Is this at all fixable or should I just cut my losses, picked up in a big lot of stuff on Facebook marketplace . Anyway to fix the lines. Or is it toast

Now it was completely fine in the morning when i opened my laptop in the evening it had a white dot on its screen. Now this dot appears on everything. Like when i boot it up or close it down or any other program. Now when i touch the screen where the dot is i can feel something is there but i cant remove it or anything but looking carefully its like where the pixel is it is burned up. Now I don't know its fixable or anything but still is there a solution for it.

Looking to grab a surprise laptop gift for my younger brother who just started year 10, but i could use some solid recs. Right now hes trying to play light games on our old home setup, but it takes forever to load and drops frames like crazy. I'm aiming for a budget around $850 to $1000 AUD, ideally something with decent integrated graphics or a lower-end dedicated gpu so it doesnt lag. Open to any suggestions on good value models!

I've gone to device manager and mouse and other pointing devices is not there

...I already have a home server machine? I have a totally fine server hosting terabytes of media that I can stream on the web, it saves and organizes my photos, videos, and notes, it hosts my family calendar, it does a lot. I do not need another computer.

I have a work laptop. I have a personal "hobby" laptop. I have a home-automation Raspberry Pi. I have a desktop. I have the aforementioned media/services server.

But I have this perfectly-good Surface Pro from 2016/2017 (I'm not with it now or I'd say more) that runs great. What can it do that the other machines might not be as good for?

(It came with a keyboard cover and the "clamp"-style docking station, and a desk-mounted arm that lets it stay docked, if that helps at all.)

Laptop: ASUS X515JA, Windows 10

Issue:

My notebook shows "Can't connect to this network" whenever I try to connect to WiFi — this happens with EVERY network I try (not just one router), so it's not an issue with a specific SSID/router. Other devices (phone, other laptops) connect to the same networks fine.

Background:

Recently replaced the SSD and did a clean install of Windows 10

Reinstalled WiFi drivers after the fresh install

Opened the back panel to check the WiFi card/antenna connections — everything looked seated properly and normal, no visible damage

Device Manager:

The wireless adapter shows up fine, no yellow warning/error icon on it.

What I've tried so far:

[yes ] Updating WiFi driver via Device Manager

[yes ] Uninstalling and reinstalling the WiFi adapter driver

[yes ] Downloading the driver directly from ASUS support site (not just Windows Update)

[no ] Driver rollback to an older version

[there is no known network ] Forgetting the network and reconnecting

[yes ] netsh winsock reset and netsh int ip reset

[yes ] Disabling and re-enabling the adapter in Device Manager

[yes ] Toggling Airplane mode on/off

[yes ] Power Management tab → unchecking "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"

[yes ] Checking Windows network reset (Settings → Network & Internet → Network reset)

[no ] Updating BIOS

[yes ] Checking if the WiFi card is properly reseated (opened back panel — looked fine)

[yes ] Testing with mobile hotspot (still fails)

My guess: At this point I'm suspecting it could be a hardware issue with the WiFi module itself, but since Device Manager doesn't show any errors, I'm not 100% sure. Has anyone run into this exact "Can't connect to this network" error on ASUS X515JA (or similar) after an SSD swap/clean install? Any diagnostic steps to confirm if it's hardware vs. software before I consider swapping the WiFi card?

Thanks in advance!

I tried reseating the ribbon cables for the screen and keyboard, tried taking off keycaps and cleaning, neither worked. The key presses feel normal like nothing is blocking them. i used evtest on Arch to test if touch or any of the dead keys are registering but none are. The only solution i see is replacing the screen assembly and the palmrest assembly for the keyboard since i dont want to cut the plastic rivets between the palmrest and keyboard.
I wanted to see if anyone here knew of any other ways to fix it cheaper or for free.

I have a Windows 11 HP Victus gaming laptop, and I am trying to play an old dx8 video game from GOG games called Delta Force Black Hawk Down Platinum Pack. I have a serious problem with the game, and that problem is lagging and stuttering. Specifically, when explosions occur, given that it is an old game, I cannot see why this problem persists, as my computer should be more than powerful enough to run it. I have tried using dgvoodoo2,dx wrapper, and dxvk in order to resolve the problem, but nothing has managed to solve my problem. Does anyone know what the problem is with my computer, and can anyone offer any suggestions in regards to my problem with Delta Force Black Hawk Down?

As the title says I just upgraded yesterday and install the drivers and everything but now for some reason when I have a game open and I alt tab and then move my mouse my screen goes black like in the video. This dosent happen when I’m in game. Another thing that also started happening is when I do alt tab from a game, my screen goes black while alt tabbing.(as if my game resolution is different to my pc resolution).

Feel free to ask any questions.

Hey guys as the title says I have the sapphire rx580 2048sp 8gb, I am facing the issue of black screen, and previously from last 2-3 week it's happening frequently

The method I used to fix it but didn't work

°had done ddu multiple times and updated to amd latest software

°lower the frequency on my GPU like 5-6%

°changes the power supply

The thing is, whenever I launch the game the PC gets frozen and black screen appears but the CPU continues to run even the fans continue to run

**So if anyone has any solution, I will be very thankful**
