  1. PC sometimes boots very slowly and in low resolution


    Good day everybody, So I recently got my hands on my dream game PC. RTX3080, Ryzen 5800x, 32gigs of Ram, etc, the whole shebang! And it's been an amazing experience for the most part. But the PC has something weird that I've never seen before. Sometimes, I'd say, 1 out of 6 boots averagely, it takes a long time to boot about 1 minute instead of the normal +-15 seconds, it doesn't send a signal to my monitor and then after about a minute, I get the Windows logon screen. Weird thing as well is that I'm using a 4K monitor, but once the system boots it's in 1024 x 768. There's also no way to cha

    Low Resolution

    Hello
    Despite trying to find the right info I am still no further forward I am having problems with low screen resolution on my Desktop PC 22" monitor even though I have had it set to 1024x768 and above the screen still looks massive, I have tried dpi,, make desktop icons smaller it still does not look right, I thought this may be down to the motherboard M5A78L-M Plus/USB3 on board vga (I will be getting a better MB a bit later on following suggestions from people on here suggested Thanks for the advice) I tried an old ATI 4600 which worked very well with Win XP with drivers newly downloaded from AMD this made no difference

    My laptop resolution is great at 1440 x 900 running the same operating systems with dual boot Win10 RS! and Win7 Pro with SP1

    I have tried searching forums, YouTube, Google and now out of ideas of what to try next?


    Thanks
    Smokes


    Sorry if I have posted in wrong section
