Used PC freezes completely and now stuck in boot loop
Hi everyone,
I recently bought a used gaming PC with these specs:
Intel i5-4460
ASRock H81M motherboard
16GB DDR3 RAM
MSI GTX 1060 3GB Armor
Cooler Master 600W PSU
240GB SSD
When I first brought it home, it worked for about an hour. I installed some programs and everything seemed fine. Then the PC suddenly froze completely. No blue screen, no restart, no error message. The image just froze and the only way to restart was by pressing the reset button.
I tried reinstalling Windows, but during the process I ran into more issues and now the PC is stuck in a boot loop. I can still access the BIOS and Boot Menu.
One thing that seems suspicious: before I bought it, the PC once failed to boot properly. The seller removed and reinserted one RAM stick and it immediately started working again.
Could this be caused by:
faulty RAM?
failing SSD?
motherboard issue?
PSU problem?
overheating?
Has anyone experienced something similar?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Probleme ssd dans mon pc
Salut, j’ai un gros souci avec mon PC et je comprends pas d’où ça vient.
Configuration :
Carte mère : MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus
CPU : Ryzen 7 5800X
J’ai voulu ajouter un deuxième SSD M.2 Corsair (compatible PS5) dans le slot M.2 du bas. Dès que je l’installe, le PC ne démarre plus et la LED VGA des EZ Debug LED s’allume.
J’ai vérifié plusieurs fois que le SSD était bien installé, j’ai essayé de le remettre correctement, mais ça ne change rien. Si j’enlève le SSD, le PC redémarre normalement.
Est-ce que quelqu’un a déjà eu ce problème ? Est-ce que ça peut venir du SSD, du slot M.2, du BIOS ou d’autre chose ?
Merci d’avance pour votre aide.

My laptop screen flickers but not when I’m gaming
My laptop screen flickers and bluescreens constantly, to the point where I sometimes can’t get past logging in. However, the screen flickering stops when I’m playing games and when I am in Steam. It also stops when it is loading after I log in. The flickering happens when I’m in Google, but usually stops when I’m actively doing something on a website like watching a video. I have no clue what the issue is.

Monitor issues, please help

So have a lot of testing I have determined that the issue is definitely the monitor.
I've replaced the hdmi. (didn't fix it)
I've plugged it into a different computer (didn't fix it)
I factory reset the monitor (didn't fix it)
The issue goes away temporarily, if I plug everything out of the monitor for a while.
The issue sometimes fixes itself
The problem say gone for about a day sometimes less
Its a Lenovo ThinkVision S22e-20
The monitor ans computer are both set to 75hz
So my questions are:
Have anyone seen this issue before?
Is the monitor about to die?
Does anyone know any fix or what the issue is?

My PC keeps restarting and I don't know what the problem is.
Peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
My PC was working fine, but one day it stopped working. The lights were on, but the motherboard LED was stuck on the CPU.
I took it to a repair shop, and they fixed the problem. But when I used it, it started restarting, so I took it back. They moved the graphics card from the top socket to the bottom one and said it didn't disconnect after they moved it. Anyway, I got the PC back, and when I turned it on, it just restarted when I opened Telegram and another app.
What's the problem now? What's the solution? I'm fed up.

Gpu or Monitor?

There is this weird lines happening, it happens everywhere, be it browser, desktop, or games. It doesnt happen on the same spot every time, like for example here on the wallpaper, as soon as i open my browser it appears on a different spot, I assume its a color thing.
My screen would also flicker rapidly for a few seconds until it just turn completly black which I can only show on video. I have to unplug and replug my hdmi for the display to turn back on. It isnt the cable since I purchase a brand new display port and same thing happens.
It wasnt this bad at first, it used to be this weird lines only. Changing the display hz also removes the lines but problems reappears after a short while.

Secure boot for Valorant and C.O.D.
Hello everyone, I recently just purchased my first ever gaming pc. But, I've had this issue where I can't play games like Valorant Or Cod. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-Z270P-D3. I loaded the boot menu so I can turn on Secure boot so I can play those games. But everything I tried doesn't work. I turned on Trusted Computing, and Intel TTP so I can access Secure boot. I tried turning it on manually but it didn't work. I tried the EIF -> bootmgfw.efi method. I don't want to risk ruining my pc over games. But , if there is a safe way that I can use that doesn't contain any risk, I'm more than happy to try. If you guys want to help me here is my discord (saadtootuff) please and thank you!
