  1. How do I check that Windows Back-up is actually working?


    I just had to reload Windows 10 to solve an issue, and now !!! I find out that the Windows update to an external hard drive hasn't actually worked in over 2 years. Yes, I know the data since 2021 is gone. But short of switching to a Mac, how do I confirm that the back-ups are actually running? Since they claim success after manually initiating "back-up now", I can't rely on standard errors or status information. Hoping there's something for the simple user.

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
