Okay thank you.
In your reply you mostly stick to the display driver. Do you think the display driver would cause freezing of input? Seems unlikely to me, as the mouse still moves.

My system is occasionally freezing for 4 or 5 or 7 seconds (approximately) while I'm typing. I believe it has always been web browsers I've been typing in, including Firefox, Chrome, and an...
I'm just confused because there are many options in the BIOS related to UEFI and I don't see anything called "UEFI mode." Are you saying that setting CSM support to "disabled" is the same thing as...
Thanks. My motherboard has several CSM settings with choices of "Legacy" or "UEFI" such as Network, Storage and Video. Do I set them all to UEFI? I'm guessing so, but just wanted to check.
I actually don't have any significant data on this computer... it's a new gaming computer with a couple of games installed and not any significant saved data. So I think I'll just a clean install....
I'm going to ask the seller if they mind if I reinstall the OS in UEFI mode. (EDIT: or if it will void the warranty or they'll end support)
Thanks Macboatmaster. If I could give you 2 rep I would....
It's fixed. I installed the latest AMD chipset drivers.. I didn't track all the drivers, but at least the AMD PCI driver got updated from 1.0.0.64 to 1.0.0.81. I also updated the BIOS with the latest...
BSOD logs attached (V2).
I discovered something which is that when I uninstall the video driver, the option to sleep goes away from the power button. When I go into the detailed power options...
Returned to normal boot. Check.

Note that turning link state off did not help.
Do you...
Thanks for your help.
Power supply is KRATOS M1 550B.
The Sceptre monitor has no option I can find about auto-detect, so no option to turn it off. I'm not sure but I think it doesn't have...
Thanks for replying.
I updated windows to 20H2 and the NVIDIA driver to 466.11. No improvement.
The BIOSTAR motherboard is B450MH

Windows version is 1909. System specs should be in my profile.
This is a new gaming machine I purchased a couple weeks ago. The issue is that when I put it to sleep, upon waking up through the...
Windows Update, operating system update, or whatever it's called. The thing that happens when it says "update and shut down" in the power button menu.

I have a Windows 10 computer (an Intel NUC) with built-in sound (Realtek) and an external USB-driver D/A convertor (essentially a USB sound card).
Some time after an update (although I'm not sure...
I have an Intel NUC. Recently, shortly after I started watching video in Firefox, the computer shut down suddenly. I suspected that it was thermal overload, so the next time I started my computer I...
I really appreciate the link, but I can't make sense of the different programs. I don't know how to choose one for my purposes. Can you maybe give me a clue what basic area I need to benchmark,...
I was hoping to find a sticky about benchmarking in this forum but I can't find one.
I want to compare two laptops I'm thinking of purchasing. I'm interested in the performance on loading...
Oh, I didn't know there was another good way of sharing items on a local network. Okay I'll learn how to do that.

I tried creating a homegroup on a Windows 7 computer. When I try to join it from my Windows 10 computer, it says it detects it, and asks for a password, but suddenly reports that it no longer exists...
Oops, turns out System Protection was off for all my drives. I didn't know they would ship a laptop in that state. So no restore points.
Just a few days okay I updated the graphics drivers from...
I'm on an MSI laptop, the GS60 6QD. I am suddenly having issues with playback of video files, either in VLC or the Windows "Movies and TV" player. All video looks like it's a low frame rate. There...
Thanks, good idea!
One minor flaw is that the drive is still vulnerable during the period it is mounted. Once ransomware is on the computer, it will probably just keep running and looking for...
I like backing up to local drives--I back up to the cloud also, but I like knowing I can get my data back quickly, even if the internet is down, as long as it's a simple problem like a main hard...
