    [SOLVED] Couple of TPM questions.

    Alright thanks for the extensive help on this topic, I really appreciate you! So that brings this question. So bitlocker and TPM encryption is basically one and the same? I know windows has always had bitlocker as an option, but by this logic, I'm understanding that it's bitlocker that utilizes...

    [SOLVED] Couple of TPM questions.

    As for a reason? I'll be honest. It just looks nicer, I like how they rearranged the OS, new clean system sounds, etc. I played around with it in VMWare and really loved the aesthetic. As for a REAL technical reason? I wish I could say I had one haha

    [SOLVED] Couple of TPM questions.

    Alrighty! For my question you answered up there, the 2nd one, I'm understanding that if I update my bios, my C drive may not be accessible after and may need to be formatted? I read something somewhere that updating a bios while using fTPM changes a security key or something? And if I were to...

So I've got a windows 10 desktop right now and I'm going to "clean" my drive with diskpart and install a fresh Windows 11 install. So my questions: 1) Does my motherboard have a hardware...

    [SOLVED] Gigabit Powerline Adapters?

    Alright, here's another off the wall idea. I'm using a laptop in this case that has an old wifi card that only supports 2.4Ghz..... Are laptop wifi cards all proprietary? Could I in theory change the wifi card to something better that can support my 5Ghz band?

    [SOLVED] Gigabit Powerline Adapters?

    Alright SHOOT. I have some MoCa adapters lying around not being used, but I was trying to get a hardwired connection across the same room lol so that doesn't work. HMM...... Last resort? A LOOOOONG ethernet cable maybe. Dirty fix but sure fire. 👀

    [SOLVED] Gigabit Powerline Adapters?

    Got a quick question before I spend any money. I have gigabit internet and it's insanely fast, but I was wondering if there's any powerline adapters that IN THE REAL WORLD can actually carry full gigabit? Have powerline adapters advanced enough to see 900 - 1000 mbps over powerlines? Thanks guys!

    [SOLVED] Aesthetic Case With 5.25" Drive Bay?

    [SOLVED] Aesthetic Case With 5.25" Drive Bay?

    Hmm.... Don't wanna spend too too much, that price isn't bad though. It's a possibility. You've probably seen those nice ones with a glass front panel? I wish someone made something similar but with a drive bay built into the glass! One could dream I suppose lol

    [SOLVED] Aesthetic Case With 5.25" Drive Bay?

    I'm looking for a good mid tower case that's mostly see through, preferably glass, but has at least ONE spot for a DVD drive! Seems like all flashy cases don't support a disc drive. My current PC has lots of RGB in it but my case hardly shows it, and I'm firm on keeping my DVD drive, I use it a...

    [SOLVED] Asus RT-N66U with gigabit internet?

    So I just recently upgraded my internet to gigabit. My current router is an Asus RT-N66U and was wondering if this router is even up to the task? It's rated for 900mbps (which is good enough for me honestly), but do you think it can even achieve this? Side note, if wireless can't, are the...

    [SOLVED] USB WiFi adapter limited by USB 2.0?

    Alright cool thanks! Yeah I do expect the wireless drop off to be a factor, his current built in WiFi adapter is getting 15mbps and only supports 2.4Ghz, so it's an upgrade even still lol Thanks!
