Today my computer is getting stuck at the "Starting Windows" part. I left it there all morning and it didn't get past it.
I tried using system restore, startup repair, chkdsk, memory check, etc. But it didn't fix it.
I tried to start in safe mode but it gets stuck after loading driver amdkmpfd.sys.
Google wasn't much help and microsofts page says to go and modify the registry but I feel like I'm gonna fuck up.
What do?
Holy shit, source on that vid?

how do i get the keyboard on an android (gal s5) to REMAIN visible even if im not in a text box? i downloaded the hacker keyboard and fucked with some settings so i can get it to pop up, but it disappears. i need a way for it to stay there. is this possible, or is there another app? etc etc
>>54040010
I dunno if I want to carry around another device.
I feel if I did. I'd end up just leaving the headphones at home and end up just using the speakers on the laptop again.

Fug, I checked with HDTune, how bad is this? Fucking shit i dont have money for this crap. Should I go HDD or SSD? Currently only using about 230GB.
Whenever I press CTRL+SHIFT+S to save a file in Illustrator or Photoshop or whatever, I get a stupid fucking red screenshot taking thing instead.
I don't know how to disable it. It's not under the snipping tool settings, I can't find any solutions by searching for 'CTRL+SHIFT+S screenshot' wtf is this horseshit??
Alright so i got that rainmeter thing set up now, i used this one to replace the all cpu meter (it's basically a fork of it if you will);

It's pretty neat so far but the only gripes i'm having is that i can't find the settings to change the length of this window (i already removed the page file and some other info i didn't want from the .ini but the size is still the same as before) and there also doesn't seem to be any way to change the update interval for the measurement info being shown. I also want to move the clock speed info to the top as it was before with the gadget.
Right now it updates the values every second but i want it to only update every 3 secs or so. Can someone lend me a hand here because i really can't code to save my life
Oh and it would also be nice if there was a way to recolor the entire scheme of this skin so that i can use the saved hex values from the old all meter gadget which i saved and give it the exact same look as before, but that's not a top priority for me right now 2bh

Sounds fucked. Reinstall. You can use a live Linux or even the Windows install disc to copy files you want to keep out to another disk or USB stick. To get a file explorer from a Windows install disc, shift+F10 when you get to the first screen. It'll open a command prompt. From there run explorer to open a file manager.
BTW, if you don't have anywhere to back up files to and want to keep them anyway, use the above tricks to copy the files to some new dir you create in C:\, then delete *everything* else on the disk, including C:\Windows and the various system files in C:\. Then proceed to do a normal install, but instead of deleting existing partitions, click the big C: one and tell it to install into it. Not quite as clean as a full reformat, but close.

Whats the best Linux distro for muh aesthetics desktop? (pic related)
Last time I have used Linux was a couple of years ago and it was Ubuntu. How hard is it to achieve something like this and do I need to know code?
looking for cheap hosting (no more than $4) and all i find are hosts with small bandwidth. years ago i got "unlimited" for $3~, and they were on those trashy godaddy-ish sites. so what's the deal here? was i not getting unlimited bandwidth then? and how much will i need for a starter "viral" (as in, will buy some facebook publicity and copy viralnova content) site?
What is the best laptop brand out there?
I have a pretty good desktop gaming computer. I might be away from home for a while though, and I want to play video games. I have a cheap ass laptop that I use for web browsing.

Pretty much this. You are the one person who knows the company's systems inside and out. When shit goes wrong, you know how to fix it.
>but if you're good at your job your hard work will go unnoticed because everything will work smoothly.
Yes, and eventually they lay you off and hire a cheap guy to do the job because "nothing ever seems to go wrong and you're just sitting around most of the time". Then they come crawling back to you after about a week when their email is all messed up, none of the printers work, and the server is spewing random errors. This is your chance -- you will fix it, but only if they bring you back on with higher pay.
Or, you periodically remind them of your importance. If nothing has gone wrong for a good while, quietly cause a small disaster and be the hero by quickly putting everything right again.

I'm going to be tossing this computer(along with the HDD) to a buddy of mine who needs it more than me and I'll be upgrading to a new rig.
What's a proper way of completely nuking the HDD that won't take a year and a half? I have a USB with an Ubuntu installer on it. Will a wipe from that be sufficient enough or do I need a dedicated program?
>>54042467
http://www.dban.org/
>>54042467
I doubt he would give a shit enough to recover your data after youve written Ubuntu over it. It should be clean enough, if you do a regular install it will delete everything on it and make it a blank slate of Ubuntu
>>54042467
DBAN.
Multiple wipes are needed.
>>54042467
>>54042489
If using DBAN, make sure you set it to just 1 random pass and 1 zero pass. Maybe skip the random pass and just one zero pass. After simply zeroing a drive, you need at the very least, expensive equipment that can control the drive and capture the analog signal from the drive head, and you have to know non-public details about this particular HDD model's on-disk layout and encoding.
Anything more than 1-2 passes is silly unless you've got something on there that the CIA desperately wants.
HDDerase is faster and potentially more secure than DBAN. It's faster because it simply tells the drive to erase itself rather than generating and streaming the data to write to it. It's potentially more secure because if you have any remapped sectors, internal secure erase will wipe them while anything accessing the drive normally through its firmware can't touch them.
http://cmrr.ucsd.edu/people/Hughes/Secure-Erase.html
Download it there. Or, a good bootdisk with it and a decent selection of SATA drivers, is included on the UBCD.
>>54042369
masterpdf
>>54042577
>Multiple wipes are needed
Only if you are storing nuclear launch codes and the CIA is after them.
Single pass is enough to prevent recovery of the data by normal means.
>>54042590
DOJ uses 2 passes
DOD uses 7 passes
>>54042609
And 5 are enough to make sure nothing can be recovered.

Get a rag damp with rubbing alcohol and wipe them off maybe? It will probably take a few passes. You can get a bottle in any pharmacy for a couple bucks. Get the stuff that is 95+%, not 70%.

>>54042887
Are you baiting by any chance?
The 750Ti is a outdated card and still way better than the 5870, even in SLI.
>>54042618
And in order to spend what it takes to recover anything from a single zero pass, you have to know that there was something damn good on that drive. He's giving it to a friend and just wants to prevent casual recovery attempts with PhotoRec and the like. A single zero pass accomplishes that nicely. He isn't trying to stop the NSA.

People had devices to connect them to PCs. These were either available for purchase from Hong Kong, occasionally in stores as "have all your games in one cartridge" devices or for savegame backup, but could be used with custom software to dump ROMs to a PC. And occasionally people made their own, generally a PIC microcontroller or similar talking to the cartridge or ROM chip desoldered from it, and talking to the PC over parallel or serial.

I had a 750 ti, pretty much identical performance to a single HD5870 in battlefield 4, which was the only game I played at the time.
On high settings the 750 ti was around 5 fps faster, I gave it to my sister and my 5870 is collecting dust. 5770 crossfire outperformed it.
Currently my 5870 is giving me 55-65fps on low in gta 5 and 5770 crossfire is giving me 65-75fps when I last swapped it out to compare.
With 5870 crossfire I should be able to turn some settings up and maintain 60fps.
I have a friend who just upgraded, willing to sell his 5870 for 60 aud. I'm honestly considering it.
Dual gtx 570 is from another friend for $150(75 each), and the 670 is around the same price online. Same with hd 7950.

[citation needed]
To software-only solutions, and really anything talking to it over ATA, the hard disk is a simple, linear block device. Store something at a location and it will stay there, and the previous contents there are lost. Even if the drive has reallocated the sector or otherwise decides to keep the old value around inside like a wear-leveling SSD might, you can't access it without interfacing with the storage inside the drive more directly. And mere software can't do that, because the drive's own firmware only presents to it a block of sectors.
Maybe what you've read is that files can be recovered using free software after a mere *format*. Format leaves the previous data in place on most sectors. It merely overwrites the directory that says where it all is with one that says there isn't anything and all space is open.
A proper wipe (or "full" format in Win7 and newer) will overwrite all the sectors.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/6396/the-vishera-review-amd-fx8350-fx8320-fx6300-and-fx4300-tested/6
http://www.legitreviews.com/amd-fx-8350-8-core-black-edition-processor-review_2055/13
http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/amd-fx-8350-processor-review,7.html
First one approaches 200W and last two exceed 200w at stock speeds.
>>54043299
The ASUS M5A99X (~$200) says it only supports up to 140W though. Isn't that stupidly low for an AM3+ socket CPU?
>>54043401
Welcome to AMD.
>>54043401

>>54043386
Thanks you and the others who bothered to answer. Will be trying go fix as said.
>>54043410
What am I supposed to do? I can't find a motherboard that supports more than 200w.
>>54043432
That one only supports 140w.
>>54043386
For me its so light I don't even notice it. I'm just wondering if I'm some fucking weirdo because my coworkers act like I'm fucking Hulk or something for carrying it around all day without complaining.
>>54043401
Go for a Sabertooth if you want a high end AM3+ board. Also I suggest going for an FX 8370. It's newer than the 9590's (which are "top" of the line, it's just an 8350 that could handle high voltages and OC-ed). The 8370 is made from better silicon and can go up to 4.6-4.8GHZ frequently
>>54043460
That restriction is not listed anywhere on that boards information
>>54043460
Those wattages are off 100%. There's no way the M5A99x can't handle (and even get a good OC) a 8350.
The AMD autodetector installer gets stuck at Analyzing System, is there a place I can get the drivers for my R9 270 and install them through Windows instead?
>>54043360
That's what I was thinking.
>>54043357
Currently at work, but heres my current specs.
>i7 870 4.2ghz
>hd 5770 cfx

Back then I wasn't using crossfire and my cpu was only 3.3ghz.
>>54043342
Should be similar in performance at stock.
Are there any volunteer computing projects that use mainly bandwidth?
I have crap toaster PCs but godly internet connection.
I've heard of Majestic-12 but they don't take new members for whatever fucking reason.
>>54043513
I'm thinking it might have been my oc out dodgy drivers.
I had pcie overclocked to 110mhz, which might have been fucking with performance.
>>54043396
Look around in settings. Google didn't standardize this shit enough so it's different on every goddamn phone.
Apart from that, factory reset maybe.
>>54043466
It's all what you're used to. I lugged around a 10 pound Pentium 4 laptop when those fat ones with desktop CPUs in them were the shit. Now I'm happier with a cruddy little netbook that just weighs a couple pounds.
>>54043501
Yes, where the website offers to auto detect, don't. There's a selector under it where you can select device type, family and exact model, and download the driver directly.
You can often also get drivers through Windows Update, but I wouldn't for a GPU since it won't give you the latest or include the full config utility.
You also have a choice here between classic CCC or Crimson.

8Pin power cables can give a little more 200W, and most motherboards can use 300W without problems.
If you are that worried get a I5-6600K or 4690K instead.
>>54043553
I already have a seedbox set up for that, but I can never seem to seed more than 3 MB/s, presumably because of the shit HDD the seedbox runs on.
I'm really looking for something that can easily take up like 80% of my 37.5 MB/s bandwidth.
Looking for best way to connect a wired 360 controller to a tablet for game emulators should I use a micro USB to female USB connector, or a otg cable to connect the controller
>>54043589
Well maybe you could look into setting up a mirror for some software you like that needs it. You'd probably have to get in touch with the devs for that though, I dunno.
>>54042754

>>54043574
I already own the fx8350. Getting a i5-6600K and a new motherboard would put me way out of my $200 budget.
What happens if my CPU draws more power than my motherboard can handle?
>>54043626
Your system wont be stable and turn off.
But is really rare that that happens unless you are doing some weird overclocking.
>>54043589
>I can never seem to seed more than 3 MB/s
What's the rated upload speed on your connection? Residential connections very often give more down than up.
>37.5 MB/s bandwidth
Is this megabytes or megabits? 37.5 mbyte/s would be 300 mbit/s, indeed an amazing connection.
>>54043626
My nigger. If you don't wanna OC you can even get a GA-970A-UD3. I have a FX-6300 OC-ed to 4.3GHZ on it.
>>54043539
>look around in settings
I've checked all through Security... Smart Lock is off and I disabled the PIN and set no security, and then re-enabled the PIN and it just doesn't lock, just turns off the screen until I hit the power button again and it's back to home screen.
No clue on what to do about the USB connection. Factory reset seems drastic after one day but heck, not sure what it wants.
>>54043658
I use MB/s. Megabytes per second.
My upload speed is about 20MB/s.
I was overclocking my computer but I smelled smoke so I quickly pulled the cord out the back. Will it be ok if I let it cool down and then turn the clock back down to normal?
>>54043666
Well it sounds fucky, so I would factory reset it. If that doesn't help, return it since it's defective in some way (or you managed to install malware on it).
>>54043658
Actually I'm not sure if my dl speed is 300 Mb/s or 500 Mb/s. The ISP said they were going to bump me up to 500 because they no longer offer the 300 Mb/s package, but there hasn't been any word on when they're doing that. They could have already done it but I haven't noticed.
>>54043686
Maybe. Most likely not. What the fuck did you do though?

Why is playing a 720p video @ 60fps in Chrome more CPU intensive than playing an actual game at 1440p @ 90fps?
>>54043708
Just the usual, I plugged it into a voltage amplifier and slowly cranked the voltage up while watching the temps and running Prime95. I expected the temps would go up gradually enough that I would have plenty of warning to scale it back down and find my optimum temp. Didn't expect it to jsut start smoking.
>>54043696
>ISP,city.
Not buying this shit
>>54043738
160Mb upload speed.
300Mb download speed.
I'm sure many ISPs advertise 300Mb download speeds, then have your upload speed be about half of that.
>>54043752

you're trolling right
>>54043664
Yeah dude, but some people here are suggesting that I wouldn't be able to use that motherboard. The only AM3+ motherboard I can find over 200w is the most expensive ASUS model and that's 220w, still below some of the charts earlier.
>>54043740
because chrome is using your cpu to play video. the game is using your gpu to render an image
>>54043686
We can't know what, if any damage was done until you turn it on.
Just leave it off long enough that the insanely high temperatures will cool off a bit, turn you fan to 100% and downclock.
>>54043762
Most isp's have it symetrical now.
You should really learn what megabits are,as you're inconsistant
300 megabytes per second, its 2400 megabits per second(the number they advertise their packages at)
You're looking at point to point fiber on that shit.
>>54040422
no one? ;_;
>>54043740
Because VP9 youtube streams are decoded by the CPU, very little hardware acceleration support exists for VP9 streams.
What CPU do you have?

That webm got me hyperventilating, fuck man
>>54043802
I think this behavior is dictated by a setting in the app itself, which is usually set by the developer and not easily changed by the end-user.
There might be some hack you can use in Xposed or something though
>>54043782
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4672
This is for the fucking 9590 which uses like 220w and it's a weaker board than the sabertooth. I think the 970 UD3 can handle a 8350 100%. It has a 8+2 power phase.
>>54043799
I like to use MB/s because who the fuck says "A typical CD can hold 5600 megabits of data"?
I believe it's fucking retarded to have internet connection specs use megabit/s instead of megabyte/s. I very specifically use MB/s when I mean megabytes, and Mb/s when I mean megabits.

Here you go. For the 970A UD3 which is cheaper. It can handle the 8350 just fine
>>54043832
You dont fucking use mbit when talking about storage you illiterate FUCK
Thats like saying metric fucking tons for a can of tuna
You're full of shit nothing offers 2.4gbit/s

They are two differnt mediums you fucking retard
BANDWITH is not storage
HARD STORAGE is not bandwidth
>>54043875
>You cant undo a refresh.
Why not? I'd think it should be fairly trivial in principle to hold onto its previous state for a while after refreshing the page. Hell, it already sort of does this if you click a link and then hit the back button, your forms and shit tend to go back to how they were. Just not on a refresh.

Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes.
>>54043896
Nice, you should be able to decode up to 4k VP9 streams stutter free.
>>54043893
They both quantify data.
The reason ISPs use bit/s to advertise their speeds is because the average joe things that Mb/s and MB/s are the same, so they think they're getting 8 times more than what they really are.
>>54043904
I wonder what sequential I/O speeds on tape are like now.
>>54043930
THEY FUCKING DONT
MEGBIT IS FOR TRANSMISSION OF DATA
MEGABYTE IS FOR THROUGHPUT AKA THAT FILE I DOWNLOADED IS 564.34MB WHICH I DOWNLOADED AT 2345234234.MBIT/S
FUCK
Post speedtest or fuck off
>>54043904
I dunno, these days with the limits you run into in transferring the data to/from your storage medium I think the gap between very fast internet connections and physically moving the data is closing fast. For example Wikipedia uses this example:
>Similarly, as of 2016 the highest capacity backup tape format available is LTO-7, with a capacity of 6 TB. If a tape of this capacity were sent by overnight mail and were to arrive around 20 hours after it was sent, the effective data rate would be 664 Mbit/s. With networking technology, this magnitude of speed over this distance would be very difficult to attain without a costly dedicated connection as one would likely need to use several hops and have a connection that is not oversubscribed.
But they completely ignore the amount of time it takes to get the data onto those tapes in the first place. Once you start to factor that in you probably could have just sent it faster over the network, assuming suitably high speeds. Similarly it may have to be copied back off the tapes on the other end, adding even more time to the process.
It only really seems practically to me to physically move the data medium as a time-saving measure when the data is already sitting on some portable form of storage that is ready for transport.

True. But you don't measure your butter in tons. Right?
>>54044140
You might if you're a freight driver or something.
>>54044140
A ton is 1000 kilograms.
A byte is merely 8 bits.
There's a very large difference in magnitude there.
>>54044153
I'm not saying it can't be used I'm saying bits instead of bytes have always been pushed by ISPs to measure band width because it seems like you're getting "more", so it's pretty much became standard.
>>54044169
A standard based on marketing folly.
