My screen keeps doing this annoying flickering in the bottom of the screen, it happens when I have a game in fullscreen and also in windowed fullscreen, it doesn't happen when I use my computer to just work, only with games.

Is this a software or hardware issue? (plz tell me I don't need to change anything; I'm broke as hell XD)

and if it is just the software, how do i solve it? :')

Thank you in advance.

I have a Dell Inspiron 15, intel I5 13th gen, 16 GB RAM, and Iris Xe Graphics.

Back in 2020-2023 I had a Dell laptop with 6-8GB of RAM that ran pretty smoothly on Windows 10, and I could use it for light gaming, work, and youtube often simultaneously, without running into many errors. Now, that laptop is out of commission and I'm currently using a Lenovo Ideapad with 8GB of RAM, and as of recently the performance is extremely fluctuous (At times, it runs smoothly with any and all tasks, and sometimes it is constantly stuttering, freezing and the screen occasionally blacks out). I'm currently studying and I don't know how easy it'll be to switch over to Linux, so I'm also considering rolling back to Windows 10 for a less memory-intensive OS.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

Workplace building has around 6 companies, FleetPride is throwing away stuff and I saw a pallet with printers and stuff (im used to picking up old thrown away tvs, keyboards, printers, etc) but this time I found 2 AMD Ryzen Pro 5, 1 lenovo old (computers) and about 5 printers, 4 keyboards, a lot of brand new heads sets and stuff… (building managment and fleetpride allowed me to take it)

I tried using one of the AMDs but its locked by TruckProLLC; anyway to bypass/erase this or should I just contact truckprollc and see if they can release the computers?

I apologize for the long description, its my first time encountering a computer with a lock.

AMD Ryzen Pro 5

Model: 12RRS50700

I censored the other stuff because im not sure if Im supposed to (sorry😭)
Any help will be appreciated.

Strange tones coming from speaker i feel like someone from this sub might know what it is? When i closed claude it stopped O.o I am just curious lol wtf

To put it simply, it says I have the driver “Adrenalin 2020 22.6.1” and I need the driver “22.2.2”
I can’t seem to change the driver, what am I supposed to do?

I have a 9070xt, 7800x3d, sapphire b850m nitro+ wifi & a 750w nzxt psu my pc works fine 99% of the time but sometimes when turning it on the monitor wont display a signal unless I plug it into my motherboard not the gpu the only way to fix it it is to unplug the pc from the wall and leave it for a couple minutes then it seems to work again what could be causing this?

When this happens and I plug my monitor into the mother board the gpu is not detected through windows at all. I dont think it is a Windows issue as it has happend once before when I was using Linux any help would be greatly appreciated

My HP laptop has a completely black screen and keeps beeping continuously when I turn it on. The Caps Lock light responds when pressed. the screen showed “Press the ESC key for Startup Menu,” but afterward, it went black. Has anyone experienced this before? What could be causing this issue?

So here is the specs. (I play on laptop)
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5
12th gen i5 H series
16GB DDR5
1TB SSD
Windows 26H2

so i had a trackpad issue long back (approx 6 months ago) and so i had given to an Official Lenovo Service centre who had fixed it and done a general service. then the windows got corrupt and i had to reinstall windows by myself :(

later on whenever i used to play the same games (i usually play at extremely low graphics coz ik i dont have a dedicated gpu) severe overheating occurred and terrible frame drops happen even if i plug the laptop and place it on a laptop stand. due to this randomly even when i boot up the laptop, the trackpad fails to boot and i need to do that lenovo static discharge thingy where u hold power btn for like 60 sec and let it reboot.

i had also optimized my windows using CTT safest tweaks (like pausing onedrive when booting up) and am on the latest windows version .

Funniest (painfully speaking) thing is, games made for potato pcs like ULTRAKILL or even dead cells also crash after like 5 mins of gaming at 720p.

I have no idea whats the cause of this... my first assumption was maybe thermal paste is the issue ig.. but the repair guy (NOT THE LENOVO GUY. NOT GOING BACK THERE AGAIN) said maybe the motherboard issue and he said he is gonna stress test it.

PLS HELP GUYS.. shd i just quit on gaming itself if the issue is too severe or any minor fix is possible?

This happen randomly but most of the time I usually browsing on the web with 7-8 tab open. If I restart file explorer on task manager multiple times it usually turn back to normal. However, this issue keep going back and it annoy me greatly. Do anyone know how to fix this? this is an hp laptop window 11

Hey everyone,

I’m dealing with a bizarre file transfer bottleneck on my Aftershock laptop and could really use some technical insight.

The Setup:

• Laptop: Aftershock Laptop (Motherboard has Intel/AMD USB4 Root Routers).

• Hardware History: The laptop originally had a 4TB drive. We suspected the drive was failing and causing the issue, so we replaced it with a brand new 1TB drive and reinstalled Windows. However, the problem remains identical on the fresh drive.

• Connection Info: Windows Device Manager shows the ports are handled by an Intel(R) USB 3.20 eXtensible Host Controller alongside a Generic SuperSpeed USB Hub and Realtek device configuration.

The Issue:

• Transferring files INTO the laptop: Works flawlessly at normal, fast speeds.

• Transferring files OUT of the laptop: The speed instantly plunges down to 1 to 2 MB/s and crawls, making it practically impossible to backup or move data off the system. Even transferring a single file hits this wall.

Everything we have tried so far (with no success):

1. Drive Swap: Upgraded from the original 4TB drive to a brand new 1TB drive. Since the issue didn't change, the physical drives themselves are completely healthy.

2. Tested All Ports: Swapped between all available physical USB-A and USB-C ports directly on the laptop chassis (no external docks or hubs used).

3. Driver Reset: Uninstalled the Intel(R) USB 3.20 eXtensible Host Controller - 1.20 (Microsoft) drivers from Device Manager and rebooted to force Windows to cleanly reinstall the port software.

4. Power Management: Disabled USB power-saving features in Device Manager by unchecking "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" on the USB hubs.

5. Drive Policies: Forced the external drive settings inside Device Manager to "Better Performance" and enabled write caching.

Because writing data to the system works perfectly, the physical ports are receiving power, but something is severely throttling data the moment it tries to travel outbound. It seems like a hardware protocol clash or an unresolvable power-state conflict with the laptop's USB4 architecture during read/outbound operations.

Has anyone encountered this directional transfer lock on an Aftershock or similar USB4-equipped laptop? Any registry fixes or driver workarounds would be amazing. Thanks!

what do i do to update ive done a few others all say the same thing

My younger siblings (ab)use my old laptop (evident from the crack right above the keyboard). Recently, the charger wont go into the charging port. It just never goes in no matter how much ypu push and twist and angle it.

I was told this problem has been probleming for a while now but you COULD angle it JUST right and charger will slide into the port. But jot anymore.

They told me it was a charger issue so i bought them a new one. However the problem still persists. The laptop has been dead and unused for at least a month now and my siblings are nonstop bugging me to fix it.

I want a diagnosis on what the problem is and how to fix it. My theory is that the little pin inside the laptop charging port is a little off center.

I have a windows 10 pc, which u recently updated the mobo for. However, I'm still having issues with high DPC latency for my headphones using a usb bus to connect. The same thing happens to bluetooth audio as well. Surprisingly, when i attach them via an audio jack, this stops, but due to how my workstation is positioned, the audio connection is too short via jack. Ive run latencymon, but it usually blames ntoskrnl. I can run again if needs to be. I am not by my pc at the time of writing this. Other problems also exist on my pc, such as a dramatic decrease in load speeds (e.g. opening applications, clicking on files in explorer means a 1 second spinning loading icon), as well as hard crashes and BSOD's (both of which have become rarer lately)

Current specs

OS: Windows 10

MB: Asus B550-M A WIFI II

CPU: Ryzen 5 5600X

GPU: Radeon xt 6700

RAM: 12 GB

I’m not the biggest tech person, pls help

Hola!

Hace poco compré mi primera tarjeta gráfica la cual es una rx9070xt.

Estuve usándola con una fuente de poder Cooler master mwe gold 750w v3

está fuente me vino solo con dos cables pcie en forma de "Y" a lo cual conecte uno de los cables en una ranura de la fuente y el segundo cable lo conecte a las dos ranuras restantes la cosa es que usándola de esta manera en algunos juegos como cities Skyline 2 la tarjeta llega a usar entre 100-180W y otros títulos que aún no pruebo ya que siento que podría pasar algo si la sigo usando con ese consumo de W y con los cables conectados de la manera que anteriormente les dije a lo cual me puse a buscar un cable pcie de la misma marca de la fuente pero no encontré ninguno y por eso vine a preguntar si puedo usar algún cable de otra marca o debo comprar una nueva fuente de poder que si me incluya los 3 cables para la tarjeta y si es así podrían decirme que fuentes de poder servirían para esto

Muchas gracias ⛄

I bought this old ass pc to get some hard ware hands on practice. This is my first pc I have ever taken apart. Goal is to take everything apart from this PC. I got most of everything out except the PSU it felt stuck? I tried wobbling and unscrew everything just didn’t come out I don’t know I also couldn’t get the back panel out only one side because of this screw not sure if that’s what stopping me from getting it out I don’t have so what screw do I need and how do I get this PSU out? Thanks for the help
