Hi During the first boot of the day (or after around 8 hrs. of no activity) everything is fine and boots up as normal; everything on the mother board detected at correct frequencies and for the GPU correct PCI revision and link width. 3d Mark stress test runs without issues throughout the day. The problem starts when I try to hibernate/resume, restart or shutdown and then turn on within ~6-8hrs. The dGPU will not get detected in either the bios or windows, computer will boot with the iGPU and its specific monitor with all other functions detected and working normally. Normally when I go into the bios and enter (advanced > System agent configuration > PCI express configuration ) i can see the 2 pci connections direct to the CPU , one m.2 slot and a gen 5 x16 slot which will show a link speed of gen 4 x16 but after a reboot this is empty. I have 3 monitors, left connected to iGPU and middle and right to dGPU, all monitors work fine when connected to iGPU. After a reboot the center monitor (DVI) will wake from sleep and act like it gas got a signal from the gpu around 3 times then go back to sleep. GPU fans are spinning at this point and I can feel a feint bit of heat on the heat pipes a few minutes after boot suggesting it has some power going to it though no part of the GPU feels unusually warm. I had not done anything new with the system when this started happening.

Also wondering if I can see info of the vbios and what it does/supposed to do at boot? Sorry about the long post

sorry i meant if this occurs when replaying in Full screen, i.e. It could be an interpolation issue playing a 1080p video at a slightly smaller window

stupid question but does this happen when you watch the recording in full screen?

try entering \\computer into the file explorer (replace "computer" with the name of the computer with the plex server)

sorry misread your main question, have you tried through the control panel? mouse properties?

Ok assuming you are using precision touchpad drivers: 1) a) Search for Touchpad in the search thing next to the windows button (go to step 2) OR b) Go to All Settings (Gear Cog Icon) in the Notification area and Click on Devices 2) Then go to the Touchpad settings scroll down untill you see "Scroll and zoom" then under that will be an option (tick box) to disable it

I'm no expert at this but a little googling out of curiosity seems to suggest that the chip (NV102-a2) could be a NVIO chip , which apparently handles outputs for the main chip....??

Always good to check the official website first, but: Minimum(720p): AMD Radeon™ R9 280 Recommended(1080p): Radeon™ RX 480 (No Radeon Recomdation for 4k HDR??) Source: https://www.finalfantasyxv.com/en/windows-edition

If you bought it recently i recommend you return it if the store allows it (bend the truth and says its unusably slow). Looks like there may be an empty slot for the another stick of DDR3L RAM ( Youtube: ASUS X541UV RAM UPGRADE ) (Youtube: Asus VivoBook Max X541 disassembly and battery replace ) and maybe get a Samsung 120GB SSD AS i could not find a tear-down of your exact computer I recommend you check what components are in your specific computer before buying anything and Do make sure you DONT break any warranty void stickers if it is still in warranty

It should work for your purposes but im not sure if it has any drawbacks, you dont have any other options untill you get a new monitor

specifically something like this: Cables Kart DVI to VGA Adapter (Black) has to be active (says in the description DVI-D to VGA)

I did smin similar, I went to the store to buy a 1060 but they had a Ex-Demo 1070 for sale for very little more so i spent my entire bank on that instead

as said earlier, this card (according to the website) only had DVI-D (digital only) so you will need an ACTIVE adapter,.... or..... try find a ok dvi monitor second hand

I say go for it, cheaper than doing a full upgrade to ryzen, plus you never know what games come out next and how cpu demanding they would be. I did something similar but went from a 7600 to 7700k (stock)
