NGL, I’d watch an Amalee and Doki collab where all they do is share stories about how cursed their PC luck is. It would certainly make for an entertaining at least three-hour stream. Lol
On one hand Amalee stacks her PCs ontop of each other, probably why she's so scuffed when combined with how she has boomer-tier tech knowledge. Her having that level of scuff instead of combusting is a testament to how good her rig is. On the other hand, Doki...Doki panic switched RAM sticks while the PC was still on...Basically Doki doing Doki things when maximum panic mode. Later on turns out the RAM sticks were defective anyway...yea it's sheer luck she didn't send HYTE PC to meet PC-kun. I think Doki takes the crown when panicing, but else-wise normal everyday scuff the Monarch beats her at the quantity of scuff.
1:14 The moment you know almost all the repair guys in the shop surround your pc meant that it will be subjected to a new addition to repair course 101 lol
This is what my friends have nicknamed "the (insert my real name) error". A computer error so unlikely that I'm the only one they've ever heard of it happening to. The funniest example was over a decade ago. My Mother turned on a blender and my laptop's Wi-Fi cut out until the blender was turned off again.
that last one isn't really uncommon, it's poor grounding on the house's electric wiring. A common one is your monitor or tv turning on or off, or your pc waking from sleep, when you plug something in the power outlet
@@Bloodstar-o7 Oh it wasn't a power surge. I was already using a surge protector, and I was in a different part of the house. Nothing went wrong with the laptop except for losing Wi-Fi. As far as I can tell, the blender was between my laptop and the router and interfered with the Wi-Fi signal.
@@SixshotRevan That's electromagnetic interference blocking your wifi signal because the current that powers the electric motor in a blender can also easily change parts of the circuits into antennas that broadcast noise. If you had bluetooth headphones those would also become useless when turning on the blender for example since it's the same frequency signal. I'm gonna make a guess it was some cheapo electric blender drop shipped from aliexpress via amazon or some other site? Because most major country regulations strictly regulate how much noise can be emited in such cases, so chances are it was either defective or never passed quality control that allowed it to be sold in those countries for example.
@@devanmuse Haha, no, it was just using up large amounts of resources and slugging down my PC like crazy. However, I wasn't aware that it would screw up with my task bar as well and force me run prompts instead, lol, so the result caught me by surprise. Then it went on to become a routine as my PC would become more bricked each day that went by, lmao.
Familiarity breeds contempt, as they say. I love PCs and tech too... but troubleshooting often makes me want to beat my own brains out against the nearest wall.
I’ve had so many issues with my pc in like 1 year of owning one that I almost went back to console. It’s been good for a while now so hopefully it just continues to work (hope I don’t jinx it), but any more major issues within like the next 3 months and I’m honestly just done.
The fact she stayed with it and got the taskbar back is impressive, considering she's having to do it live ,while entertaining her chat, and freaking out a bit, and being on the spot, and all that.
That is correct. Windows Eleven would deactivate because she changed a PC part too frequently. It's a really dumb policy, but if you. change your PC parts too frequently. it will cause Windows 11 to be activate
@@justinleonard1992 Yeah, Windows activation is really stupid. It doesn't matter how many times you put in a genuine key. Sometimes it just won't accept them.
@@dottn make sure youre not using an online account to log into your PC and press win key, search msconfig(system configuration) select diagnostic startup and click okay it should ask you to restart your PC so close anything you dont want lost and restart, if your explorer functions correctly then you somehow changed the startup type
Shiet, those of you who aren't into building / fixing PC's, you have no idea how unlikely it is to have bought two sets of RAM separately and have both turn out to be faulty. Doki is the first one I've even heard that this has happened to. I'm sure it does happen every now and then to someone, but you have to be seriously unlucky for that to happen.
It's okay Doki you just need to meet this dude I heard of, voice actor or something.. Cy Yu? Yeah I think that's his name.. You'll be fine, he can help :)
Alternative Pro Tip: If you accidentally killed/crashed Explorer and your Task Bar dissapeared, open Task Manager with Ctrl+Shift+Esc or Ctrl+Alt+Del, go to Processes and sort by Name, scroll all the way to the bottom of the list and find "Windows Explorer", select it and the "End Task" button should change to "Restart". Click Restart, and your Task Bar should return. Or you can just reboot your PC.
Oh so this is why it took her so long to set up her new PC for the Tekken tournament thing she entered. Because she is rightfully terrified of touching any PC at all that is not already plugged in and functional

Well, I don't know if changing ram can to it but, if you change hardware in PC your windows may think is it new PC and deactivate your key, you then have to call a special phone line and reactivate. Had to do it when my motherboard gave out and I had to get a new one. Phone call take 5 min its automatic you don't even speak to a person and bam your key is reactivated. She changed ram 3 times too so this is what may have happened
Exactly my thoughts too, I had to replace my CPU and MOBO like… last week. Got the same error. Went into the settings app, clicked that and Microsoft popped up to ask “yo. Did you change things?” Uh yeah, it’s the same PC with new bits. “… okay cool! You’re all set, we deactivated the old key, made a new one and shoved it into your pc. Have a nice day!” So when Doki said she spent 100$ on keys my heart SANK.
so what probably happened is that the ram was changed so many times that windows thought it was a different computer, contacting microsoft tech support could have resolved the issue for free.
Considering that, unless they had a price drop I haven't heard about, you *can't* get a $50 key off the official store, so no Doki, no you didn't get an official one. An "official" one costs over $100. XD
I don't know if this is a Doki issue or a HYTE issue: I bought a ibuypower computer before and it was a disasterpiece until it killed itself a year later.
Same but mine had a coolant failure a mouth in and I stupidly bought a second one cause what are the odds that one lasted a whole 6 mouth before it had a coolant failure.
@@UltimaKeyMaster you could say that about all pre-built PC. If I was a petty and spiteful man I'd would active tell people not to buy any products from iBuyPower PC.
The reason why she lost the registration for Windows is because it detected too many parts changing. If windows suspects you're ship of theseusing your machine it tells you to fuck off. You have to do it over months, or it freaks out because it thinks youre trying to pull a fast one. It's also part of why I test new machines I build on Linux. It's free and fast. It almost never comes up unless you're building pc's, because Microsoft hates you ❤
Yeah no, motherboard is, never had bad ram in my live had several MB that gave out and one time a HDD was new and broken. That's why several makers give life time guarantee on RAM you don't get that on MB. MB has several things plug in to it and has to manage power supply the amount of stress it has several times more then any other component in a PC.
I never had a ram failure ever. I also worked for a tech store as sales/technician where i barely had to deal with ram issues. All i did to fix them is gently brush the ram slots and rub an eraser on the ram's gold contacts, and make sure there are no eraser debris on the ram. Always works.
Absolutely wrong. Drives, then motherboard, then PSU, CPU, & GPU. I'd even try unplugging display cables and USB devices before even considering that RAM might be faulty. (Though that doesn't stop me from swapping out the RAM earlier just because of how convenient they are to access.) RAM is the one component I can purchase used without any fear. It's almost NEVER a problem. You can easily find RAM sticks that still work from the 90s. Unless you're feeding it more power than it can handle or running weird timings, RAM should literally be the _last_ thing you have to worry about. Unless you're upgrading to faster or larger capacity RAM, you should be able to keep the same kit through multiple builds until it's no longer compatible with modern motherboards.
Yeah, as people are saying, RAM issues are rare. I've had one set of RAM die on me in ~30 years. It's one of the 'nice' faults too, easily diagnosed, easily fixed, and can easily be worked around while you get it fixed (since the sticks come in pairs, just rip the bad one out). Storage drives are the bad ones. Magnetic drives are very prone to mechanical failures, while SSDs have a strictly finite lifespan they're literally guaranteed to die at the end of. Motherboards are pretty bad too, a large delicate component with _so_ many different ways it can fail.
@@KeVsPIXELIt happened to me once with these cheap Gskill DDR4 sticks, that are not as strictly binned. Bought a different RAM from another brand haven't had any RAM problems in any PC since then.
And this is why, even tho I had a gaming PC for years, I prefer to play on console nowadays, at one point you just don't have the time to go through all the BS that is required for gaming on PC
If I were a computer, I'd be very scared around Doki.
Wow Doki really trying to compete with Amalee for the most cursed when it comes to PCs, and I can't figure out which is worse.
AmaLee gave Doki her crown when they collabed, im sure it was at that moment Doki got cursed

Keep your battery charged as a backup, and use a surge strip so a sudden power fluctuation won't damage your appliances.

I see monarch has some serious competition.
I've been seeing this too. Used to be very rare to get faulty ram. But now with ddr5, I've encountered 5 bad sets out of 20.
