@Shonk I don't think checking the resistance from VIN to ground will give useful results as a lot of the VRM are connected in parallel through capacitors. I suspect the issue is identical to the one I had, can you check continuity between VIN and SW on the IR3553s? If they are shorted then...

Hi Shonk, I went through the same thing with a Sapphire 390x tri-x, it's a shame to see Sapphire was still cutting the same corners on the next generation of the card. My card got RMA'ed 4 times for the same issue before the warranty expired. The RMA got refused when it happened a 5th time...

the motherboard ports have fuses, you need to disconnect the power completely (unplug from wall socket), hold power switch for 30s or so to try and drain as much power as possible and then leave the computer disconnected from the mains for an hour or so. If this doesn't work then try the same...

I was in a similar situation with an old laptop, the drive in mine managed about 25MB/s but was far slower than that for random access. I had some success using a SSD in that it that it benchmarked at ~100MB/s. In the end it was not worth it though as the system only had a single core CPU and it...

I tested my evo again yesterday to see how it was going, result was a perfect line at max speed, so the restoration fix seems to be working ok for me. I ran the performance fix as soon as it came out so it has had time to degrade again if it was going to.

Having people work for nothing for the council is no different to having people working for nothing for a business, there will still be someone higher up the food chain that will be making extra profit from not properly employing people on adequate wages. Army training would work much better as...

it might be the bearing, you can get replacement fans from ebay, but you could also try:

8 Pack branded smoke generator in a box?

I upgraded to one recently too as my 2407wfp died and I wasn't sure how long it would take to repair. I only have the 2407wfp to compare it to though :( Some positives: coating is great, no reflection but at the same time it looks perfectly smooth (the coating on my 2407 looks quite dirty in...

the card reader will use one of the usb2 headers so check to make sure both of them are connected properly.

I went with the Dell UltraSharp U2715H 27" in the end. A bit out of my price range, but I have been happy with my old dell and their support does actually seem to be quite good. I managed to find a guy in the USA who sells repaired power boards for the 2407wfp, so I have also gone down this...

The most I can afford at the moment is £300 so the Samsung looks interesting.

I have had this monitor for a good 8 years, I am going to try and repair it, but in the meantime I need a replacement. There are so many to pick from these days but I could do with something which fits these specs if possible: 1920x1200 res Good viewing angle Very good colour accuracy Not...

I have it set to 4gb on my ssd, if i set it to automatic then it jumps up to 60GB.

22TB written on my 830, still showing as good.

any x58 boards with usb3/sata3 are just using addon chips, you can get similar performance from buying a pci-e card with usb3/sata3 on it. No way to get PCIe 3.0 with x58 im afraid.

If you are sure its a driver then make a restore point and then go through the device manager disabling one driver at a time until the memory gets freed up.

Does switching to a classic windows theme (disabling aero) fix it? If it does then it could be video card driver related.

It might be that you are trying to use too many volts, I had a similar issue with a 920 where I assumed I could just keep increasing the volts to gain stability as long as the temperatures were fine, but this turned out not to be the case and dropping my vcore by 0.05V actually let me OC further.

I had a similar issue some time ago, but the internet connection stayed working while the phone was dead (Fibre instead of ADSL). It took about 3 months for the fault to be found and it turned out to be a damaged cable at the exchange. It's BT who is at fault with these kind of issues, sky is...
