Hello, I am in the market for a SSD for my GL752VW-DH71 laptop, and I am interested in the Samsung 960 Evo. (PCI) Now I look at the back of my laptop, and there's a label which clearly says: "M.2 2280 SLOT SUPPORT SATA SSD ONLY" Which means that the Samsung 960 Evo would not work, as it...

Okay, new problem. I don't think it's the HDD. Earlier this morning I took out the power cable and the SATA cable from the DVD (since it does not work anymore), and now I have two SATA HDDs connected. I ran the windows 7 ISO from the 500GB HDD and selected the 3TB as the destination to install...

LBA? What's that? And the hard drive is clean, I have done nothing to it. I just took it out of the package prior to trying to install it.

I recently acquired a SEAGATE HDD with 3TB capacity, and I'm trying to replace my current 500 GB HDD. I've run into several problems such as not recognizing more than 2048 GBs in the installation program, but I've read on what to do once I have windows installed. The problem is, I cannot get...

Most of the time It hovers around this: Used memory: 30%-45% (1400ish) of 4029 mb Allocated Memory 63% (2546MB) Doesn't seem like it's using all the RAM. I should state that my computer is at least 5 years old, and I've never changed the hard drive, and reformatted several times. Would...

Yes I can run vanilla minecraft with 0 lag and no issues. In fact I can run around 60 of the most popular mods without issues. But this 211 mod pack is too much for my PC. Would upgrading the RAM help? I've read in so many places that there's no noticeable difference from 6gbs to 12gb or 16gb...

Minimum memory is 2gbs, max memory is 4gbs. I can allocate up to 5.9GB max, but im not sure if that's a good idea, since ive read that putting all your RAM on max might cause lag. Graphic settings are minecraft original, so the standard average settings, no HD texture packs.

I'm trying to run Resonant Rise 3 for a modded minecraft experience, which has 211 mods installed in its average setting. I can get into the game fine, but it lags briefly almost in any action. I have about $200 dollars which I can spend on upgrading any part of my computer, and I would...

How would I go about doing that? Also there are two MAC addresses with the same laptop name, since the router gives me the names of the devices that were connected to it. Is that normal? There's also a nameless one with an actual MAC address which I don't know where it belongs to, and I'm not...

Actually the wifi from that person's laptop does not work, so it's always connected to the internet by an ethernet cable, hence why I want to make sure I block out all internet connection.

Hello, I'm trying to block the internet access to a laptop, and I've been reading on how to do it and it seems that MAC filtering is the solution. I have a D-Link DIR-600 Router, and the option I found was in Advanced > Mac Filter, where I put the MAC address of the laptop in question. I...

I currently have 3 sticks of 2 GBS DDR3 Kingston 1333mhz each, will it run smoothly if I install 3 sticks of DDR3 ADATA 4 GB 1333MHZ UDIMM ? Altogether with the 6gb i currently have of course, making it 18 GB of total memory. Is it possible?

If I upgrade RAM, what does that mean? Does it mean I have to always have three sticks installed in?

I'm in the market for upgrading my computer, and I've been wondering what's best for me. And here's why I decided to do it: I run DA: Inquisition on windowed fullscreen on a monitor, and on a second monitor I run browsers (3-4 tabs) and skype mostly. What I've noticed is that after a while of...
