How do I install Windows to a hard drive while my motherboard is in UEFI mode? Or how do I configure my UEFI to allow two drives running different operating systems to coexist?

As it currently stands, I have one hard drive running arch Linux in UEFI mode that can't be loaded in Legacy BIOS. In Legacy BIOS mode I can easily load my SSD running Windows.

I can't even boot from a CD or change boot order in UEFI. What's the problem? EVGA X99 FTW motherboard. 5820k CPU.

which speakers should i buy? i've narrowed it down to the three above, but i'm open to suggestions. budget is somewhere between 100 and 200€.

i'm coming from the Logitech G51 5.1, which were too heavy on the bass for me (even though i mainly like and listen to bass heavy music). before those i had the Logitech X-530 5.1, which were cheaper and sounded better to me, but they broke.
i don't think i really need surround sound anymore. i've been using my headphones for 3 years now, so i'm used to stereo. a subwoofer is not necessary either, i don't want to annoy my neighbors.

i'm leaning towards the edifier speakers, though i won't be using the bluetooth capabilities. i don't have an AMP and basically i have no idea what i'm doing.

I have a weird problem with Windows, maybe /g/ can help?

When i turn my computer on, everything works fine, up until the point where windows wants me to enter my password. Then the screen goes black. It says "no input detected!" on the screen. I can still type in my password and use the computer of course, but the screen is black.

If i run the computer in safe mode it works just fine. Which makes me believe there's some program that auto-launches with windows that makes the screen / graphics device drivers not work. However when i'm in safe mode i can't launch catalyst control center and i can't change / remove it with the "Add or remove programs" function in windows. I'm running the PC in safe mode now of course. Any ideas?

What power supply?

Did you plug in the cables to the graphics card itself?

Is your bios set to output from the iGPU or PCI-e slot?

Did you try another cable/connection?

Did you try another monitor?

>What power supply?
SeaSonic 650
>Did you plug in the cables to the graphics card itself?
Yes
>Is your bios set to output from the iGPU or PCI-e slot?
I'm not sure how do I try this
>Did you try another cable/connection?
I tried an older graphics card and it booted just fine
>Did you try another monitor?
Don't have another
>>
>>52551832
It'll be a setting...in your bios

if nothing else just RMA the card after trying all the connections on it

that's what happens when the laser is unable to focus on the disc

can be caused by several things, like;
- the disc is unsupported (such as using a dvd in a cd drive, or bluray in a dvd drive)
- the disc is upside down
- the laser is dirty
- the disc is dirty
- the laser is broken

i686 and x86_64/AMD64
NOT IA64 (yes, it stands for intel architecture 64, but it's Itanium, intel's failed 64bit architecture)
>>
>>52551848

Well I've just tried both options, no difference.

This graphics card can't be fucked right? The lights come on, the fans spin. I have both the 8 and 6 pin plugged in. Fuck man.
>>
>>52552030
I don't know, try all the connections on it
>>
>>52552030
>The lights come on, the fans spin

That just means it receives power, the GPU itself might still be kaputt

Try asking in other places like reddit and toms hardware and such before RMAing

I hope it's not. I ordered this thing in december

R9 290x or 390? Looking for a new gpu right now what do you gents think? Any of you guys own them?
>>
>>52552220

They're almost the same. The 290X is a tiny bit more powerful but it also gets hotter and uses more power, and the 3xx series has some newer features. Also the 390 has double the VRAM so there's that

I'd get the 390.

Encryption only works if both ends are using it. I'm basically talking about a program that scrubs and inject data to your packets to make it sort of work like a VPN would but without the ass lag

Loading images on 4chan in Chrome seems to be slower than it should be, especially considering that I have a fairly bitchin' connection and most other things load quickly. What do?
>>
>>52552569
use a browser that doesn't waste your bandwidth by prefetching content you don't need
>>
>>52552567
You gotta be more specific to what protocol or application you're using. Encryption is always an option. VPN is the only spoofing you can do. You can't change or hide your IP address, or packets will never make it back. You could spam the same packet with decoys but then your asking to get blacklisted

then clicking next should submit this form to the php scripts which evaluates this form.
Is thi possible if so how?

no since you're pretty much making a vector. what I mean by blowing up is only blowing up the marching ants selection not the actual image inside the selection. Use it as a reference to make your own at a higher res or just trace it in illustrator.

Try a different decoder. I usually change it if it's stuttering or so. If this doesn't work use VLC on the tablet or find the MX codecs
>>
>>52553418
Tried using the HW decoder with mx player and it fucks the screen up, it shows everything in green like vlc sometimes does when it stutters, it only plays with the SW decoder. I've also already installed the DTS and AC3 Audio codecs.

Then it doesn't matter, if all you're doing is gaming get a 1080p IPS display, whatever is cheap with decent reviews

or pony up the $300 or so dollars for the 21:9 1080p Free-sync display

not so much for the 21:9 aspect ratio, but more so because it's about the cheapest IPS free-sync display around

if you're doing productivity get the cheapest 1440p IPS display

My chrome has been having the weirdest problem like. Chrome and only chrome.
