Chat button totally broken in all browsers
I recently bought an Intel Arc B580 that was DOA, but I can't get the tech chat to open on ANY browser on ANY device. I have tried everything I can think of, but the "Chat Online" button at does not work at all. Any ideas of how I can actually get some support without driving to a Microcenter?

Newly rebuilt PC reboots every time it wakes up
I rebuilt my gaming PC a couple weeks ago and based the new build off of a bundle that was on sale at Micro Center. Ever since rebuilding it, I've been having a very consistent problem with resuming from sleep mode. If the PC is asleep for longer than about 30 seconds (roughly - it seems to be about as long as it takes my…

Location in Las Vegas?
We could really use a MicroCenter in Las Vegas! Especially with Fry's going belly up (not that they have been competitive for years now) there is a real vacuum in the valley. Indeed, it's rather surprising to me there is a dearth of options for local computer parts; in the 90's Vegas used to be full of mom/pop computer…
