F5F Stay Refreshed Hardware Desktop Something odd happened right after turning on the system.

This morning when I powered on the PC, everything seemed normal, but my mouse froze. Then the screen went dark while the computer kept running quietly. When I tried to restart it, it turned on with loud spikes coming from the GPU, HDD, and SSD. After Windows finished its tasks, the system displayed specs like 8 GB RAM, DDR4 3200 MHz, R5 1600, Radeon RX 480, and an SSD with a 500 GB hard drive and a 500 PSU. I’m not sure if this is normal, but I want to be sure everything is working properly.

Use ddu for updates. Ensure xmp is enabled if needed. Check functionality after enabling.

What do you mean by "ddu" and "Xmp"? Also, is your BIOS still current? It seems you updated it about two weeks ago—just double-check.

Check the driver uninstaller video to see how to use it. It lets you operate your sticks at the speeds they claim. Confirm it’s active in the BIOS.
