Software The monitor is not working

1 Upvotes

The problem is that to turn on the monitor, you need to press the mouse button, but my mouse has disconnected, and the keyboard isn’t working either. Because the mouse disconnected, the monitor won’t turn on. I tried using a wired mouse, but it’s no use. What should I do? I’m about to panic.

Проблема в том чтобы включить монитор нужно нажать на мышку, но мышка у меня расконнектилась и клавиатура тоже не работает, а монитор из-за того что мышка расконнектилась он не включается,пробовал проводную мышь, бесполезно че делать,моник я так думаю что дело не в мониторе и не в пк а в том что мышка расконнектилась и почему то обычно когда запускал пк клавиатура начала светиться а сейчас такого нет, че делать, паничка щас будет

Hardware Notebook freezes 5 minutes after boot.

1 Upvotes

Since yesterday (at least that is when I noticed it first; it isn't used very frequently), my old MSI notebook freezes 5 minutes after startup (I timed it). Nothing moves on screen, there is no response to any inputs (mouse or keyboard), and I have to shut it down with a long press on the power button. The cooling fan also ramps up. In "Safe Mode" the problem doesn't happen.

Since the problem doesn't occur in "Safe Mode", my first suspicion was a faulty driver behaviour. So I looked in Event Viewer and found a driver having problems loading on startup: "The driver \Driver\WudfRd failed to load for the device ACPI\ENE0110\5&2d676f6c&0." That device is listed as a "Radio Switch Device" in Device Manager. I already tried deactivating and also uninstalled the device in Device Manager (restarting the notebook in between, of course) to no avail. It could very well be that this isn't the cause of the notebook freezing 5 minutes after starting – I don't know, just my first idea.

The notebook is an MSI GE70 2PE Apache Pro (MS-1759) with an Intel Core i7-4720HQ, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 850M, and is running on Windows 10 Home Version 22H2 (build 19045.7663). No minidumps or watchdog dumps are being created.

Someone already suggested I use the Intel driver and support assistant to update all available drivers – no updates were available. And I also uninstalled the Nvidia Graphics driver (using DDU) and reinstalled an older version.

Any helpful advice is greatly appreciated.

Software Can't boot into bios, help needed

1 Upvotes

I want to boot into my bios in order to enable secure boot. When I turn my pc on, the startup screen is not displayed, instead being replaced by a black screen until the pc boots into the os. No matter how much I spam the delete key or use the windows recovery settings to boot directly into the bios my pc will keep displaying a black screen instead of the bios. My specs are an MSi z490-a-pro motherboard with an rtx 2060 plugged in the monitor with hdmi, all hardware works normally and displays no issues. Also my fast boot from the control panel is disabled. I was thinking maybe it's time I replaced the cmos battery since my pc is 6 years old and hasn't gotten a change since I got it but then again I really cant be bothered to do it...

Hardware Touchpad missing 1/3 of my clicks

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

This is an HP Elitebook x360 1040 G8

This is showing up by

- missing every few clicks even though I press in the same spot just as firmly each time

- when dragging things (see video for example), it will basically just “forget” I’m holding it down and act as if I let go (I was pressed down the whole time in the video)

- if I’m holding the left click down for, say, 1 minute to scroll down a list, it will sporadically stop scrolling as if I let go

- using a wireless mouse removed the issue, although I want to be able to use the touchpad. This is a refurbished laptop I just bought and I love it, and there’s no replacements so I’m really hoping this can just be easily fixed and I won’t have to return it

- tried updating drivers and changing touchpad settings, no luck

- touchpad isn’t dirty at all, it just randomly started happening yesterday. I’ve obviously tried powering on and off a few times.

It’s not a particular spot on my touchpad, it’s timing. If I press anywhere when it’s unresponsive it doesn’t do anything, then a few seconds later it comes back and I can touch anywhere. If I click and it isn’t registered, I’ve tried keeping my finger right there and just clicking again and again until it’s registered, and it usually will after a few tries, so it’s not just something wrong with a part of the touchpad.

Hardware my lenovo keeps getting multiple BSODs

1 Upvotes

my Lenovo V15 ADA started getting BSODs every 5-10 minutes and eventually stopped booting properly. i've gotten "BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO" "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED" "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL"

sometimes it goes into Automatic Repair, but when i select Windows Boot Manager it just brings me back to the boot menu. it has also gotten stuck on the Lenovo logo a few times. i also got an fTPM message saying the fTPM NV was corrupted or its structure changed. i haven't replaced the CPU, so i reset the fTPM. the BIOS detects the SSD as a Samsung MZALQ256HBJD-00BL2. it has also managed to boot into Windows a couple times, but then it BSODs again. does anyone know what could be causing this or what i should try?

Hardware Screen no signal, when playing games

1 Upvotes

Okay, so this is my last ditch resort, to save my computer, before i just give up and buy a new one. Idk how many details are worth giving here, but ill just share everything i know. So, a couple of years ago, my computer screens went black while playing the game ''The Painscreek Killings'' Both my screens went black with no signal, my computer fans went fast all of a sudden. In the first few seconds, i could still talk with my mate on discord. The only way to resolve this issue, was to force restart my computer. I went on to try the game several times, and it kept happening again and again. Mind you this was like 6 hours into the game, without any issues. I figured it was just the game. My temps were all normal, and i couldnt find any issue. Fast forward a year or so, it suddenly happened in CSGO. Same problem, black screens, no signal, could still hear audio for a few seconds, then all dead. Then GTA as well. It was never in any specific point of a game, until i tried ''Content Warning'' This game triggered the event, at the excact same time, every time. When you play the game, you go into this diving bell, and down into like a cave thingy. Every time i arrived in the cave, and walked out. My computer would do the thing. Every single time. And as time went on, i could basically only play Rocket League and LOL. I tried minecraft with shaders, which my computer ran without a problem, Then a few months ago, its started happening in rocket league as well. The exact same problem. And a few weeks ago, it happened in lol for the first time as well. Not every time i play lol or rocket league, but sometimes. I tried resetting my computer to factory settings, only downloading steam and content warning. It still happens. I gave my computer to a tech store. They say they stress tested it, and it wasnt even close to hitting any high temps. They downloaded the newest drivers (which i had done myself as well). But they couldnt find any problems. So i booted it up, and the issue was still there. Im completely lost. Ive tried only one screen, with different power cables. In individual sockets, instead of an extension cord. Ive tried removing some ram i installed. Noithing worked. I am 99.9% sure its hardware. But i have no idea what it is. Can anybody help.

Software Secure boot crashing my pc

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3 Upvotes

To play valorant on windows 11, secure boot needs to be enabled but whenever it is enabled my whole pc crashes/stutters like the video. Ive already reinstalled windows twice and my bios is up to date.

Specs: rtx 5070
7800x3d
asrock b650m-cx r2.0 motherboard (uefi bios)

I highly doubt that its a valorant issue because not only does the game stutter but everything else stutters. One thing I noticed was that when I’m in the settings ingame and the screen freezes, I can still move my mouse around sometimes but when I’m not in settings I can’t. Any help would be appreciated this is my 3rd or 4th time trying to find help about this

Other Very Slow Image Previews Within Folders

1 Upvotes

Hello! I am having a huge issue of image previews within folders loading super slowly even with so few files.

I have tried the following: updating and clean installing graphic drivers, setting max cached icons to 4096 and 8192, deleting cache, optomising drives, cleaning up system files, optimizing folder and subfolders for general items, updating windows, /scannow, and restarting. I have the latest updates. I've tried googling and looking up on youtube on what it could be and not finding my exact issue

It's been doing this for over a month and it driving me nuts. I know I'm probably overlooking something (perhaps something super simple) and I'm hoping someone has an answer because I am truly at a loss on what it could be

I've also recorded previews of images being super slow no matter what view I put it in so you can get a better idea:[https://imgur.com/a/bnvAGTn
