  1. Settings Menus Will Not Respond, Cannot Click Anything


    I just updated from Windows 7, and I wanted to change my desktop picture. I clicked on "Personalize" and this menu showed up:

    It was stuck like this. I could not click on any of the buttons on the side or anything. I tried going to my Settings from the start menu and this appeared:

    My mouse cursor was stuck as a blue spinning circle, and again I could not click on any of the options. This happens forevery settings menu I try to open on my computer. I have already tried several things to fix it, but they did not work. I tried running a SFC scan, but nothing came up. I ran a troubleshooter and it said nothing was wrong. I tried redownloading the Windows Apps through PowerShell, but that did not fix it either. I could not find anyone else having this issue online.

    :)

    Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

    Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
    Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
    Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

    NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
    But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
    What do you think?

    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.

    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
