New Build - USB Keyboard/Mouse Not Working

I was actually able to get windows reinstalled by attaching a PS2 keyboard. Once that was attached, both it and the USB keyboard seemed to work. The thing is, after I got it installed I rebooted and unplugged the PS2 keyboard. The USB still isn't working after booting into windows.

New Build - USB Keyboard/Mouse Not Working

Just overhauled my computer and I'm having trouble getting the USB keyboard and mouse to respond. They both work in the UEFI just fine but as soon as the "windows loading" screen comes up when booting to installation media, the lights on the keyboard/mouse go out and I am no longer able to...

Video Cards Keep Dying

Alright, thanks. I'll grab a UPS and a new DVI cable. Cooling shouldn't be an issue because I'm running this in an Antec P182 and all the cabling is run behind the motherboard.

Motherboard killing video card possible?

Is it possible for a motherboard to kill a video card? If so, how? Through a bad PSU? The reason I ask is because I've had to RMA 4 8800 GTX's to EVGA in the past couple of months because they always start artifacting and then blue screening after a couple of months. After this, even when...

Just purchased Canon SD1200IS and all of the pictures are worse than Canon A610...

I bought one of the SD1200's a few months back and ended up returning it. Compared to my parents SD1100, the picture quality was inferior, took much longer to focus and would always shoot at ~double the ISO when set it auto mode. It may have just been a defective camera, who knows. I liked the...

Do I need to lap the Tuniq 120?

I just recently got my new setup including a TT 120. It looked a little rough on the bottom but not a big deal really. Now its installed without lapping and I have my 6750 up to 3.33 GHz and its load temps are only ~45 C. So no, I wouldn't really worry about it unless you really want to! GL

Maxtor Hard Drive sounds like a music box

Dang Anita, As soon as I read the thread title I was thinking about the musical maxtor thread and was going to link it but you beat me to it. (Used to spend most of my time @ TIMO). I agree, you should try to backup your data and get a replacement ASAP.
