    Question How do I remove a hardware update from Windows 11 Update?

    I looked into all of the above, and nothing is working (I also asked MS directly through their community and got useful though ineffective help). This is more of an annoyance than anything else. The PC in question is a Probook 430 G3, which is ineligible for Windows 11 (so, of course, I...

    I have a Dell Inspiron 3668 running Windows 10. When I use HDMI with the built-in Intel chipset, all is OK. The PC turns off the monitor and goes to sleep as expected. When I use the HDMI port on the RX 560 card, the monitor goes to sleep for a second and then wakes up again. I have searched a...
