I was under the impression that it's super important to the system. Could you link me a guide to how to only use igpu in Windows settings?

Hey guys, I have an annoying Asus software problem here. As Asus owners may know, the laptop comes with a personal monitoring system which helps in selecting how the components may run. The software has three modes in the GPU mode section: WINDOWS(DEFAULT) Eco Mode ASUS optimized Mode I...

How do I bypass my college Wi-Fi to play League of Legends or just to open Steam?

I am building a PC from scratch and I was wondering if I have to choose specific cases for different motherboards or all cases are compatible with all motherboards? And I can't figure out which CPU will be compatible with which motherboards.

I have 3 USB ports on my Sony VAIO. Only one port is working. The are not exactly working, for example - when I connect the mouse using the other two ports, the computer doesn't seem to detect it but the mouse light glows.

After a disk checkup, I found out that something is wrong with my 'reallocated sector count' & 'current pending sector count'. The values are as follows: Reallocated Sectors Count ~ 1(current), 1(worst), 10(threshold), 00000001CDB0(raw values) Current Pending Sector Count ~ 100(current)...

I bought an external hard disk of 1TB (Seagate) and after 4-5 months the transfer rate began to drop. The rate when I copy things out of it is 25-30mbps but when I try to put something in it, the transfer rate comes down to 355kbps. I tried changing the wire, didn't work.

I had 4GB RAM installed (2 x ADATA DDR3). I bought a new 4GB RAM chip (ADATA DDR3L). I tried to combine both the chips so that I get 6GB RAM but when I started my laptop, it restarts as soon as it shows the windows logo. [Running on Windows 7 - Ultimate (64 bit), i3-370M 2.40GHz Processor].

I was tinkering with the security settings of Local Disk (C: ) so that I get full access to it so as to delete unwanted files. I tried but accidentally now the local disk doesn't have an owner. So I can't access Administrator (cmd). When I try and access those settings to define an owner, it...

There are a LOT of files present in my 'C:' directory. After I installed Windows 10, there are a LOT of files which I can't access like '$sysreset', '_009484_', '_139218_', etc. and some .tmp files present like 'MSI2c434.tmp', 'MSI4ab60.tmp', 'MSI26245.tmp', etc. Some of these files are empty or...

Let's say that the i5 CPU is not compatible for my motherboard. If I put it in my socket and run the computer, will there be any damage?

I have a Sony Vaio E series with 4 GB RAM, i3-370M 2.40 GHz processor. I have an i5 2.40 GHz processor from a Dell Latitude E6410. Will it be safe to change the processor? (if by chance it fits in the socket.)
