I used to use integrated graphics and now I tried to add a gpu and the gpu is in perfect condition but the problem is the display i have a challenger b450m motherboard and there’s a blue light

So pretty much when i open up pcvr, after a few minutes my entire pc and game freezes, any fixes yall?

I haven’t used my PC in a couple of months and I know there was power here and there because i’d occasionally hit my keyboard and the backlight glows and my mic mute button flashes red. When i tried pressed the power button no signal from the PC but my accessories are all lit up still.

I tried the Unplugging the power supply method as well as reseating the RAM. I disconnected my GPU cable from the GPU and my GPU printed that red light that nothing is connected.

Help i’m just a girl 😓

Ok so I got a Gigabyte GA-Z270N-WIFI Mini ITX LGA1151 Motherboard that had a GeForce gtx 980. Decided to upgrade to a GeForce rtx 5050 and when I tried to install the drivers (after five attempts), screen went black and stayed that way. Could NOT even get past to gigabyte boot up screen before seeing nothing but black. The wattage is good enough. The cables are connected right. When I tried the first time it failed.

Is this just another case of me never being able to have anything good in life?

So when i launch into the game everything is fine for the first 2 minutes (give it or take) and them after those few minutes of freedom it starts what I like to call stuttering now this stuttering is basically valorant bricking my pc after it has been launched, BOTH WHILE IN THE GAME AND OUT OF THE GAME (once it has been fully exited) what i call bricking is basically when my entire computer just freezes for a few seconds and then coming back like nothing happened and then doing it again and again i've went through

Full Windows Reinstall (95% via partition because i dont have a usb and i dont feel like buying one lmfao)
Factory Reset
Getting a new PSU
Reseating literally EVERYTHING
Uninstall Reinstall
Bios update
Downloading Drivers
Checking RAM
Safe Mode Boot
Hardware GPU BS everyone keeps telling me to disable when I disabled it from the getgo

Now I do have a few speculations as why this happens but cannot fully prove because im not an expert on these sorts of things but I do think its caused by one of these things

Not enough power to my computer (My room simply just doesnt have enough power directed to it to supply every electronic in here)
Parts being "fried" (RAM or my GPU's VRAM which i HIGHLY doubt)
Some kind of CPU problem

Here are my specs if anyone wants to dig deeper than i have
ASRock AMD RYZEN 5 7600X 6-Core Processor (4.70 GHz)
32.0 GB of RAM (31.1 GB usable)
AMD Radeon RX 7800XT (16GB)
(i DONT know what this is but i'll slap it on here anyways: AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (486MB)
2TB SAMSUNG SSD PRO
B650 EAGLE AX (from GIGABYTE)

So yeah... I WOULD BE SO HAPPY if sombody would know my issue and solve it. I have been trying to solve it nearly half year with out any lucky. It's weird, bec when I got this pc, in like 2022/2023 IT was DAM fast! Like booted ON WINDOWS/DESKTOP just in 18-25 sec. And Like year from today it was still as fast as new... Now it's taking that about 7 minutes to boot....
When I boot my computer now, it's like 7 sec then it comes on "Press F1 or Delete to go bios" and 3sec after that, it shows asus (motherboad logo) and loads few sec. Then it's just black screen... (For 4-5 minutes) and when it finally boots in that time, then I log in and it's GRAY screen for 1-2minutes???
So My Build is:

GPU = 4070 ti super (Gigabyte windforce)

CPU = i7 12700k

Motherboard: TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS WIFI D4
RAM = 32gb ddr4 3600mhz.

ONLY ONE drive/storage and it's SSD (Samsung 2tb 980 PRO)
PSU 850 w some corsair platinium/gold

Tired already these:
Updated all drivers to newest one (Clean install for Gpu drivers)
Updated bios to newest version
Fast boot IS enabled

factory settings on bios

On start up I removed all other than microsoft apps/services from start up and it's still the same...
Memory test = disabled

+ I have fully cleaned my pc from inside 2-4/year.

I Would be so happy if sombody of you guys would know/guess the problem!

So i recently had a issue my graphics card where it randomly freezes and crashes when playing games, and today it stopped working completely and when i went to device manager my gpu had a yellow triangle with a exclamation mark. i check its properties and check details and it reports the issue as “Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43). also when i go to windows update it says “your device is missing important security and quality fixes”

Howdy, so I've got a bit of a unique problem on my hands that I cannot seem to identify the source of.

For reference, these are my specs

Zotac Twin 3060Ti

Ryzen 5 5600X3D

16GB DDR4 Oloy Warhawk (running at 2133mhz)

Samsung 970 Evo 1TB

Asus B550m

Around a month ago, whilst playing either Roblox or R6 Siege, my entire operating system would just die. No bluescreen, no automatic restart. The audio would cut, then a half second later the game I was playing would freeze, then another 1-2 seconds later windows and my inputs would become entirely unresponsive until I turned my PC off and on again. A small temporary fix was to just perpetually lower the frame rate/resolution of the game but I play siege semi-competitively so eventually that started to become a hinderance.

Eventually I turned off the discord overlay and hardware acceleration and that yielded good results for a few days, but then the issues returned.

A few days later, I got the idea that it could just be my PC overheating (even though GPU and CPU temps never went above 70C) so I decided to crank my GPU fan speeds up to 100% and that solved my issues for a few days too.

Then a few days ago, the issues just came back out of the blue while playing Rust. I considered the possibility that maybe it was the SSD because of a certain quirk before the crashes (disk usage would spike to 100% a few seconds prior with 0 read or write speed), so I went and purchased a heatsink for it. Heatsink did nothing except for making my SSD blend in with my white build a bit more lol. I also got the crackhead idea of just taking the panel off my case and pointing my fan straight into it to no avail.

Now I'm reaching my wits end and feel forced to buy a completely new computer if I can't find a fix here.

I've tried an assortment of things

I've ran chkdsk, I've done a samsung magician erase, got crystal disk info which reports a 98% SSD health. I've tweaked with every BIOS setting imaginable (RAID, UEFI, and undervolting my parts just to name a few off the top of my head, also reverted them back to defaults in case I did something that was working against my computer).

I reinstalled windows numerous times, changed my SSD slot back and forth, I even got two different custom windows forks (AtlasOS and Revolt specifically) but no beans.

The only critical log in EventViewer is a Kernel-Power issue (Event ID 41, Task Category 63), and it only displays that there WAS an error and a system reboot took place

"The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."

it only creates the log when I actually turn my computer back on however, its not a log that gets saved prior to the complete freeze.

I'm open to any and all ideas but if I can't find a solution then I'm just gonna bite the moderately expensive bullet and get a new one so here's to hoping someone may be able to recognize or identify my issue.

A couple of month ago I’ve upgraded from a gtx 1650-i3 10100f to Rtx 3060ti-i5 11400f. And its paired with asrock h510m-hvs. I noticed little to no performance upgrade. I’ve ran bench marks and stress tests and my cpu core usage is at about 4.2ghz but after about 30secs it’s drops to 2.5ghz and it keeps fluctuating between those two numbers. In games the clock are even lower between 2.0-1.4 but one core stays higher at about 2.9-2.5. Ive enable all the right setting in the bios and I was thinking to upgrade to a gigabyte b560m aorus elite because of my budget.

Hi everyone. I hope this is the right flair, but I have a Dell Desktop, which honestly has not been used in a while and is not turning on. The monitor has an orange light which I know is normal. However, I tried powering up the box (not sure the actual name), which would normally display a white light when pressed. It is not turning on. Please advise. Thank you!

Hello, fellow redditors,

I have ongoing issue with my gaming pc, I will post specs at the bottom of this post.

This freaking gaming pc is randomly turns off while I’m gaming ( Diablo 4, POE/2, some racing sims, BDO etc.), it turns off all graphics like it shuts down but all the lights are on in the tower. I have to power off fully and turn on and its fine for 1/2 days and it does it again.

I have updated and tested everything in this pc found nothing. I need a second opinion.

Help me please! (If there is an error on the language/grammar sorry English is my 3rd language)

Thanks everyone.

quick backstory I guess, recently my laptop kept crashing and eventually not opening anything but bios and a black and grey screen thing with like the critical system died thing and system32 srt txt errors. So I tried using the windows installer by Microsoft, it froze, opened up my laptop and unplugged the battery (probably didn’t do anything) and couldn’t get the ssd out, but after, I tried using my laptops driver from the company and it lasted a bit longer before freezing again after 10-15 minutes or so. That’s pretty much it, my laptop is a AX16 from ACEMAGIC. first time posting on reddit too, so i apologize for messy layout, not gonna fix it though. any tips, for the laptop i mean, not my text layout. ty
