BIOS IS NOT SAVING THE NEW BOOT UPORDER.
About 4 years ago I purchased a MicroCenter Powerspec G316 desktop computer running Windows 10 ( up to date). I have made image backups and created a System Repair Dsk (CD) using the Windows program in the Settings ---> Updates and Security; but never tried to test repair dsk to see if the computer would boot up from it.…

HELP!!! Brand new Powerspec G439 Running terribly and all case lights went off and no way to control
After getting home all excited to get my new computer all set up, I powered it up and loved all the colors in the case. As I went through the startup process I installed windows 11 as a free upgrade. After that it all went downhill. As the download finished and the pc restarted it came on with all the lights no longer…

Had an appointment about my powerspec g232 and had to leave it for repair
I had to come in about my powerspec g232 because there's been a lot of stuttering and crashes happening to my pc when it goes through any mildly intensive games (ex: sims 4) and after running a few diagnostic tests, the person that was looking at my PC said I'd have to leave it at the tech bar and that I'd get updates…

New G441 - Performance Issue
Just purchased and have been testing this brand new G441 PowerSpec. Seems fine except for one major issue. Just started to watch a simple YouTube video through MS Edge (just like I do with my old G700) and it buffers all streaming - even at the lowest resolution. Checked using another browser and high res does not buffer.…

Bought a PowerSpec B749 and has the LED multicolor fan blades but can I control them from desktop?
My PowerSpec B749 has selectable buttons to set patters. I was wondering if there was an easier way to select the patterns on the LED fan blades, maybe from the keyboard or mouse? I'm curious. Thanks.

Is powerspec planning to release a prebuilt with a 4090?
The best I see now is the g471 but that only has an 850 watt powersupply. To buy that and then a 4090 + and good power supply, I'd be in the 5.5k range, not considering the resale value of the 4080 inside the g471.

Terrible experience with Microcenter w Prebuilt Powerspec G439
TLDR: Bought a Powerspec PC. Started to crash and reboot. Brought the PC in, despite their "48" hour repair guarantee, was told it would take 2 weeks and their 48 hour repair guarantee "didn't matter" . Longer explanation: Explained that someone at the national call number said because I had a PowerSpec pc that I would get…

B749 No Lights on Case Fans
I just purchased a new (open box) B749 and the case fan lights do not work. This is the Lian Li Lancool 205 case. Pressing the M / C buttons have no effect at all. I have traced all of the wires from the fans to the controller and the cable from the controller to the buttons. The AURA app will control the CPU fan lights.…

All of a sudden I cannot boot from USB, what happened?
New PowerSpec B249: Windows 11: Settings->Recovery->Advanced Restart - I could restart with USB boot option just fine from this screen, then all of a sudden the USB Restart option disappeared and was replaced by a "trouble shooting" option, and no apparent way to reboot from USB. Microsoft says the PowerSpec "reset the…

B940 accent LEDs
So, this isnt a huge thing, more of a slight annoyance that I figured I'd waste everyone's time and ask about. Originally out of the box, the B940 behaved beyond expectations. One of the pleasant surprises was when the power saving features kicked in - specifically the monitors timing out - the colorful LEDs inside the…

Activation Helper start after every startup, however I already have ESET activated.
I would like to cleanly remove the Activation Helper (ESEMC.exe I believe). I understand I can remove ESETMC.exe from the startup folder, however I would like to uninstall the app also. ESETMC is not presented in the control panel apps list - so I cannot remove it there.

How do I turn off the rgb on my new G441 Powerspec (MSI Pro Z690 DDR5 Wifi board)?
The Mystic_Light app does nothing to any of the rgb lighting on the case or processor fans. Pushing the buttons on top of the case just changes patterns and colors. No way to turn them off completely. This seems like it should be a simple adjustment, but I must be missing something. Thanks for any help!

PS B734 - graphics card suggestions?
My son just got the PowerSpec B734, but needs a better graphics card for gaming. I am not a computer savvy person, (if I have trouble, I restart to fix the problem. Passed that, I'm pretty useless.) Does anyone have any suggestions that would fit the case and our $400-$500 budget?

PowerSpec Open Box PCs
Do PowerSpec prebuilts that are returned get wiped before they are put back on sale? I have looked at potentially purchasing one, but was curious if they are put back into a "new" state from a data / hard drive perspective before they are resold. Thanks!
