    [SOLVED] Selling PC, want to install Win10 Pro but PC won't let me

    This been puzzling me for many hours now and I can't find the solution on the net. So maybe someone has an answer? I have this PC that previously had a Windows 10 Home RETAIL license installed on it. It's a custom-built PC. I'm now selling this PC to someone, but I'm installing a Windows 10 Pro...

    [SOLVED] Laptop HDMI won't work at 4K60 after Nvidia update

    In the end, I solved my problem myself. ASUS folks actually sent me an updated driver, but after installing it, the same problem remained. 4K60 didn't work anymore unless I "forced" it by changing refresh rate to something else and back to 60 again. So I started investigating things about the...

    [SOLVED] Laptop HDMI won't work at 4K60 after Nvidia update

    Well, you really think it is normal for a brand new laptop to come with outdated drivers that causes problems with modern software (Adobe Premiere, hardly an obscure piece of software) )because they're labelled as not supported anymore (too old)? So basically, what you're telling people is to...

    [SOLVED] Laptop HDMI won't work at 4K60 after Nvidia update

    This is really a strange one. I have this ASUS Laptop ROG Zephyrus m15 with a GTX 1660 Ti in it. The default driver it comes with is quite old (430.58), but it works fine. (Although Adobe Premiere says it's too old and unsupported - which can be quite an inconvenience). So of course I want to...

    Quit Holding Your Breath For Xbox VR

    VR is all cool and fun, but the most important thing is that despite the efforts of Sony, it is still a niche market as of now. I'm not debating how useful it could be for some designers, or for some specific applications, but as a home entertainment device, VR is still not ready for prime-time...

    Strange boot/post issues on Ryzen build

    Update : After some more testing, I decided to go back to the computer store and swap the board for another one, and change the ram for a model on the qvl list for that new board, just to be sure. Vendor swapped the board and ram no problem, only charging me the difference. To me it didn't...

    graphic card inquiry

    I'll say like many people would obviously say: What do you intend to do with this PC? The i7-2600 is still fine (although showing its age) for moderately nice gaming at 1080p with a varying level of details, if that's what you intend to do. And modern graphic cards probably won't run at their...

    Strange boot/post issues on Ryzen build

    I'm currently building a system for a friend of mine, and came across something very strange. The system won't post/boot most of the time, but sometimes, it will. I'll add that I'm not touching anything inside in-between booting and non-booting results. I'd say it posts/boots about once every...

    Facebook Journalism Project Battles 'Fake News' Problem

    Thruth isn't something variable or something that could differ from person to person. Truth is defined usually by something that's provable, usually backed up by established facts. When people say "something could be true for someone but not for someone else", they are mixing "truths" with...

    Samsung Embarks On 'Odyssey' With Its First Gaming Laptops

    Why limit the 15.6 inch model to a GTX1050? Why not offering options? Most "gaming" laptops on offer from competitors offer at least a 1060. I'm not saying you can't game on a 1050, it's powerful enough for a decent gaming experience at 1080p, but you'd think a company wanting to get into the...
