  1. This is what I think the font was like before:
  2. My font on various websites randomly changed to this. How do I change it to the default font?
  3. I just played killing floor 2. Most of the time the gpu percentage would be the same as the cpu percentage or would be 5-10% higher than the cpu percentage. But there was one intense moment where the cpu usage was 20-30% above the gpu.
  4. This was build from an old pre built and the prebuild had the two drives in raid zero.
  5. I built a rig for my friend. It has a hd 7850, q6600, and 4 gb ddr2 (4 x 1gb). Whenever I played games, the gpu and cpu percentage would not be around 100 and I was getting around 25 - 60 fps. The gpu percentage was about 50-60 percent. I was previously using a 350w power supply and I thought that is what was holding it back. I replaced it with an evga 500w and I still have the same problem. Another problem is that there are little lag spikes in the game and they eventually go away once you've been in a certain area for a little bit. I believe this is the fault of the hard drives. I have two 320gb hard drives in raid zero. Could a slow or old hard drive hold back a gpu like that? One last thing, the problem wasn't thermal throttling because the card was at 63 degrees Celsius.
  6. So load the usb, reinstall ubuntu, then go to bios and set usb as boot device and then install ubuntu again from usb? That doesn't make any sense to me.
  7. I installed Ubuntu 15.10 via usb. When I turn on my computer I just get a black screen with a white dash at the top left corner that blinks in and out. Any suggestions?
  8. I have an att uverse 45 mbit connection. Speed test reads 30 mbit. Even with 30 mbit I should easily be able to stream YouTube videos and I can't. It has a hard time loading at 480p. What do I do?
  9. I have U-Verse internet at 45mbps. Everything seems to load normally, but then when I go to YouTube, it doesn't load. It will start the video at the lowest quality, play the video for like 2 seconds and then buffer. I can literally go on twitch and watch streams easily at source quality. Also, some downloads are unusually slow as well. At my dad's house with 75mbps comcast, something would download in a couple seconds. With the same file with 45mbps U-Verse it would take 10 minutes. Im using a powerline adapter and I'm 99.9% sure it's not a problem with that. I've tried watching youtube on my wireless devices at close range to the router and it still wouldn't work. Also, I went to the internet speed test website and i got 20mbps.
  10. I have several questions regarding overclocking an athlon x4 860k on an fm2+ motherboard with a cm hyper 212 evo. Which chipsets have the ability to overclock the athlon? How do I determine what a good overclocking chipset would be? If I wanted to get a good overclock with those things that I listed, what is a good fm2+ chipset that will do the job without costing too much?
  11. Windows 10 has been out for a bit now and I still can't overclock my Pentium G3258. When do you think this will be fixed? Will the fix come in a windows update? Thanks for reading.
  12. Let's say I have a usb mic and a headset. The headset is plugged into my pc and I want to hear windows sounds but I also want to monitor my voice. How would I do that? This is the mic I was thinking of using: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QJOZS4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER . I tried using the "listen to this device" option in windows but that has latency. I want to be able to monitor my voice without latency.
  13. Did you read my paragraph? I want to monitor my voice but with usb, there's latency.
  14. I want to buy the audio-technica atr2100. It has both xlr and usb. I want to use an xlr to 3.5mm cable to use the xlr connection with my computer instead of usb because of monitoring latency issues with usb. Would xlr sound worse than the usb connection?
  15. So if I bought any usb microphone, I wouldn't be able to monitor myself without latency through windows? My old headset used regular 3.5mm headphone jacks and I was able to monitor myself without latency using the realtek hd audio program. I was thinking about getting a mic with xlr and getting a xlr to 3.5mm cable to plug the mic in my computer that way. Would that make the sound quality worse than usb?
  16. I have a Razer Kraken Usb headset. I want to hear myself through my headset because the headphones kind of block out my voice. I don't want to use the "Listen to this device" setting in windows because my voice is delayed and it actually plays back my voice through windows. So if I recorded some audio from only windows and not my mic for example, it would also pick up my voice if I talk because it's playing back my voice through windows. I know on some headphones, you automatically hear your own voice through the headphone without delay and it doesn't play through windows. I basically want it to be like that. I was able to do it before with realtek hd audio software, but it stopped detecting my headphones. There isn't an option for this in the Razer Synapse software. Is there any way I could hear a no delay feed of myself with this headset? Thanks for taking your time to read this long rambling paragraph.
  17. Yes, It's working fine. The problem is that the realtek software isn't detecting it anymore.
  18. But I was able to use features in the realtek software before that would affect the headset.
  19. I have a razer kraken usb headset. I got the realtek hd audio drivers from msi's website because I have an msi z87-g41 pc mate. The Realtek Hd Audio program that you get once you install the driver used to detect my headphones and the mic but now it's not. The problem may have been caused by me updating razer synapse but i'm not sure. I decided to uninstall the realtek driver and get the newest version but that didn't work either. I also tried completely reinstalling the headset driver and razer synapse and that didn't work as well. The program has a couple of useful features that I would like to access but can't because it's not detecting the headphones or mic. Thanks for taking your time to help.
  20. I followed your advice and it seems to be running like normal again. Thanks
  21. I have tried rebooting and it didn't work. I wasn't able to even open my anti virus software(avg & malwarebytes). I have not tried booting in safe mode. I already started restoring to an earlier point, but if that doesn't work i'll try safe mode. Thanks for the suggestion
  22. I have a legitimate copy of windows 8.1 pro. After I was gone for a week, I went on my computer and it generally ran fine. I did notice that a couple programs were unresponsive though. The next day I went on my pc and everything is not responsive. I can hardly do anything without the program having to close. A few times windows just completely froze. I was able to get windows update open and it said windows was updated as soon as I started it the first day I got back. Could this be the update that's causing all of this? I've had this computer for almost a year now. I do maintenance on it pretty regularly(getting dust out of it with compressed air). I replaced my hard drive about a month or two ago with a 1 tb caviar blue and installed windows on it. If this were a hardware issue, I'd imagine it would have something to do with the hard drive or cpu. Anyways, thanks for reading UPDATE #1: Currently in the process of restoring my pc to a restore point made yesterday around the time that it updated. Though this may work, It would be nice if you still had a suggestion just in case this doesn't work My specs: Case: CM elite 110 Mobo: Msi H97i Cpu: Pentium g3258 @ 4.6ghz (Reaches 60C max) Cpu cooler: CM seidon 120v Ram: Kingston hyper x fury 1x8gb 1600mhz Gpu: Sapphire r9 270 Hdd: 1tb Caviar blue Psu: Evga 600B
  23. I'm using a pentium g3258. But I was using a z87 motherboard and I was able to run the ram at 1600mhz with the same cpu.
  24. I don't have that option in my overclocking tab. I also have the latest bios and msi claims this motherboard has xmp. A jayztwocents video said the same thing but I don't have the option.
