I bought a Corsair computer a little less then a month ago and it worked fine, but I got a problem yesterday, I hadn’t used it in a few days, and I took the power cord out whenever I left so my brother doesn’t mess it up. Whenever I turn it on it boots normally, the cpu, dram, and vca lights turn on, and then the boot light turns on for a split second, and then on my monitor it shows the Corsair loading screen, then goes black and says no signal. I’ve tried reslotting the ram, the gpu, and unplugging and replugging the gpu cable, but nothing works. I haven’t overclocked it, and I tried contacting Corsair, but their not responding. 
 

specs:

it’s a Corsair vengeance i7400

 

i5 13th gen

ASUS 3070

750 watt psu

32 gigs of vengeance ram

It looks like it tries to boot Windows.

 

As soon as you see the spinning line, hold your power button for five seconds until the pc is off.  Boot again and do the same thing.

 

The third, or fourth time you boot doing this, should prompt Windows into recovery mode.

 

If not, check your uefi / bios boot priority to check which storage device is being accessed first.

How bad is e-waste?  Listen to that Joe Rogan episode.

Windows 11 will just force business to "recycle" "obscolete" hardware.  Microsoft definitely isn't bothered by this at all, and seems to want hardware produced just a few years ago to be considered obsolete.  They have also not shown any interest nor has any other company in a similar financial position, to help increase tech recycling whatsoever.  Windows 12 might be cloud-based and be a monthly or yearly fee.

 

Software suggestions


Just get f.lux [Link removed due to forum rules] so your screen isn't bright white at night, a golden orange in place of stark 6500K bluish white.

released in 2008 and still being improved.

 

Dark Reader addon for webpages.  Pick any color you want for both background and text (background and foreground page elements).  Enable the preview mode on desktop for Firefox and Chrome addon, by clicking the dark reader addon settings, Choose dev tools amd click preview mode.

 

NoScript or EFF's privacy badger addons can block many scripts and websites that would load and track you, possibly halving page load time!

 

F-droid is a place to install open-source software for android, Antennapod, RethinkDNS, Fennec which is Firefox with about:config, lots of performance and other changes available, mozilla KB has a huge database of what most of the settings do.  Most software in the repository only requires Android 5 and 6!

 

I recommend firewall apps (blocks apps) and dns filters (redirect all dns requests on android, to your choice of dns, even if overridden).  RethinkDNS is my pick and I set it to use pi-hole, installed inside Ubuntu/Debian, which is inside Virtualbox, until I go to a website, nothing at all connects to any other server.  I also use NextDNS.io to do the same when away from home wi-fi or even cellular!  I can even tether from cellular to any device sharing via wi-fi, and block anything with dns set to NextDNS, regardless if the device allows changing dns.  This style of network filtration is being overridden by software updates on some devices, forcing a backup dns provuder, such as google dns, when built in dns requests are not connecting.  Without a complete firewall setup, dns redirection itself is no longer always effective.

now what do I do

Are you in windows recovery mode? If so, try to go to the 'troubleshoot' option.

There you have the option to reset the PC or attempt other fixes under advanced options. https://windowsreport.com/how-to-enter-recovery-mode-in-windows-10/
