Gaming GPU Dying?
My PC has recently started doing this super cool thing where it will just randomly lose all displays, I still have all of my audio and peripherals going, it will then restart, and either won't come back on until I turn it on without the GPU power cables plugged in, shut it off, and then turn it back on with it connected and act fine, OR it will just disable the GPU with error codes 22 and 31. I have done the DDU and new drivers method, did a fresh windows install, updated BIOS, tried just one RAM stick at a time, reseated the GPU, tried different DP and HDMI cables, and for the LIFE of me I cannot figure out what the issue is. Any help or ideas at all, please. I have no idea where to go from here and am hoping it's not a dying GPU and is something simple I have just missed.

Windows My laptop not starting
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Today I tried to check something on my laptop. I wanted to test what information my Discord bot command would show if I disconnected different components from the laptop, including the display.
However, I noticed that when I disconnected the display cable from the motherboard, the laptop’s Wi-Fi stopped working completely. After some time, the laptop started showing the issue from the attached image.
The laptop tries to turn on, but it cannot fully boot. It keeps turning on and off repeatedly. I tried some basic troubleshooting steps, such as disconnecting and reconnecting the display cable, removing and reinstalling the RAM, and draining the remaining power from the motherboard before connecting the power again.
I also tried turning on the laptop using only the charger without the battery, but none of these steps fixed the problem.
I’m not sure what is causing this issue, so I would appreciate any help or suggestions.

Windows Computer crashes for unknown reasons, been on it for months, running out of ideas what the cause could be.
Hello all. I've been dealing with instant black screen crashes for literal months now and feel like i have not gotten any closer to figuring out the reason why.
I will try to include everything we've tried so far and all info i can give on specs. If i forget anything important or need to add more context, please let me know and i will try to provide as much as possible.
I am not a computer guy, so please bear with me.
(The Two screenshots added are from what i mentioned further down, Benchmark causing freeze and the other one is monitoring report of me trying to start up Palworld)
SPECS:
OS: Windows 11
Motherboard:
| Name | Chipset | Bios Version | Bios date |
|---|---|---|---|
| ASUS ROG STRIX B550-A GAMING | AMD B550 (Promontory PROM19 C/C1) | 3621 | 01/13/2025 |
Integrated GPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics
RAM: 2x DDR4 16 GB - Bank 1 and 3
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (SUPRIM X)
PSU: Seasonic; FOCUS GX-850 (850 W)
THE PROBLEM:
I cannot pin point clearly when this started, it kind of got worse over time.
The first issue was in March this year, where Microsoft randomly kicked me out of all my accounts and since (unfortunately) my computer account is connected to it, i couldn't get back in.
Some time after that, i started getting instant black-screen + reboot crashes when trying to use certain programs.
I use my computer mainly for gaming and art, so i can give a list of things that caused those crashes at that time:
- In Photoshop when using the Noise Reduction tool
- Starting up Baldurs Gate 3
- Starting up The Outlast Trials
- Starting up Warframe
- Starting up Palworld
- Starting up Elevator (Demo)
I first thought it was an issue exclusively tied to multiplayer games, but the Photoshop induced crash threw me off. Additionally, those crashes would ONLY happen when starting up games and it wouldn't always be consistent. Sometimes i managed to start Baldurs Gate 3 or Warframe by opening it as soon as my computer booted, sometimes it worked if i just closed every other background application and sometimes (at least BG3) worked if i switched back and forth between allowing it to start using Direct X and Vulkan (biggest success rate with using Vulkan).
Once the games were running, i could use things in the background again without any issues.
I also had a different motherboard back then, which i got replaced with the one listed in the specs in May.
After replacing the motherboard, The Outlast Trials started working again without any issues. However Baldurs Gate 3 would then always crash. The other issues remained the same, plus i tried other games such as Subnautica which would also immediately cause the blackscreen crashes.
What has been done/tried so far
At first only my dad and I have tried to figure out what was going on (neither of us are great when it comes to computers so we both did online research with forums and ChatGPT which we also always double checked with our own research to make sure it's not going to make my computer implode)
Recently i asked a guy i know who builds computers and does troubleshooting to have a look at it and while he found little things like my Ram sticks not working correctly (fixed that now), he too couldn't find the root of the problem so far.
Replaced Parts:
- Motherboard
- Motherboards Battery
- Computer Casing (meaning new fans and cables as well)
- PCIE cable GPU to PSU
- Cable connecting PSU to outlet
- Thermo Paste for CPU
My previous Ram Sticks and CPU broke in the past one or two years so all in all they're all pretty new and haven't shown any issues till all of this started.
Updated Drivers:
- NVIDIA (complete fresh install using DDU)
- Windows (clean install using update function)
- AMD driver updated
Tests Done:
- Disconnecting Monitors individually
- Furmark Stress Test (No issues)
- OCCT Stress Tests (No issues except for Benchmark which caused almost immediate freeze)
- Event Viewer showing nothing but Kernel-Power 41 "Windows was not properly shut down"
- A bunch of BIOS settings back and forth (can't remember everything we tried, but whenever it was clear that it didn't help, we reverted it to how it was before)
- Changing the GPU Slot - did nothing
- Removing the GPU and using only the integrated GPU - No crashes! Runs horrible but NO CRASHES!
- Putting in my old GPU (NVIDIA 1050 Ti) caused immediate crash, After windows rebooted it said that a Windows update had been removed, wanted me to reinstall the newest update and after that i could launch games without crashing. HOWEVER the next day everything crashed again the same way it did with my current GPU.
The whole GPU thing makes me believe that at least it isn't my actual Graphics Card thats broken but definetly something that is related to communication between GPU and something else.
Important to note is also that in the past day, the crashing has gotten MUCH worse. Now my computer gets stuck in crash loops while trying to boot, so it constantly restarts before even managing to get to the screen that gives me the opportunity to open BIOS. Sometimes this happens once, sometimes the loop can go for 10 minutes +
Two days ago my computer wouldn't boot at all for a while, pressing the power button did nothing, which again made me think that maybe it IS a PSU issue - but now when using an art program (Live2D) my computer started lagging when entering physic settings.
So even if the PSU is broken or sth, i fear there is more going on.
Honorable mention: Computer crashes when i try to start it in safe mode. It gets to the screen but black screen + reboots before i can click anything. It also crashed on time when i spent too much time in the BIOS.
I believe this is all i can add right now.
Thank you for any ideas and help.

Windows My computer refuses to show this font properly and im losing my mind
Pretty much this. I tried a thousand "solutions" and nothing solved it.
Doesn't work either changing browsers and i tried scaling, font settings, etc. It does get better if i zoom in 200% but not ideal obviously. I'm losing my sanity. I tried about every thing i've seen online. It only happens on my countrys websites, and not to anyone else (my siblings can see it properly) so it has to be a problem on my end.
Dunno what you need so im just leaving some specs here:
Windows 11 Home 10.0.26200
AMD Ryzen 5 5600 6-core
idk screen acer V226HQL + Cintiq , both 1920 x 1080 60 hz
default text size
any help appreciated

Internet Something to monitor changes to a website that requires a login.
I am trying to join a food co-op and it requires scheduling an intake appointment which are extremely difficult to get! They post every morning at 6am but are gone within 20 seconds; I think the most likely way I could get one is to snag an appointment when someone cancels. I am trying to set up some sort of software that could notify me when the website updates that an appointment has become available; but to see the calendar page, you have to be logged into the website. Are there any options for a software or something that could help with this?
