Hey everyone, I have a Dell Inspiron laptop, and I'm trying to connect it to an ASUS VP249QGR monitor. Windows detects the monitor just fine, and I can set it to extend or duplicate the display, but the external monitor stays black/blank no matter what I do. I've matched the resolutions to...

Hey everyone, I’ve got a dual monitor setup, and it was working perfectly fine until this morning. Now, Windows 10 isn’t detecting my second monitor at all. I’ve tried restarting, reconnecting the cables, and even reinstalling the graphics drivers, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas on what...

Hey everyone, So, I built a new PC a few months ago. Initially, everything seemed fine, but I’ve been running into some annoying issues. While gaming or streaming, my system sometimes starts to lag and then completely crashes, sending me straight to the BIOS. I decided to check the Windows Log...

Hey everyone,I recently got a new PC with a Ryzen 9 5900X, RTX 3070, 1TB NVMe SSD, 32GB RAM at 3200MHz, and an ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming motherboard.

Hey everyone, I’m having a weird issue with my laptop. I installed an 80GB mSATA SSD to use just as a boot drive. Everything seemed fine during the install—the BIOS shows it as 80GB. But once I boot up to Windows, it only shows the SSD as 10GB, and I can’t extend the volume or anything. Anyone...

I can't get any sound from my PC. I checked the volume levels, and everything seems fine. I even tried different speakers and headphones, but still no sound. This happened after a Windows update, so I wonder if that’s related.

Recently, my PC started taking significantly longer to boot up. It used to take just seconds to get to the Windows login screen, but now it takes a few minutes. This slowdown happened suddenly. Despite this, the PC runs fine once it's fully started. I ran a check on my drives with the "wmic...
