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...

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.
