  1. Desktop Issues


    So, sometimes, when I try to open my action center by clicking on it using the mouse, the icons will be like this, as an image attached below. However, the action center GUI will not open and to solve this, I would ususally use the Task Manager to restart explorer.exe to solve this problem. Another problem I have is that sometimes, while I am working, even if the computer is actively in use, both screens will black out until I move my mouse again to wake it up. Is my explorer.exe corrupted? do i have to use the media creation tool? I have lots of programs and files so i do not want to reset m

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
