anymore. But whenever I had music playing, it would just continue. Also whenever I press caps lock on my keyboard, the light doesn't turn on or off so something is freezing for sure, apart from the screen going black. So I just hit my reset button when this happens and after that I can use my PC just fine for hours and nothing happens. Already ran malwarebytes and avast and they didn't find anything. I'm thinking it might be hardware but I got no idea which component, any thoughts? P.s. I also have an issue where sometimes (like once every hour or so) I get no audio for a second or two on my pc, don't know if it's related though These are my components: Zalman Z11 Plus Intel Core i5-3470 (with stock cooler, not a lot of possibilities for overclocking anyway) XFX R9 280X Double Dissipation 8GB (2x4GB) Corsair Vengeance 1600MHz red Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3P 240GB Crucial M500 1TB Seagate Barracuda 320GB Seagate OEM HDD NZXT Hue Corsair CX430

jvkeizer replied to Daniel91's topic in New Builds and Planning
Yeah I agree, add a well-priced SSD and 2x4GB DDR3 and you should have a solid gaming PC -

9/10 very balanced high-end set-up no 10/10 because nothing special but really good setup nonetheless. Oh btw, for anyone rating mine, I'm a poor 16 year old so keep that in mind

Why do people even have to care about whether people are gay or not? It's not like you'll get a chance to become his boyfriend or something like that.
