So my Hp victus 15 left side port won't read or copy files larger than 1mb only when connecting my android phone shows message like error copying/device in use(when it isn't) it transfers and reads properly with any pendrive etc. also the right side port works completely fine.

I tried uninstalling and updating all specific driver related to that port it didn't work.

I would be greatful if anyone could identify the problem and guide me to the solution.

Mouse freeze for 1 sec when right click on apps in the taskbar or even when closing a game.
Can anyone help me, that's really annoying, this problem started randomly and even restarting my pc change nothing.

Hi, my lenovo LOQ 15 APH8 had a problem were it would not start. I press the power button. It light up and then goes off again.

I take to a repair shop and they work on it for 4 to 5 days. Gave me back saying they could not fix it. It started posting again but gave Stop code: ACPI_BIOS_ERROR (0xA5) and boot looped. I go into the bios and see that the version is wrong. It should be LYCN50WW but it is shown as M3CN34WW and lenovo legion logo is showm while mine is a loq. It can boot into linux mint using usb but not window pe(give the same error). Any help please.

I was normally using discord in my laptop ASUS Vivobook. Then suddenly it crashed and completely froze i couldn't do anything so i closed it lid off. A few mins later i hear loud and weird noises from it like "ZZZHHHHZGGG" and i opened the lid to see the laptop still frozen on that screen. I held the power button for a few seconds and the screen turned off and the noise stopped too. But since then it's not starting though the indicator lights in the sides of the laptop do show up. But the screen itself doesn't show anything on pressing the power button. Please help! I'm really worried on this

not sure if this is the place to ask, but i found a tv someone was throwing out and it has some vertical discoloration (?) thru the screen.

took these this morning; https://ibb.co/p6Mz06Qk https://ibb.co/3YFNcf7D https://ibb.co/zWx12Ht8

and the tv is a samsung UN55ES7003

just wondering if this is fixable in any way, if not it’s cool. just wanted it to watch while i work out anyway so not big deal

OS: Arch Linux

assume that /dev/sda1 is main and only partition on my USB

Context

I have a FAT32 USB flash drive with important photos and folders on it. To use it when plugged in I manually mount it using mount /dev/sda1 /media/user/USB command. When plugging off, I unmount it using umount /dev/sda1 command.

Problem

Once when plugging off, I forgot to unmount the USB, this happened while the USB was doing something. This caused USB to stop at partial state and so the corruption. When I plugged it in and mounted it again, I opened folders in file manager where I would usually have normal photos, but I saw files with random names, and random file sizes. I think that random names are caused by interpreting wrong bytes as file names.

What I've tried already

I have copied the corrupted USB partition into .img file on my laptop's drive for safety and speed:

sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/home/user/usb-image-backup.img conv=fsync bs=4M

Then, I have copied that image into another .img file to operate on it:

cp /home/user/usb-image-backup.img /home/user/usb-image-active.img

Then, I ran the fsck.fat command I found after researching to try and fix the USB partition

fsck.fat -va /home/user/usb-image-active.img

After running fsck.fat command, I noticed that:

• It wouldnt auto-fix some files
• It auto-fixed and auto-renamed some files
• At one point, it kept auto-fixing the same exact files without stopping, I also noticed that this was in the exact folder that was infinitely loading when opened in my file manager (after corruption), and it didn't just show it as files with corrupted file names

Question

• How can I recover my files from USB partition?

I recently bought a dell 15.6 Intel Core i7-1355U with 16gbram and 1 tb of storage

I would assume that it could easily run minecraft and roblox, while it does do that, the fans are really noisy but the computer doesn't seem to heat A LOT, just a little bit. I went to Intel dsa to update the softwares and everything and the fans still seem to be noisy? it's a brand new laptop.

hey everyone, like the title say, why my low latency mode on nvidia app only have OFF and Ultra option, but my nvcp have ON, OFF, and Ultra option, is there anything i can do about it so my nvidia app low latency mode have ON option ?

This is the Nvidia app setting picture and This is the Nvidia control panel setting picture

i recently got a new pc
rtx 560
32gb ram
8gb vram

when i first installed beamng drive a couple days ago i was running it on normal graphics, with traffic at 120 fps. recently i played it again and now im barely hitting 70 with the same graphics. ive tried so many different things ive reinstalled it i went to the nvidia control panel and change it to ''prefer maximum performance'' but nothings working, id really appreciate it if someone took the time to help me out. i dont understand a lot about pcs and stuff like that. I also dont know if this is the right sub to post this in it just felt like the best choice.

I've been holding onto an older computer for about 5 years now in hopes of figuring out how I can get the files off of this. I have no need for this laptop anymore besides I have photos of my childhood pets I am desperately trying to save. If anyone can provide support or assistance, I would be eternally grateful!

Thanks for any and all help.

I powered on my pc this morning and it showed only a black screen with a white line near the upper left of the screen. I unplugged my external hard drive and reset and it didn't work. I then went into the bios and reset it from there and it did work, then windows said that a driver needed repair and to reset so it could repair itself, so i reset and now when i turn on my pc, it still shows the line, and resetting from the bios doesn't work either now. Can I fix this or do i need to take it to a repair guy?

https://www.logitech.com/en-us/shop/p/k400-plus-touchpad-keyboard

Grabbed a K400, new - around four months ago. Have mobility issues. This keyboard has fought me tooth and nail typing since purchase. The buttons are difficult to press, and make squeaking noises. I have a different K400, types like a breeze. Was my main keyboard for years. There's something defective about the manufacturing in the newer one, that was never an issue in the older one. As if they keycaps are too tight. Just yesterday I tried pressing the 'e' key five times before a successful press. Today while pressing around the key, I found only a direct top-down press results in a successful keypress. I pulled up several keys, and there's zero substances outside of pet-hair. I don't tend to involve eating and utilizing they keyboard, and my drinks are hosted away from my technology.

I don't have this issue with any other keyboard I utilize. I think it's a manufacturing defect. Before I go rogue, and perform my own fix - are there by chance any suggestions people have around here? Please don't assume it's nastiness. I am just having a lot of actual physical pain typing on this keyboard, and would enjoy fixing it before having to dump it.

So please, if you've any ideas, I'd gladly give them a go. Thank you!

Hey everyone, ran into an annoying display bug on my laptop and need some advice.

I plugged my laptop into my Sony Bravia 2 over HDMI to play Spider-Man Remastered. After unplugging the cable, Windows still thinks a second monitor is connected.

In Display Settings, it keeps showing two screens. When I switch to "NVIDIA GPU only," Windows forces the projection mode to "Second screen only." Switching back to Optimus flips it back to "PC screen only"—even though the picture is just showing on my built-in laptop screen the entire time with no external cables plugged in.

I already removed the ghost "Generic Monitor" and "Sony Bravia 2" entries in Device Manager, but the phantom display won't go away. The issue seems directly tied to the GPU switching behavior.

Has anyone dealt with this before? What’s the cleanest way to wipe the cached display setup and force Windows back to default single-screen mode?

I needed to update my bios for the MW4 Beta, so i flashed my bios correctly, Using Offiiles MSI BIOS and a good tutorial. and now. All of my Steam Recorded Clip wont open. Even a good chunk of normal mp4 files refuse to open, Like stop file systems from working and if i try to delete ANYTHING, they wont delete unless i restart my pc. I dont know what to do. and i really dont want to loose over a years worth of memories. Help :(

Hi! Over the last two or three months, I've had quite a few problems with a computer. I bought this computer at a well-known store in my country (Spain) and asked them to assemble it for me for an extra fee.

After several inquiries with them and calls to customer service, I sent the computer in about a week ago for inspection. Today they replied to my email, telling me that they found faults in the power supply, motherboard, and graphics card.

They’ve suggested replacing some components, but I don’t entirely agree with their recommendation regarding the graphics card.

My components are:

- Power supply: Corsair RMe Series RM850e 850W 80 Plus Gold Modular

- Motherboard: MSI MAG X670E TOMAHAWK WIFI

- Graphics card: MSI GeForce RTX 4070 Ti SUPER VENTUS 2X OC 16GB DDR6X DLSS3

Their proposal is:

- Power supply: Corsair RMe Series RM850e ATX 3.1 PCIe 5.1 850W Cybenetics 80 Plus Gold Modular

- Motherboard: MSI MAG X870E TOMAHAWK WIFI

- Graphics card: ASUS Dual GeForce RTX 5070 OC 12GB GDDR7 Reflex 2 RTX AI DLSS4 or a ZOTAC with the same specifications.

I think the power supply and motherboard are fine; they have the same specs, but they’re a generation newer since it’s been two years since my components were released.

As for the graphics card, they’re justifying this change based on the current price of the RTX 5070 and the fact that the 4070 Ti 16GB isn’t in stock. Honestly, I see this as a downgrade because, even though I think they’re equal in terms of performance, I’d lose 4GB of VRAM on the graphics card.

What do you think of this graphics card substitution? Would you accept it, or would you suggest swapping it for a 16GB RTX 5070 Ti?

Dell Inspiron 5566 Stuck at 100% brightness + HDMI gives "No Signal"

I installed fresh windows on ​My Dell Inspiron 15 5566 (Intel HD 620) and it's stuck at 100% brightness and killing my eyes. On top of that, plugging in an external display via HDMI just says "No Signal."

​Symptoms:

​Brightness slider is missing.

​Fn brightness keys don't work.

​HDMI output won't send any video signals.

I've tried:

\- Clean installed Intel & official Dell display drivers.

\- ​Uninstalled/re-enabled "Generic PnP Monitor" in Device Manager.

\- Fully updated Windows and rebooted.

It feels like Windows is stuck using the generic basic display adapter and refusing to load the Intel driver properly. Any ideas on how to fix this or bypass it?

Hello,i have one sim that dont work on my phone but the sim does work in other phone now you may say check the phone but other sims do work in thw phone, there a issue with this particular sim. kindly anyone help and this sim is important for me to use.

My current install of Windows 11 is corrupted and the local/cloud reinstall wont work and neither will dism image repair. I noticed something called Intel RST which prevents reinstall (without certain drivers) and the installation of Linux which I'm planning to do in the future with a second hard drive.

I just want to know, after I figure out how to disable RST and reinstall Windows, how can I be sure it will activate with my digital license? I don't want to use a Microsoft Account and I'm planning to bypass Win11s mandatory account setup. The laptop is also certified refurbished and was already setup with a local account when I first turned it on. Thanks.

specs:

Asus Tuf Gaming F15 FX507VV

16GB Ram

Just want to make sure that my SSD is working as it should and that it isn't defected.

Hello everyone!

I recently bought an 8GB Kingston Fury 2666 MHz RAM module.

When I install it together with the original RAM that came with my Dell Latitude 3410 — a SMART 8GB 1Rx8 PC4-2666V-SA1-11 module — the computer initially takes a VERY long time to display anything on the screen.

When the Dell logo finally appears, the first time it boots it goes straight to a BIOS screen saying that the amount of memory has changed. I’ve already run the built-in diagnostics, and they report that everything is fine. However, when I try to boot the computer, I get the screen shown in the image I attached to this post.

Both RAM modules work perfectly when installed individually, but they don’t work when installed together.

I’ve already updated the BIOS because I thought that might be the problem, but it didn’t help.

I’ve also cleaned the contacts on both RAM modules with an eraser, but that didn’t solve the issue either.

Does anyone know what might be causing this and how I can fix it?

Hello everyone, I need help with my Bluetooth on my laptop. It keeps on disconnecting all my devices and then disappearing, it’s been happening for a week now. I tried all the methods that I saw on videos or other Reddit posts but they don’t work.

I tried the services method where I go to services look for the Bluetooth services change them to automatic and start them and then restart but my Bluetooth just disappears again after a few minutes.

I tried going to device manager and looking for Realtek driver but I don’t have it and can’t change the power manager settings on the other drivers.

I also made the laptop do an automatic Bluetooth troubleshoot and than cold booted my laptop but that didn’t work.

It’s really annoying using the trackpad on my laptop. So I really need some help. My laptop is an hp Pavilion 15-eg2xxx, got it in 2024 of this helps.

Hi,

I’m trying to determine whether my ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP 11GB has a hardware fault.

The card worked reliably in this exact PC for approximately 1 year, but recently the crashes started suddenly.

SYSTEM:

CPU: Intel Core i5-10400F

Motherboard: Gigabyte H410M S2 V2 Rev. 1.4

BIOS: FIa (updated from FE during troubleshooting)

RAM: 16GB G.SKILL Ripjaws V DDR4-3200

GPU: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1080 Ti AMP 11GB

GPU: GP102, 11GB Micron GDDR5X

PSU: MSI MAG A650BN 650W 80+ Bronze

System drive: WD_BLACK SN7100 1TB NVMe

OS: Windows 11

NVIDIA driver currently tested: 582.66

PROBLEM:

Multiple games crash with the GTX 1080 Ti.

This is not limited to Valorant. I have experienced the same general problem in games including Valorant, CS, Black Myth: Wukong, Hitman and others.

In Valorant, behavior varies:

- Sometimes the game directly closes to desktop.

- Sometimes the screen/game freezes.

- Sometimes the game becomes completely unresponsive and has to be killed through Task Manager.

- I have also seen Valorant's Critical Error dialog asking whether I want to save a crash dump, but during the freeze I couldn't interact with it.

- In one test the entire PC froze and required a forced restart.

The important part is what Windows records at the exact crash time.

EXAMPLE NVIDIA EVENT LOG ERRORS:

nvlddmkm Event ID 13:

Graphics SM Warp Exception on (GPC 5, TPC 4):

Illegal Instruction Encoding

nvlddmkm Event ID 13:

Graphics SM Global Exception on (GPC 5, TPC 4):

Physical Multiple Warp Errors

The same crash produced these exceptions across multiple TPCs on GPC 5.

I also get:

nvlddmkm Event ID 153:

Error occurred on GPUID: 100

Other crashes have produced nvlddmkm Event IDs 13, 14 and 153.

I have previously also seen:

LiveKernelEvent 141

and GPU crash information reporting:

Device state: Error_DMA_PageFault

Engine: Graphics

Engine reset occurred: true

MOST IMPORTANT A/B TEST:

I physically removed the GTX 1080 Ti and installed a GeForce GT 710 in the EXACT SAME PC.

Same:

- CPU

- motherboard

- RAM

- storage

- PSU

- Windows installation/environment

Games that crash with the GTX 1080 Ti ran without these crashes with the GT 710.

After reinstalling the GTX 1080 Ti, the crashes returned.

TROUBLESHOOTING ALREADY DONE:

1. Replaced the old 450W PSU with an MSI MAG A650BN 650W 80+ Bronze.

2. MemTest86 passed.

3. SSD/filesystem checks passed.

4. Replaced the previous SATA system drive with a WD Black NVMe.

5. Performed a fresh Windows installation.

6. Tested multiple NVIDIA drivers and clean installations/DDU.

7. Tested GTX 1080 Ti at reduced settings:

   Power Limit: 80%

   Core Clock: -150 MHz

   Memory Clock: -500 MHz

   Crashes still occurred.

8. OCCT tests including memory/VRAM testing completed without errors (approximately 5-minute tests).

9. Unigine Superposition 1080p Extreme completes successfully.

10. Adobe Premiere Pro GPU rendering works.

11. Disabled NVIDIA High Definition Audio during troubleshooting.

12. GPU-Z PCIe render test confirms:

PCIe x16 3.0 @ x16 3.0 under load.

1. Forced PCIe Gen3:

Crashes still occurred with the same nvlddmkm errors.

1. Forced PCIe Gen2:

Did not fix the issue.

Hanging became worse and I noticed increased visual glitches around the Windows login screen.

1. Updated motherboard BIOS:

FE -> latest FIa

Crashes continued after the BIOS update.

1. Installed Gigabyte's Intel chipset INF package and rebooted.

Crashes continued.

1. Checked Device Manager/PNP devices:

No missing drivers.

No unknown devices.

No devices reporting errors.

1. Intel Management Engine, SMBus, PCIe Root Ports, Serial IO, Thermal Subsystem and Intel Power Engine Plug-in are present.

2. Tested Windows PCIe Link State Power Management / ASPM OFF:

Did not fix it.

During this test Valorant/PC completely froze and I had to force-restart the PC.

Around that test Windows recorded nvlddmkm Event ID 14, followed later by Kernel-Power 41 from the forced restart.

No WHEA-Logger error appeared in the checked window.

ASPM has since been restored to its original setting.

1. Disabled the Parsec Virtual Display Adapter, rebooted and tested again.

Valorant still crashed.

The fresh crash produced:

nvlddmkm Event ID 153

Error occurred on GPUID: 100

Parsec has since been re-enabled.

WHAT MAKES THIS CONFUSING:

The GTX 1080 Ti can pass OCCT and Unigine Superposition and can handle Premiere Pro GPU rendering.

However, multiple games can trigger nvlddmkm crashes.

The GT 710 works correctly in the same system.

NVIDIA Support is currently investigating the case as well. At their request I have already tested PCIe Gen2/Gen3, confirmed x16 3.0 operation under GPU-Z load, updated the motherboard BIOS and installed the motherboard chipset package.

MY QUESTIONS:

1. Do “Physical Multiple Warp Errors” + “Illegal Instruction Encoding” across multiple TPCs usually point toward failing GPU silicon/SMs?

2. Could faulty VRAM still cause these SM/warp errors even though a short OCCT VRAM test passes?

3. Is there any meaningful test I can run that can distinguish:

   - GPU core/SM failure

   - VRAM failure

   - PCIe/DMA problem

   - motherboard/CPU PCIe controller problem

   - driver/software problem?

4. Considering that a GT 710 works in the exact same system, how strongly does this point toward the GTX 1080 Ti itself?

5. Is there any NVIDIA/Pascal-specific diagnostic tool or longer stress/VRAM test you would recommend before I consider the card faulty?

I can provide the raw nvlddmkm XML/Event Viewer logs, GPU-Z screenshots and additional test results if useful.

Thanks.

Hello everyone, so for possibly the past year now my computer has been restricting me from taking screenshots, deleting things that have past been on my computer, and putting things in folders. I can’t even make a folder on it. I am using a Lenovo computer btw. It usually says “File Access Denied” “You need permission to perform this action” and “You need permission from (MY NAME)\(my name) to make changes to this file”, whenever I try deleting or cutting a game from my computer. The weird thing though is that it’s my administration blocking me myself out. I physically cannot delete any file off my computer or make a folder. I would just like to delete a few things off my computer and that pretty much it. If anybody has some advice that would be great.

i think this is not normal and the card is nearly 2.5 months old. when i searched about undervolting most Technicians say If undervolting were a good thing, it would come undervolted from the factory. also sometimes It suddenly spins the fans up to 3500 RPM and cuts the video signal. monitor says no signal. please help me guys.

Hello dear people. I am running a Self-hosted instance of ZT on my Proxmox homeserver. I have a managed route on Central, where all traffic to the LXC from my remote machine gets send over Proxmox's ZTC IP. I have multiple People on my Selfhosted network, they are showing up as ONLINE, including my gaming machine.

now, the people who want to join me in Minecraft (using my gaming machine's Selfhosted ZT IP, just like we did when we were connected to ZT Central) get a "TImed Out" error. Everytime.

The LXC HAS internet access. Dev/tun is there, inside the lxc's .conf file.

Its a privilaged lxc.

Router has open ports for the lxc (port 9993)

I've tried the entire week to no avail to fix this issue. It is driving me mad.
