The fact you had to upgrade just to fix it is what concerns me

# dense mirage Do you have a better option?

Well, I am a Linux user. Unless the Linux bootloader itself is corrupt, most issues can be fixed simply by going into the GRUB configuration file, fixing what needs to be fixed, updating GRUB, and rebooting

hoary nacelle
#

tfw updating to beta version is more stable

dense mirage
#

GRUB is working perfectly fine

#

And issues with GRUB are rare and far between, I can't think of a single issue I've ever had with it

flat pawn
#

does anyone know if i should update my pc to windows 10 21H1?

dense mirage
#

You should at least apply all updates that are available for your current version of windows

#

21H1 is up to you

flat pawn
runic geyser
#

just like every other linux user, they need to make it known

dense mirage
#

How much you want to beat they have either Kali or Arch installed somewhere lol

flat pawn
#

do you think i should do it? @dense mirage

runic geyser
#

how much do u want to bet they use one of the arch versions that come with an installer

#

or are just full normie and use the disgrace of an OS that is manjaro

dense mirage
flat pawn
#

if you were in my position, would you do it?

dense mirage
#

Maybe? It wouldn't be that noticeable to the average user though

flat pawn
#

alrighty i guess ill do it

#

thank you

runic geyser
#

My main pc has been 1809 for the past forever

dense mirage
#

But you don't even get proper WSL with that

runic geyser
#

i dont need it

#

i lave LSL for that

dense mirage
#

Lol

runic geyser
#

Linux System running Linux

dense mirage
#

I'm now going to call singularity LSL

runic geyser
#

i have vms for most windows versions if i need to test anything

dense mirage
#

Windows is for a few games and the annoying programs that don't run in VMs. Why bother testing anything on it?

runic geyser
#

mostly malware

#

also just to flex my host capacity

dense mirage
#

Ah

#

Technically I could run almost all of my games on Linux, but I don't feel like cluttering it up

#

And they tend to freak out about running on i3. It does weird things to the full screen windows

runic geyser
#

gui is bloat

#

cant relate

dense mirage
#

tmux is bloat you mean

flat pawn
#

i want to update my chipset drivers i want to download it now but idk which one do i choose from

can someone tell me which one do i choose?

Well, kinda sorta legal

It's technically a violation of the EULA

Windows has always been surprisingly dependent on their browser

#

Eh, it would break several things

last gorge
#

just like our friend cortana

dense mirage
#
#

I personally think they deliberately designed it to depend on the browser because of that trial

#

I forget exactly what broke

#

I know file search broke, system help was gone, parts of settings, and the start menu gets crippled

#

Honestly a loss of theming in the UI seems like the much better option, still kinda funny though

General fix for random windows problems

From an admin command prompt or powershell, run:

sfc /scannow

If that doesn't work, try:

dism /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Then, try running sfc again.
Repeat as necessary

I hate these army computers so much

And now i get a black screen whenever i log in 🤷‍♂️

Rest in peace

vestal ibex
#

Yay failed hard drives!

fiery tundra
#

Army needs to allocate more of it's huge budget to PC's.

vestal ibex
#

Speaking from experience there's a lot of things they could better spend money on for every branch. Upgrading systems from Windows 7 is clearly not a priority.

fiery tundra
#

Army for the most part did upgrade from windows 7. Depends on where you're at.

#

At my home station all of them are upgraded.

#

But I'm in the middle east currently, so i guess it's low priority here 🤷‍♂️

vestal ibex
#

That, and keep in mind the tens of thousands of computers they use. It's hard to allocate a budget to upgrading ALL of them. You're probably using the decommissioned systems from another base, upgraded from XP when Win 8 came out lol.

anyone know the issue to this?

Check internet connection, make sure it's not blocked by a firewall, if that fails use DDU in safe mode to clean it and try to install again.

That's, uh, the normal Windows. Just not activated.

Sometimes when you install windows it will be a few days or hours until activate windows comes up

cinder mauve
#

uh

#

i just reinstalled windows, as before this i had linux elementary os

#

windows seems laggy

#

like i pressed windows button to go to start menu

#

looked like the menu popped up at 18 fps

#

and then

#

THERES NO CURSOR

#

like my trackpad wont work

i cant click anything i cant move it at all

like the cursor is gone

well now it reappeared

but its lagging

How'd you install windows

now everything is working

but my start menu wont show up

when pressing on the icon, or 🪟 button

#

Restart computer and try

#

Sounds silly but

i have the same problem sometimes and i just reboot and it goes away

how do i restart if i dont have start menu access

would i just turn it off with power button

#

Hey, so recently for the past two weeks I think, my pc has randomly gone into sleep mode and won't wake up, I say randomly because it does it while I'm using clicking and doing things.

#

The only way to start using it again is by turning it off by the case as nothing I do seems to wake it up

#

I've ran whocrashed but whocrashed doesn't render it as a crash or bsod because its not crashing rather its just sleeping.

#

If anyone can help me with this or let me know what I should do to diagnose the problem that would be great.

floral wedge
serene crown
#

Yeah its sort of like that, but it does it randomly only within 5 minutes of me first turning it on after it being off for the night. Its also completely unconditional, it just does that without anything inducing it.

#

I heard awhile back that there is a problem with asus motherboards, that they have a problem with sleeping

floral wedge
#

It really does

#

Most of the time it won't stay in sleep

serene crown
#

I have an Asus strix motherboard

floral wedge
#

Right now im out of the house and I put it in sleep mode but if you click on my profile you can see I have been 'playing' beamng for hours

serene crown
#

Oh wow

#

Yeah,

floral wedge
#

That's my issue and it's quite annoying

serene crown
#

Now that I've ruled it as an asus issue,

#

its quite annoying to me yes,

floral wedge
#

My pc idles at 200-400w

#

And when this happens it's not great

serene crown
#

But the fact that it is probably not an outlying hardware issue I'm not too worried

serene crown
floral wedge
#

Win11 has caused the idle to be quite high

serene crown
#

Hmm

floral wedge
#

Asus has really good motherboard but they have some really weird issues

serene crown
#

Yeah, I agree.

#

I am very glad its not a hardware issue though, as long as its just a weird kink that the motherboard has its fine with me.

floral wedge
#

A program for ROG will cause some anticheats to go off, sleep mode is wack, odd iCue support

#

And most of it is just software side causing it

serene crown
#

Yes, and also I can't get my rgb to work right

floral wedge
#

As with most things tech, parts good. Software bad

serene crown
#

Yeah.

#

As much as I love asus and their motherboards, when it comes time to get it replaced I'm gonna have to not get an asus motherboard

floral wedge
#

I used iCue for a long while but then it defaulted and iCue no longer sees it, I had to install and uninstall armory crate for that

serene crown
#

Oh wow,

#

I can't get my rgb to work with icue at all

#

Only my ram and my argb sometimes works but only until I shut it down and turn it on the next day

#

then it defaults to armor crate

Just need to determine if I need a new Windows key. New build CPU/Mobo etc. same drives as old build but doing a fresh install of windows per recommendations.

#

Any way to bring my Windows key over from the old build to this one or do I need to buy a new key

#

If it matters my old Windows license originally was from an OEM key

last gorge
#

It would have to be linked with a Microsoft account, but afaik oem keys dont work for transferring

dense mirage
#

Yup

dusty cypress
#

Kinda what I figured. I logged in with my Windows account and it lead me to believe I had no keys available

You can look for another key on eBay or something or just leave it with o key

or hackerman it stonks1

Or switch to Linux

that's a weak reason

Don't bother, windows will automatically sort out pretty much all the drivers automatically

The only ones it won't take care of will probably be for the GPU, but those are easy to set up after cloning

gpu and audio drivers

example in strix if u want to use dts functions u need to install the specific driver

other stuff is fine xD

Most standard audio device are fine, there are some that require proprietary drivers in windows

I also agree with tomie, the only drivers I ever mess with the most after windows finishes its stuff are gpu and audio drivers, since windows usually gives super outdated versions of em or just crappy ones

#

What if you don’t get windows?

cinder mauve
#

You get linux

#

Or unlicensed windows

#

Just search up generic windows keys

#

For unactivated windows

#

Linux is free and comes in many different flavors

#

Ubuntu, Arch linux, debian, you name it😉

spice beacon
crisp spire
#

its not

spice beacon
spice beacon
#

Hmm

crisp spire
#

Its in a legal gray area

#

not perfectly legal but not illegal either

spice beacon
#

Yeah i suppose

dreamy bay
#

Do I need a Microsoft account to use windows?

last gorge
#

No you can use a local account

dreamy bay
#

Well I have a Microsoft account but my moms using it for her pc

shadow jay
#

but if u connect to internet during installation

#

it ask u to sign to windows

#

but u can skip it

vestal ibex
#

Windows 11 so far is requiring a M$ account, lots of pressure to change that though

sudden tinsel
#

Quick question, if my windows is tied to my microsoft account. OS settings do not transfer right? I've had some things happen and now there are certain things that "your settings are managed by your organization". I'd appreciate it if it wasn't so. please @ me if you have a definitive answer, thanks.

vestal ibex
#

your settings are managed by your organization
This is easy enough to get around in the group policy editor, gpedit.msc

vestal ibex
sudden tinsel
#

Yeah I've tried several gpedit.msc solutions and none of them have worked so far. I'll hope for a clean install will fix it as I'd very much like it if I wasn't forced to a scheduled restart at random intervals.

vestal ibex
#

That sounds like a nightmare lol. A clean start is a good next step.

sudden tinsel
#

Appreciate the advice

dreamy bay
#

Once I install windows onto my pc, do I have to take the usb out of my pc?

spice beacon
#

Technically no but you don't need it anymore once windows is installed

#

My sata drives health recovery partition thing is showing up as a separate drive, how can i get rid of it?

wraith timber
#

Same actually

#

My hard drive

#

System partition thingy

vestal ibex
#

@spice beacon @wraith timber You can just go into disk management, right click the partition, hit "change drive letter", and remove the assigned letter

spice beacon
vestal ibex
#

Uh oh, borked how badly? Like merged libraries borked or formatted the EFI partition borked?

spice beacon
#

Got back in after that did sfc scannow

#

For about the billionth time

#

Then after sfc after reinstall i don't have any errors so far but it's only been like 20 mins

vestal ibex
#

I never have an overclock on when I'm doing critical things like installing or copying an OS, it can get weird.

#

Did you do dism as well?

spice beacon
#

Ye

#

Aye last error was half an hour ago 🥳

vestal ibex
#

Good good
If you keep having issues booting you can always boot to recovery media and rebuild the boot and EFI partitions

spice beacon
#

But thanks

#

Looks okay I'm gonna leave it and pray while i go to sleep

vestal ibex
#

Ah ok, seems like you've done everything right so far

#

Good luck 🤞

spice beacon
#

Thanks

#

Like if this corrupts I'm debating if my ram has either died somehow or my sn550 was faulty as i got it about 2 months ago and it just took 2 months to start corrupting lol

vestal ibex
#

Doubtful it's the memory by now so more likely a faulty drive imo

spice beacon
#

Yeah that's what i was thinking

#

Thanks for the advice and reassurance anyway

#

Time to re macrium my drive just incase the one i did before was corrupt(probs was)

#

yo @vestal ibex this just looks like a regular windows warning right?

vestal ibex
#

Your User ID is exposed

#

But yes that looks like a normal thing

spice beacon
vestal ibex
#

I know, event viewer can blow simple common errors out of proportion

spice beacon
#

Okay thanks

have also gotten this error, not much info on it online

#

just regular windows error jargon again?

vestal ibex
#

That's the backup service, there's not a lot on drive roots that needs to be backed up

spice beacon
#

Ahh so it's fine okay Thanks

crisp spire
#

@spice beacon

#

run TM5 and memtest

#

and ye might need to pick up new wam

spice beacon
#

Sfc came back all good

crisp spire
#

Run tm5 and windows testmem feature

spice beacon
#

Okey

#

How does one run windows test mem

crisp spire
crisp spire
spice beacon
crisp spire
spice beacon
crisp spire
#

never needed to

#

but yeah win mem test is pre boot so u cant use pc at all during it

spice beacon
#

Rip

spice beacon
crisp spire
spice beacon
#

Ugh

#

Okay

#

Like the blue screen on restart thing is fixed tho, i just updated windows before putting tm5 on and it didn't 💩 itself trying to boot

spice beacon
#

@crisp spire it's still on cycle 1 after 1.5 hrs ssadge

crisp spire
#

check task manager

spice beacon
crisp spire
#

Yep thought so

#

close app and start it again

spice beacon
#

Uh i did and it's only using 1gb

#

Am i doing something wrong in setup?

#

Now it's working

#

Weird the shortcut thing it makes isn't testing

crisp spire
spice beacon
spice beacon
#

If there where errors i would have stopped it and cried already

crisp spire
#

run mem test after this

spice beacon
#

Aye aye capin

spice beacon
#

@crisp spire finished tm5 no error

crisp spire
spice beacon
crisp spire
#

Ahhh

#

Have u used the OC profile after fresh install?

spice beacon
crisp spire
#

And then xmp only gang

spice beacon
#

I reinstalled with keep files

#

And it been fixed since

crisp spire
#

Nice

#

Not as borked as last time

spice beacon
# crisp spire Nice

Nope it's running well so far, maybe I'll try oc after exams for the fun of it when i get some time but I'll be only running on test image for the moment lol

ivory rover
#

Anyone know what's happening

#

All I did was restart my pc

#

And it keeps flickering the task bar

#

The cursor has the loading wheel next to it but it's not constant

#

Pain

#

Everytime I restart it does the same thing

vestal ibex
#

Boot to safe mode if you can, then run DDU and wipe out the drivers

ivory rover
#

How do I boot to safe mode again

vestal ibex
#

You can trick it into thinking it's failing to boot by shutting it off during startup a few times

ivory rover
#

Alright I'll try that

vestal ibex
#

If it still has issues in safe mode then it's some sort of hardware issue, possibly a connection or cable

ivory rover
#

It's fixed itself

#

After trying to get it into safe mode

#

Not completely tho

vestal ibex
#

Well you can clean install the drivers still

ivory rover
#

It's just not flickering anymore

#

Like my gpu drivers?

vestal ibex
#

Yes it's probably the drivers

ivory rover
#

I gotta be honest I don't think it's a gpu problem

#

Like nothing on my screen is loading

#

Like the home screen is there

#

But the applications aren't

#

And it's still running my other screen

vestal ibex
#

The GPU has to render everything on the screen, so if it has problems it can appear that way

#

You could also try another video cable and port

ivory rover
#

Normally when the drivers fail it won't allow me to go into sleep mode or keep the other screen running

#

And when I hover over the task bar it brings up the loading cursor

#

And I can't open up any applications

#

At allll

#

So even if I was able to download ddu I wouldn't be able to open it up

vestal ibex
#

It would run in safe mode best anyway

ivory rover
#

Let's me open chrome lmao

vestal ibex
#

If you're able to open the start menu you can hold shift and click restart, that'll bring up the advanced restart menu where you can select safe mode

ivory rover
#

It won't let me

#

As soon as I click the home button

#

It's begins to poop itself

vestal ibex
#

You can try the trick I said before with shutting it off during boot to get to the same menu

ivory rover
#

I was but never pulled it up

vestal ibex
#

It usually takes about 3-5 tries

ivory rover
#

Not working peeposad

vestal ibex
#

Do you see the Windows logo when it boots up?

vestal ibex
#

The second that comes on the screen hit the reset button

vestal ibex
#

Could be a big F too yeah, hoping it's just the drivers and not the GPU itself

ivory rover
#

Frfr

shadow jay
#

i hope it works

#

Black screen and flickering taskbar with mouse pointer with loading blue circle

#

is very very common

#

i mean if u google it

#

tons of result

vestal ibex
#

Still need to get into safe mode to do that

shadow jay
#

true

#

how about recalibrate the displays

vestal ibex
#

"Technically" you can run it from install media but there's a lot more switches to pass

shadow jay
#

maybe when it resets

#

it doesnt know what to do xD

#

just one monitor first

ivory rover
#

So

#

Turn it off

#

Turn it on

#

Then hit the restart button?

vestal ibex
#

When the Windows logo comes up, yes

ivory rover
#

Not the ps

#

Just the restart

#

Correct?

vestal ibex
#

No just the reset button will work

#

Or holding the power button in a pinch

ivory rover
#

Cant get to it

vestal ibex
#

Start menu doesn't come up

shadow jay
#

ouchy

#

F

#

xD

ivory rover
#

Fr

#

Pains me fr

shadow jay
#

how about when u see a windows logon?

vestal ibex
#

I'm curious now though if Win+R will load the run dialog

shadow jay
#

do you set password on it?

ivory rover
#

My windows logo never pops up either

#

Yes it had a pw

shadow jay
#

it same procedure if u see a windows logon

ivory rover
#

*has

shadow jay
#

hold shift then press restart

ivory rover
#

It's DOING IT

#

FINALLY

ivory rover
#

I think

shadow jay
#

f

ivory rover
#

Not the screen is just black

#

F

#

*now

vestal ibex
#

Success would be a blue screen in this case...

ivory rover
#

Ikr

#

MY CURSOR WORKS THO

#

PAIN

#

Imma try it again

vestal ibex
#

Reset it again and do what Tomie said

ivory rover
#

Repeat the steps

vestal ibex
#

On the login screen find the power icon, hit it, hold shift and click restart

shadow jay
ivory rover
#

What'd sfc

#

*what's

vestal ibex
#

We can do both ddu and sfc to be safe

#

System File Checker

#

DDU is Display Driver Uninstaller

ivory rover
#

O

#

Both

#

Yes

#

If yall had to buy a new gpu

#

Which would it be

vestal ibex
#

The one I can buy at a reasonable price 🥲

ivory rover
#

So none

#

Okay

#

Moving on

#

3060ti is looking nice

vestal ibex
#

That's the worst case and unlikely tbh

shadow jay
#

wait can u access task manager on the screen?

#

like ctrl alt delete

ivory rover
#

Nope

shadow jay
#

or it hangs just hang

#

sad

ivory rover
#

My screen just goes black everytime I try and open safe mode

#

WTF

vestal ibex
#

Try just booting normally and getting to the login screen

ivory rover
#

Yes

shadow jay
#

i dont know if safemode can do multi monitor

#

it skips lot of drivers

#

xD

#

just to load into basic one

ivory rover
#

Lemme unplug it then

shadow jay
#

can u remove all the screens

#

keep 1

#

for now

ivory rover
#

Keeping the poopy one

shadow jay
#

do you have 🙂 bootable usb

#

do you know basic making usb a first boot order?

ivory rover
#

Nothing still

#

And I don't believe I have the one with windows on it currently

shadow jay
#

sad

#

u have laptop?

ivory rover
#

No but I have another pc

shadow jay
#

cool

ivory rover
#

Luckily I actually have it on hand

#

Brb

shadow jay
#

thats very handy

#

wanna try to make bootable usb?

#

using rofus

#

rufus*

#

i think u know how to make one.. i bet on that

vestal ibex
#

If they had a Windows USB previously that's a safe bet

shadow jay
#

true

#

just usb boot.. and when windows installer comes up.. press next.. then look below.. press "repair your computer"

#

thats it

#

recovery mode

vestal ibex
#

I'm off to bed though, good luck

shadow jay
#

4pm here XD so there might be night

vestal ibex
#

And remember the extra switches for offline sfc, you need to mount the boot partition and set it as /offbootdir and set the /offwindir

shadow jay
#

wont reset the bios right

#

need to hold atleast 30 sec

#

similar procedure. or it resets xD automatically

vestal ibex
#

A few seconds is enough to corrupt the bios

#

And my manual even says 10 seconds lol

shadow jay
#

wanna try to experiment

#

xD

#

if only 1 click is required

vestal ibex
#

Maybe if I had a test board lol

#

Same effect can be achieved with the reset button on my board too

ivory rover
#

IT AIN'T WORKING 😭

shadow jay
ivory rover
#

The other pc KEKW

shadow jay
#

sheesh

#

hahaha

ivory rover
#

It's finally booting up

shadow jay
#

shadow jay
#

ivory rover
#

Okay thanks

#

Seated a new gpu

#

Gonna see if it's a gpu thing

#

I'll try Rufus in a bit

#

IT'S A DRIVER THING

#

Wtf

#

Everything loaded immediately

#

@shadow jay

#

i think all that needed to happen was that it needed to be reseated

shadow jay
#

sheesh

#

that save us a time

ivory rover
#

fr

#

so glad i got my old pc still around bruh

#

life saver

#

Imma go ahead and install new drivers anyway

#

so much for WDDM :P, you know, the thing that every gpu supports

analog jackal
#

Is this issue due to virtual memory? I changed it but no changes in script

#

Using a older bios because the newer bios were not working

What card so you have?

#

Or cards I guess

shadow jay
#

its the dx 12 ultimate i think

#

i dont have that xD

#

dx12 only

Ehh you shouldn't have to, if you restart should bring to an option where you can choose os

spice beacon
cinder mauve
#

Oh yes

dense mirage
#

Probably could do it, but you would need to do some finicky stuff. If you're use arch though you should be experienced enough to pull it off

cedar venture
#

anyone knows a good software to update all the drivers?, without going one by one

dense mirage
#

The windows driver manager

tired orchid
#

The Windows Driver Manager sucks at finding fully up-to-date drivers.

cedar venture
#

sad

#

Ok

#

Thanks

cinder mauve
#

wont be most reliable for updated ones but you'll still have drivers for everything

vestal ibex
#

Eeehhhhhhh
Mostly. Things like graphics drivers need to be done manually or you get some basic driver with godawful performance.

wraith timber
#

sometimes I manually update drivers, but when winupdate works I just do that and then check for a new version as it's often the most reliable thing for fringe drivers

shadow jay
#

u get intel basic display driver

#

xD

#

fun

#

draging windows go x2

#

or trails

wraith timber

windows basic display adapter

works on pretty much any gpu

to get you to the driver installation

can downgrade to the windows update driver for your specific gpu if a driver is being bonky

Hey can someone helps me

#

So I downloaded a texture pack from a 30k sub yt and now it says my pc has a virus but i think it just telling me that so I can pay for the site

vestal ibex
#

What exactly is giving you a virus warning? Lots of youtube videos have scam/bad links. If it's your antivirus popping up and telling you that, stay away. If it's the browser, probably avoid it still but not likely any real damage.

west basalt
#

A site called McAfee

vestal ibex
#

Scam, run fast and far

west basalt

Ok so I don't have a virus

#

???

No but if you're concerned you can clean your browser cache, that wipes out the most common stuff

vestal ibex
# sudden yacht Does anyone know how to fix this

Just let it work. If it still isn't restarting after about an hour, shut it off and when you boot it back up it'll either try again or you can run system restore to revert the update yourself.

For most people it's 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 to login to your router

Put that into your web address on your browser
