Primary SSD refusing to boot after disconnecting secondary (storage) HDD. What's happening? gaming computer builder

Hi gang, I'm having a very weird issue with my homebuilt monster machine and I need a little help.

NOTE The machine has been working fine for more than 2 years prior to this point. It's not a new build, I just made a minor change and this happened.

My machine has 2 hard drives. The one that runs everything, that has the Windows install and is the primary boot device is a 128GB Kingston SSD. When I first built the machine, this was the only drive and it booted and ran just fine. At the time, I had a 2TB external HDD with all my movies and stuff on it. It was on a dock and connected via USB. For the sake of condensing the number of wires and power supplies I had to deal with, I eventually mounted the 2TB HDD inside the case and ran power and SATA to it. I was able to assign it a drive name and access it within Windows and it worked fine. The main drive (SSD) is C: and the Big Drive is D:. Both have been fully operational for years.

I recently decided to set up a Network Attached Storage device. I unmounted the Big Drive to plug it into the NAS brick and move everything over...only to find that once the Big Drive was unplugged, my computer will no longer boot. It flashes the BIOS screen, then loads a black screen with this message:

"Reboot and select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key."

If I plug the Big Drive back into the internal SATA where it was, it boots like nothing ever happened. Unplug it, same error message. I have gone into the BIOS and made sure the SSD is the designated boot device. The BIOS can see it there, it is working. I know the Windows install is on the SSD, NOT the Big Drive, because as I said the SSD was originally the only drive installed in the machine and the Big Drive is strictly used for storage. But for some reason, the computer now thinks that it cannot boot without the Big Drive mounted to D:.

Does anyone have an idea what is happening and how I can correct it?

Good and FREE file recovery software. Desperate for help :( gaming computer builder

I accidentally deleted an MP4 video from my computer that I really needed. I've tried many different softwares to try recover the lost MP4 but they either don't find it at all or find something that looks similar (meaning a file with today's date but different text E.G "Tddg64X2d") only to find that when I try recover it it asks for me to pay to recover my own files.

Please help! I'm desperate for help after 5 hours of searching.

Wireless solution for Laptop second monitor gaming computer builder

I have a nice desktop, and nicer laptop (Dell XPS 13). The laptop is modern and portable and powerful, and I am doing more and more work on the laptop. However, I miss the benefits of a large screen. Sadly, my desktop is too old to make use of wireless display adapters, and the laptop, infuriatingly, lacks an HDMI port.

What are my options for expanding my laptop's display to a second? Ideally, I'd like to use the two displays side-by-side and drag and drop between them. For example, if I'm doing some audio mixing, I'd have the project on the main display, and faders and mix controls on the second screen.

A few notes - the XPS only has two USB ports, both of which are used by other hardware. It does have a Thunderbolt port, however. Wireless would be the preferred method, however.

Thanks.

Possible Memory Leak gaming computer builder

I'm currently running windows 10 on my machine. I've noticed recently that when I boot up after everything initializes I'm running at about a 10% ram usage. The ram is dual channel slot 1 and 3 and two 8gb sticks for 16 total. After running for a while running games, internet, and OBS I start to slow way down. When I close out of everything I have running and check my ram usage it's at around a constant 75-85% with everything closed. The only fix I've found is to completely restart and it fixes the problem. So What I'm trying to figure out is how do I find out if its a memory leak or something else.

(TL;DR) Possible memory leak, how do I know for sure, and how do I fix?

I Can't Access Bios? Halp? gaming computer builder

Pc is running Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 motherboard with Gigabyte AMD Radeon R9 8gb graphics card.

This problem was identified after a user complained the screen kept going black randomly and nothing helped other than manual reset/shutdown. Went though all amd driver-related troubleshooting (full clean and update) and windows-related (full os restore after a bunch of setting adjustments), but the blackouts got worse. Now the display cuts out after about 60 seconds of being booted up, regardless of windows in safe mode. It even happened during a windows os reset.

So I tried to access the bios to check display settings but... no access? Huh? Bios/motherboard loadup screen does not appear no matter what, it just goes straight to windows. Safe mode, slamming the f2/delete key, unplugging everything (including one or two hard drives)... I just can't bring up bios. I thought about clearing CMOS but not sure if that would help.

Some background... the pc was recently upgraded to six drives, so it has 2 hdd's, 3 ssd's and a hybrid. But its running on a 850 gold psu so I didn't think it would be an issue and its been working fine since we set it up, and when the screen goes black the video card still lights up and lets me know its on 'silent resting mode' so I don't think its a power issue. This pc has been running fine for a while and its pretty high-end... although the motherboard is five years old.

Any thoughts or recommendations? Is the board fried?

What budget laptops are good for computer science gaming computer builder

Currently I have a HP 15-G012DX that I originally got for light gaming and school work. Now that I'm in my second year in college, I need a new machine as the HP is now on its last legs (battery doesn't work, shuts down randomly, hinges giving problems). My courses are going to be based around C, Java, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Android App development. I'm limited to $500 USD to spend on a machine. What I'm looking for is a machine that will last at least 3-5 years that I can do programming on as well as maybe light gaming (Minecraft, Summoners War, Asphalt 8). Any suggestions?

Keyboard blinks and pc crashed 10 seconds later gaming computer builder

Hej guys, i recently bought a used pc online ( dell studio xps8100) once i turned on the pc it would keep crashing after a while on random periods. The only thing why i know it will crash is because my keyboard and mouse wont work anymore and the keyboard is flashing in a way that it seems like it wouldnt get enough power.

I tried a 800w power supply but that didnt change anything. I reinstalled windows but that didnt help either. I placed a "new" videocard in it and the hdd was completely empty when i got it bit did format it to be sure. I tried everything that i cam think of.

Doea anyone know a solution? It would be great of i could make this pc run again

Degrading performance gaming computer builder

When playing games I've noticed that my fps isn't where it used to be, as well as the sudden fps loss where it stutters and makes it extremely difficult to play because it feels like I'm running on 15 fps. The primary game I play a majority of the time is world of tanks, where on max settings my pc can get 70-80 at a reasonably solid constant, even with some light multitasking in the background. Now it hovers at 50-60 where it occasionally drops to <30 when the stutters hit. No change has been made to any settings. I'm not sure about fps numbers in other games, but the stuttering applies to those as well.

I'm running an fx8350 @4.5ghz and a r9 380.

Printing double sided on networked HP Laserjet 1020? gaming computer builder

I have three computers, one is a 64bit Windows 7 and the other two are 32bit Windows 7. I've got an HP Laserjet 1020 printer connected to the 64bit Windows PC and set up to be able to printed to from the other two PCs, the only issue is that I can't seem to be able to print double sided. When I try to print double sided the printer does print off the first side page(s) but there is supposed to be a dialogue box that pops that has you reinsert the pages for the second side but this doesn't come up and so the Print can be completed.

I've tried reinstalling the print drivers, installing the UDP software to the best of my ability but I still can't seem to get this to work as it should. I have tried asking and searching before on Google and, iirc, I think it may have something to do with the fact that the main PC is 64bit and the others are 32bit, I could be wrong. If anyone has any solutions I'd appreciate trying them.

Thanks

Windows anti-viral software qualms gaming computer builder

It's no question Windows sucks in the field of virus protection, but my new laptop gets updates from several different services daily (McAfee and ByteFence namely), popping up interrupting whatever I'm doing and asking me to "buy this product because my computer could be at risk." This is a brand new computer and I have done nothing on it that could have infected my system so severely, nothing worth any anti-viral software fretting over. Is there any way I can deal with these obnoxious pop-up messages and warnings other than buying something from them?

I need laptop help gaming computer builder

I have 2 laptops that I'm needing help with. I have an Asus x540s and it's fan isn't working and it's speaker makes popping noises and when I plug headphones in they make the noise too, so I'm thinking it's the sound card. I haven't checked on them in the device manager because I don't want to use the computer without a fan. I also have an hp 2000-2b19WM and the WiFi won't work on it. I'll press the button to turn it on and it'll just stay orange showing that it's off. I've checked on some stuff in the device manager and I've troubleshooted with it with no internet and on the internet via an ethernet cable and nothing has popped up. I've tried switching out the WiFi receiver card and nothing happened so I'm thinking it's software related. Also the 2 USB ports on the right side next to the disc drive won't work. I haven't gotten around to checking them yet because I was going to fix the WiFi problem first.

Razer Black Widow Chroma Not Working gaming computer builder

Hey guys. I have a razer black widow Chroma ad a keyboard, and it has been working completely fine since I got it, which was a few months ago, until about a week or two ago. All of a sudden it, along with my razer firefly, go off randomly and I don't know why. Now all of a sudden I just tested it again, and this time, every time I go on overwatch my keyboard an mouse pad go on, but when I go off overwatch it goes off again and doesn't go back on. I also have a razer naga Chroma, but that doesn't go off because it's wireless I'm guessing. It probably has something to do with the wires but I'm not sure. Please give me your opinions, it would be greatly appreciated.

I exposed my hard drive platter. What's the chance it's repairable? gaming computer builder

My external hard drive was dropped and wasn't working. I took it apart and saw that the platter was intact and still moved, but the heads do not touch it to read and make a beeping sound each they try to go towards the platter.

So... I'm wondering what the likelihood is that it's damaged beyond repair because of the dust it was exposed to. And is it still worth sending it to a specialist and forking out $500+?

Computer just died, can't spend a single dime for now, need leads on the problem. gaming computer builder

Hello guys,

As stated above, my computer just died while I was playing. Sound got distorded, the image shred with vertical stripes, and the screen got black. The "still turned on black", as it was still turned on. No sound. I rebooted it and the image is still shreded, plus windows cant starts and wants to do a repair, wich fails.

The only thing wrong with my computer is a nude wire on the screen power cord (been like this for months) and a bit too much dust. Could it be that I short-circuited something, and is it repairable ?

Any advice would be welcome, as the hardware is no really my cup of tea.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for the format, I'm posting from my phone (duh.)

Samsung Chromebook pro or surface pro 4 gaming computer builder

I am going to be starting school soon and am looking to upgrade my computer setup...the idea is instead of getting a powerful laptop (MacBook pro, New surface pro, etc.) I will build a high end desktop, (7700k, gtx 1080ti, 32 GB ram, etc.) And have a cheaper laptop to carry around for notes and if I need to have access to more powerful applications I can remote desktop into my desktop. I originally was considering a refurbished m3 model surface pro 4 for $750 including keyboard but have recently thought about going with the Samsung Chromebook pro as it is newer and cheaper. Will I be okay going through my schooling with just a Chromebook and being able to remote into my desktop, or would I be better off getting the surface pro 4 that way I can do more on the go and not need to remote in as often?

Low FPS in CSGO with fairly decent Laptop for gaming. gaming computer builder

Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 15.6" Gaming Laptop (7th Gen Intel Core i7, 8 GB RAM, 1000 GB HDD + 128GB SSD), NVIDIA GTX 1050) (i5577-7359BLK-PUS), Metal Chassis. I use this laptop to game while traveling and I've noticed lately while playing csgo (on lowest possible settings and start up properties set) that I've been getting around 50-70 fps. I figure since this laptop has decent specs I wouldn't drop below 60 FPS on lower settings. Other games like DOTA 2 and The Witcher 3 dont seem to have issues staying above 60 FPS. Also I am playing on 1920x1080 60hz if that helps. Any suggestions?

Can someone who understands more about computers help me pick between these three (or suggest another) gaming computer builder

The laptop I have right now is years old and extra shitty/keeps shutting down, so I'm in the market for a new one. I am trying to stay in the $500-1000 range. I don't really carry my computer around anywhere, so weight isn't a huge issue. I mostly use my computer for watching videos online, browsing online, and playing games (but I don't want anything like a chromebook). I would like a computer that can easily run things like Skyrim and The Sims 4. HDMI output would be a nice bonus, but not a dealbreaker.

Here are three computers that I thought looked pretty good, but then again I really don't know too much about specs so maybe they aren't lol. I've only really looked on Best Buy's website because that's the most user-friendly for me to look at.

Number one

Number two

Number three

Or suggest something else! Any help is appreciated!! Thanks!

Windows help?? gaming computer builder

Is there any other way I can reset it WITHOUT a keyboard? Should I buy a wired keyboard? Will that even fix my problem? Thanks in advance

Just like the title, I've tried two different testers, and the light for -5V on my 24 pin connector doesn't light up on either of them. Is this supposed to happen? What does it mean?

Hey. I have a security footage file for an accident and I can't seem to open this mjp file. Does anyone know how to view or convert it? I tried VLC and a couple other programs I've found online. Thank you!

Sams will be discounting it to $450 for August 5th only. Will be used for a general use computer/and some occasional work from home stuff but nothing too fancy. Not for major gaming maybe a little here and there. Don't know too much about them! Thanks in advance!

Netintelligence Activation Key? gaming computer builder

Hello, so my girlfriend is trying to essentially deactivate this programme, as it is blocking almost anything on the internet, but it requires some kind of Activation Key that is apparently located on the computer?

Non of us know a thing about computers, so any help would be appreciated, thanks :).
