Its just the weather getting warmer.

Already tried and tried changing the battery. I guess there is some motherboard damage which got worse each time powered on/off because of expansion/contraction from temperature change.

Motherboard is asrock b75m gl tried 2 cpu, 2 power supplies cant get it to boot at all now.

stock cooler with push clips

Even the onboard will not output now. 1st time I notice issue, onboard was working, then gpu slot started working again. 2nd time, onboard stopped working, didn't take out gpu, after few reboots it worked. now nothing at all I suspect expansion/contraction from heat, caused by power off each...

Yes several, its not booting without the display as keyboard lights remain stuck

Thats what I try to do but had to power it off. It was up for a month no issues as I knew I had trouble getting it to post before.

Anybody? What would cause a deterioration in ability to post with each power off/on. 100% stable once it does. Still not got it up and running after trying all day. Other times this happened it eventually did but no luck so far. Dead motherboard?

Sounds similar to my issue I posted today. I tried changing cmos battery didn't work. Cant get it to post right now and had trouble before... but once it posts and up and running, stable for weeks.

So everything was working fine. Powered off pc, when went to power back on, no video output. Unplugged video cable from gpu and into onboard. Instant display, **** my graphics card is dead I thought. Not even showing in device manager. Took pc apart, reseated gpu, still no output from it. Put...

They don't make them for the fun of it of course they make profit!

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Ask for a partial refund as card is devalued without packaging

My ssd failed whilst having 100% health and 3+ years life remaining according to SSD life. So its practically useless in reality.

Well I browse a lot for various things, news, shopping, travel, netflix etc. Rarely turn off pc or close down the browser completely, usually left running in the background. I'd say a lot of ocuk members fit into that type of usage. Adding a second small ssd isn't sacrificial. It's the...

You also have crash recovery turned off + other mods? That would explain your low usage. For a typical user however who just installs firefox and browses away, it will use much more than 4gb a day imo.

What kind of browsing do you do for 4TB though and how long is firefox open for. Also I'd have doubts over process explorer accurately tallying up the data. In Windows resource monitor, a lot of the writes from firefox are classed under 'system' rather than firefox.exe My drive failed due to to...

Not inventing numbers, I have an ssd that only had firefox on it for a year and can see how much was written to it. Complete opposite of inventing. You don't know how long is left on the life of the crucial though. Mine seemed fine with 100% health reported until it suddenly failed, and I know...

It's not marginally tbh, it will double the lifespan. My 480gb sandisk extreme was killed in just over 4 years of daily use and that was with a drive that had a 3 year warranty. And around a year of that, I had the firefox on another drive but the other 3 years it was exclusively on the ssd that...

Better yet, a small ssd. Using a 64gb for the browser + some additional storage. Won't take up ram and won't vanish after a shutdown. Only costs ~30 pounds and will greatly improve the lifespan of your main ssd.

You can get the same performance and prolong the lifespan by putting your browser profile on a cheap secondary ssd
