I have a camera-free household. Hard to believe, I'm sure. No cell phone, etc. I'm an antique.
Your second paragraph is correct--"sometimes they don't even connect together". That's what I see.
It's all inside a single sheath that is split out into 2 separate plugs on the motherboard end...
Usandthem:
That link just takes me to Newegg main page, not a specific product.
I'm not arguing and appreciate your assistance.
As usual, the manuals are woefully inadequate and Googling hasn't led me to any answers.
Have you ever seen a PSU with split plugs like mine that require a...
Larry:
You can put the 2 parts right next to each other and try to manipulate them as if they were linked or locked together, but they don't connect to each other to form a single unit.
Each has a separate clip and that's the problem. If you orient both clips to 12 oclock, no go---only the...
I have no idea if it's required and the manual says only that if you have a 4 pin connector, to use the 4 pins to the right. Which I did.
Additionally:
My 8 pin plug is divided into 2 parts, each with 4 pins. They don't fit together into a single plug. You attach them separately or just use...
I'm stumped after 15 or 20 hours of fiddling.
I’ve built a few PCs, but I’m not expert and have NO experience with Asrock boards, UEFI, or Skylake. So I don't know what to expect when you hit the power button.
New parts:
Intel i5-6600K processor
AsRock Z170m Extreme 4 micro ATX...
I'd make an image of the existing Vista installation so I always had something to fall back on.
Windows 10 supposedly will allow you to revert to the previous installation for 30 days, but I wouldn't fully rely on that. Even if it works, you'd be out of luck after 30 days.
I'd imagine there is...
I don't think it's a matter of "installs of Office left".
I'm assuming you have 2010 Home and Student or a similar package that allows you 3 installations.
That's the point.
Three working installations at any given time.
You can install as often as needed provided you don't exceed...

Craig:
What makes you think the above product for $199.99 is "retail"?
It might be. I don't know. Why do you think so?
I don't see "retail"...
Is it known for a fact that there is a "retail" version of Win 10, in the same sense that there used to be retail versions of Win 7 that were clearly marked as such by vendors?
I thought I'd read that the "OEM" versus "retail" distinction has been discontinued with Win 10. No? Yes?
Craig: What...
Most would tell you to use third party---Macrium Reflect Free Edition being a popular choice.
The built-in Windows tool works, but it's not particular flexible and can be confusing. It's just cranky.
I certainly would NOT "create an image on a separate partition". Put it on another drive...
If I wanted to back up, I'd just store images of the Home Premium and Professional system partitions on the external. If disaster strikes, restore those images as necessary. Restoration is typically a 20 or 30 minute job.
I'd probably use Macrium or some similar imaging application.
Rather...
1: I've made and restored images, but never from an NAS. I wouldn't think the procedure would be much different. I don't know what app you are using to to make the images, but I'd use something like Macrium.
2: I think MS will frown, assuming you have just one Win 7 license and then used the...
Generally, yes----assuming you have checked fan speeds, temperatures, and voltages with a hardware monitoring program. I'd probably benchmark the hard drives to confirm they are in the ballpark. You might make a spreadsheet of some of these values so you have a baseline to refer to as time goes...
I'm not exactly positive what an "Asus recovery USB" is since I don't use pre-built PCs, but I'm guessing you could--assuming the SSD is as large or larger than the original hard drive. If it isn't, I'd guess it would fail due to a lack of space.
That would take you back to a factory state--as...
