Just brought a PC and monitor:

i9 9900k
rtx 2080 super
nzxt kraken m22 water cooler
16gb ballistix ram
samsung 970 pro ssd 1tb
nzxt h100i case
corsair rm850 psu
rog strix z370-i motherboard

HUAWEI MATEVIEW GT34 W SOUNDBAR MONITOR.

HOOKED UP THROUGH dp1.4

At first it was my bad because i did not have the gpu set up to be the primary source for display. I changed this and checked some other settings.

So far i have had:

- blank screens on desktop when applying setting in nzxt cam
- some programmes and apps not opening even as administrator
- Two fans do not come on and i cannot find out how to turn them on
- My first game being warzone is taking stupid long time to download, even after i got past the bugs in battle.net, one minute youtube is auto playing at 400p and then next it is 1440p, i think these are do to with Wifi which brings me onto the next thing..
- Wifi, im dropping 1mbps up to 30 and it seems to be intermittent, i thought it was because of the game installing but even when paused it seems to do it. could be the plug in wireless adapter. It had been a while since owning a windows pc which i used to love but honestly i have been using a macbook pro 2012 and 2015 and an original xbox and whilst far from top of the range i have had little to no issues and when i do, i ring apple and they are great. Where as microsoft well, i have no words, apart from disgusting money grabbing f++ks.

Anyone more techy than i am? usually i get it all sorted myself but this is just annoying me now.

A FULL 24HOURS NOW AND WARZONE IS 17%

On a side note though i got the Logitech pop keyboard and mouse in mint, they're kind of cool to look at when i cannot do anything on the pc.....

Microsoft won't do anything because they provide the operating system, they don't provide support for home users. This changes should you get into the enterprise space.

In terms of Windows based support, your options are limited to computer companies within your local area to assist you unless you've bought your PC from a company that provides support themselves. I could be wrong here; I've not had to use one personally but that's what I believe is commonplace.

You've done the right thing and come onto a forum and said what's wrong. With that, let's go through the list.

blank screens on desktop when applying setting in nzxt cam - What settings? If you unplug & replug your monitor cable back in, does it show again?

some programmes and apps not opening even as administrator - What applications. You shouldn't need to run anything as an Administrator. Are you using Win 10/11?

wo fans do not come on and i cannot find out how to turn them on - Probably a setting within NZXT Cam. I'd advise ignoring the software for your fans and plug the fans into your motherboard directly and use the BIOS to control fan curves

Wifi Slow - Your motherboard has WIFI capability. Have you installed the antennas on the back & downloaded the network drivers for it. Whilst your there, remove the USB wifi dongle if that's what you have. Could be causing a conflict and probably still using your onboard wifi. Driver Download Link

Sorted it and i did end up plugging fans into motherboard and completely removing the nzxt control box after getting the fans on and cleaning it out...

As for microsoft, yeah that is what they do, whereas apple, iphone with issues on a 2012 mac in 2022 and they helped me with anything and number easily located in seconds.

I am running windows 10

Thanks for the reply though! All good for now, Concerta gave me some help also.

Cheers guys.

Just a TP link and i am sorted. I think the Wifi receiver is just poor, or could be the game installing, its an asus, with the 2 gold screw on things instead of a usb. Ill compare when i have got the tp link connected and also after the game has installed.

Thanks again.
