Re: PSU weaken - occasional reset
That PSU looks much better than expected for Raidmax!
Albeit it's likely overrated in watts, wouldn't be surprised if the components are intended for 500W to maybe 750W.
Those caps, however, is...

Re: GTX 1660 BIOS Beep Error
One long and three short bleeps=it means video init failure. I'm afraid it's dead.
However, back in 2004, when I had my Asus A7V8X-X and tried a Radeon 9600 SE, before returning it, which the...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
I wouldn't be surprised if the OEM PSUs are normally better PSUs at the time that PC was made. Looks like another case of an OEM PSU being replaced with a super cheapo PSU. Like a PC that I saw, with...

Re: socket 775 forever... no, no, no...
Yep, just like good ol' XP x64 Edition, which will also run well with 4 GB of RAM.
Because NT 5, unlike NT 6/10, will not take 512 MB to 2 GB of RAM just for itself when idle at the desktop,...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
The only thing bad about a 9th-gen, is if you can't flash the UEFI-BIOS to fix a critical remote-code-execution CSME exploit. It has the highest severity rating of all recent ones! With some laptops,...

Re: Hard drive reliability
May be a problem with the board. 5 MB/s means possibly in PIO mode, which usually doesn't happen with SATA. Do you have any ATA communication errors?

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
I think the non-APU versions are better. I have what's a refreshed version of this, but CPU-only version of the gen after Richland.
Kaveri, was right after Richland and while it looks better for...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
That socket FM2 system, I see, uses a Richland CPU! The Richlands, are AMD's version of Pentium 4! Those will need at least close to 5 GHz to compete with most 3.6 GHz processors!

Re: XBox cannot be turned off?
I had an old PC case where the motherboard would come back on after pressing the power button! I would have to tap it just right, for the motherboard to stay turned off! LOL :lol:

Re: Samsung UE65JS8500 UE65JS8500LX 5 blinks
We haven't even been able to confirm blink codes for LG and Samsung TVs.
We know that Panasonic, Sony, Sharp and Pioneer (most likely) OTOH, routinely give blink codes for a malfunction.
But,...

Re: best cheap/free scores 1.1
I had a T-bird like that one in 2002, I got one for my 100 MHz FSB motherboard. (The 1.3 GHz 100 MHz FSB variant)
It's only bad, because I killed it by putting too much horizontal pressure. (or...
