    PCSPECIALIST BIOS not recognising drive

    https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1691459/Asus-Tuf-Gaming-X570-Plus.html?page=20#manual Here's a link to your motherboard manual, lay out pic. First one I found on Google. NVME drives are fairly easy to change and fairly easy to locate. See that layout page. Usually there's a cover, which is...

    PCSPECIALIST What I'm playing

    I'm STILL playing Days Gone. This will be my 5th play through. (Getting my moneys worth out of this new computer 😂 ) I'm also playing Rise of the Tomb Raider, again. I'm replaying all 3 of this series, I've done TR Reboot. Once I've finished the TR series, I'll go on to finish Star Wars: Jedi...

    PCSPECIALIST What are you driving at the moment?

    March this year has arrived, and almost passed. I am now a gentleman of leasure :LOL: Or officially an old b.., as I'm an OAP :cautious: My truck had over 610,000 km when I handed back its keys btw :) I finished work on Friday, my HGV licence ran out on Monday and, as is normal for vocational...

    PCSPECIALIST One-liners

    I don't bother either. I'd only be doing it for me, no-one else comes here and I live on my own. I spend Xmas day at my daughters house with my grandkids, and daughter obviously. I spend Boxing Day at my mothers house with all the extended family, 4 generations now. Only 15 of us sat down for...

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor suitable for high end PC gaming?

    I was, go for a curved if you're going w-i-d-e, ie 34" or wider. I love my monitor, it's imho fantastic, an enormous step up from my previous monitor. But, my budget was limited. I think you can now get much better for not much more money. And OLED has become much more affordable in the...

    PCSPECIALIST Monitor suitable for high end PC gaming?

    I got a Gigabyte M34WQ monitor, 3440 1440p, 34" across the diagonal. It's fantastic, I love it😃 And you can almost fit 2 normal screens across it, just a small overlap, great for moving files from one folder to another. But from using it, I'd say it's as wide as I would like to go with a flat...

    PCSPECIALIST What are you driving at the moment?

    We occasionally deliver to Tesco RDCs, but don't load from them 😃 It was New Years Eve, I figured folk would know I meant this year. Bloomin' Pedant 😜

    PCSPECIALIST What are you driving at the moment?

    The truck has just under 600,000 km on the clock now. That's a bit under the average for a 69 plate, I'd expect over the 600,000 to be honest. By the time I retire, in 3 months time, it will be over that milestone. I work for an International haulage company, but I do a mix of UK and European...

    My work toy. DAF XF 530, 6 x 2 mid lift, twin steer. My car is a bog standard Audi A4 TDI 144 bhp 14 plate. My bike is a Honda CB900F, 81 plate, 90bhp ish. My other bike is an '81 BMW R 65 with an R 80 motor in it and a Siderider Saluki sidecar. At best, bhp is about 30. I put 160,000 miles on...

    PCSPECIALIST New to PC gaming

    Yeah. Intel were the best and, as they had that reputation, quite a few people hang on to their belief that "Intel are the best". At present, wrong!

    PCSPECIALIST New NVidia control panel!!!!

    None that I'm aware of. Nvidia seems to release a Game Ready driver update every couple of weeks. It isn't unusual for a driver update to cause some problems with Days Gone, usually fairly minor but occasionally quite major. I expect that other games are affected too. The next update usually...

    PCSPECIALIST One-liners

    Me too. But, as a truck driver, that sort of thing is severely frowned on. Cars and vans scattered all over the motorways of UK and Europe wouldn't go down that well. Driving standards might improve though :ROFLMAO:

    PCSPECIALIST Well this is annoying :(

    I've done a Malwerbytes scan, which reported 0 problems. I scanned it several days ago, but as "There was something 'not right' about my computer", I thought it won't do any harm to check again. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean 'they aren't out to get you'. 😀

    PCSPECIALIST PC to return into Gaming

    The small 512Gb is your OS drive. There should be next to nothing else on it. It's small and fast, to load your OS on bootup and have your opening screen up in under a minute. The 2TB drive is for other programmes, particularly games and anything else that need fast loading. I have also...

    PCSPECIALIST Well this is annoying :(

    Ah, OK, thanks people 🙂 I've already got that manual somewhere on my computer FigmentOfYourImagination, but I couldn't access it until I got a working screen. As that was fairly late in the evening, I left it until today. That photo was a great help though, thanks 🙂 I'd forgotten that, about...
