Welp, BigRedV4 officially took a dump. 🔥Techsource Mousepads: ►Windows 10 Pro oem key $14: biitt.ly/Pzmv5 25% off code: TS20 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know there will be questions about the timing. This entire incident happened near the end of part 4 (right before I Installed the ultrawide) I decided not to include any of this in the dream setup videos because it would clutter the series, so I separated them into vlogs. Hope this clarifies it. As far as what killed my PC…it becomes more clear in the next vlog. 😂
Glad to know that, no matter how experienced or vetted you are, in the end you handle unknown errors exactly the same way we all do lol...."Please!....I'll never shave again!"
A majority of people also don't understand EMT and ways it can negatively impact a PC. A lot of unexpected errors are produced by EMT, cases like this for instance look cool, but are not very practical for part longevity.
@@canemprodigiosum8860 Electromagnetic Transmission, it can destroy hardware if left unchecked. In some cases frequent data corruption can be caused by it. That is why most certified professionals have a wrist ground when working on PCs, well at least the smart ones.
Hey man, I had the exact same issue, the way I solved it is by first removing the gpu, then remove cmos for 10 minutes, and then booting it up with my cpu's integrated graphics (I guess that using another gpu would also work), and resetting the bios manually each setting at a time (because automatic resets actually don't reset some settings like secure boot) Then save and let the pc boot, and then finally putting the gpu back and everything worked fine. I hope this works for you too
From what I remember of videocards, this is usually the case. Integrated graphics work fine. Hence I don't ran a videocard since I don't even know when. A very long time.
To mitigate some of the stress for water cooling pc's, there are these quick connect fittings that people can buy. It makes it to where you can disconnect tubing without having to completely drain and refill the system because it stops water from going out from the part you disconnected. The only troubling part in my opinion though would be, you probably would still have to drain the gpu water block if you were to remove that. (Haven't looked into how it works with gpus, too risky to water cool a gpu for me)
I think you should make an option to have the tech source logo on the mouse pads like “stealth” just bc I don’t really like logos on my stuff and I know other people agree, but def getting that yingyang and eternal tree
Windows 11 is known for after you install it or upgrade it from a different version. That it will not give display input and give errors. If your PC is a Ryzen the only way to fix it is to connect a different GPU on the motherboard and it should start working again. And in order to use the same GPU that was on the system you have to go into the bios with your new GPU and reset to default bio's settings.. then it should fix the issue.. This apply also with Intel but u don't need a different graphics card due to the processor already having one..
It's also because the riser cable, when the bios is affected/changed by Windows 11, it will give a VGA output error due to certain riser cables. This motherboard is not showing the VGA error and instead is cycling through to show CMOS. This is one reason I only have 1 Ryzen system out of 6 PCs. With Intel it rarely does this, heck I havent seen any of my Intel systems do this. Not a fanboy but I swear I will never trust AMD until they stop making me swap GPUs every single time I swap CPUs or Windows.
To recover the battery dropped behind the headboard, get one of those magnets that look like pocket lanterns that you can get on Amazon They should be powerful enough to Lift, so tie a rope to the keychain it has (tie it well with double knot or sailor knot or whatever you can and that this, the rope is very long and resistant because as you fall you will be in a world of problems) then let it fall behind the headboard and feel again as when you were a child and played catch fish with a toy callus. with a magnet instead of hook AND FISH THAT BATTERY ED!!!!!
I work at a PC recycling and repairing company, we have seen this issue with Windows 11 laptops and PCs. We had to do a secure data backup, then wipe the SSD and reinstall Windows for it to work. Really annoying update bug
Please bring back the CoolTech series, those videos are what's helping me grow my setup on a budget, so I'd be more than delighted if you bring it back!
OMG, I fully sympathize for you. Just the sheer amount of painstaking work getting it down and back up plus all the tediousness of disassembly and re-assembly when all you want to do is play on it, enjoy its aesthetic and bathe in its gloriousness. I must partake now to alleviate the anxiety I gained from watching this video. I can't wait to see the followup when its fixed and everything is good in the world again.
I don't wanna be that guy but, there is a difference between a clip and a magazine. The simplest way to put it is, a magazine is external (with some exceptions like shotguns) and feeds ammo into the weapon. Clips are fixed into the weapon and the weapon feeds itself ammo. TBH it doesn't bother me much, just thought it would help ya out
This is why i never mount or do watercooled pc. The amount of stress taking out apart is really annoying especially when the problem resolve and put it back together it will have the same or different issue. I agree it looked awesome but with this much stress i ain't doing it.
Damn that hurts sooo much. It’s so damn aggravating too when it happens to a water cooled build. 2 years ago I had a full hardline loop pc and the mobo proceeded to slowly die and I chased errors and issues like that for months…. Needless to say, no matter how baller it is, hard line liquid cooling can be a disaster for repairs and maintenance. And I learned that lesson the damn hard way also
I always love a good edit and for me the best one in here was when he was installing the smart lock and seemingly couldn't decide which way the door latch needed to be orientated . In the end it seems he got it correct. :)
Unfortunately, not that simple, no POST often means motherboard issue. I believe CPU could also cause this, but I'd be willing to bet board more often than not.
Very Similar issue happened which I’ve gone through unfortunately with a similar setup. Ended up that windows 11 after update didn’t like having multiple output sources plugged in for first boot did everything you just did and swapping over to a single DP cable from GPU to CPU got me in then adjusted settings in windows and no issues since. GL and god bless having these companies at a keystroke willing to send you components on a whim.
Edgar It hurt me to see your computer and you in this state I felt your pain I'm glad it happened before the end of part 4 And now everything is fine with the computer and you bro
To him it's definitely not about the money, it's about the hard work and time he has spent designing and custom making the pc. "buying" it is one thing, creating it is the hard part.
@@TheCarpenterV Yea the buying part is never the part the matters the most. It's what you made of it and how it turned out, I feel his pain. They should've never released windows 11 with all those bugs.
For the HDMI cable dangling on the ceiling, why not try one of those retractable loops and loop the cable around it while its on the ceiling so that way you can pull the cable down when you need it, but it looks clean while you don't use it?
I just cant with gun owners... "In case someone breaks in and tried to hurt my family."....your guns are in a different room...locked away...in a drawer...as if the person that's going to "hurt you" is going to sit there and wait for you to prepare for battle. Fantasy land.
This is why I recommend not to make your pc very difficult to take down incase something goes wrong. I know it’s cool to mount on wall and such but ask yourself will it be easy to take down incase something goes wrong?
When I was working with Dell from 2020 - 2022 (left earlier this year) We had a lot of users motherboard crash when updating to Win 11, some reps asked dell about this and dell attempt to ask microsoft but they gave us the basic of troubleshoot Check SSD Age - check connections - reseat this and that. the entire spill, but after some time, we stop recommending windows 11 due to it crashing motherboards from time to time, a thing that a customer did as a work around is use a system that meet win 11 requirements that is inferior than the actual gaming pc and did the update with that drive and swat it to the main PC
Hey ED, I had the exact same issue with my pc when I updated it to windows 11. Connecting the pc to only 1 moniter fixed it for me. And once windows 11 was all installed and setup, i connected my other moniters and it worked without a issue. If that doesnt solve it, you can turn it on and turn it off 5 seconds after you turn it on at the end it should boot upto the bios and you can manually install windows 11
Its crazy to me as a New Zealander, that people have a dedicated armory in their house. Like for us, any Grandma can defend her entire family with just a wooden spoon it feels like. Guns just seem like an unnecessary defence mechanism.
Nice dream setup man! Really! I ask myself the next question when considering the windows 11 upgrade: "Is there any benefit for me to go from Windows 10 to 11 at this particular moment?" and the answer is no, no there is no benefit to upgrade, i don't gain anything from upgrading, so i stay on windows 10, i ask myself also: "If i upgrade, are there any downfalls when i upgrade to 11?" and yes, yes there are significant downfalls, as you show here, the pc could just randomly die for no reason, plus there are some other quirks about windows 11 i don't like, like not being able to move the taskbar to the side or top, having to do 2 clicks to get a full right click context menu, the push from microsoft to use edge is just ridiculous and if you have a Home license, you HAVE to have internet, otherwise you can't complete the setup process! I mean, if you want those quirks, be my guest and upgrade asap. But i am keeping windows 10, i am happy with it and all the software that works on 11 works on 10 as well. And glas to see that the normal procedure of troubleshooting is almost the same with every custom build pc :p
Please practice safe gun keeping. Lock that drawer or at least the ammo in a separate locked drawer. With kids in the house or people coming over any number of accidents can happen. $10 lock will save someone's life at the very least.
So if someone breaks in and you gotta unlock the drawer and load the gun lmao. Nah just keep the gun hidden. When it takes a minute to load the gun thats when you need seconds
@@TechSource With respect, kids have imagination and if there's a will there's a way. When they are older they can easily find a key, a pin #, or transfer a fingerprint. I found my dad's when I was younger even though it's well hidden. Doesn't hurt to separate gun and ammo or add a second lock. But if you think that's sufficient for your family, I genuinely hope it is too. Thank you for all the great content over the years, your channel is the reason my setup is something I take pride in.
Hey TechSource I recommend that you buy a trigger lock for the guns you have loaded that you use for self protection at your home. Accidents happen man, and this may prevent that :)
There is a way to fix that if your monitor does respond even though yours is clearly not No.1: try restarting the computer a normal restart usually creates a new checksum and eliminates the error. No.2: if that works download and flash a BIOS update. Download a update from the motherboard manufacturer's website. No.3: reset BIOS. No.4: replace the CMOS battery No.5: if none of these works consulting technician or a computer expert.
Ed if you want to get your channel performing better you should do more creator collabs. But i can see u have been doing busy videos that you kinda need to make with your house renovations , but continue doing what you love but just a recommendation, i think you should consider doing more collsbs
I think for you armory drawers it would really bring them together if you got foam pads with cutouts for everything to sit in, like different pistols and clips and what have you
writing this before watching the end. im doing an apprenticeship to become a IT specialist for systemintegrations in germany and i was one of the few at the company that first tried win11. it worked fine for like 2-4 months and then all of the sudden when i did a windows update and left the office, the next day my os was wrecked. couldnt start windows anymore, try different methods to recover my data on the notebook and in the end was able to somehow downgrade back to the windows 10 that was originally on the device and also got my data. all apps where gone so also chrome bookmarks etc where gone, but i got the more important stuff back. since that incident i stayed with win10.
Man i really felt bad how you're dream pc died , but you are lucky to get a new mobo , don't stess it out to take apart the pc again. It's part of life we have to do the hard things. Good luck and waiting for the another update with completed Setup 🙏🏼😁
You should bleep out the "ok Google" command so us Google users don't have problems. This video turned on everything in my house. Every light and fan, my Xbox, several TVs, everything. Google said it turned on 37 devices. I'm not complaining because it was actually kinda funny. I'm just happy it didn't unlock my doors or open the garage.
And this is why i hate when PC's break like this, Even when properly taken care of. 🤦♂️ I still remember coming home from school one day when i was a kid back in 2011 bawling because a Dell Dimension 3000 tower stopped turning on one day and the PSU in it i think failed.
Cmos error causes post error; cmos error is when your cmos and bios encounter a problem by either data mix up/not matching or the computer not being able to read startup info. Post error is when your pc encounters bios error. The easiest way to fix cmos error is to turn off all peripheral devices connect to the pc(aka completely power drain psu), remove the cmos battery for about 1-5 mins and put it back in. From there on u should be able to access bios and so on.
I'm glad to see that ASUS RMA the motherboard because they just had a recall on the Z690 Herio about 10,000 was recalled. Love your keyboard and mouse gaming pads. and I hope you get your setup working soon when the new boards come in.
Happened to me the same case.. don't know the issues is.. after days found out that it was the CMOS battery.. Check the proper rotation of CMOS battery, when you put it back to the MB, it has a correct rotation of + and -. You may check the manual where the + and - is facing.. if you put the wrong way. the issue is faulty windows boot or the PC keeps on rebooting... hope this can also fix your PC. 😊🤩 hope you can see my comment.. 🙏🙏👍
I liked the pad you said you scratched, would look great with black sky, maybe a moon or stars, with the beacon in a blueish color, and maybe a redish ground style
god i hate this feeling lol i remember when i was working over seas for a couple months and when i came back my PC completely died on me but i was able to find out pretty quick that it was the motherboard that had a problem so I ordered a new motherboard that shipped to my house the next day only for that motherboard to be DOA.... so i had to order ANOTHER motherboard and return the DOA one... man what a nightmare that was...
Ouch, but on the bright side, you've created a really cool pachinko machine for CMOS batteries and screws, etc. On the setup build side, maybe add a little strip of hobby board across the top to prevent other things from unintentionally dropping back there. On the bricked PC, yeah curious what happened there, I've heard of a bad driver update causing issues, but never bricking a PC. That'd be a new one, at least for me.
When it says CMOS error, that doesn't mean the battery. It's just the BIOS itself. It could have become corrupted. Flashing it is what you should try. Or the flashback feature.
Those kind of things can happen to literally everyone, so don't think the video was ruined by the pc problem because it was not. I watched the entire video without skipping a single sec! Amazing one, one more time! Greetings from Lisbon bro!
Having a cup of coffee and watching the dramas of the pc fully invested like I'm watching a film 😆 love the new pads bro. Can't wait to get one for my new setup ❤
I’m sorry man but I had to laugh 😂 and the way you edited this together is funny as! 🙈 🙉 🙊 oo oo 🦍 Good on Yu mate 👍🏻 Remember this… The measure of a good man is how well he handles adverse situations and so far your passing the test with flying colours. May I suggest getting one of them extendable magnet antenna looking stick thingies to grab that battery from behind your headboard. Good luck fixing it.
That door ain't that safe for storing your armory. In Belgium it is in a safe or at least a reinforced door. But your door even with this deathlock wont be able to let intruders out. Also a lot of space underneath the door is easy for intruders to break open the door.
The only thing i see in the remodeling, is if everything matches with the fountains you have in the front yard. Can be a good reason to tint film alot of the windows.
Hello Ed, Love the videos I am a farmer from Northern Ireland and I like gaming in my spare time, Love the setup and the Ts Pads! Sucks that the pc had a Cmos error had it once myself, Best of luck!
I went through a similar experience with my new build. Took me the better part of an entire day with multiple attempts at flashing the bios to get it working. I felt this pain. In the end I had to flash the bios with a single stick of RAM in order to get it going. Even though the RAM was properly seated and previously working. I feel your pain my guy.
With a dead CMOS battery the BIOS loses its settings so it would be very possible to get a blank screen Remove the motherboard CMOS battery for five minutes. During that five minutes, press the power button for 30 seconds. After the five minutes is up, reinstall the CMOS battery making sure to insert it with the correct side up just as it came out. If you previously removed the graphics card, reinstall it now, it should work after this is done
Probably not smart advice, but here goes...try using a magnet tool to find the battery behind the headboard. Like I said, not sure if its smart cause the magnet may just kill the battery for all I know then what's the point of finding it, but just a suggestion. Good Luck Ed, it pains me, as well, to see you struggle with this beauty that is your setup!
I don't get why you installed the cable runners in the You Tube Studio on the top of the baseboard and not directly under the windows. Now you have those vertical cablerunners going down. If you installed them under the window you would not have those. So got a really clean look. Also you should imo switched the cables themselver, exactly on lenght and of course in white.
OH BOY, that last mouse pad is Game in Japanese. And the symbol behind kinda can be assumed that it's Chinese art. I hope no one catches that cause for some reason some Chinese people really don't like the Japanese at all, (the word hate comes to mind). I mean look at what happen in China over the Abe assassination. They were celebrating his death like it was a national holiday at clubs and stores. I could be wrong about the symbol since it was kind of hard to match up on a quick google search. Hopefully all is fine but just letting you know it might be an issue. But then there are Chinese that love anime and Japanese culture sooo, it might not be a big deal. I mean I like it and if I had somewhere to put it, I would buy it.
Just a recommendation. Only keep one load. Those springs will lose there push load all the time. I keep one and then rotate magazines. It’s happened too me. Will start jamming.
Hey there, i think for a cleaner cable management you should go up the lower part of the window and then up to the ceiling instead down to the "flor" and then up to the ceiling.
get a 1/4" air hose reel from amazon for however long the hdmi cord is & you can mount it to the ceiling and it will retract & lock into place at any length.
