    Why do I have to do this???

    I think you're right about over-complicating it. I've done it before like this but I think I used an external drive. Seemed simple enough to just make a backup imagine and install it. Thanks for the reply..

    Why do I have to do this???

    So I purchased the WD M.2 nvme 500GB SSD, then went into my computer settings and made a backup recovery image of my system, copied it to one of the internal hard drives already present but formatted as a simple drive for storage, made a bootable thumb drive with Windows media creation tool...

    Fan control on GPU

    I'll check that. But I really think it's something in the bios that's not letting me do a customized curve for some reason. It's crazy. Sometimes the other fan starts first when I dig around in the Afterburner settings. I can't determine any specific pattern that makes them do what they do.

    Is this PSU big enough for this?

    Yeah, you were reading my mind. I was thinking that exact same way. The power supply is OLD... Lol.. This will be the third upgrade with it. I hate to put ole Bessy out to pasture just yet. She held up under the legendary Q6600 season, now she's seen her way through the FX generation. She's...

    Fan control on GPU

    Good points. I just updated the drivers this week to latest (December) but the bad thing is I don't know how they were acting before today. In other words I don't know if the update actually contributed to the problem or not, lol. Fixing to A) uninstall Afterburner because I don't really know...

    Fan control on GPU

    I'm running an Radeon HD 7950 with dual fans and recently I've noticed that neither fan runs continuously but rather one spins up after after the GPU starts heating up and the other doesn't even come on at all until it's way higher than what I would like. I actually have two computers with this...

    Can I do this with my HHD?

    I have windows installed on a separate drive, but I have a few other drives for backup and storage. I have two large drives that I use to mirror one another with all my family pictures and home video. I also have a couple of off-site backup drives incase of home fires or such. One day I hope to...

    Desktop won't boot up

    Check your headers. Had a computer doing something similar one time and come to find out one of the front USB ports was damaged (possibly small child crammed something that didn't belong into it) I unplugged it from the mobo and solved the problem. Another thing, make sure you reseat (unplug and...
