  1. Thus Ensuring that it will be archived in a number of spots making it impossible to remove forever
  2. Yeah that power supply should be fine for a 760. I used the same one for a 980 and it was great. I'd go with cleaning out the computer
  3. What power supply do you have? You can check your temps to see using hardwareinfo, and look at it under load. Usually though this happens with an old power supply not being able to provide enough power during a spike.
  4. Here's what the Litigation Hold and Demand says Though this is from one side of the ordeal, I think the reasoning is sound. It's not as if the journalist used fraudulent credentials. The main point is that the website's source needs to be defined through law as authorized access or not. The Supreme Court says this Does the journalist exceed authorized access by looking at the website source? The defense lawyer obviously says no, saying
  5. This doesn't change the fact that anyone could access sensitive information within their browser. The reporter did not change anything within the computer systems either. That's no hacking, otherwise I've hacked half of the websites I've been on. Furthermore, the journalist doesn't need authorization to read a websites underlying HTML. That's a public document. Also, the difference between the State of Missouri and Google is that Google awards bounties. Missouri tries to award criminal charges.
  6. Cool ! Got it working. I put it on the proper drive. It gave me an excuse to switch to UEFI. I used another guide on the site for MBR.
  7. So, uh, I deleted my bootloader on accident. Windows has a happy habit of placing its bootloaders on other drives, so when I formatted a drive, it killed Windows. Right now, I'm without a Microsoft OS, so I need a different method than what I've used in the past. I can still boot into Ubuntu. I tried using an installation media, but it couldn't find Windows.
  8. All you have to do is when you reinstall steam, point your downloads back to the right folder on steam. You can replace your documents + company by backing them up on the drives too. Everything else sounds right
  9. I had the family computer with Windows 8 freshly installed. Unfortunately, I don't have a picture that doesn't have my siblings in it, but the equipment is still at my parents home. This is my current computer in all its dorm room glory
  10. I don't have XMP on my laptop, so I suppose I'll have to pony up the money.
  11. My laptop has these symptoms - Drivers crashing randomly, screen lockups, other processes crashing and whatnot. I also ran a memtest and saw a lot of red. Does that sound like I need new RAM?
  12. Use UEFI if possible. It's new, and makes it easier to go to Win 11
  13. If you have a z or x series chipset on your motherboard, you can overclock that cpu. The Arctic Freezer should give you some decent overclocking headroom. I'm partial to the Noctua NH-D15, which is massive
