    PCSPECIALIST Camera not working

    That's done it! Thanks! I didn't even realise that was possible. However, I did record the Task Manager with OBS during startup a little while ago and narrowed it down to a few programs, including "FN hotkeys and OSD," because the camera went off immediately before they appeared. So, I might...

    PCSPECIALIST Camera not working

    I run windows updates when they are downloaded. I did have OBS, but I installed that months before the camera stopped working. I uninstalled it, but it didn't solve anything.

    PCSPECIALIST Camera not working

    I purchased my laptop from PCS in 2020. The camera was working fine until a few weeks ago. Now, when I open the Windows 10 camera app, I get an error saying that it can't detect the camera. I've noticed that I can start the camera for a few seconds at startup, so I'm guessing something is...

    PCSPECIALIST Quick check

    This is a work laptop, so it will be for streaming meetings and stats analyses. I'm mostly interested in the temperature of the M.2 drive. I know they can get a little hot but I don't know how well that's managed in a laptop. Also, does anyone know how good the integrated webcam is? Is it...

    PCSPECIALIST Can't initialise harddrive

    I took a (blurry) photo. The power cable (lower left) was pinched under a metal plate. I'd removed an RTX 3080 from my original order and PCS had only put one power cable through for the GPU, so I had to slide the PSU out to attach a second cable for the GPU that I bought separately. That's...

    PCSPECIALIST Can't initialise harddrive

    I've received my PC from PCS and can't initialise the second harddrive. The PCS Welcome Book says I have to just activate it through Disk Management, but it isn't there. I've seen the harddrive, so I know it's actually in the computer and the power and SATA cables are connected, althoughI...

    PCSPECIALIST Zen 3 Tracking thread (5900x/5950x)

    I ordered on 8th October and changed the CPU to the 5900x within about 30 seconds of its launch. I removed the Asus RTX 3080 from my order on Friday and my system has now been dispatched.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    It's already waiting to be dispatched. I suppose testing is quicker when there isn't a GPU.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    I decided to try to get an RTX 3080 elsewhere so I removed the ASUS card from my order on Friday. I signed up to Stock Informer and was able to order an MSI card early on Saturday morning, to be delivered this Friday. My order is now in building. I ordered on 8th October.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    I got an estimated build date email this morning at 6:35, saying Thursday 19th. I ordered on 8th October so I don't think the automated emails have stopped.

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    So you are going to mess it up just because you can?

    PCSPECIALIST RTX 3080

    No. That's aimed at the two people in this thread (you being one of them) who have indicated they may mess it up for no other reason than they can.
