Hi All, I'm trying to help my mother in law with her internet and install a mesh network throughout her house. Unfortunately, she has Suddenlink, so it has been a nightmare getting them install her initial modem, she said they came out multiple times and were here for hours. I do not know what...

I agree. Frustratingly weird. Probably the most i've every been frustrated with a computer (and that is saying a lot!) As of today: Desktop: Use ethernet connection, with Speedtest.net (either thru Cox website or the app), I get 40/0.6ish. With a USB/Ethernet converter to a 3.0 port, I get...

Sorry for the confusing post. The actual problem is slow webinar speeds ("unstable internet) across different platforms (Zoom, MS Teams, proprietary platforms, etc.), This really came to a head when she had a big webinar that was being recorded a few weeks ago, and the recording was horrible...

Hi All, I've noticed that I get really different speeds when speed testing through Cox's speedtest.net and through any other speed test (Fast.com, speedofme, etc.). Now, this would be just a weird anomaly, but I think it is affecting my wife's zoom webinars. For the past couple of months...

Hi All, Our family PC that we have had for 3 or so years (Dell Alienware Aurora R7 running Window 10 home has started to crash lately. Typically, the computer freezes and then the monitor goes dark (still power to it) and the computer doesn't restart. I need to force a restart at the on/off...

Thank you. Everything is working great. Little by little I am getting more comfortable working inside of the box!

I just disconnected both drives. Everything booted up just fine. My C: drive is now Drive 0 in Disk Management.

Ok, I'll take a stab at it later. I haven't changed the boot drive with the OS on it. It's always been C: (I just got the computer a week ago). The old ssd is only going to be used for games/video editing.

Hmmm.... I'm not sure I am comfortable with disconnecting all of the existing drives (E: and F:) given that installing the old SSD into the new computer gave me pause/some problems. I guess I can if necessary, but it may prove challenging.

I've had a lot of problems migrating from an old PC running Windows 10 to a new PC running Windows 10. The current problem is that I am attempting to install a SSD from my old computer to my new computer. I've installed it and booted up the computer and I can access everything in the drive and...

Wow! After researching this all day (and being frustrated to no end), it turns out there is a firmware update for the sabrent hard drive docking station. The firmware states that it is for hard drives greater than 4tb (mine is 3tb). However, this worked! Hopefully people will stumble on this...

This is frustrating! There is nothing I can do on the new computer to manipulate the drive? I was told this would be the easiest way to transfer the data from my old computer to my new computer. Now I have to reassemble my old computer just to see if it is salvageable...

I just bought a new Alienware Aurora R7 running Windows 10 Home. I wanted to transfer some data from my old PC (running Windows 10) to my new PC. SO, I took my old hard drive from my old computer (a 3TB WD Red) and put it in a Sabrent external disk enclosure. After attaching the drive, the...

An external enclosure is the perfect solution! I didn't even think of that. Thank you so much for the help.

Yes, the computer is in the mail. I'm just getting ready for when it arrives. I am assuming the Hard Drive is in the 3.5 slot. The computer will have one 1080 GPU.
