    Can someone please confirm...


    Had a few weird crashes lately and I am trying to figure out what the cause is... in the mean time I think I might have same data corruption but can someone please confirm that if during the Windows 7 Startup, after the logo has moved around a bit, does the screen just go black before booting in or does the logo freeze and pixelate in the bottom right hand corner of the monitor? It's just one of many werid things that I can't figure out if it was happening before the crashes, just trying to narrow it down.

    Windows 7 64-Bit Ultimate SP1

    Cheers!

    This is a clear sign of overheating or defects in the GPU
    Clean the dust accumulated in the GPU fans and turn off any overclocking

    Thanks for the reply.

    I clean the PC on a monthly basis to get rid of dust as it accumulates quite a lot so I know it's not caused by that. I overclock the cpu but I don't overclock the GPU, temps are absolutely fine as well, CPU is clocked at 3.8GHz but idles at 33 degrees and only hits 49 degrees under load.

    The only thing that had crossed my mind was if the heatsink has been screwed to the motherboard too tight but having loosened it I still get the logo anamaly which leads me to believe the crashing issues aren't going to be far behind.

Hi. I have one SSD for the OS and 2 HDDs for storage. Seatools tells me that the HDD bearing Model No 1234 and Serial No ABCD has failed its test. Luckily, I have enough space to put all my data onto one HDD after which I'll replace the failed HDD. Unfortunately, I can't see a way to confirm...

I am setting up printing on our library circulation machine. I want to tweak the printing to eliminate the confirm print box, so we click print and it just prints. We have to print a receipt with every book checked out and this would save us a lot of time. In other words we click print receipt and...
