  1. Is This Weird?


    So earlier in the year, I believe two days after the release of the game Valorant I took my gaming PC to a lil shop to get fixed (MSi GS63VR Stealth Pro). The man had me leave my password to log in so I did, (issue was hardware but whatever) when I went to pick it up he told me that the password I left him didn't work, but when I tried it it worked on the first go. After that, some random days when I'd boot up my PC from sleep it would tell me that I had entered a faulty password too many times and I had to enter A1B2C3 to try again, even though this was my first time booting up the computer for awhile. That stopped shortly, but to this day it seems when I first boot up my PC I get the message "wrong password." I wasn't concerned about it for awhile but today when I booted up my PC and it showed the password bar, I saw a bunch of random letters being typed and then entered incorrectly. I'm kinda curious if this should be cause for concern, because I don't think its much but glitch.

    :)

    Weird Overclock

    This is not weird in any way. 1600MHz idle is normal for i7 3770K, it's called Speed Step. The CPU will not stay at the max turbo speed or over clock unless under load.

  3. Weird Noise after Anniversary Update

    Hello John,

    Let’s check what is causing that weird sound on your laptop.

    Based on the link that you had provided, it seems that it’s either your CPU fan or Hard drive which is creating that sound.

    If it’s the CPU fan, it might be an issue due to heavy processing, processor heating up or changes made during the update. If it’s your Hard drive, the issue might be with HDD performance. We suggest you to back up all your data to your external drive
    to prevent data loss.

    Follow these steps to resolve your issue:

    Step 1: Check your Task Manager

    Close all applications and check in task manager for any high usage of resources by any process.

    • Press Ctrl + Shift+ Esc together to open task manager.
    • Click on more details and check for any apps that is taking more resources.
    • Take note of any Applications that are taking High CPU usages and try to disable it if it’s not that important.
    Step 2: Start your computer in Safe Mode

    Safe mode will start computer with basic drivers to check what might be causing the issue in normal functioning of computer. Check if the weird sounds are still happening.

    Start computer in Safe Mode

    Step 3: Run Hardware and Device troubleshooter

    • Press Windows + W, and type troubleshooting.
    • From the search list, click on troubleshooting.
    • On the left pane click on view all to get the list.
    • Click on hardware and devices troubleshooter.
    • Follow the on screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting.
    Hardware and device troubleshooter is an inbuilt troubleshooter that will find the issues with hardware devices and try to fix them automatically.

    Let us know what happens.

    Is This Weird?

    Weird text outlining- Windows 10

    Hi,

    Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.


    • What is the exact issue that you’re facing with Windows 10?

    • What exactly do you mean by weird text outlining?

    • Are you facing any issue with applications?
    In the screenshot, I am unable to see any weird outlining. But if you are seeing any issue with the display then I suggest you to try installing all the pending Windows Updates and check for the issue. If the issue still persists then try changing
    the resolution and check.

    Thanks and regards.
