If I try to Check For Updates, wuauserv just starts up, uses 12.5% of my CPU, and does absolutely nothing. No disk activity, no internet activity. I've done half a dozen things from Microsoft's site like checking to see if LAN connections are automatically set (they are), stopping services and...

I noticed it never put an update notice up this month.. Turns out it enabled some thing that made it wait to upgrade to Windows 10 instead of telling me there was updates.. I had to disable it and hide it again. Then I could access updates for Windows 7.. I ran the updates, and it completely...

Any issues so far? I'm afraid to run it after the issues the last few months.

I installed all of the latest drivers and everything.. Rig is in my sig. The symptom basically is this-- when I test drive speeds on all my drives, even the SSD, it reads full speed (over 400MB/s on the SSD and almost 200MB/s on the HDDs). Yet every 4 seconds it suddenly dips to HALF the...

If so, I just connected the wiring to the motherboard and am left with two wires I'm not sure what they're for... One is a SATA power connector... What does this power? (the fan hub uses Molex)... I don't want to plug it in if I don't know what it's for. Then there is one labeled "USB"...

I just installed an MSI Z87-GD65 into my case and the side edges of the mobo are sticky.. Yuck! Is this normal??

I'm going to be building a new rig this week, and it's the first one I've built that has the integrated video present in the CPU... I'm going to be using an EVGA GeForce GTX 780, though. Do I still have to install the Intel VGA driver? Of do I just install the GeForce drivers? Will...

Is it worth getting the MPower over the GD65 if I can get it for less?

I'm conflicted. :D

..or are current LCD PC monitors just smaller 1080p TVs? Apparently, along the way the last few years, the PC monitor business forgot that PCs, while are used a lot for movies and entertainment, are still used to do some work, which is more designed for 16:10 not 16:9. I was thinking of...

I just received my first LCD TV today, a Toshiba 46XV645U. Plugged it into my PC using a DVI-HDMI converter on my EVGA GeForce 260 GTX FTW, while my computer was running no less- instantly recognized it and set it to 1920x1080, no problem.. Well, at least no problem until I went to reboot about...

Anybody know of a site that carries longer SATA II cables (16"+) that doesn't completely assrape people with the shipping costs? There doesn't seem to be any stores in my entire area that carry SATA cables at all.

I'm not going to be overclocking, planning on using 8GB of memory with an E8400 and a single video card (GeForce GTX 260), so is there really much difference between this and this, other than the unneeded Crossfire ability and Firewire?

Yea or Nay guys? There doesn't seem to be many write-ups on it, but everything I have seen so far has been good. It's also got one hell of a stable looking base. Any place that has that model that doesn't give a hard time with defective pixel returns? I hear Newegg sucks for that..

I recently purchased the nVidia Purevideo codec, after having an un-removable expired version of NVDVD for ages that would just crash when I tried to run it. Now with the purchase and activation of the Purevideo, NVDVD works again. Is it using the Purevideo codecs or old NVDVD ones, or am I...
