i'm having some very weird issues with my new pc

it was running fine for a couple of days, but when i woke up yesterday morning it was turned off, so i turned it on and left for work

when i got home, one of my monitors (connected via hdmi) had signal and no video, the other (dvi) had nothing, so i rebooted

i was able to get it working for a short time until the displays went to sleep, at which point i couldn't get video

tried a bios update, swapped in an older gpu (which worked fine) and reinstalled nvidia drivers, but once i rebooted with the new gpu nvidia prompted me to install the exact same drivers again

tried a windows 10 refresh too, no dice :pwn:

anything in event log? what gpu, are monitors connected to just it or just mobo or both?

can't check the event log because i literally can't get video anymore, only signal via dvi, and no integrated gpu because apparently ryzen doesn't have that

it's a gtx 1080 ti and both monitors are connected to it

so you are stuck with pc that shows no video on either monitor no matter circumstances, or what? can you try to boot into safe mode, by keyboard mashing if you can't see bios?

kinda want to suggest to check gpu physically, but that would be weird place for problem to hide, internal connectors don't slowly slip out over the course of a few days

i tried reseating both the new gpu and the pci-e power connectors

i just got it on monday too, and it was running just fine, so i can't imagine what would've happened in the course of 48 hours to make this happen

bad news: it poo poo the bed again

windows device manager reported that the gpu was stopped because it was "reporting issues", so i reinstalled nvidia drivers and tried to launch a game which immediately crashed

Take a disk image copy (dd, DriveImageXML, etc) with whatever raw copy mode to get what you can off the failing disk as fast as possible in a stabilized state. Restore /mount that and I'd run GetDataBackNTFS against it. Worth the $50 or whatever.

i wouldn't even bother posting if it didn't

for some reason my usb hdd dock isn't turning up in my ubuntu vm, so that's nice!

i wanted to use dd to make a sparse copy of the drive since i don't have over much space atm

yeah gddrescue from linux to make a disk image from as many of the sectors as you can read, if you can pull the files off that then great. if not, getdatabackntfs to try to reconstruct the filesystem enough to get em. if that doesnt do it, its about a grand to get drivesavers to look at it if they backburner it

i'm kind of obsessed with mike and kevin and bill

also all mst3k and cinematic titanic

i'd never have seen the room or the twilight movies or the avengers without that they just barf out dad jokes constantly throughout

especially great is that they did probably one of the best movies ever and acknowledged that they probably shouldn't be making fun of it but, silly hats*

i hope they tone it down a bit

i think they did a little last season just calmed down, or maybe i was just acclimating to it but you can't make that many bad jokes that fast and expect the audience to really hang with it

although the jokes in early mst3k were great because they slipped so much progressive politics in and poo poo i didn't catch a bunch of it but it's there if you listen

one option I’m fond of is to just not watch them

if you really need to, lego Star Wars has the same story but without dialog and you play it instead of just watching it

since you're only getting laserdisc-grade quality out of the hastily mashed together pile of 50 different sources including some random tv broadcasts, just watch a nicely cleaned up laserdisc rip.

alternately one of the like 3 dozen star wars blu-ray releases has DVD transfers of the theatrical cuts on its bonus discs

i'd say it would be good to watch stars war if you're about ten years old

cuz it was something of a revelation to me when i got to stay up late with all three vhs tapes and just space out

buuut there are so many more fun scifi tv shows and movies that are 10 y/o appropriate you could probably take a pass on that tired old religion
