Intel DX58SO suddenly no display showing
# I have a CPU with Intel DX58SO motherboard 12GB(4X3) DDR3 RAM combo. It was working fine for a simple work like excel, word docs and occasional youtube and other social media. It has Win11 working. Yesterday all of a sudden while watching a documentary on youtube the screen went off while the CPU running. Since then no matter I do the display never comes on. I started researching and I've narrowed down the issues to the motherboard. The board powers on just fine, GPU(GeForce GT710 2GB DDR3 PCIE) fans spin up, CPU fan runs fine, the HDD drive light turns on briefly when booting up the system, and the 24-pin power light turns on just fine. I've tried it running with and without RAM, with just 1 RAM in all 4 slots(one slot at a time) and the board won't POST. I think the processor is Intel i7900 series and am sure it is not the processor problem but I could be wrong. I've also tried clearing the CMOS which did nothing. It does not give any audio/beeps debug. Unfortunately, it doesn't have an LED debug readout, so I can't really use those for troubleshooting. Is there anything else that I should try to get this old board up and running?

Why does bringing my ipad near my laptop cause the screen to shut off and not turn back on?
I have an ipad, don't know the model, and a predator helios 300. I often have my ipad directly either infront of or ontop of the keyboard (usually over the trackpad, not on any bottuns) because when I draw I keep references on my laptop. For some reason when it's near my laptop like this it causes the screen to shut off, and the light indicator for the screen flashes yellow when I try and turn it on. I'm less looking to fix the problem (I imagine I can do so by keeping my ipad away from my laptop) and more looking to know why it happens or if there are ways I can have them near each other while keeping the screen working :PP

What should I buy for 40 dollars?
I have 40 dollars in gift cards I would like to spend. I have considered rasberry pi, really old laptops and chromebooks, and ipods, but I can't decide what to get.

Finally finished the "Retina Burner" 2026 Edition. 9800X3D + 5080 is an absolute beast.
