Secondly, MaxxAudio does not pop up when I connect headphones (I have the popup setting correctly configured) I can only get sound if I connect headphones BEFORE I start the PC (Dell Precision 3460) As far as I can remember, I have disabled the internal speaker ..read more

I've worked on many notebooks over the years and never been unable to find info on my problem before but I'm stuck. The notebook would shut down when booting ( very quickly ) tested hard drive and it is fine. Tried to reset the bios ( not flashed ) to default and the notebook froze, so did a hard shutdown. On reboot a screen shows up immediately with flashing colored squares. ( See photo ) There is no hard drive installed so can't be a driver. Any ideas? Thanks ..read more

I have two mice, both Logitech (510 and 330) both are driving me crazy. Windows did one of those reboots in the middle of the night and after that both mice have exhibited a stop and go, then get stuck. I switched the USB to another plug and one of the mice began to work somewhat normal, maybe a 7 out of 10. Checked all the Admin stuff and they all say mice are working fine and driver's are up to date. Processor 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700KF 3.61 GHz Installed RAM... Stuck Mice ..read more

All of a sudden, spell check across all my W-11 apps have stopped working. I don't know which program ran in the background but when I used to type in either Outlook, notepad, wordpad, Facebook etc; if there was a mispelled word, it wouyld underline it and I would right-click on the word for suggestions. Note that even in the prior sentence, the "wouyld" was not suggested for correction as it used to do. Again, this spell-check featyre used to run along with all other text apps. Any ideas ..read more

With Dell computers, you can do a 'refresh' of your copy of Windows 10. Is this like the old 'repair install' of Windows from back in the day that was not a complete reinstall? Basically, I want to completely reinstall the registry. I have too many strange problems happening with my current installation. The other options are to either: 2) 'restore' using Dell's Windows Push-Button reset. 3) reinstall using the Windows Recovery Environment ..read more

Hello. I recently did a search on google which netted me these results: Without much thought I clicked on on the first/featured link, which brought me to this page: And then I clicked on the link inside.

Hi all, Got a bit of an issue with quite a powerful desktop setup, running dual monitors. This thing was working fine on Sunday, (it belongs to my neighbour), and he used to be able to go onto YouTube Music, and it would play on his TV. No more. Nothing Google permitted. Not sure what's going on, but System Restore will only allow us to go back 4 days, (20.04.2024). He can access Edge, but that's it - he has all kinds of random "utilities" installed, some that work, others that don't. There...

So originally I noticed my laptop battery getting bad, when I would take it off of the charger and use the laptop independently, it would shut off on me at random moments, but I wouldn't have the same issue when I would leave it on the charger. Eventually I started to get the battery notification showing that there was no battery identified on my laptop, so it meant the laptop had to rely on a charger to be used. I bought a second hand battery, along with a second hand charger (my old... Acer Aspire e7-575g laptop won't charge or turn on ..read more

Hello. I am wondering if there are any recommended collaborative modelling tools out there (like Figma or Miro), which can check a certain objects through all the files in the groups' repository. For example, my team has 3 files, let's say File 1,2, and 3. The objects in each files are as follows: File 1 = A, A, B, B, C. File 2 = A, B, C, D. File 3 = B, C, C, D. If we check/search for object A, the desired result is highlighting/informing me the location of all A(s), or where all A(s) are...
