    I'm scared that it's gonna explode... it's working perfectly though! There was just a bit of air in the battery. I'm just concerned

    Is it possible to intentionally freeze and unfreeze your webcam during a conference call?

    Posted: 03 Apr 2019 07:59 AM PDT

    My work has a lot of conference call meetings that I attend remotely. I was wondering if there is any way to intentionally freeze a laptop webcam for a few minutes during a conference call so that i could occasionally take short breaks to either go to the bathroom or make coffee etc. without anyone realizing. (I use a Surface book 2 as my laptop, and the conference call software is "Zoom")

    Applications Only Show in the Taskbar of my computer!

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 02:22 AM PDT

    For starters, I use an Acer Predator 15 with an Intel Core i7, 16GB Ram and a 970M graphics card (let me know if you require any further info).

    The laptop is not that old (2 and a half years) and has no performance issues when it comes to running the applications that actually open. I bought it as a used laptop from a friend who was not facing this issue before selling it to me.

    Some apps show up in the taskbar, I can hear the music, and the program is supposedly running according to Task Manager. I have tried looking for various solutions, including reinstalling the applications, restarting the laptop, I even factory reset it. Nothing has helped so far. The graphics card driver is up to date and based on troubleshooting there are no present issues.

    The only thing that has temporarily helped was plugging my laptop to an external monitor via HDMI which caused the application to show up on the second screen and then switching back to the primary screen.

    Please help if you have any clue of a possible solution .

    Applications that aren't working

    -Blender

    -Risk of Rain 2

    -Epic Games Launcher

    -Battlerite

    Applications that are working

    -Overwatch

    -Discord

    -Steam

    OBS black screen (NVIDIA)

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 02:20 AM PDT

    I get a black screen when I try to use OBS, from watching fixes for it I tried to go to the 3d-settings on NVIDIA and click on the OBS program in the program settings, but it isn't on the list. Is this the reason why I can't get it to work?

    Upgrade HDD

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 01:52 AM PDT

    Hello, I have a HDD (2TB) that is starting to have bad sectors so I bought a new one as an upgrade (4TB).

    My OS (Win10) is installed on my SSD, but I have a folder called Program Files 2 on my first HDD since my SSD is rather small (120GB).

    I have tried following the top google result which advises me to use a program called EaseUS Todo Backup Free. But when I follow this tutorial the program errors out. Screenshot

    So my question is the following, can't I just copy all my directories from one drive to another and change the drive letter to the one of the original HDD, or would that not work?

    Any better suggestions?

    Thanks in advance!

    Question considering SATA ports on HDD

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:58 AM PDT

    Hello,
    I wanted to ask about this for a while now. I have SSD and HDD, both with OS installed and configured correctly. Now, from what i understand, the 15-pin connector is for power and the smaller one is for data. Now, i wanted to ask this - if the HDD is connected to power, but doesnt have data connector plugged in, will it "spin" or run, or will it stay off? Im asking because right now, every time i want to swap them i unplug both connectors and I wanted to know if i can just leave the power one since its hard to plug it back afterwards (i dont want any of them to have any connection to each other - i want them to be like "different machines"). Thanks in advance for answer!

    External HDD not working

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:56 AM PDT

    My Seagate Backup Plus 2TB has stopped working. When I connect it to my PC (Win10) it shows up on the device manager under Disk drives as Seagate Slim SCSI Disk Device. But under events it says device not migrated. The light doesn't show up and it doesn't work on a Mac either. Please Help....

    Should I open it and change the sata to usb board? I have extra one that I took out from another drive which I'm using now as an internal one... but that will void my warranty.

    Event Log:

    Device SCSI\Disk&Ven_Seagate&Prod_Slim\000000 was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match.

    Last Device Instance Id: USBSTOR\Disk&Ven&Prod_FCR-HS3______-0&Rev_1.00\08735342203031&0 Class Guid: {4d36e967-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318} Location Path: Migration Rank: 0xF000FC00FFFFF120 Present: false Status: 0xC0000719

    Can someone please explain to me what these numbers mean and whether my laptop is working properly or not?

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:51 AM PDT

    So I have a laptop with 8 GB ram, 2.3 GHz CPU ( i7) and NVIDIA GFORCE 940mx.

    Thing is, it's running horribly as of late. It keeps crashing and takes ages to launch.

    I can't run games without lagging, even old games ( which I mostly try to play because laptops aren't good for this stuff).

    here's the info I got from task manager when running dark souls 3 on lowest settings possible : https://imgur.com/a/5RgrqZB

    are these numbers an indication or malfunction? IF so, what could be the issue ?

    My AMD drivers stopped working. Need help.

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:51 AM PDT

    I've updated my Radeon Software to 19.4.1 and both adapters (display and graphics) have stopped working. Sometimes I can get the graphics adapter to work by disabling/enabling it, but when I try the same with display both adapters stop working. I've tried many online solutions and not sure where to go anymore. I'm running Win10 in a HP Pavilion - 15-cd005la.

    New PC SSD/start up issue

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:50 AM PDT

    Hi guys.

    So I finished building my new PC last night, everything is working fine apart from 2 small issues that I'm a bit lost with.

    First of all, this:

    https://imgur.com/a/qaBudFL (it's only got so many lines as I got frustrated and spammed my keyboard)

    The confusing thing about this is that I figured it was an issue with boot priority, as I have 3 HDDS connected (2 ssd and 1 normal). So I went into my BIOS settings and made sure that the SSD with my OS on was the first boot priority and that seemed to fix it..... until I reset the PC.

    This basically comes up every time, although if I load up into the bios my primary SSD is still the top boot priority so it's not like the settings are resetting. Doing this makes the PC start up and work absolutely fine? The only thing I can think is that its linked to issue no 2 which is...

    New SSD isn't being recognised by BIOS or pc in general.

    I've tried going into device manager and seeing if the drive hasn't been allocated a letter, but it's not in there at all. My 2 old hdds are recognised and work fine.

    I figured it could just be the SATA port, so I changed them around and still nothing. I'm going to try a new SATA cable this evening as it could be that but does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hope this all makes sense, let me know if you need more information.

    Sound Issues

    Posted: 03 Apr 2019 09:35 PM PDT

    Hi guys, my OnePlus 6 is having an issue with its sound. The speakers work fine, but there's no sound coming out of it when i'm playing media from an app like youtube and spotify. When headphones are plugged in it works perfectly fine though. Any fixes for this? If it helps, whenever i go into the "media output" settings on my phone, it's stuck on "headset". Does that mean anything?

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:29 AM PDT

    I recently logged out of my Snapchat account because my friend needed to check their Snapchat. After getting my phone back and trying to login I realised that I don't know my password and my old phone number is attached to the account, If I have an email attached I can't find it. I texted the number hoping for a nice person to be on the other side hoping to help me out but I never got a reply. What can I do?

    Bluetooth headphones interfere with WIFI when playing music

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:19 AM PDT

    So the problem is:

    All of this worked 3 days ago but suddenly nothing works anymore. I can't find anything on the web regarding this and I am a bit clueless at the moment.

    Experienced Bug:

    I get WIFI issues when playing music / videos on my mac that is connected to my Bose QC 35. There is no problem when they are just connected. The problem starts as soon as I start a song/video. Then suddenly ( it's like I lost my WIFI connection. (I tried playing music without the headphones connected as well and it works)

    More technical details: Bose QC 35 Firmware latest as today (2019-04-04) => Should be 2.5.5 Mac book pro Mojave 10.14.1

    The error happened from one day to another. There was no update or anything in between the WIFI is working while I am listening to music and the WIFI is not working when playing music on the headphones.

    Did anyone of you experience this in the past already or can help me out somehow?

    Thank you in advance!

    I'm clueless.

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:07 AM PDT

    I have a pretty severe issue.

    A while back (~1 month ago) My laptop started to function poorly. If you as much as bumped into the table it's sitting on, it'd crash showing a BSOD.

    Eventually (after I backed up all the data), it started to get worse (shaking the PC slightly would cause the screen to freak and glitch out).

    Now, it boots past the initial windows logo, then it BSOD's showing the error:

    SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

    What failed: Ntfs.sys

    I have peeked inside, but nothing is loose or dislodged.

    It's also worth mentioning that I've tried to boot from a USB using Microsoft's Media creation tool, but that didn't work. It'd just go back to BSOD. (Boot order is correct)

    I'm clueless as to wtf is going on, or how to fix it.

    Can anyone help?

    Working on organizing data in excel

    Posted: 04 Apr 2019 03:02 AM PDT

    Hello, I am posting this to a few subreddits as it is quite urgent. I need some help with how to set up excel to organize data that was input into a table from a userform, the file is attached. Sheets 1 & 3 are the ones I am using. I manually entered in a bit of info on sheet 3 as an example.

    https://1drv.ms/x/s!AnNGGEq48PUPgxr5SvR7W94A9VIJ

    The months along the top change depending on the month entered on the first page. I need to take the data entered on the first sheet and organize it into its revenue type. However, I have no idea how to have a macro add the row, then organize the data into it.

    My second question involve the calculation that needs to be done. The calculation is done from the install date to the cutoff date. Some months will be full, some won't. It's the number of mats x rental rate x the number of days. Any help would be most appreciated!!!

    Windows 10, Received Virus but cannot reset PC

    Posted: 03 Apr 2019 08:54 PM PDT

    Hello,

    I recently got a virus that hijacked my browser. I finally downloaded an antivirus (malware bytes) and got rid of it. But during that time I wanted to just reset my PC but it seems that I can't. The button to reset the PC seems to be unresponsive, it doesn't do anything after I click on it. I tried using CMD to force reset, I have tried to hold down shift, while restarting the PC and nothing has worked. I'm not too tech savvy so I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

    Neighbors stealing WiFi

    Posted: 03 Apr 2019 11:43 AM PDT

    For a bit of exposition, my ISP implemented a usage limit (1Tb) last year which has caused more vigilance to the usage on my part. Most days I average around 20-40gb and there have been a few days every month that the number shoots up to 90 or 100gb for a single day, most are days I spend no time at home. I've been using a MAC address filter and they've managed to get around that. Any help is appreciated.
