    It's likely that you needed to install the drivers. Windows update wouldve done this automatically for you.

    PCSPECIALIST 2 RMAs in 7 months

    I've had to uninstall the GPU drivers using DDU (in safe mode) so that the system is running on a basic display but as soon as I try doing a fresh install of GPU drivers (through the AMD website and not the software), windows tells me that there's an error due to a GPU hardware fault. I think I...

    Thanks for your reply and explaining what the potential issue is. Unfortunately it is a pre-built system. I got it under the next-day PCs sections. Judging by your explanation of how the power works, I’m thinking of upgrading the PSU at the very least but that won’t fix the heating issue. I...

    PCSPECIALIST 2 RMAs in 7 months

    This was a pre-built system so there's not much I can do about this now. When I uninstalled the graphics drivers and ran on just the basics, I got display but as soon as I tried to install any drivers, the screen went black. I'm not sure how that could be a cpu issue?

    PCSPECIALIST Problem with PC since day 1

    I appreciate the advice. A lot of people who want pre-built PCs assume that because it's already pre-built, it will be suitable for their needs. A lot of people won't have this in-depth' computer knowledge like you guys and wouldn't even know what they're looking at when doing research. It's...

    PCSPECIALIST Problem with PC since day 1

    Whilst having a lower-end motherboard isn't ideal for my CPU and GPU, the issues I was having have been rectified (for now) by disabling hyperthreading in bios. I got the information from here. I'm not too sure what hyperthreading is all about and whether it limits the CPU, but for some reason...

    PCSPECIALIST Problem with PC since day 1

    I have already requested an RMA today. What's strange is I can play other games just fine, it's just this one game it crashes to desktop all the time. I'm not too sure why PCS haven't put together the specs properly. This was under the pre-built section on their website. Surely they must know...

    PCSPECIALIST Problem with PC since day 1

    I bought the PC that was already pre-built by PC Specialists, so not sure why they're selling systems that clearly won't work. What is it exactly needs upgrading/replacing?
