However, when I plugged in all of the necessary cables into the motherboard and turned on the PSU switch, the CPU cooler fan light would flash once but when I clicked the power button…

My brother-in-law has a HP where the ssd drive where Windows is installed when tested with HP's diagnostic tests failed.

I purchased the Toshiba X300 CMR drive (firmware v0603) in Feb 2023 and had a recent BSOD; computer restarted before I had a chance to read/write-down the issue.

Something is up with my PC. I need help.
I did a parts upgrade about a month ago. Everything has been going fine, but lately, I've noticed that it produces more heat than usual when playing RuneScape despite having four fans running. I also noticed that the RGB fan in the back is working but not lit up like it's supposed to be (no clue how I missed that, so I…

How do I access the BIOS on a PowerSpec B745 and change memory profiles?
Also, I added 16GB more RAM to the B745 and that prompted the BIOS set up to pop up upon booting. I noticed that it reported the DRAM clock speed at 2400 hz however the memory is all 3200 hz. How do you change that in the BIOS?

My PowerSpec G701 was a disaster from shortly after I bought it (new)
Not being upgradable to Windows 11 (it has a Ryzen 7 1700, the only Ryzen 7 version not supported by W11), it has blue screened at least once a week starting a few monthss after I bought it. After the first year, the blue screens began to occur multiple times per week. I have a health issue that prevents me from carrying…

Is it possible to send Micro Center a missing order with a receipt?
I purchased 42 items from Micro Center, and I have the receipt, but I am having trouble finding it in my orders. Is there a way to send them the receipt, since I don't want to go to their store because of the distance and the hurricane?

Contact Form Broken?
I have tried the Contact Manager link from three different browsers - they all fail — apparently because the contact form website is microcenterinsider.com and the web application blocks it on the Micro Center application end — NOT on my end. How can I let them know about this problem? How can I contact the Westmont IL…

So i built a pc about 2 years ago. I have had no problems until yesterday, when the pc randomly shut off. The fans were still on, and the light indicator on the top of the case showed that it was still on, but it seemed to no longer be outputting anything to my display or headphones, or be connected to my…

How do I get your stores to carry this companies case?
To whom it may concern, I love your store in Charlotte, NC but the case selection is lacking. I understand you cannot carry every thing especially an area so saturated as pc cases. I am looking for a small case to move around for me and my teenager who still takes their pc to play games and D & D . Currently have a laptop…

UPS tracking bug in email
Just want to report a small bug. I ordered something to ship, and in the email it gave me three tracking numbers including a link to track all of them. I guess when you put commas between multiple tracking numbers, especially in the URI, UPS does not parse it correctly so I had to manually remove the commas for it to work.…

Please bring MicroCenter to Greenville, SC!
We desperately need one over here. Closest one is Charlotte which is basically a 2 hour drive, so not impossible. But it is not somewhere we can just pop in whenever we want here. I can assure you that you guys would have plenty of business over here. Would love to be able to stop in whenever I wanted. Hopefully we see one…

Received odd email from nofraud.com after purchase.
Hello. I'm just wondering if this is something I need to follow up on with Microcenter to ensure my purchase goes through and ships on time. Or if this is a common phishing scam, or something else? It's just odd, because it has the exact order amount and it was sent immediately after I completed my order. My bank sends a…

GREASY REFURB
Got a refurb dell today in Paterson. It would be nice to be able to email or call them. REGARDLESS - the screen had greasy fingerprints as did the touch pad key board. Might have been some jelly on the case. Pretty freaking gross guys. How about wiping them down a little?
