    Hi, For some time I have been experiencing automatic volume increase when turning on my PC. It happens rarely but I still want to identify whether it’s a faulty volume wheel on my Logiteh G915 TKL keyboard, G Hub or anything else. I think it usually happend when I do not use the PC for a day, but I may be wrong. I have switched to onboard memory of the keyboard two days ago and today it happened again. G Hub was running though so it also might have been it thus I have disabled autostart. Is there a way to check what was the source of the volume changes? Did anyone encounter this situation? I’m running Windows 11 fully up to date. Edit: I think it might also be doubling the old settings -> from 12 to 24 volume Edit2: If anyone is interested, I think it might have been an issue/quirk with the driver when the screen was put into sleep mode. Sometimes after this the sound stops working and the sound card is not detected at all over hdmi. Not sure though but seems to be the most likely cause.

    Hi, I have an Aorus 1660Ti GPU and I have a question to those who have more knowledge about fans and fan bearings. Today I accidentally set a fan profile which I normally use for custom temperature and acoustic testing and the fans jumped from about 0-40% speed up to abput 80%, it was a very dramatic increase over a minimal period of time which I reduced. My question would be how detrimental or damaging is it for the bearings? The GPU is mounter horizontally. I also can hear strange noises, similar to grinding, at about 80% but it goes away above or below that. I assum that it's just fan vireations due to that speciffic spead, right? Can the fans run at max speed, not for longer periods of time, just ocasionally? Thanks in advance.

    That is good news! I would try contacting Corsair for a replacement.

    He could replicate it with just the cpu and a single stick of ram.
  5. Sharpman85
    I don’t think you can get a replacement unil they diagnose your so 2-3 weeks of waiting. I think it’s worth it though.

    Is this maybe a dual bios motherboard? Seems like it needs to be replaced though..
  7. Sharpman85
    Let me know what you find out from support, maybe they will have to replace it.

    Next thing would be disabling fast boot both in the OS and the bios then.

    You might also want to disable CSM in the bios itself, in some cases it may require an OS reinstallation, but you can turn it back on if it does not help.

    Greetings from reddit, I’ve done some digging and there seems to be two ways to update Gigabyte bios which is fast and intact, can you try the second method? In general it sounds like a motherboard problem. Are you using a wireless keyboard?

    Hi, I have a question about the Nvidia Control Panel Windows Store App. Upon first installation in 20H2, automatic with a clean install, it asks to accept a EULA when first launched, but when I installed it on another PC without an MS user account it is the normal app without the license prompt. Does anyone know why? Does resetting the app via Apps & Features will prompt it again besides removing all of my custom settings?

    That’s how it was in my case, it was being blocked, but along with 2 other clients one of which has not been changed for some years now and all of them were from secure sites. I did not go that far as to add exceptions or confirm to download one of them twice (it warned a second time after confirming that I want to download it). Before I install something new I also routinely do an antivirus scan just in case. I’ve also found that starting from the beginning of March most torrent clients were being flagged as such. It was reported on reddit, but at the time of my blocking I just shrugged it off and did not attempt to download again. I just tried it a few days later on a more “dirty” PC and the time correlation of those apps starting to run/being downloadable adds up.

    I think that’s how it exactly is, I was just curious why it was blocking one PC while not the other, but it seems that the definitions made the difference. Maybe a pointless discussion but at least I get some insight on new things. Still O regret not checking the protection history for details, but it’s water under the bridge now.. PUA leaves Defender entries, right?
  14. Sharpman85
    I’ve done some digging about the PUA (potentially unwanted software) function and I think it’s what caused my confusion. In this article (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/intelligence/criteria) it says that torrent software can be categorized as such but there is the disclaimer that it concerns enterprise while I had the normal home version on all PCs. Maybe a false positive or the function being overprotective? I did not try it again on the same PC after a clean install though, but with all the updates in between it’s not a good test.
  15. Sharpman85
    Good to know, thanks. I have used that site in the past and monitor each link so I’m pretty sure it was safe, especially since at that time 3 other sites with the same software were also flagged as suspicious/malicious. Maybe indeed those were definitions, maybe I’ll try again just to verify.
  16. Sharpman85
    Yes, I know as I keep it up to date at least twice a day. Just curious though what could have caused it and whether it’s something on my main PC like potential malicious software or just definitions like you said.

    Hi, I have encountered a curious thing regarding downloading some files, i.e. on one PC torrent client downloads were flagged as potentially unwanted or malicious (I don’t remember exactly) while on another the warning was not displayed. Both ran on 20H2 and Edge, but it was a 2-3 week time span so some update might have changed. Is it some kind of heuristics? Those were secure sites but as I do not use software like that in general I’m curious why it behaved like that. The second PC is a fresh installation fully up to date with no MS acount logged in. Can this be a factor?
  18. Sharpman85
    I think I won't bother with it anymore, in the future I will just check the notification center first or the app settings instead of quickly clicking without thinking more deeply. Thanks anyway for your time.
  19. Sharpman85
    Tried it already, besides all of them were already enabled.
  20. Sharpman85
    Yes, I've been there and it's not present here, thus I suspect it's part of the some other app.

    Hi, I've recently set some notifications to be ignored directly on them when they were displayed, but now I would like them back. The problem is it's not a separate application but rather it was a part of the settings or automatic file download sections. Is there any way to unignore them?
  22. Sharpman85
    Ok, I will verify later them, thanks! Edit: I've done some testing and it seems that the yellow Q LED remains on for some time even with the XMP profile off. What is even more strange, the OS did not boot twice with those settings, once the screen remained black and I had to turn it off via the power button while the other time I got the WHAE BSOD error when logging into my account. Upon enabling the profile it seems to be working correctly. Do you have any ideas why the OS is behaving like that? If the memory was the problem it should give WHAE errors with the XMP enabled, right? Maybe I'm just overreacting, but I'm curious now why the Q LED is on and whether I messed something up when I was installing the fans and doing general dust maintenance. Edit2: 4 passes of memtest86 and windows memory diagnostic did not give any errors Edit3: I just remembered that I have a -0,50 mV offset on vcore, can this be causing the error when xmp is disabled?

    Hi, I have been using the ROG Strix 390i motherboard for over a year now and yesterday I have noticed that the dram q led (yellow) stays on for a longer period of time after starting the PC. It’s on when I’m in the BIOS (2407 version) and sometime stays on when I log into Windows, but everything seems to be working and the XMP profile stays on. It turns off after some time, not too long. Can fellow Asus or even that motherboard users verify? It may have been like that since the beginning, but I’ve added two fans via splitters and noticed it only when I was checking whether they were working correctly.
  24. Sharpman85
    Yes, that can definitely be the case, especially when you have better hardware and are not limited by laptop-level thermals I tend to verify everything , but the strangest thing is with Minecraft is that it didn’t seem that way. I will have to get someone else to have a look, maybe it’s just me and I need a 144 Hz display.. As for the objects in 30 fps instead of 60 I’ve noticed that also, it’s not nice but doesn’t look like artifacts. EDIT: small update, I've tried enabling DST and it helped so it was just me being picky and complaining about how computer graphic works.
  25. Sharpman85
    The jitter is not visible in the picture, that was something different - light with different angles which seemed like artifacts. You may be right, I’ve been using notebooks with limited power up to a year ago and maybe I’m just noticing it, like moving grass far away having a shimmering effect or the same thing with a lot of trees in minecraft when you move a camera making it seem like stutter. It’s hard to notice on videos this hard to point out.
