  1. Pc goes past bios and shuts down immediately at lock screen.Restart cycle


    Hi, my pc while running normally , sometimes shuts down randomly and after it restarts it goes past the bios and just when i enter the pass key it shuts down again , and then the restart cycle occurs. This has happend quite a few times while gaming , sometimes the display goes off and i can hear background music , sometimes it shuts down and does restart cycle. I changed cpu thermal paste but issue continues. It is quite random as sometime even when i game for hours it works perfectly, but sometime this issue occurs. Plz help in indentifying the issue.

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

    PC screen goes blank when attempting to enter UEFI/BIOS

    I am following the steps below to get into BIOS, but when I click restart at the end, my pc restarts, but never enters BIOS. It shows the pc make (Asus) and then goes to a blank screen.

    I try hitting f2 or delete in this blank screen after a while, bit this resolves nothing.

    Is there something else I should be doing or something I should do once the screen is blank?

    Navigate to settings. ...

    Select Update & security.

    Select Recovery from the left menu.

    Click Restart Now under Advanced startup. ...

    Click Troubleshoot.

    Click Advanced options.

    Select UEFI Firmware Settings.

    Click Restart.

    Pc goes past bios and shuts down immediately at lock screen.Restart cycle

    PC hibernates / goes into sleep mode upon logout / screen lock

    I am using my work computer. It's a laptop with a power connection (not running on battery.) The laptop is hocked up to two monitors (a total of three monitors, counting the laptop's own screen - I usually keep my laptop closed, however.)
    Since I am at work I always lock the screen when I leave my computer. (I use the windows+L shortcut to lock the screen.) This all works fine.

    However, after about a minute the computer goes into sleep mode / hibernation. At least I think it does, because the two monitors goes black - and it takes a few seconds to "wake up the system" (the monitors doesn't come back to life immediately when I press a key on the keyboard / move the mouse, as they would if a screen saver was active.)
    This is very annoying if I step away from my computer for only a short while (like going to the bathroom.)

    Here's what I want:
    With power (not running on battery):
    When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 15 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

    Without power (running on battery):
    When I lock the screen, I want the screen to stay on for 1 minute, then go to screen saver for 5 minutes, then go to hibernation/sleep mode.

    My best bet is that this is some sort of power saving scheme thingie, but I can't seem to figure out how to configure it to do what I want. Can someone please help me with a step-by-step guide to configure my system the way I want? Thank you.
