    You can try to clear CMOS but the drive may be configured as IDE as mentioned so may not help. A backup drive is always useful especially if your dad use the PC for work.

    Ok good. The picture below looks like your dads board right? The drive is connected to the port marked with the arrow? Can you find these settings in the BIOS? Can you also find SATA mode and make sure it is set to AHCI and not RAID? If the drives is connected to the one I marked and settings are correct (all sata devices and AHCI) then I think Beerzerker listed the rest of your options if the drive can only be seen as IDE by the operating system.

    Has it been inizialized? Can you post a screenshot of your disk management window?
  4. aDoomGuy
    Yes, it should. OS is Windows 10 I presume? What motherboard is that? Did you try to clear CMOS as described in the manual and is the drive in question connected to SATA_1?

    Hey, no worries! Glad to be of assistance. Well these things can happen, usually when there is a problem with display it's due to the driver. Some files could have gotten corrupt or overwritten due to an update, to mention possible reasons. I do that procedure once or twice a year even if I don't have any issue to get a fresh driver install. It only takes 5 minutes right and it's better than getting issues with drivers and I like my clean installs lol. Thank you!

    Yeah I don't think EVGA cares the slightest about 1 less shipped item. This one is on you.

    Try removing driver with this. https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html Recommended procedure: Download latest driver from Nvidia Disconnect completely from internet Reboot into safe mode Remove the Nvidia driver using the tool Reboot into normal desktop Install latest driver Reconnect internet

    Been there, tried that. Can you list all the partitions on the drive with a small description of what's on them? Is it possible to move the drive to another computer? I don't think you'll be able to simply relocate the Windows install but you may be able to install Windoiws and keep your files or just move the files and then install Windows.

    Hey, there is also the actual "X" in the name. Carry on.

    Roborock S7 MaxV Plus, cost a pretty penny. Since I named the old one T-800, it's only fitting I named the new one T-1000 right? Since it is after all a much more effective cleaning machine.

    Try resetting the device?
  12. aDoomGuy
    Meh.. I have no need for apps that don't get maintained.

    What I heard from Asus in some video I saw is that different motherboards may have different topology. There are as far as I know T-topology and daisy chain. But don't listen to a dumbo like me. Buildzoid explains it much better.

    When you reply to posts in your own threads it is wise to either quote or mention the user you reply to so they get notifications. You can do like this @aDoomGuy. Valorant, Fortnite, COD etc are all not very well optimized and a lot of users are complaining about low FPS, stuttering, frame rate drops etc when playing these games. Have you monitored your temps though? Get MSI Afterburner and enable OSD to see temps while you game. Your CPU will throttle if it reach 100°C for example. So monitor that as well as your GPU temp for a bit in-game. https://www.msi.com/Landing/afterburner/graphics-cards

    Ugh... User benchmark... Is useless. Do not use ever. Now with that out of the way... First, please list all your PC components and what games you try to play.

    If the fan refuse to go lower than I don't think a fan hub will make a difference. Unless you are out of fan headers and have to use a pump header and cant set it to run fan properly. A low noise adapter will, given that the fan actually will spin at less than 60%. However I suspect that it just isn't calibrated. I think 60% is the default setting for uncalibrated fans so that all fans will spin without having to go to BIOS first.
  17. aDoomGuy
    If you went into Q-fan and calibrated the fans and you still cant put it below 60% then it may be that the fan wont allow any lower. In that case you need low noise adapter.

    RAM should work but XMP may not. You may still get it to run at rated speed but use the timings from the worst stick unless it lets you OC to the best stick timings. Not being sure if your laptop let you change memory settings but never the less.

    RX 6000 have no issue with their drivers.
  20. aDoomGuy
    I think the problem here may be 4x DIMMs at 3600MT/s. Have you tried losening timings?
  21. aDoomGuy
    Try to unpin and pin again?
  22. aDoomGuy
    5700x will be suffiecient. I'm running very GPU bound on 6900xt with 5800x and that's in 1080p. Ryzen 5000 is stronk

    DOOM is heavy gaming. Sure, it can run on toasters, fridges and pocket calculators but I'm not too sure about Gigabyte laptops.
  24. aDoomGuy
    Perhaps light gaming is advertisement speak for "can run solitaire and minesweeper"?

    There are high end workstations that support quad channel such as Threadripper if I remember correctly.
