When tested Samsung EVO 850 emits whirring and low-pitched noises akin to those that hard drives make. Noise doesn't come out of speakers but from within laptop's chassis. I didn't have this problem with other SSDs.

auntjemima The kind of response that person gave me is the reason I prefer asking questions on ol' traditional forums than on social media. Not only because forums are less tolerant of clutter made by responses with no substance but because they are better organized and moderated. Sad seeing...

pendragon1 Is this what the forum is to you? An outlet of passive aggressive emotions? Have you forgot how it is to socialize?

Hello. Need to troubleshoot something. Looking for a software to detect any activity from keyboard and mouse when PC is idle. Anyone knows what software can do the job?

Then how am I supposed to check cable for defects? As I said in the beginning, the multimeter gives proper and stable voltage readings.

24-pin PSU cable. Will multimeter detect instabilities when cords that are being checked are wiggled?

Which device is that?

travm How would I find the cable was faulty had I not powered on my system? I should have done that in BIOS though at least.

UPDATE: The latter issue had to do with 24-pin motherboard connector's area before it meets with its plug. I tried to wiggle the plug and slightly pushed down on top wires. Every time I did that, the PC restarted as it would break contacts of these wires. I am not in US/UK or EU where and we...

Other websites too but it's not isolated to specific websites and extensions enabled as I have found out. I had 3 windows opened where 1st had 50 tabs, second had 29 tabs and third had 27 tabs opened. Closed the browser, resumed 3 windows with tabs, accessed problematic websites and they have no...

Hello. Sometimes there are websites that have it's structure distorted, elements missing and blinking. Incognito mode, Guest profile and Microsoft Edge have no issues whatsoever. Here's a reproduction of issue: https://va.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_rdaw0jfZDf1zckcyx_720.mp4 I have disabled all 6...

Most of the time I get mixed results. It's not the file that I am concerned about that I have excluded from scan and ran but a process it can create, assuming file was "poisoned" on the server without developer's knowledge.

Kiriakos-GR Hello. Are you in IT sector or own private IT business? Why do you use Accsmart v2.0 from 2008? Microsys has Smarter Battery 7.1 software now: https://www.microsys.ro/download.htm How did you arrive at 25% wear level for new laptop battery? Did it wear down from 5500mWh cell to...

Making a new folder and moving there files is not always an option. I also tried excluding folder from scanning but it seems that eventually Windows starts peeking there. At least that's what happened with files that I excluded. Why is it not consistent with my rules? So should I exclude...

They to lump all false positives together even if they are false positives just to make sure people don't crack Microsoft Office?

pendragon1 Some of changes Microsoft makes do not make sense. Why would they remove this feature? Did they receive feedback that manually (accidentally?) arranging files/folders hurts user experience?

I can't find Auto Arrange feature when right-clicking in a folder. I used to see it some time ago and suspect Windows update did something but t his article does not mention anything about the change...

I have a legit tool that Windows Defender identifies as "Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A" and it happens with other legit files. Some are identified as PUA. This Reddit commenter says that there is no need to worry as long as Windows Defender detects file. When it detects process is when there is case one...

Hi, Is it possible to enable function akin to "Send To" but one that would move files instead of copying? I held down SHIFT key thinking it would move files but there are no folders that pop up. Interestingly when I choose "Compressed (zipped) folder" the files are moved into compressed...

modi123 Why pay for Ghostery if there is uBlock for free? Okatis Disabled Javascript for that website and text does not truncate any longer.

Hello, Some websites have text copy truncation by shortening entire paragraph to half of 1 sentence and appending website source at the end. I thought this happens on desktop Windows OS but it also happens on Android OS. Here's an example: “I couldn’t believe I was alive when I first opened...

Mr Evil So even being lossless does not help OGG and FLAC due to software decoding?

Hello, Here's a piece of information I quote from Sandisk Sansa Clip knowledge base: Can you explain how lossless playback consumes more battery life than lossy playback? Isn't in lossy playback more processor power is required to decode compressed audio? Thanks

Lithium grease is think and not good for natural rubber and plastic. But since keyboards are made of ABS or PBT plastic I think it should be good... And for silicon too maybe but not switches due to its high density.

Edimax is in AP mode already. There is no option to disable NAT on either. Disabling DHCP on Edimax solves this and puts me on the same network as Sagemcom (192.168.1.*/**/**) but I no longer can access Edimax's management interface unless I manually configure connection to Edimax as static and...

Hello, Using Windows 10 photo editor to view and edit photos. Cropping mainly. It used to crop fine I think but I noticed that it does not crop adjusted area. Tried changing to predefined crop aspects and they work but I cannot crop custom adjusted area. It saves but photo is not cropped and...

Hi, I am successfully being able to connect from devices connected to Edimax router with devices connected to Sagemcom ISP modem (Bridge Disabled) but not the other way around. I was told it is because they are on a different SUBNETs but wouldn't that render connection from Edimax router (WLAN...

... means?

FrgMstr I read that silicone spray is to be used on larger areas and grease is to be applied to small areas or areas with difficult access. Found Super Lube Multi Purpose Synthetic Lubricant with Syncolon (Teflon) on Amazon. The price is $30 for international me up to my door step. Will consider it.

Nobu I mean website works for me but domain does not have IP address. I checked it here and something strange is going on: https://dnschecker.org/all-dns-records-of-domain.php?query=colasoft.com&rtype=ALL&dns=google I tried pinging in command prompt and was told that host cannot be found. Using...

Shockey No. I wanted to download their software only. Is it possible to not have public DNS?

Hello, I saw a video on YouTube how someone cleaned their membrane keyboard and applied teflon grease which improved functionality of keycaps, making them easier and quieter when pressing. I haven't cleaned my keyboard with a few creaky keycaps yet and I am thinking of doing what the guy did...

Armenius The member said: "I fire those up from time to time to relive my childhood. I've purchased so many copies of those two I can't even count. Pretty sure I have physical media x2, Steam, Origin, and some others." I don't understand why purchase multiples if MP or services are being...

You all probably have large and wide monitors. How do you run old games on them?

And to play every CnC game online you must have license key for each but because they are sold under entire collection there is only 1 license key for all?

Hello, I cannot resolve the following domain to IP and wonder why: https://www.colasoft.com/ Tried PING in command prompt, online hostname to IP tools as well.

Multipack with all CnC games sounds like CnC Ultimate Collection with 17 games. Is this what you meant?

Why the size of output file is noticeably reduced after stripping EXIF data from it. My guess would be that there's an additional step of compression that takes place. Downloading a popular video game, software or mobile application for free and complaining to developer about advertisements or...
