/sqt/ stupid questions thread

I once had a Razer Deathadder 2013 that I RMA'd in the summer of 2015. They no longer made the Deathadder 2013, so I was shipped a Deathadder Chroma. Can I RMA this Deathadder Chroma? Or is it no longer covered under any kind of warranty?

reposting my question from old thread:
>>57759186

>>57759252
where did you buy it? did the chroma come with a warranty? id contact the place you bought it from and ask

is there a windows 7 equivalent of outlook express?

what's the best free program for installing pirated downloaded disc games?

>>57759342
Daemontools

>>57759304
I bought the 2013 from Best Buy. It stopped working so I just contacted Razer and they offered to replace it. I just don't know whether the Chroma is under the 2013's warranty, if it's got its own warranty, or if it just doesn't come with one.

>>57759380
check the back of it. if it has pins, see if they're bent. if it has little plates, see if they're dirty.
otherwise it should be fine. best way to find out is pop it in a rig.

>>57759423
Its still inside its box, never took it out.

>>57759436
then unless you chucked it at a wall or your desk was flooded recently, it should be absolutely fine

How the fuck do I move just the OS to my new SSD?

Every tutorial I find out there just clones the entire hdd; I just want the OS.

>>57759695
Fresh install and copy over user files

>>57759695
Install it on the SSD; then change boot in the bios to SSD, all your files will still be there.

>>57759723
>Copy over user files

So you mean do a fresh install on my SSD and then copy the user files from my SSD to the HDD?

Please talk to me like I'm retarded.

>>57759734
I don't have the OS on a disk; I ordered it directly through the windows store.

Do I just redownload the OS to the SSD? Windows 10 is suppose to be keyless, I assume it will just work.

Seconding this. I don't understand. How do I install my W10 to a new SSD in the first place?

>>57760211
I'm assuming from the information (or lack thereof) from >>57759786 gave is that we should just do a fresh install from a flash drive, set the SSD to the main boot drive, and then drag the user files from the HDD.

I'm installing the OS on my SSD right now; I'll let you know if I fuck it up.

>>57760272
Thanks. Lemme know step by step too if you do anything differently.

I don't even know if I still have my old flash drive around...

just installed w10 on a pc that isnt exactly the fastest thing on earth. is there a guide to get rid of any unnecessary shit from hogging mem and processing speed up?

>>57759758
>>57760211
The key is tied to your motherboard, just download an image, install it to the SSD, boot it and it should reactivate on its own without a problem. Then obviously just copy all your files and such from the HDD and format it

>>57760306
Sweet, that's what I gathered but wasn't too sure.

Thanks anon

>>57760304
Windows 7 Home Premium or if you really want W10, get Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB.

>>57760331
No problem anon, if it won't reactivate contact Microsoft and tell them you've had a drive change as the last one failed then they'll reactivate it. Same goes when you change your motherboard

so I'm taking this, which is W10. installing it on my new SSD, then how am I moving my old ssd stuff over?

>>57760436
You're on the right track but you need the W10 one if you want to install W10, just google Windows 10 Download Tool or Windows 10 Media Creation Tool and it's at the top.

For transferring your old stuff, if you have a spare external HDD big enough, copy all of your stuff over and format your old one, if not. Keep it connected to the system as normal but make the new SSD the boot drive, install Windows and then it will mount the old SSD as a seperate drive so you can transfer your stuff

>>57760503
I follow you up until the "then it will mount the old ssd as a separate drive so you can transfer your stuff".

Maybe it's because I'm tired, maybe cause I'm dumb, maybe both, but I don't know what that means.

>>57760544
Once you're booted, it should already be listed as the D or E drive

>>57760557
but how do I move my stuff over to the new install? I imagine I'll have to redo all my settings? Get rid of corona or whatever the fuck that dumb bitch's name is, redo my display settings and all that?

heyas! what are these SSD's i've seen that look like they plug into a PCIe slot? are they better than normal SSD's floating around?

My computer has a strange issue. The computer will run fine until everything locks up. However it's not normal freezing. I can move my mouse around and I can even close/work programs. However I can't open any new ones and eventually the program that do work freeze until finally I can't use explorer.exe and have to restart. Could this be a hardware issue or is my windows 7 corrupted or something?

>>57760605
PCIe SSDs are a thing
PCI is much faster than SATA so you can get better performance, but for most people SATA SSDs are so fast they wouldn't notice a difference between them.

Hey guys,

I have a class that requires a database presentation. Anyway, I have done an internship as an apprentice DBA, and relational databases kind of now bore me to death, and I thought, what better time than now to learn about NoSQL?

Anyway, I was looking at making a NoSQL database, but I havent a fucking clue where to start.

Anyone ever just make a nosql database just to make one? if so, what did you do? I cant seem to find shit for project ideas on google, so yall might know more.

Probably just going to use MongoDB or CouchDB becaue of the amount of documentation online for these two.

At the same time, if I hold down or up to scroll it is very slow and choppy, as if I'm slowly hitting the key again and again instead of just holding it down.

I'm running Windows 10. I didn't mess with any keyboard settings at all recently. Any idea what the issue could be?

Plugging my gpu into my power supply. One of the cables has 2 6+2 connectors on it. Can I use that to make the connection with one cable? Will it have enough power doing this with one cord?

As in I have 3 pcie cords from my power supply. 2 have 1 connection of 6+2 on the end and the third has two. Also the end that plugs into the power supply differs. Of the ones that have a single connection they have 6 slot with connections and 2 empty. The one with two connections has 7 slots with connectors in them and 1 empty.

My gpu have 8 and 6 connectors side by side btw.

Thanks, just bought the regular cat6. I'm planning to do a fresh reinstall of Windows onto the SSD instead of cloning the whole thing over, since I'm buying an SSD for the OS and HDD for the rest. Will there be any licensing problems with just reinstalling and reactivating with my Windows account? The current version of Windows I have came with my laptop.

>>57761039

Also, I already tried removing the driver and letting Windows re-install it, but the problem persists.

>>57760733
>>57761075

Cat6 probably isnt important as cat5 can get near gigabit on its own but whatever.

Shielded cat 6 has a metal sleave build in that needs to be connected to a shielded jack on the other end. It needs to be grounded and is really only needed if you are running cable next to power lines. I ran it under ground parallel to power lines last year outside at the place I work and that shielding saves it from the magnetic field of the other cable.

Sound like you dont have that issue.

Also for cloning your harddrive you can learn to use dd and be careful you dont screw it up and wipe your drive.

Or I have one of those hot swap external drive bays. They are a plastic box that sits on the desk and plugs in through usb. it has two slots on the tops for 5.25 or 3.5 or whatever drives. I can put two drives in there hit the button and the first drive will clone over the second.

Anybody else is looking so much at the msdn programming reference while programming on Windows or the linux man pages while programming C or C++ on Linux?

>>57761260

You can clone a drive onto a new one but if you have changed the mother board windows will shit itself in my experience so you need a new install.

Basically if you are just switching hard drives its ok but if the motherboard changed itll probably fail.

>>57761239

He wonders why he can't get a job above minimum wage. anyway, I'll fuck off. (learn MVC faggot)

>>57761280
>>57761334
You can clone SSDs, make sure your cloning program supports trim. I like clonezilla.

You can change motherboards if you do a sysprep beforehand, and inject the AHCI driver via a windows cd. It is a pain in the ass but I've done it before for a retard driving a server into the ground. You can also set the chipset to IDE mode before you do this, then install the new AHCI driver in windows.

>>57761334

No cloning is deeper then format the format goes with it.

You can use a linux live cd to boot a computer and copy between the two with the dd command. Be careful though dd has the nick name disk destroyer. Because if you type the drives in the wrong order youll copy the blank drive onto the full one. If thats sort of beyond you there is probably windows software but idk how you would do it since the drive you want to copy is your windows drive and it has to be running to use the software.

But yes you want to clone the drive it should work if you get a method going.

>>57759304
send help. anyone have any idea? does installing new ram do anything to the bios? why would it reset the overclock on my cpu

>>57761372

You cpu has lanes on it more memory means more lanes used. Usually more memory makes it unstable easier and you need to do shit like give more power to the north bridge to stabilize.

From the sound of things your motherboard sees more ram and just decided to say no to the old overclock because it was made for a less ram scenario. Its likely that it wont take an old overclock in the new more ram system and youll have to redo it.

Just hit defaults to reset the overclock to stock. Figure out how to overclock again if you care.

>>57761231

http://www.dell.com/en-us/member/shop/dell-24-gaming-monitor-s2417dg/apd/210-aizs/monitors-flat-panel-widescreen/

I don't care about the "gaming" marketing term, but I've been looking for a reasonably priced 1080p 144Hz monitor. This looks like it fits the bill at a decent price, and it's 1440p @ 165Hz.

>>57761495

If you clone a drive it will copy the format and the contents. If you can figure out enough linux without screwing it up you can run linux off a burned cd or usb without a drive and use the dd command to clone the drive for free and without a third hard drive to run the operating system. Its just as easy to wipe your good disk though all it would take is to type the drives int he wrong order.

Google drive cloning till you find a method you like.

>I'm not fucking with Linux. I'm using Macrium which can "clone this disk" or "Image this disk". I don't know what the difference is, but I'm assuming I can just do one of those unto my new SSD?

Not sure. The problem I can see which may just be me making it up is that you need to be running and logged into windows in order to use the program. And I am not sure it is going to want to copy a drive you are currently running.

Maybe its just me though I suppose someone made a program to do just that. If I was doing it though I would copy from one drive to another while neither are running.

key = d[b'info'] 
this = bencoder.encode(key)

print(key)
print(binascii.hexlify(new))

the output is -

anyone any idea what is going on here?

I am getting worse performance in Watch_Dogs 2 when I install to my primary SSD than when I install to my secondary 7200RPM HDD. I'm not even sure how that's possible.

When I installed the game to my 7200 RPM HDD, my GPU would go up to 100% usage and I could get 60+FPS.

But when I installed the game to my primary SSD, the one Windows and Uplay are installed to, my GPU wouldn't go up to 100%. It, instead, hovered around 40-50% and I could only get ~30FPS.

I installed the game back to my secondary 7200 RPM HDD and got the 60+FPS performance back. But I'm confounded. How did installing the game to the faster drive bottleneck the GPU? It'd be one thing if the GPU were at 100%, but it won't even max out when installed to the SSD. How does that even happen?

I'm torrenting a Hackintosh-Zone 10.10.1 DMG file as I type this. I have an old Intel based Mac with Lion that I can use to format the USB flash drive and write the OS to. So my question about the flash drive is do I use GUID or MBR as the partition scheme? Also what about the bootloader? I have Debian installed and I would like to have that show up in the Clover/Chameleon bootloader alongside OS X. Anything I should do or look out for or does the install tool do this automatically? What BIOS settings need to be enabled/disabled for this to work properly?

Any other general advice or warnings would be helpful too.

something to the effect that boats are money pits, and only have about a twenty five year lifespan so if you have a boat it's likely to sink in your lifetime, possibly with you on it, and something like one in three people own boats, and people with boats want to take their friends out on it and show off, so it's not really necessary to own a boat to enjoy the benefits

This is one of the most painful things I've ever experienced so I'm also going to excercize and do stretches after this because Jesus Christ if I ever have to go through a week of nonstop pain no matter the position or painkillers I think I'll go insane. But a better chair would also be awesome

When it comes to anti-static just touch your hand to unpainted metal to discharge every so often. If you are going to be working with hardware a lot then just buy the wriststrap, it's cheap.

first things first, is the cooling setup good/working? is the gpu heatsink free of dust? is its fan(s) working? are the system fans working? is there enough airflow in the case?
you can also reduce the amount of heat being generated in various ways, such as underclocking your gpu, or capping the framerate of your games to something lower than what it can do

my tower has room for 2x140mm at the top and 1x140mm at the bottom, nothing fitted in either of those slots. Should I block them off or just leave them open? I have big problems with dirt and dust where I live also, especially in my room

R9 390 is Sapphire tech and has 3 fans all of them working fine still, bought it new earlier this year

didn't realise video cards could be underclocked or ran cooler by capping FPS - will have to try this

will turning down settings in game help instead of just running on auto and having everything set to ultra or max?

>>57765919
>Should I block them off or just leave them open?
blocking them may help, it's air /flow/ that's important, if for example, the rear fan ends up drawing air from an open top rather than from the air being brought in through the front, there may be little airflow in the middle of the machine

>I have big problems with dirt and dust where I live also
you can get dust filters, but they're a double edged sword, on one hand, they greatly reduce dust build up, and are easier to clean than pulling out parts and cleaning their heatsinks, but they also reduce how much air the fans can pull through them, so you need more/more powerful fans to make up for it

>didn't realise video cards could be underclocked or ran cooler by capping FPS - will have to try this
think about it, typically, one lets the machine render the game as fast as it can, this means as soon as one frame is done, it starts rendering the next frame. there's no idle time
if you cap it, you leave it gaps of time in between frames in which it can idle, therefore saving power and reducing heat. it's also pretty useful on laptops to extend battery life

>will turning down settings in game help instead of just running on auto and having everything set to ultra or max?
in combination with capping the framerate it can help also, but if you leave it uncapped it won't make a difference, the card will simply render more frames at less detail

a not-very-scientific example of framerate capping effects

on the left is glxgears (simple 3D graphics test program), capped to ~60fps by means of vsync
the gpu is barely under any load, as it has no trouble rendering the simple graphics at 60fps, temps don't go much above idle

and on the right is with vsync off, no cap
it renders much faster, way more than my display can even show. the gpu usage is higher, but since it's such a simple program, it's still not using the entire gpu core (in a full modern game, this would be much higher usage)
the temperature rose over 10C above what it was before

Should I buy my new gfx card from amazon or newegg? Same price from both but I've heard amazon has better customer service. Only problem is they are out of stock until December 5th whereas Newegg will arrive when all my other parts do.

I bought a NUC5i3RYH for my mom, but there seems to be zero video output through the mini hdmi port. I havent tried the mini display port since i dont have that cable.. Any ideas?

Someone, pls, give me reasons to stick to my build budget and buy an i3 6100 and not an i5 6500. Its like 120$ more in CAD.. b-b-but its i5..

I have used wondershare for a few projects. extremely easy to use and got most of the features you need. the version i got of piratebay can be used fully/registered while you are offline.

Shotcut is the least shitty of the free video editors I've used, but if you just want to make a slideshow windows movie maker can do that.

is there some filter or preset function in a free image editor to make something look very pixelated like its from a 144p or worse video?

I installed a new psu to reduce coil whine in 200-300 fps games, it has reduced the noise a bit, but for some reason my task manager is now saying 100% disk speed and different speeds mainly on system but sometimes on bit defender or chrome, what could be causing this?

I know a dumbass who needs one but refuses to use Google's services, have an Internet connection at home, or own a laptop lighter than an Xbox and with more than a few minutes of battery life. Also too dumb for org-mode.

I broke one of the blades off of my huge like 240mm fan so it causes my case to vibrate. How do I salvage it? Break off the opposite blade? I can't afford a new one, I'm just gonna replace my whole case when I can.

>>57767572
You'll need to balance it, which will be difficult without specialized equipment.

>>57767572
breaking off the opposite works fine

Anyone has a decent book recommentdation, or shall I just go with the msdn tutorial (seems to only grasp the basics)?

>>57767598
I'm picturing it in my head and I think it may still vibrate. Like i may need to break them all off in a square

>>57767656
no! just the opposite. basic physics. it will of course not be as effective as if you had all the blades but it will work fine.

why would anyone buy a 1000 watt psu?

1070 sli
6700k overclocked to 4.5
and im pulling 200-350 watts on full load

>>57767864
Your GPUs should be pulling that much alone, pretty sure you're not at full load

>>57767864
Well multiple gpu and some platforms like amd 9590 and Intel x99 take more power. Also optimal efficiency is at 50% load so if you have a 500w need that could be a reason.

If i have 1000 watt PSU but my unit only actually requires ~400 watt, is it wasting electricity?

>>57767923
nice cat

>>57767939
PSUs are generally most efficient around 50% load

can I tell which solar panel is better based on looks? one is mostly black with spaces and only a few white/grey lines and the other is covered in lines

My desktop was randomly rebooting with no BSOD. Sometimes it wouldn't turn on after the reboot. So now it won't boot at all, no beeps, and he CPU fan, a 212 evo won't spin. Plugging the cooler on another fan connection makes it work but the PC won't turn on. The stock fan also won't spin.

My HX 650's CPU 8 pin connector seems to work fine on an old PC, at least, making it beep and its cpu fan to spin. Having the CPU PSU cable plugged or not doesn't seem to make a difference, but the weirdest thing is how if I quickly turn my PSU off then on, the CPU's fan does spin, but still no boot nor beeping. Mobo is a gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 and CPU is a phenom II x4 960T.

Is there anything I can do?

Going to be building my first PC. SSDs are not necessary, but they allow faster loads time right? How does that work? does it only load the files that are on the SSD faster?
Also im waiting on
Mushkin Enhanced 32GB (2 x 16GB) Redline DDR4 PC4-24000 3000MHz Desktop Memory Model MRB4U300GJJM16GX2
https://www.amazon.com/Mushkin-Enhanced-Redline-PC4-24000-MRB4U300GJJM16GX2/dp/B01HMZJ9UC
Is it worth waiting for the 32gb RAM. its been almost 2 weeks without it being restocked.

http://www.logicalincrements.com/
has been my little guide for parts. (extremist section)

Thanks

>>57768468
The fact that you are considering 32GB of RAM makes not getting an SSD pants on head retarded

>>57768492
but how does the ssd work? Does it work exactly like a HDD, as in you just save files to it but its just faster?

>>57768380

It's semi-legit for work purposes, I have a business now so I'd rather just pay for it and be legit.

>>57768366

Most Ebay sellers sell you the actual packaged disc, I just need the key.

>>57768468
Give me 3 reasons or scenarios where you will use all of those 32 GBs of RAM.

Get 8GB period.

>>57768527
So is 32gb complete over kill for just games?

>>57768527
virutal machines, ram disk, rendering

>>57768521
Pretty much

>>57768546
8GB is fine for just games, 16GB is fine for games+multitasking
32GB is rendering/server/workstation level

of course it will fit, it's ddr4, that's all you have to know, of course check if your motherboard supports ram speeds

HOW THE FUCK DO I WORK MY BIOS
so that I CAN FUCKING
have an 800MHz idle processor
THAT DOESN'T ALSO FUCKING LOWER VOLTAGES.

i have 2 notebooks connected to the same router (wireless), one is windows and the other is linux mint
also, i don't have pendrives, sd cards or anything like that
is it possible to transfer stuff from one to another? how?

>>57769003
Set up a FTP server. E.g. Filezilla server on one machine and Filezilla client on the other.

>>57769016
can't i set up the FTP server on the linux mint machine? its windows only apparently

>>57769167
Look for vsftpd and install that on the Mint machine. (I don't know, maybe Mint already has a server installed, you may check for that). Use Filezilla client on the Windows machine.

You can also get WinSCP on the Windows machine and use SSH for file transfer. Atleast SSH should be configured under Mint already.

Hi /g/entlepeople, I'm trying to have my WinRar registered; I have the rarreg.key file, but I copied it to two folders

You are not using 7zip, that may be the problen.

>>57769319
Actually I am, but WinRar has some features that 7z doesn't have.

Im about to return laptop to seller. What program should I use to wipe the SSD?

I'm a retard when it comes to this shit.

Always had an issue with background noise through my mic, figured it was just super loud fans, which is a problem, but the background noise in my mic doesn't seem to dissipate if I move away from the computer, or cover the microphone with my hands, etc., making me think it might just be interference from the 3.5mm jack. Get the same issue in all of the ports on my PC. Some mics are better than others, but they all seem to have it.

Was looking to get a new headset, and was eying up some bluetooth wireless ones, which might fix the issue as well as last a decent amount of time as the cable always breaks at the headphone after a year or so. However, they all seem super expensive if you want to get a name-brand one, at least £100.

But I can see a fair few wired, name-brand ones that seem to come with a USB adaptor to plug the 3.5mm headphone/microphone cables into.

Wondering if the USB adaptor would make an actual difference? I'm assuming yes, but I just want to double check before I spend money. Or if you think there might be another solution, I'm more than open to it.

>>57770162
Should add I've tried using the on-board noise cancellation options and what not but they make the microphone completely unusable, as if I'm underwater.

new thread where?

Can someone upload the portable speccy to a pomf clone that Isnt pomf.cat?
