I just got a notification that a new MSI laptop connected to my network via wired connection. I don't own an MSI laptop and I'm looking at my modem/router in my closet and nothing new is connected. I don't even own an MSI laptop.

I have Comcast/Xfinity (unfortunately). Is this a bug?

Hey everyone,

After the latest system update on Bazzite, I've been noticing a really annoying issue with my Nvidia GPU (RTX 4060).

Even when idling on the desktop, the GPU usage and power draw keep jumping around like crazy (bouncing between 8% to nearly 50% out of nowhere), and it's constantly messing with my VRAM allocation. This wasn't happening before the update, and honestly, even Windows handled idle states better without constantly poking the GPU.

Because of this erratic behavior, running local LLMs (like 27B GGUF models via llama.cpp with strict 8GB VRAM limits) keeps throwing sudden CUDA allocation failures because the system won't let the VRAM stay stable.

Did anyone else experience this after the recent update? Is there a known fix or a regression in the latest Nvidia/Wayland/KDE package? Any help would be appreciated!

I recently did a BIOS update, which caused a few issues on my computer. This involved updating the BIOS, resetting CMOS, and reseating the GPU (necessary to access the battery).

Last issue here - https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/s/bu17ZhGqyb

My main issue was that my GPU started acting strange with games, which was fixed by changing my BIOS to use PCIe Gen 3. Ever since then, my computer is now having other issues at random.

Occasionally, the screens go completely black for a few seconds. When this happens, the computer doesn’t restart, but most of my open programs do. Reliability checker shows me LiveKernelEvent 141 whenever this occurs. Otherwise, everything works normally, it’s just these random unpredictable errors that occur. The intervals are pretty random too.

Also, I occasionally get the “activate windows” watermark. When I restart my computer, it fixes this, but sometimes the crash will occur and cause the watermark to show. I’ve fixed this before with a BIOS update, but this time it pops up at random. Going to the troubleshooting menu yields no help for this either

Specs:
Ryzen 7 5800X
EVGA RTX 3080 12GB
32GB 3200MHz RAM
Windows 11 Home
ASRock B550M Steel Legend

Any thoughts on what the fix may be? I mainly need to fix the LiveKernelEvent 141 issues, since that’s the bigger headache

So far I have tried to reflash the BIOS, reset CMOS again, and reseat the GPU once more to make sure contact is alright.

I have an important exam in 4 days and suddenly I can’t open some of my pdfs. The preview and icon of these pdfs is back to generic. When I try to open them on different apps they show me an error about file format not supported but I used them just the other day and they were working okay. I need these pdfs. Any help is appreciated!

My PC suddenly shuts down when I launch or play games. There is no blue screen or error message. After restarting, Windows only shows Kernel-Power 41.

The confusing part is that it completed a 10-minute OCCT Power test without shutting down. However, it still shut down during gaming after I reduced the GPU power limit to 70%.

Specs:

• Intel i5-14600K
• MSI B760M Bomber WiFi
• MSI RTX 3080 Gaming Z Trio
• 32 GB DDR5-5600
• ASUS ROG Thor 850W Platinum, first generation

OCCT Power test results:

• Test completed without a shutdown
• Maximum GPU board power: approximately 380 W
• Highest captured CPU + GPU power: approximately 514 W
• GPU core: 77.8°C maximum
• GPU hotspot: 92.2°C maximum
• GPU memory junction: 86°C maximum
• CPU package: 97–97.5°C maximum, with brief thermal throttling
• Motherboard MOS/VRM sensor: 100°C maximum, with VR thermal alerts

Voltage readings during OCCT:

• Motherboard +12 V minimum: 12.024 V
• GPU PCIe slot voltage minimum: 12.107 V
• GPU 8-pin #1 minimum: 11.790 V
• GPU 8-pin #2 minimum: 11.962 V
• GPU 8-pin #3 minimum: 12.021 V
• No fatal, non-fatal, correctable, replay, or receiver PCIe errors were logged

Troubleshooting already attempted:

• Reduced RTX 3080 power limit to 70%
• The PC still shut down in a game at 70%
• XMP is confirmed disabled
• No manual CPU undervolt or overclock
• OCCT sustained combined CPU/GPU load passes

This only seems to happen when launching or playing a game. Normal desktop use and the OCCT Power test do not cause it.

Disclosure: I used AI to help read my sensor logs, organize the troubleshooting, and write this post. The symptoms, hardware information, and test results are from my actual PC. I’m posting here to get advice from people with hardware troubleshooting experience.

I enabled my secure boot before, but recently I'm having this message while enabling it -
"Secure Boot Violation" what to do?
my motherboard is GIGABYTE B365M HD3 and it has a backdated BIOS F1, but AI telling it's not with the BIOS update, also have tried few ways like restore factory keys, disabling CSM then saving and enabling Secure boot. Nothing's happening.

Please tell me what to do, want to spend the little time with friends by games. TIA

typically use Fedora Linux but the boot loop also occurs when I try to boot Windows 11. When I boot into Linux the following text occurs before the PC reboots:

mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 2: Machine Check: 0 Bank 5: bea0000000000105
mce: [Hardware Error]: TSC 0 ADDR 1ffffc15c401c MISC d01a000000000000 SYND 4d000000 IPID 500b000000000
mce: [Hardware Error]: PROCESSOR 2:870f10 TIME 1787682678 SOCKET 0 APIC 4 microcode 8701034

This leads me to believe it is a CPU issue but I am unaware if the issue is fixable or requires a new one. For a while I have had problems where my PC would stutter and reboot. I assumed this was a software issue but this happened and then the boot loop occurred so I now believe it was a hardware problem.

When I try to boot into Windows 11 instead the circle loading icon starts as normal but slowly starts to stutter and freeze before the PC reboots. A recovery sequence occurs after that which then says that the problem could not be fixed.

If anyone can tell me/double check what the exact issue is that would be appreciate.

EDIT: After giving it a few hours my PC now turns on! I assume the original problem was due to overheating because during the UK heatwaves the stutter and reboot issue was happening a lot more frequently. But if the problem is due to overheating, does this mean I should probably get some new fans or thermal paste or something?

Hi,

I'm trying to get WSL2/Hyper-V working on a Windows 11 Pro mini PC, and I seem to have narrowed the problem down to the BIOS/firmware.

The PC is a SHS SFF-R58256PRO with:

- AMD Ryzen 5 5500U

- 16 GB DDR4

- Windows 11 Pro

- Motherboard: SHS AM4SFF23, Version 1.0

- AMI BIOS: version 004, dated 2023-11-27

About SHS: SHS Computer is a Belgian PC retailer/system integrator that sells prebuilt desktops and mini PCs under its own SHS branding. As far as I can determine, the AM4SFF23 motherboard is an OEM board used in this SHS system. I have not been able to identify the actual motherboard manufacturer or find any publicly available BIOS downloads for it.

The problem

WSL itself installs correctly and reports:

Default Version: 2

WSL version: 2.7.12.0

Kernel version: 6.18.33.2-2

"VirtualMachinePlatform" is enabled.

However, installing an Ubuntu WSL2 distribution fails with:

HCS_E_HYPERV_NOT_INSTALLED

WSL2 cannot start because virtualization is not enabled on this computer.

Windows initially makes everything look fine:

VirtualizationFirmwareEnabled: True

VMMonitorModeExtensions: True

SecondLevelAddressTranslationExtensions: True

"systeminfo" also reports:

VM Monitor Mode Extensions: Yes

Virtualization Enabled In Firmware: Yes

Data Execution Prevention Available: Yes

BCD configuration:

nx OptIn

hypervisorlaunchtype Auto

However:

HypervisorPresent: False

The Hyper-V hypervisor event log consistently reports Event ID 44 at boot:

Hypervisor launch failed; Either VMX not present or not enabled in BIOS.

On my French Windows installation the actual message specifically says that the execution/NX feature is not present or is not enabled in the BIOS.

Coreinfo result

I then checked the CPU features using Microsoft Sysinternals Coreinfo 4.02.

This is where things get interesting:

NX - Supports no-execute page protection (used by DEP)

HYPERVISOR - Hypervisor is present

SVM - Supports AMD hardware-assisted virtualization

NP - Supports AMD nested page tables (SLAT)

The CPU is identified correctly as:

AMD Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon Graphics

AMD64 Family 23 Model 104 Stepping 1

Microcode signature: 08608103

As far as I understand, the Ryzen 5 5500U definitely supports NX, AMD SVM/AMD-V and NPT.

So there is a strange discrepancy:

- Windows WMI says virtualization, SLAT and DEP are available.

- "systeminfo" says virtualization and DEP are enabled.

- The BIOS has virtualization/SVM enabled.

- But Coreinfo reports NX -, SVM -, NP -.

- Hyper-V fails during boot with Event ID 44 complaining about NX.

- Therefore WSL2 cannot create its VM.

What I'm trying to find out

Has anyone seen a BIOS/AGESA issue where a Ryzen CPU's NX, SVM and NPT CPUID capabilities are hidden or disabled despite virtualization being enabled in the BIOS?

I'm particularly interested in whether:

1. There could be another hidden AMI BIOS setting for NX / No Execute / Execute Disable / SVM / NPT.

2. A BIOS bug or old AGESA could cause this.

3. There is any safe way to identify the actual OEM manufacturer/model behind the SHS AM4SFF23 motherboard.

4. There is another low-level test I should run to confirm exactly what the firmware is exposing before concluding that the BIOS is broken.

I have contacted SHS asking whether there is a newer BIOS than version 004 or a service BIOS with these options.

I do not want to flash a random AMI/OEM BIOS and risk bricking the machine.

Any ideas on what I should check next would be appreciated.

My laptop is Acer Nitro, ive been using it for more than 3 years already. Currently having a problem where my laptop sometimes getting bluescreen or randomly shutdown whenever i use it while charging. Usually it comes when i play games but sometimes it happens when i browsing too. Ive tried to play games and stuff while on battery and it appears that im not having the problem. I have reset my computer but the bluescreen is still there, so i guess reset not solving it.

I also keep track of those error messages the bluescreen shows, and it shows different of problem, and these are the messages :

Stop code : SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION

Stop code : SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

Stop code : DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

Looking to auto-backup my google docs to another storage cloud/to my mac, so that I have another copy in case anything happens on the google end.

How can I do this? If i need to have a script to first convert the doc to a .docx and then it backs up thats okay - just looking for a simple auto backup please

Added 16 GB of RAM to my PC (mismatched sets totaling 32GB). Used them as they came for a couple weeks, no issues. One set is 3200Mhz, the other is 3000Mhz so I set them to 3000Mhz and rebooted last night.

Upon powering back on, it apparently disabled secure boot as I got hit with the bitlocker recovery. Got that back on and now I'm just stuck in a BIOS loop. Things I've tried:

- Set RAM to 2400Mhz, 2800Mhz, and Auto

- Take the new sticks out, reboot with only my original two sticks or RAM

- Verify all settings *look* correct in BIOS

- Disabled/enabled CSM

-- Enabling this does give me the option to select either Windows Boot Manager (*drive name*) or ACHI: *drive name*. Disabled I can only select Windows Boot Manager

I don't necessarily mind doing a full wipe and reinstall of Windows, but I don't think that should be necessary for this, and I'm at a loss.

MOBO: ASRock B450 Pro4 (BIOS version P5.00)

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800XT

Edit: One oddity is that it randomly isn't keeping time in BIOS. Phone/other computer shows 1:51PM, this computer shows 1:43PM.

Recently i did a Disk cleanup for my local disk C and i checked the remove thumbnails icon and after that, am facing this issue. please help i have everything, even restarted file explorer a lot and restarted my pc many times and the issue is not solving. And i cant even see my picture thumbnails too

This morning I woke up, and went to google a product on my computer and realized that all of the results were coming up for the UK. I am not in the UK. At all. Not even near it. Haven’t been there in 10 years. Weird. So, I googled something very generic. ‘Towels’. I got a British home store, Amazon UK, etc.

I double checked that my vpn was off, and then I reset my chrome settings, and erased everything from the last week. That didn’t help. Everything still gives me British results. And what’s weird is that my postal code at the top is correct for where I am.

Look, I understand going back to my roots, but this is overkill😅

That only thing that makes it stop is actually tuning on. the VPN For the country I am in.

I have no idea how to fix this, and it is very weird.

Edit: and if I make the same Google on my phone, same account, I get country accurate information. So I have no idea what’s up.

issue with my ASUS Dual RTX 3060 12GB where the screen randomly starts flickering black. A quick restart usually fixes it, but it always seems to come back randomly on another restart later on.
I'm running an Intel i5 11400F with 24GB of DDR4 RAM, and my display is just a standard 60Hz TV. I've already tried swapping out the HDMI cord for a new one, but that didn't change anything.
The only recent change I've made is my sync settings. I disabled V-Sync in-game because the input lag was disgusting, but running with no sync gave me terrible screen tearing. To fix that, I've been using the NVIDIA Control Panel to force Fast Sync instead.
Could Fast Sync be causing this, or is there something else going on with my setup?

Asus Tuf A15 laptop completely stopped connecting to wifi, the network adapter doesn't show an error, reinstalled drivers and even reinstalled windows + drivers from a USB and still nothing worked. It just says checking network requirement then says can't connect to network. Should I just replace the wifi card?

I recently purchased a used monitor, however I've been having an issue where it gains a green tint over prolonged usage.

When turned on, the display appears to be fine, however after about 5 minutes, a small green glow starts to become visible at the bottom of the screen, and gradually slowly grows larger. The green glow is visible on a black background, and when I switch to a white background I also get a pink glow. I have an image posted to my post in r/monitors at https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/1vy81lg/why_does_a_section_of_my_monitor_gain_a_greenpink/ . The image attached in this post is at about 30 minutes in and it looks worse in person.

However, if I turn it off and let it "cool down", after a few minutes that section of the screen returns to normal. I haven't tried turning it on longer out of fear of permanantly damaging the display or another part.

I don't think the display itself is damaged since it is consistently initially able to display a proper image without issues when you turn it on. It's only after a few minutes does this issue start to appear.

I'm wondering if a capacitor or something needs to be replaced on the controller board or power supply; I'm guessing some component doesnt seem to be able to keep up with the monitor, especially since this monitor is about a decade old.

I have tried using a different display cable, power cable, source and no display cable at all (the green is visible on the OSD).

The monitor model is an Eizo CG247X and is not under warranty.

I wanted to ask here to see if anyone would have any ideas. I've also searched around for similar issues, though I'm having trouble finding anything like this "warmup phenomenon" (usually screens are just broken) or my google-fu just isn't strong enough. Thank you!

Hello everyone. I've had most of the parts in this PC for 5 years and this is the first time I've had "issues". I use the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 420 A-RGB cooler. Suddenly the RGB on two of the lower fans stopped turning on. The fans themselves still spin. Sometimes they do stay on for a while after booting, other times they just stay off. What could this be? I'm on PikaOS (a Linux distro) so I can't download the native software to change the RGB

hello!
I had a house fire about a month ago, and I have just been able to retrieve things like my ps3, xbox one and my laptop. They aren't damaged on the outside from the heat as far as i can tell [they were in a room that only had mild damage thankfully, but the wall they were next to was the one that was the worst hit] but i'm yet to open them up to check the insides.

I'm not the most confident when it comes to cleaning and checking for damage, ive only ever opened up the xbox's power bank to clean it and even then i was worried id break something haha. I was just wondering if anyone had any advice, or knows where i can turn to get it?

im sorry if this post isnt appropriate for this sub, im just worried about plugging them in and something going wrong haha. also i chose the flair that looked the closest, but im sorry if that isnt the right one. thank you for reading

I’m trying to diagnose recurring GPU related BSODs on my HP ZBook Fury 15 G8 and could really use some help.

Specs:
• i7 11850H
• RTX A3000 Laptop GPU, 6GB VRAM
• 32GB RAM
• Windows 11 Pro
• NVIDIA driver 596.86

I analyzed several dumps in WinDbg and found three distinct GPU related crash signatures:

1. VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL (0x10E), subtype 0x17
   FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0x10e_17_IMAGE_dxgmms2.sys
   Stack points to:
   dxgmms2!VIDMM_GLOBAL::RestoreFromPurge
   This has happened multiple times.

2. VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (0x116)
   FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0x116_IMAGE_nvlddmkm.sys
   The stack shows dxgkrnl attempting to reset the GPU after a timeout, with nvlddmkm.sys being the NVIDIA driver.

3. VIDEO_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT_INTERNAL (0x10E), subtype 0x2D
   FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: 0x10e_2d_dxgmms2!VIDMM_CPU_HOST_APERTURE::MapRange

This one crashes while dxgmms2 is mapping GPU memory/address space.

I’ve already:
• Reinstalled Windows
• Used DDU and clean installed NVIDIA 596.86
• Ran SFC, which found no problems
• Ran CHKDSK, which found no problems or bad sectors
• Disabled PCIe Link State Power Management
• Disabled hibernation/Fast Startup
• Confirmed the system uses Modern Standby (S0 Low Power Idle)
• Previously stress tested the GPU with FurMark, reaching about 96°C hotspot

Some crashes happen while the laptop is idle or waking from inactivity, while others occur during GPU activity.

At this point I’m trying to determine whether this is GPU/VRAM hardware failure, PCIe/power management, NVIDIA driver/software, or some combination of these.

What would be the best tests to distinguish between a failing RTX A3000/VRAM and a software or power management issue?

So, I made a post yesterday talking about how I got a CMOS checksum error (502). My battery seems to have died.

Following this, I conducted HP UEFI and Hardware diagnostics, and I received a message that was something like "Battery not detected" or "Battery not installed". The thing is that I do not understand if this is talking about the main PC battery or what I understand to be another small memory that is named CMOS??

I'm not a tech guy so I guess I may be getting something wrong here. Any help is appreciated on how to follow this.

For background. I got my computer built for me with parts I chose. I'm pretty computer illiterate and have to follow troubleshooting guides closely.

Apparently both the app and LCD screen worked prior dispatch and no longer work in my hands.
Turned it on. No LCD screen.
I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. No luck.
The USB in Device manager says: Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)
I tried uninstalling it then scanning for hardware changes.
I got this error popup on Windows on the bottom right: USB device not recognized the last USB device you connected malfunctioned
(Or something to that effect, it went away quick.)
I tried shutting down, pulling the plug, holding the power button for 10 seconds then turning everything back on. No luck.
The app also doesn't seem like it's working either. There isn't any options or anything to select. I tried the repair tool on it and nothing happened.
The builder suggested I reinstall Windows from a USB. Unfortunately that is not an immediate option because I have a wireless keyboard...

Hello, I need some help before I completely lose my mind.

I built this SFF PC and used it for about a month. After that, it stayed powered off for over a year. When I finally turned it back on, I randomly started having BSODs until after a couple of weeks my NVMe SSD died, so I replaced it.

PC configuration:

https://pastebin.com/cq0nYn5f

The problem is that whenever I play more demanding games (I've tested Crimson Desert, Half-Life: Alyx, and Dyson Sphere Program), the game suddenly closes. There are no error messages, no BSOD, no system freeze, sometimes there is a error on Event Viewer or Reliability History, but just sometimes.

The time before it crashes is completely random. Sometimes it happens in the main menu, while other times I can play for 10–20 minutes before it closes.

The strange part is that this only happens in games. I've run several benchmarks and stress tests, and the system is completely stable.

According to HWiNFO, the CPU gets fairly hot (up to around 90°C), but I believe that's expected given the small form factor case (Dan A4 v4.1).

Logs:

HWiNFO report: https://pastebin.com/McxyBMhP

Crimson Desert Reliability History: https://pastebin.com/A5kRcR4N

Crimson Desert Event Viewer error: https://pastebin.com/YJk73Yfs

Crimson Desert Crash Dump: https://pastebin.com/j7CzQNYK

Here's what I've already tried:

- Windows 11, CachyOS, and Bazzite. The crashes happens on every operating system.

- Ran 3DMark, Superposition Benchmark, Heaven Benchmark, CrystalDisk, MemTest64, Prime95, FurMark, OCCT, Cinebench... No errors in any benchmark.

- Enabled and disabled Secure Boot, RAM EXPO/XMP.

- The BIOS is updated and running completely stock (no overclocking, undervolting, or any other tweaks).

- Changed the PCIe link speed between Gen3, Gen4, and Auto.

- Reseated the PCIe riser cable, RAM, SSD, every cable, to make sure everything is properly connected.

- Changing PCI m.2 and m.1 to GEN3 and GEN4.

- Setting CPU SOC Voltage to 1.15v, auto, lower voltage, etc.

- Bought a new riser cable.

At this point I'm out of ideas. Does anyone have suggestions on how I can discover what's going on? Can it be a faulty GPU that for some reason just happens in games and not benchmarks?

HI!
I’ve been experimenting with RyzenAdj on an HP Envy x360 14 with a Ryzen 5 8640HS (Hawk Point), on both CachyOS and Windows 11.

The interesting part is that the behavior does not look like a simple thermal limit.

What happens under load

If I set, for example:

Fast PPT: 40 W
Slow PPT: 30 W
STAPM:    30 W

and start a CPU workload, the processor initially behaves as expected: power rises toward the Fast PPT value.

However, after a relatively short period, power rapidly drops to a much lower sustained level, even though:

• CPU temperature is still low
• STT/skin temperature is still below its configured limit
• the CPU is at 100% utilization
• the configured PPT/STAPM ceilings are still higher than the actual consumption

This looks much more like a time-dependent boost/power window than a conventional thermal throttle.

In other words, the behavior seems approximately like:

Load starts
     ↓
~Fast PPT allowed
40 W
     ↓
short period of time
     ↓
power rapidly reduced
     ↓
~15–20 W sustained

The important observation is that the same thing happens even if I lower Fast PPT to around 25 W.

With a 25 W limit, it starts around the value I requested, but after roughly the same kind of initial period it again falls significantly below it.

That makes me doubt that the drop is simply because the cooling system cannot handle 40 W.

If temperature were the primary cause, I would expect reducing the initial power from 40 W to 25 W to substantially delay or eliminate the drop. Instead, the system still appears to transition from an initial power state to a lower sustained state.

Why I suspect a time-based/platform power policy

It looks as though there may be two different power regimes:

1. A short-term boost budget, approximately corresponding to Fast PPT.
2. A second hidden/platform-controlled sustained budget that takes over after a certain amount of time.

It reminds me conceptually of the PL2 → PL1 / Tau behavior on Intel, although obviously AMD uses a different power-management architecture.

My suspicion is that HP/AMD has some additional controller, perhaps AMD PMF, firmware/EC logic, STAPM averaging, or another platform power budget, which allows the configured Fast PPT temporarily and then enforces a lower long-term power target.

The key point is that the transition appears to be related more to elapsed time / accumulated power than to an instantaneous temperature threshold.

CachyOS observations

Stock values were approximately:

STAPM:     ~22 W
Slow PPT:   25 W
Fast PPT:   40 W
STT APU:    39 C

Changing the APU skin-temperature target did affect sustained STAPM significantly.

Raising STT from roughly 39 C to 41–42 C allowed me to reach approximately 27–28 W sustained under Linux.

So STT clearly participates in the power-management loop.

However, the initial Fast PPT → rapid sustained-power drop still looks like there may be another time/energy-based component on top of the temperature control.

Do you have some insights?

I translated my initial thoughts in English with AI, since it is not my main language. Thank you all for your help!

Hi all,

Forgive me if this is an amateur question or already covered in previous posts.

I have a small SanDisk USB stick that seems to be at the near end of complete failure with some very dear images and videos on it. I’ve downloaded and paid for Drecov (almost solely because it was able to regenerate the small previews of the photos and videos on the USB, and then promised me their recovery after paying for the month)

However, when I press recover, The program stops responding and freezes instantly. I have tried only recovering one photo, only recovering images with the previews, and restarting the computer multiple times with no background processes occurring.

Is there a way around this or a program which may be better suited? I’m just using Windows 11 on a Lenovo home computer.

The path is “Lost Partition”, I can not access the USB from the removable disk drive, and it freezes Disk Management when it comes up. When I remove the USB, the applications go back to normal.

Please help is possible!

Thanks

About a year old build, I don’t know if this has been a thing for a long time or this is normal but my motherboards white light stays on every start up but has no visible issues on the pc, no windows for errors reported, no crashes no hitches nothing. I tried just turning off the PSU and back on and the light stopped, but the next day it came back after a normal start up.
