If there are local computer sale/repair shops nearby, take the system to them and ask them to troubleshoot. They are likely to have spares and tools to identify the fault. They might charge you something like 500 - 700 Rs or less but you transfer the issue to them.

Assuming you are in need of such a device, if it does not exist, did you try the trick I told you in your previous thread on the same topic? *geek.digit.in/community/threads/are-there-any-wired-speakers-with-mic.212345/ You can give your recommendations thru the contact us form or email...

*support-en.wd.com/app/products/downloads/softwaredownloads Apart from third-party tools like crystaldiskinfo, hdsentinel etc, use the WD's own proprietary tools and check the health of the drive. Linked above. I can think of 'WD Drive Utilities' tool from the link above. HDDs are not...

USB 2 port offers 5V 500mA max whereas USB 3 offers 5V 900 mA. So USB 3 has more power and specially 2.5” HDDs with moving parts may sometimes need that much of power to operate normally. External HDD might not reliably work when plugged into USB 2 port or used with USB 2 cable. Only very low...

I suggest you also try Clean Boot approach and test it out. This will temporarily hide all non MS services. *support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd

So far I have never encountered a loose SATA port. Generally they are firmly fitted to the board. Was the system drive on that loose SATA port? Bad SATA cable, loose port, too much bend in the cable etc might give rise to CRC errors. Keep a check on SMART Parameters using tools like...

Download memtest86 *www.memtest86.com/download.htm It has exe to write bootable image to usb pen drive. Create a bootable USB using a working Windows PC. Boot thru it and test RAM (I suggest one stick inserted at a time) for at least 3 passes. Check the health of the other HDDs as well...

Check Event Viewer for any meaningful messages next time it happens. Even if you need a hard break, Windows might have recorded system/application events in case any driver is crashing or any other cause.

May be this thread on Reddit might have the explanation you are looking for?? The difference in FPS may be contributing to increases in Pitch by semitone? *www.reddit.com/r/ELI5Music/comments/2s3c4v/why_is_popular_music_in_films_always_pitched_up/ I notice that the song ‘Kaun Tuje’ from...

@harsvp – Your WD 1 TB HDD has developed uncorrectable sectors. What this in a way means is that firmware tried to relocate them but finally gave up. They may never be corrected and if it contained any data, it’s gone. Current pending sector count may be reversible after a full low-level...

As I mentioned earlier, I always share my alternate num to discuss out things. I never shared my main num though. The alternate is prepaid and I recharge it only on need basis else it's off. I found people cribbing about every penny they spend in getting the item. e.g. to come to place x, I...

A few suggestions... If Fast Boot is enabled in Firmware (BIOS/UEFI) disable that in both BIOS as well as Power Options in Win11 Check if there’s any previous restore point available on System drive and try restoring to an earlier state Run Live Linux for a few hours and observe how it behaves...

Hi, I have sold a few phones, laptops & Desktop parts on OLX. I kept a different pre-paid SIM for this purpose and never shared my original number with them. With a different SIM I share the number with them and interact with them. I support them for a few days after sell if the need be but...

Check again with Clean Boot approach. Search google how to boot ur Windows 10/11 in Clean Boot mode, if you are not familiar. Also make sure that if there's an option called eHCI Handoff, it's enabled in the Firmware. By default it should be.

Some AC circuits have additional insulation layer and they may not strictly need 3 Pin plug. It’s generally called double insulated design. However I suppose your PC in question is a desktop connected to your UPS. It could be that there’s a fault in UPS. Try plugging the PC PSU directly to wall...
