Will a wireless adapter for my desktop slow down speed, and if not what kind should I get?

>>59008023
be more specific

When I turn on my computer, the fans spin up for a couple seconds and then it shuts off. If I repeat this several times (20 or so, varies greatly) it will boot ok and stay on indefinitely.

This problem has appeared every winter and disappeared every summer for a few years.

This time, once it manages to boot, it does not stay on indefinitely. It shuts off within a minute or two. Sometimes it gets to the desktop and I can use it for a few seconds, sometimes it shuts down before outputting any video.

Having an Ethernet connector is much faster, you also tend to get priority on your network.

So I have a mouse (G400s if it matters) that my cat chewed on a year ago that I tied together with heatshrink over it. Today I thought that I'd improve it by splicing it together with butt connectors since the old job was wearing out. When I got done, it would supply power, but it wouldn't work. So I redid it, but it still won't work.

What did I do wrong? I'm absolutely sure that all of the wires have good connections.

is if this Ryzen thing is pretty gude im going to upgrade and pass along my 7700k to my partner

right now theyre using a core 2 quad and an old amd 4850...

would it be worth keeping the 4850 or can i just use igpu at that point?

I fucked up /g/. I used EaseUS Partition Master to convert my HDD from MBR to GPT. Now when I boot it brings me to a screen that says
"BootDevice Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk.
Hard Disk - (3F0)
F2 System Diagnostics
For more information, please visit: www.hp.com\go\techcenter\startup"
If I press F2 it reboots and I can push ESC for Startup Menu. In Startup Menu I get
"F1 System Information

F9 Boot Device Options
F10 BIOS Setup
ENTER - Continue Startup"
I can't find a way anywhere to do anything besides test hardware. Is there any way to get back into uefi/bios?

if you only look at the synthetic ones, sure, but that would make you a retard.

>powerusage, noise and shit are also things
obviously the iGPU will use less power and be quieter than a several year old GPU, mr herpa derpa

btw the 6850 is much faster than integrated.

I want to passthrough a GTX 460 to a OVMF Qemu VM running Windows 10.

The GTX 460 doesn't support UEFI, yet a program GOPupd on the win-raid forums claims to update the firmware.

When using this fimrware and QEMU the VM doesn't even boot to OVMF and 1 core is maxed out...

Any idea?

Alright, here is the deal.

Is it possible for a filesystem on a disk to get corrupted beyond software repair (only solution is formatting)?

the SMART status of the disk returns an OK but the fs got corrupted and was repaired by the OS

The disk was accessible at one point but it's accessible again after the repair (albeit unstable)

I thought an fsck / whatever Winshit uses was an absolute fix for corruption

fsck is just a consistency check. it doesn't attempt to check the contents of a regular file's data blocks, because it would have no idea what data is correct and what data isn't. if it's the data that's corrupted rather than the file system then fsck won't do anything.

I had a problem with my laptop and got frustrated after several days of trying to solve it myself so I sent it in to this computer repair place my mom uses. He couldn't fix it and when I got it back the CPU is slow as hell and it lags when playing 1080p video. What might be causing the slowdown? How do I fix the damage he did?

>>59009173
i had a problem like that a few weeks ago. it was the psu. my computer would just restart at random, no consistency to it. there was pretty much no log other than "windows shut down unexpectedly" (which just notifies that it happened, you can't get any relevant info from it). i got a new psu and it completely stopped.

>>59009686
yes. say hi to jewgle

>>59009776
bring it back and tell that retard to fix it

>>59009752
no, the data's integrity is still in check as far as I know. I don't care because it's backed up but I just want to get a verdict on what's happening with the drive.

the computer will crash even after the OS attempted to fix the filesystem

sfc /scannow returns no problems so it must be repairing itself and corrupting right after

At this point I have a feeling it's the hardware that's failing

>>59009686
It's true that it's possible to do it for specific users. Mass surveillance is basically impossible in any form because of the storage requirements though. Even Google doesn't have the hardware power to add an entry to a database every time anyone posts anything on any website and then use that data to draw conclusions every time they use a Google service. Even if it was technically possible it wouldn't be in Google's best interests - adwords has been basically perfect using only trivial personal data for years now. They don't need to read your emails or 4chan posts, your Google search history is enough for tailored advertising.

I bet that they give (or more likely sell) permission to route data for certain individuals through surveillance agencies though. There's probably a list of a few thousand suspect people who have everything about them monitored through techniques like that. And if you think recaptcha is scary, think about the Facebook like button - you don't even have to click it for it to give away information about you, since having it embedded in a page will require a request to Facebook's servers.

When dowloading only certain files of a torrent is it normal to have a small surplus of files? I mean if im not mistaken they're often divided by "block" of certain size rather than by files, so due to overlap in files/blocks I should end with slightly more files than I asked for right? Or not?

I know you can use -t to set a new length, but need a way to parse out the original file's length, subtract x seconds, then set that as the new length for the output. I've got 100+ videos across 8 folders/subfolders, and would rather not have to manually check each one's length.

>>59011196
Source?

>>59010847
It cant run at 6000Mhz, it is effective for 6000MHz.

It can run at 1.3-1.5 tops before it starts being unstable.

>>59011235
>it is effective for 6000MHz.
How does that work? Also what would be the best way of finding out at what frequency it performs best at? Multiple furmark runs at 480p?

Once you make a torrent with mktorrent how do you get it into a client to seed? You can't just drag and drop because it has nowhere to download from

>>59011328
Because that is how GDDR5, quad pumping is the correct term for what you are wondering.

To leave it simple, your card has 4 VRAM chips on it, every one working at 1.5Ghz, they all can manage stuff at the same time so that would make it 6000MHz.

I've had this before. I forget exactly what the problem was but the bottom line is Window's File System is fucked.

Anyway, go into Command Prompt, cd to the directory, type dir /x. You'll see an alternate name for the file, something like FILENAM~1.EXT. Delete using that alternate name

I am trying to dual boot Mint and Windows 10 on a laptop, but when I install it I can't get the GRUB loader to work. My disk is GPT. In my boot options I can only boot from USB with BIOS, I can't boot from USB with UEFI. Does anyone have any idea why I can't get the GRUB loader to work? I think it has to do with GPTvsMBR because this disc was MBR until I used EaseUS to change it. When I try to use boot repair on a live usb I get an error saying to run the usb in UEFI.

>>59011796
Make your bootable USB with GPT instead MBR.

Rufus should be able to do it.

>>59011937
Not anymore, IIRC. I think they removed the ability to give it away because people were selling them. Not that I agree with it.

Noticed my fans were a bit louder than usual, speccy suddenly says my mobo is 74c and my cpu is 50c. Only thing I had open was cs:go.

>Close cs:go
>temps instantly go down to 27c cpu and 29c mobo

Is speccy just reading wrong? Theres no way the temps dropped that fast.

CS:GO is heavy on the CPU, always has been. And if your motherboard was 74c you have a big problem or a defective sensor.

At worst, I see myself maybe needing a better cooler. At best its probably like you said, defective sensor.

>>59012111
I previously made a bootable usb with MBR and I was able to boot in and install, but afterwards I can't get the GRUB loader to load. I think it is because it was an MBR bootable usb but a GPT disc. Now that it's a GPT bootable usb so idk what's wrong.

Why do you need this if you're a hobbyist? Most professional photographers don't even need these. And do you have a wide color gamut monitor that allows you to change the color temperature and disable any power saving auto adjustment?

Once you have your workflow down, and use the same printer/print service, then there isn't generally any deviation. So, you know what output those settings create for Adobe and sRGB color spaces. And you don't need to calibrate your monitor if you're outputting mostly sRGB, because you cannot calibrate everyone else's monitors or printers. Most consumers printing at home and consumer photo print services are using software/drivers that are doing post processing as well - you just have no control at that point.

The only point in having this tool is if you are frequently outputting from new camera sources (varying workflows) and your photos are being sent to large scale print/publishing where you would actually having some control over the final output and what the consumer sees.

How much should i pay for a universal charger?

I repair computers and sometimes i need different chargers but i only have spare HP chargers around and buying one for all brands would be expensive.

The USB 3.0 ports on the front of my Corsair 400R case behave oddly. They have no problem with certain devices while with other they either don't recognise them or get stuck in a connected-unconnected loop. I've tried Intel's chooser drivers and my manufacturer's drivers, but they don't solve anything. What are my options now to see what the fault is?

Programming question.

I'm writing some code that looks at the data of an online game's market and makes predictions of future trends. I've got a load of insightful methods such as "If Item1 goes up in price for 2 days, how often does Item2 go up after that?"Almost all of these methods require me to loop through these items' data.

If I added a huge number of variables and I could deal with the complexity, I could combine all of these methods into one. Meaning I'd only have to loop through all the items' data once. By the time I was at the end, I'm sure I wouldn't be able to read it from top to bottom and make any sense of it, but the question is...

Would this be more computationally efficient?

I accidentally windows 10 how do I delete it from existence? I tried and it keeps giving me permission errors.

>>59012394
Brand doesn't matter, only voltage and connector, and having enough amps. Too many amps isn't a problem.

>>59012433
It would probably be slightly more efficient, but not massively. It would still be O(n) if I'm not mistaken.

>>59012453
But really, prices are so weird here in my country i have no idea how much they actually cost.

>>59012165
Speccy was showing a CPU temp and a mini temp.

Cleaned the case up and the fans. Plugged psu back in and booted to Immediately blue screen. bios says my CPU is 80c.

The fan was running when it was plugged in. Maybe I need to redo my thermal paste? It's been at least 6 months.

In the long run, what would be the best way to store my data? Adding more hard drives to my computer and also getting high-capacity external drives, or building a NAS?

If your desktop will already be on 24/7 for other stuff, it can be configured to be accessible from your other devices. For anything that matters (not just mass media there's millions of copies of already) you should have at least three copies, on three separate devices, and one offsite if you can.

What usually kills battery life when idling is Services (i.e. background processes) accessing the network. Do a little research about the Services you have running and see if any of them of options to turn off use of the network when the device is idle. Though, honestly, only a disgustingly few number of them will.

My multi-monitor setup just suddenly stopped working. Now I can only 2 out of 3 monitors to work. The DisplayPort suddenly doesn't want to work. I did a clean install of my nVidia drivers and that got the DVI and HDMI cables to work. I don't get it.

Pick whatever you want. They're all basically different GUIs for the same shit.

/g/, I did something unimaginably stupid.

I deleted one of my GPG signing keys, which I thought I had no use for, but which I was using for my wallet.

I know the the password for the wallet, but without that key I'm fucked, aren't I?

Anyway, I'm on a btrfs volume, so do I have a chance to rollback some shit?

I'm freaking out here.

I have a Dell Gaming S2417DG YNY1D monitor for my pc and I love it. I don't have a TV or anything because I just use my pc. I wanted to hook in a ps4 to this monitor via HDMI and use the ps4 that way but I dont get any audio. Ive messed with all the settings I can find in the ps4 but don't know why it won't get audio.

1. Why no audio?
2. Easiest way to get audio?


Appreciate any help I feel dumb trying to figure this out

y key not committed and backed up all over?

>>59015456
You can always try recovery software. Although if you've booted to or written on the volume at all since then, your odds aren't good

>>59008238
I had this issue. Check if the ATX power connector is firmly in place. It felt fine to me, but I wiggled it and pushed it hard and the problem hasn't happened again. Good luck.

>>59015499

>>59015522
The really funny thing here is that the password for my backup volume was on that wallet. So I'm screwed in every way possible. I won't even have root access on my server anymore. I'm completely fucked. Well, I do have the sudo password because I stored that insecurely in a script, so I might be saved by the one thing I did wrong.

>>59015577
You should just use cloud services since you're dum

>>59015481
Nevermind I thought it had speakers but I guess it doesn't ignore me I am retarded.

>>59015583
If all I needed was the password to decrypt I'd still be good. Guess my main mistake was going for GPG for encrypting my wallet.

>>59015600
>>59015577
>>59015456
It's actually not that bad. Most of my passwords were stored on the browser. I've only lost root on my servers (still have sudo on the one), which means I didn't really lose too much.

Posted this in fglt, thought maybe its better suited for sqt:

I tried to install dualboot Linux on my UEFI laptop. After installing with the EFI partition mounted to /boot, it rebooted and now only shows the HP logo.
It responds to nothing, external usbs/drivers, any of the keys that normally works, nothing

Any ideas if this can be fixed /g/? Some kind of hard reset?

A few stupid questions about RAM...

1. Can use DDR2 on DDR3?
2. When using RAMs of different clock speed, will it use the lower speed?

>>59016472
no, yes

>>59016496
What about RAM of different sizes?
Like one is 4GB and the other is 8GB.
Will it cause issues?

>>59016516
no

>>59016472
1. no
2. yes

I miss Kanako.

how do i get a non oem key (which should be transferable) to not be attached to my hotmail account? i wanted to test one so did an install of windows 10 pro (key was 7 pro but it upgrades fine) and then unactivated and gave to a friend for his build, but it says i need to be signed in on his pc for it to work. should i just call microsoft and bitch till they fix it or is there an actual way?

Could I get V& by The Man for using Soulseek? Because isn't it just the same thing as P2P?

What's the best place to get a new office chair? I want to sit in one first, of course. I have a Staples, Office Max, and Office Depot in a half-hour radius of me. I think Staples does price matching if I find it online on Amazon or some shit, but I don't know if they have a full selection of quality chairs.

Is a flash drive OK to make a swap partition on? I hear all this talk about SSDs degrading faster with swap partitions and want to know if it extends to flash drives.

of course
in fact it is even worse

windows wont even let you do it

About to pull the trigger on a GTX1060. Is it worth the extra $50 to get the 6GB version? I mostly play fighting games and racing games. The most demanding games I'll play this year are probably Tekken 7 and Dirt 4.

I use flud, dunno if it's botnet and don't care, ymmv

>>59018562
SSDs degrading is bullshit. How long you have the drive matters more than how much you write to it. You could host servers off of modern SSDs and not wear them out.

>>59018652
3gb version is ass. If you can't afford the 6gb, then go with the 480.

>>59018652
probably not, there'd be hardly any difference for just fighting and racing games

The only thing you can do with a flash drive is readyboost

>>59018713
Swap != ReadyBoost.
Swap is mimicing RAM, ReadyBoost is mimicing a slower HDD (so it's basically using your flash drive as a mini-SSD)

I have my taskbar set to auto-hide, but when I pull something in full-screen, like a youtube video or Discord, or a video game, and then exit the full screen application the taskbar is then hidden behind everything. I can't move my mouse to the bottom of my screen to pull the taskbar back up anymore. The only fix is to minimize the application and click on my desktop or the task bar to bring it back to the front.

How the fuck do I fix this? It's been nearly a year and I can't figure it out.

Before SSD's became affordable for large capacities, people used SSD's to cache standard HDD's.

I want to do this, but using RAM to cache an SSD instead. I. E. 32GB of RAM, and 20GB of that used as cache for an SSD to speed up loading times for most used programs. Is this possible, and how would I do it?

>>59018794
RAMdisk with whatever people used to make SSDs cache for HDDs

I'm working with wpf in C#

I'm trying to bring information from one window to a second window using dependency properties. In the first window, I use these lines of code to start up the second window (first three lines are properties). This works, and allows me to access the dependency properties for bindings and such in the xaml of the second window.

However, my issue is that I don't know how to get the dependency properties in the code behind of the second window. Considering I get the proper values in my xaml I assume there must be a way to access them in the code behind, but I can't seem to figure it out

Operating systems already leave program files in otherwise unused RAM. You don't need to do anything unless you reboot your PC frequently. Stop making a means into an end and do stuff.
