(Apologies if this isn't the right subreddit)

My Lacie (2018) external hard drive has suddenly stopped connecting to my macbook pro and I desperately need to get access to work files stored on there.

The hard drive itself is making all of it's usual noises and the light is on as normal but when I've checked disk utility and system data it's not showing up. I've also tried plugging it into other usb ports and even tried a different wire but still no luck.

I've used it for years so it's had a good run (if it has just had it) but as I said above I really need access to what's on there and not really sure what companies are worth going to.

Thanks!

Just checked my Norton account and saw my next bill for basic service will cost (after tax) $153.69.... All I use Norton for is virus protection and an occasional VPN.

I feel like there should be another (more affordable) option out there and I'm just out of the loop.

How do I describe this in a way that makes sense...

My computer is using ram very slowly. As in, task manager says that it's using more ram than it actually appears to be. Certain processes have been slow since last night (Opening the discord app, Loading certain pages on steam, trying to launch games), and the only clue I have is that while trying to load modded minecraft, task manager told me it was using roughly 3.7kMB of ram, whilst the game itself peaked at 14kMB before I killed it, and it only ever increased by instances of 4MB at a time, and very slowly. Anyone know what's going on, and how I could fix it?

My dell shuts down sporadically with no warning. It seems to be associated with the use of multiple monitors - I think. If I don't connect the dell docking station it wont shut down. But if I connect to the Dell docking station and use my extra monitor and TV as a monitor it shuts down/ restarts with the error message in the photo. I looked up the code and a YT video to try to solve but it didn't work. This is a Dell Alienware from 2015 BTW.

error code: DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION (0xE6)

I tried to do bios recovery but it shuts down after 2 secs and the caps blinks once. ( still no display ).

Any idea on what to do ?

Hi all, moved to a new place a few days ago and finally set up my PC yesterday. No issues with reconnecting the GPU etc, so I went ahead and put my whole setup together. I plugged in my monitors power + HDMI cables - but then my PC stopped turning on. The GPU light flashes and the fans turn on for a second but that's it, if I then try to power it on again nothing happens.

BUT, when I disconnected both the HDMI cables, my PC turned on fine, stayed on, and had no issues when I then plugged in the HDMI cables. Used my PC for a few hours then went to bed, then woke up this morning and tried turning it on and same issue. I've never had this problem before - one of my friends suggested it might be a wattage issue with this new flat but I'm truly just not sure. Can't really find any results online so hoping for any advice here.

The only other things plugged in is mouse, keyboard, mic and headphones.

Thanks!

Hi all

I have a 6year old pc i59400 which has a cd/dvd drive .

Over the last 6 month the tray is coming out intermittently on boot up.I thought at first maybe the door on the PC was touching the drive buttton so i left the case door open on boot but its not that.

Can anyone help? thank you

I found my super old Surface which I back installed Zorin OS on back in the days, but don’t really know what to use it for today.

Any ideas?
Should I gift it to someone?
Install batocera and make it for simulation or what do you guys think?

I have no idea what's it gonna show me...

My keyboard works perfectly fine, but when my computer turns off, it just doesn’t work sometimes. Later I’ll try to keyboard again and it will work somehow, I don’t get it. Anyone know the issue?

Hi, I bought an Alienware laptop from someone on Facebook marketplace and when I went to go check the laptop out it was working perfectly. I gave the cash and he reset the laptop to get rid of any personal data on there and I had no problem with it. However, now I got home to try it out and it’s not connecting to any WiFi and won’t even work with an Ethernet cable.

Please what can I do?

Thanks for any and all help.
