PC Problems you live with

[tobben]

mostly comes down to sound .. coil whine and loud jittery fan on psu .. annoying pump on the h80i among other terrible noises.

[camtron]

Long boot time from bios and stock cooler on my Intel I7 960 getting cooler master water cooler soon though ! :-)

[flibberdipper]

1. My Xbox controller turns off randomly.

 

2. I still have to use a netbook daily.

 

3. My Hyper 212 TX3 was bending my mobo, so I'm using my (surprisingly cool and quiet) Sempron heatsink.

My pc has a very annoying coil wine from my graphics card and i hate it!

AMD always has been bad with me  :angry:

[Genecidalic]

Coil whine from every gigabyte mobo ive ever owned

~From my last cleaning of the PC the weak cable from the power on button broke off. So I pushed it out trough the fan grill and I turn on the PC by grabbing the cable and either touch it with the 3.5mm headphone extender, put it on the front USB port or connect it with the black cable (which I don't anymore as it's annoying in the dark.

~Slow start-up even after taking out most of the auto start-up programs and services. So I almost never shut the PC down, but just leave it in sleep. (This kinda helps/fixes the problem above as I can wake the PC with the keyboard)

 

~Lame case that is loud from HDD and fans so I've bent a text book I used for French classes in class 5 or so. And jammed it between the side panel and the cables behind the motherboard. (Now it doesn't make noise ). And on the other side panel I used rubber pieces that have glue on one side.

 

~Bought a 120mm fan... don't have where to mount it, largest fan place is 100mm on this case. Was planning to mod the side-panel to make it fit, never got to do it so the fan just sits somewhere on a shelf.

 

~Power-supply had noisy fan so I took it out and inserted a 80mm case fan. (It's not welded there just pushed the cables that I didn't cut all the way off, trough the pin port on the fan . I really don't recommend this to do for anyone )

 

~2TB Seagate Drive died after 7 months, I don't have money to get a new one to back-up my stuff before sending it to RMA so it just sits there in the PC unconnected to power and data.

 

That should be about it

At the boot screen, you know you sometimes get that list asking what OS you want to boot? Yeah, I only have W7 Ultimate 64 installed, but for some amazing reason ... My PC lists it 8 other times, select the wrong one and it crashes and reboots, because naturally those other options physically do not exist. It's entertaining though, any PC with it's own little fault gives it character.

Keyboard behavious randomly changes from EN to FR or vice-versa.

[Geekazoid]

My DVD-RW carked it in my 6-year old PC.

[Flamewalker]

Piece of the plastic bent on the sata connector of my dvd drive (making it abit harder to plug it in)

Corsair h100 , molex connector has lose pins (ended up plugging it in a molex splitter for my fan controller and then duck taping the cables of the h100 molex so they won't move)

not having a place to stretch my legs out when gaming, my legs really like to be elevated but there is no comfortable place to put them. i also dont have enough room for my keyboard and mouse. so its all environmental, i took care of everything else pretty much

Well to be honest mate, I call my computer the Nzxt H2 footstool.

[Askew]

The USB 2.0 ports on the rear I/O sometimes randomly spaz out and I lose keyboard/mouse for a few seconds, it's an electrical thing because the power is lost and the detection sound goes nuts, wiggling the ports on the I/O makes it happen so it's a loose connection kind of thing.

 

It's very annoying but doesn't happen often enough for me to replace the board.

[CwGoh]

USB 3.0 front panel kinda wonky, my 7200.12 sounds like a pig when spinning up, backplate on my board is not fully secure but I don"t want to dismantle my whole system...

Hey man, I had this issue recently because I installed windows 7 on my mates SSD which was in my PC, and it was still listed in my bios. Go to run > msconfig > boot > and delete the OSs that isn't listed as current, it should solve your problem

[lukeptba]

Coolermaster fan for evo 212 runs at 100% so every time i start up i have to load up a program to set it at a lower speed (only a temporary cooler until custom water cooling loop is installed) I wear headphones to make it quiet.

Change fan speed in BIOS, that will change what is on startup/boot until speedfan or w/e you use takes it over.
