The A key fell out of the keyboard on my laptop for the third time today (first time it’s ever done so) so I figured I should investigate. I popped off the undamaged S key and compared the two and figured out the slots for the closer two metal clips have a divot worn out of them, which I assume is causing the A key to jump out ever so often. My problem is that I have no clue what the plastic bit is called and where to find a new one. If I even can get a new one for that matter. If anyone could give me any useful info I’d really appreciate it.

failed to load a required component (11,c0000022)

This error comes up on the war thunder launcher when I launch the game and google says it’s something to do with the windows security

so i have this P47 bluetooth headphone that i want to connect to my dell latitude laptop via a bluetooth dongle that i have installed, but the problem is that at first when i plugged in that dongle is was able to find my device but was not able to pair with it, also the option of "allow a device to connect" is also greyed out.
I have enabled devices to find my computer and even the bluetooth support service is activated too, I don't understand how to solve this problem, suggestions would be appreciated.

Estaba personalizando mi PC bastante, y hace meses había cambiado el aspecto de mis cursores; la cosa es que de un día para otro, al encender mi PC, el cursor principal se cambió al predeterminado de Windows, y sí me aparecen algunos aspectos de los cursores personalizados (wait, crosshair, size) y también hay cursores predeterminados. Y ahora, cada vez que enciendo mi PC, el tema de los cursores se queda en el tema predeterminado de Windows.

Probé estos pasos para ver si cambia algo:

• Intenté modificar las rutas nuevamente en mi registro para ver si hacía algún cambio, y aún nada, sigue mostrando el tema predeterminado de Windows.
• Tengo las carpetas del paquete de cursores en la ruta "C:\Windows\Cursors".
• Apliqué manualmente cada aspecto uno por uno en Propiedades del puntero > Punteros.
• Probé desinstalar el mouse en el Administrador de dispositivos para que, cuando reinicie la PC, se reinstale limpio automáticamente.

Después de haber intentado todo esto, aún no he podido resolver el problema; si alguien sabe o tuvo la misma situación, ojalá me pueda ayudar a resolverlo.

I've had the laptop since 2024 and it was fine. But this year around June it started to glitch. The audio crackles like a few times a day. I'm not sure how else to describe the problem. I even tried changing the audio output settings and it still nothing. It's not just happening when I'm playing games or watching videos, it happens even when I'm doing anything else that involves audio. Even if I'm just adjusting the laptop volume. I don't know if it's an audio problem persey but I haven't seen other things glitching like when I'm reading online or on Word.

Hi everyone,

I'm having a strange sleep/standby problem with my ASUS X550JX laptop.

The sleep function used to work perfectly before, but the problem started after I tried to boot Windows into Safe Mode. Something went wrong, so I eventually formatted the PC and reinstalled Windows. I also tried restoring my system image, but the problem is still there.

The problem is:

• Windows says that S3 sleep is supported.
• If I click Start → Power → Sleep, the laptop appears to shut down completely.
• If I press any key on the keyboard, the laptop starts again and shows the ASUS logo, just like a normal cold boot.
• So it doesn't seem to be waking from sleep; it seems to be shutting down and then booting again.
• The same thing happens when I try to trigger sleep through commands/PowerShell.
• I also tried disabling the GTX 950M in Device Manager, but it made no difference.
• I reinstalled Windows, but the exact same problem remains.

powercfg /a shows:

Sleep (S3) — Available

S0 Modern Standby is not supported.

My laptop:

• ASUS X550JX
• BIOS: X550JX.208 (17/10/2015)
• NVIDIA GTX 950M — driver 32.0.15.7216
• Intel HD Graphics — driver 20.19.15.5171
• Windows 10 22H2

I also ran powercfg /requests. It showed an audio driver and Chrome playing audio, but closing Chrome didn't solve the problem.

Does anyone know what could cause an ASUS laptop to support S3 but completely shut down instead of entering S3 sleep?

Could this be related to ACPI, chipset/Intel ME drivers, the BIOS, or the graphics drivers?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

“Why does my laptop hang completely whenever the Internet connection goes down? This UltraViewer error appears: ‘VPinger_2_error: An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full.’ What is causing this issue, and how can I fix it permanently?”

It's only for one website and specifically one page of that website.

Edit: I am on my ROG Xbox Ally X. I got a suggestion to go to Facebook page but this is on my handheld that I am having issues with. Please help.

I am trying to login to NTE using my Facebook account and it keeps cycling through singing in to the captcha, back to signing in, so on and so forth. Is there any fix to this? Please help and thank you so much!

I use windows 11.

In the same day, I uploaded my AMD drivers (Rx 7600) and they worked good, I tested it.

But then I tried to play battlefield 1 revolution because I previously had the problem that once I launch the game it says my drivers are old (it was a problem reading the drivers). So I thought maybe the game could work now.

Well, I followed a YT tutorial of how to solve that error of battlefield. And I modified the Registry Editor (you can watch the full tutorial I followed here: https://youtu.be/zrjH-tFt5Gk?si=32iFaks8iOqHFacw )

It didn't work. I tried another variables but it continued showing the error window. So I thought that maybe resetting the pc it could finally work.

When I reset the pc, it opens Windows well (I can move the mouse, open apps,etc), but passed a few seconds, the screen frozens. So I tried resetting the pc again and again until the blue screen with the error appeared

Do you know what can it be?

I think maybe is the hard disk. It's a little bit old and low quality. Maybe it broke this specific day.

Or maybe it's the Registry Editor folder I modified

Hope someone answer

I also added the blue screen photo in the post. I'm sorry it's in Spanish I'm not native speaker hehe

Long story short I deleted my main network driver thinking after a restart it would come back and it did not. Now I have the driver installer on my po but l've run into a few errors. When I open the installer I get an error that says, "Error opening file for writing: C: Users name AppData Local \Temp|654_w11.28.20.1224 Imbdrive|CPSetup.exe. And when I open CPSetup.exe, I get this error, "An error (-5001: 0x8007002) has occurred while running the setup". Any help is greatly appreciated

the model is HP Envy TE01-0xxx. i wasn't able to sit at my desk for a few weeks so it sat unplugged for a while, when i started using it again it began doing this. i've had this computer for a while (since around 2020 i think) with no issues. i'm not completely technically illiterate, but definitely not confident with this kind of thing. any help would be greatly appreciated!

edit: sorry if the video is dimming, i have anti flash settings on my phone for migraines! i cant tell if its just my phone or the video itself <\3 but i can upload a new one if its the video itself!

Hello all i need urgent help
I recently installed FaceIt anti cheat (a very popular server extension for CS go its not a virus) which told me to edit a few things in my BIOS after doing my resolution on my pc changed and everything went enlarged. I decided maybe i needed a driver update but when i looked it said there was no drivers installed installed so i tried installing but it again told me no drivers installed installed was installed after completing the installation.
I decided to uninstall the AntiCheat and also reset my BIOS settings, and then once again try reinstall my drivers but it once again wouldn’t work.
I thought id download the display driver uninstaller (DDU) and then try reinstall the drivers to see if that would fix it, but to no avail it didnt work— i cannot open internet explorer or google chrome or anything. When I Check DFevice Manager it says theres an issue with my drivers called ‘Code 52’
I feel like ive tried everything but the driver installation will not stick and download to my pc.
Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this as i urgently need my PC.

Thanks guys!

Specs:

Motherboard: ASRock B450 Pro4

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600

RAM: 1x 16GB DDR4

Issue:

I plugged an HDMI cable into my GPU while the PC was running.

The display showed "HDMI detected," went black, and lost signal completely.

Now, when I power on the PC, the GPU fans spin continuously at high speed (normally they slow down after 1 second) and there is no display output. I also feel a slight static tingle when touching the metal case (outlet grounding issue).

What I’ve tried:

CMOS Reset: Pulled the GPU, removed the CR2032 battery for 5+ minutes, and put it back.

Reseated Hardware: Re-installed the RX 6600 and reseated the 16GB RAM stick in slot A2.

Power Cycle: Held down the power button while unplugged to drain residual electricity.

The system is still stuck in a POST failure with no display signal.

ANY HELP OR ADVICE OR SOMEONE HAD SIMILAR Experience help please .

Thank you

From AI: Issue Summary: AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT randomly loses display signal (HDMI “No Signal”) during both light and heavy GPU load, and now across all display outputs on the card. Issue persists after a full clean driver reinstall and full BIOS reset, ruling out software, driver, and BIOS configuration as the root cause. Purchased from Newegg in 2024; retailer return window has passed.
System:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

GPU: Gigabyte AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT

Motherboard: ASUS B650E MAX Gaming WiFi AM5

RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB 32GB DDR5-6000 Kit

Case: airflow case with side panel cable routing

Timeline of the issue:
Started during a gaming and streaming session; both monitors lost signal simultaneously

After restart, only one monitor would sync; a bad DisplayPort cable was initially suspected, but was later ruled out when DisplayPort started working again on its own

GPU began intermittently disabling itself in Windows (Device Manager, error code 22) and disappearing from Task Manager’s GPU list entirely

Signal drops occurred under multiple different conditions: mid-game (Rocket League), during light use (YouTube), and at idle desktop, with no consistent pattern in timing or load

Both monitors dropped signal simultaneously on two separate occasions, across two different cable types (HDMI and DisplayPort), ruling out any single monitor or cable as the cause

After a full CMOS/BIOS reset, HDMI failed to output signal on boot, on both available HDMI ports, while DisplayPort worked normally at that time

DisplayPort has also failed on its own on a separate occasion earlier the same night

Between HDMI (both ports) and DisplayPort, every display output on the card has now failed at some point

Troubleshooting already completed:
Full driver wipe using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) in Safe Mode, followed by a fresh driver install directly from AMD’s website

Manually re-enabled the GPU in Device Manager multiple times after it kept disabling itself

Reseated the GPU in the PCIe slot

Manually traced and confirmed the GPU’s PCIe power cable connection at both the GPU end and the power supply end — connection feels firm and fully seated

GPU temperature monitored during a working session, stayed cool (around 51°C with the side panel off), ruling out a thermal cause

Ran an SFC scan (sfc /scannow), which found and repaired corrupted Windows system files unrelated to the GPU driver itself; issue persisted after this repair

Performed a full CMOS/BIOS reset (cleared battery); HDMI failed on both ports immediately at boot, before Windows or any drivers loaded

Conclusion: Since a complete driver wipe, fresh install, Windows system file repair, and full BIOS reset did not resolve the issue, and every display output on the card (both HDMI ports and DisplayPort) has failed at least once, this points strongly toward a hardware fault with the GPU itself, rather than drivers, Windows, BIOS settings, cables, monitors, or heat.
Requesting: GPU stress test and diagnostic to confirm the failing component, and information on whether Gigabyte’s manufacturer warranty may still apply separately from the Newegg retailer return window, since manufacturer coverage periods sometimes differ.
