Windows 10: Where is Microsoft support?

OK, Had been using a paid for W10 on one of my PC's. The PC showed up in my account under its device name, so I am guessing my W10 OS was linked. Motherboard died a few weeks ago, so could not check on that linkage. Contacted Support on 1-4-25 to request help, web page says they will "get right back" but no reply at all. Rebuilt PC, but now get a screen message to activate Windows. Microsoft Office noted that I had a new MOBO and CPU and re-activated itself, but Windows obviously finds this too difficult. 2nd request two days ago. but still no phone call back. No chat line available anymore, n

AMD FX OC'ers Club

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

 

B3 Phenom support

I checked gigabyte's site on my GA-M57 and it didn't say anything about b3 stepping update, but all of the x3 chips are b3 steppings, so just use the x3 support bios if available.

 

Microsoft Edge TLS Security

After trying everything (not a lot of steps) listed in the Microsoft Edge support site, I did a wider search and found this very simple youtube video that fixed it immediately:

For those who prefer not to click links the steps are simple:

1. Click in the Cortana search bar next to the Win 10 Start button

2. Type internet options

3. Select internet options (control panel) from the list

4. Click on the advanced tab

5. Scroll down to the security section

6. Make sure the following are all clicked:
Use SSL 3.0
Use TLS 1.0
Use TLS 1.1
Use TLS 1.2

7. Click apply

8. Refresh the page that was giving the error and it should now connect.

Hope this helps, it was a 30 second fix after hours of pounding my head against the error with the Support site suggestions.
