Whenever I go to any web content, so far, I don't have any sound. Youtube and other websites are silent. And this goes for Chrome, Firefox and Edge. But the interesting thing is that I have audio capacity on other programs like audacity and skype. Any ideas? The problem started the day...

I had given up on Facebook. Someone managed to use its system against me be making multiple request to reset my password. So I eventually decided to live without it. But I begrudgingly found that Facebook can be a useful tool to make contact with people to discuss a variety of technologies...

I solved a problem and I am posting this here so that others, who might have this problem, will have a solution too. I have an HP ENVY 4500 scanner/printer. Eventhough it allows me to print, scanning is a suddenly not possible. On the software Windows, side, when I click to "New Scan", the...

Excellent! Much thanks !! This explains how to back up an image before starting over. This might be a stupid question, but, what is the command to start over? Do I need to just have an ISO of windows 10 pro somewhere to boot from? I imagine if I do not have that lying around, I am going to...

Yes, I am going to "start over". What sort of precautions and back ups do I need to do?

I don't remember the last time I added memory to my motherboard. And I do not know what specifics about my system you need to know in order to give me some advice. Here is the problem in a nut shell. After I installed my memory, I powered on my computer and it would cycle between starting up...

I am going to return what I bought and get something better. Are these better options: This is on Amazon...

I went ahead and took the leap and bought memory. Will this work or should I return it? What do you think? There are lots of reasons why the memory might not work. One reason repeated is that it is the wrong type of memory. I wanted to ask the fourm before I even try. I appreciate any...

Here is the system info of my computer: https://millionthompson.com/images/System_Info.png Here is a spliced-together image of services. Have a look and let me know what you think, please: https://millionthompson.com/images/services.png I have uninstalled realplayer since it seemed to be...

Thank you for the advice. I used realplayer to download videos. Will VLC let me do that?

I have had to start working from home. That work has involved setting up virutal machines and I quickly ran into a memory problem. The way I see it, there are a number of things I can do. The first thing is to look at my task manager and see how many processes and aps I have runnnin gin the...

The Angular lesson I am watching is showing installing from bash (I assume because it is on an apple computer) with the line: npm install -g @angular/cli So, since I am a poor windows user, I have done the same on powershell. and it puts everything on my C drive under AppData\Roaming. So my...

well, faulty cable or not, for now it is working the way I told in my last post. As the saying goes, if it is not broke, don't fix it. I will revisit this thread if things go back to a single monitor again.

Nenu, this post got me thinking that this might be an OS update glitch. So, I gave something a try and it has worked (so far). But I want to keep this thread of discussion open here just in case this is only temporary. Now, let me explain what I did and why. I started to suspect this was a...

I tightened video cable connections on the back of the CPU box and it went back to the dual monitors on reboot. But it did not last and after I stepped away from the computer, I returned and it is back to the broken single monitor desktop. I will swap the monitors next.

I will get the monitor and cable specs soon. In the meantime, is there a way of getting the graphics card model number and GPU Driver version without opening up the CPU case? Is there a command line or some freeware I can run that will dump out all the computer hard drive information in an...

Why would my desktop suddenly stop recognizing my second monitor and how do I fix it? When I start my computer, the BIOS message appears on one monitor in my dual monitor set up. But when the computer login message appears on my windows operating system, it appears only on the other monitor...

I got locked in one of those update loops. You know what I mean, probably. My Windows 10 would start an automatic update, then fail, and then reset itself to a previous version. This would happen all of the time. I eventually decided to back everything up on an external drive and simply...

Remote - R1280T I need help. The remote, Remote - R1280T (denoted as "RC10" on the device) does not seem to work. Is there some sort of set up I need to perform? I even tried replacing the battery. The device is the one displayed on this page...

I am thinking now that you are probably right.

I am trying to extend my desktop to a second monitor. . It was working and suddenly it stopped. . Yes, I know how it is supposed to work with the display settings, but I can not get the operating system to recognize the existence of two monitors. Let me first explain some details because my...
