If you don’t need whatever is stored on the disk you can try using diskpart to clean it, which will remove all partitions on the selected disk. Then you can format and start fresh. In my experience, if cleaning a drive with diskpart doesn’t solve weird problems it’s usually dead.

solidmarbleeyes@alien.topBtoTech Support•I accidentally flashed bios when rebuilding my pc motherboard( x570s mag tomahawk max Wi-Fi)English1·2 years agoFirst, go through some basic troubleshooting steps. Make sure all the power to the motherboard is connected, the GPU has power, the cable to the monitor is plugged into the GPU not the motherboard, and maybe reseat the RAM. From what you’re describing the system is not POSTing, which could be a number of things unrelated to the BIOS button.
If you’ve tried all that and it still wont POST, you can flash the BIOS to the motherboard using a USB thumb drive. You will need to use a different computer to download the BIOS from the motherboard manufacturer’s website and load it on the thumb drive. The link below is a youtube guide on how to do this.
solidmarbleeyes@alien.topBtoTech Support•My 3 month old lenovo makes a weird soundEnglish1·2 years agoThe only moving parts on that laptop are the fans. It looks like there are two fans, one on each side. Best guess without hearing a recording of the sound is that there is something making contact with the fan on the right, or a failing bearing. The laptop will need to exhaust more heat after it has been on for a while or under load, which would make sense why it gets louder with time. Considering that it is only 3 months old it probably is still under warranty. If so, I would use it to get it repaired.
solidmarbleeyes@alien.topBtoTech Support•A solution to getting good internet far from my router?English1·2 years agoWhat you’re describing is either a range extender or a wireless bridge since it has an antenna. Bridges are usually for much longer distances, like between buildings and are usually slower. It could be a powerline adapter but usually those don’t have antennas.
If you have Ethernet run through the walls I would use an access point to extend your Wi-Fi. If not, a range extender located between your laptop and your router would likely improve the strength of your signal.

Yep, that’s the way. After I clean it I usually will format it in disk management instead of diskpart, but you shouldn’t have any problems if you follow that article.
