Okay well maybe. I hadn't thought of it like that before... :unsure: I figured a computer would just see power as power LOL

Yes, I know for sure now that some of the broken links Actually he was really smart. He knew how much wattage my old PS used before I could even read 460W on the sticker, based on what kind of video card I had(you might not be impressed by that but I was lol). He's been in it for 30 years and I...

I really doubt it. The PS fit in the case but it was slightly larger. Again it looked very similar but this was pulled from one of the techs shelves. The computer is a Dell and I doubt they're using the same brands probably. I'm really glad it worked. And if all I have to do is fix some broken...

I watched the tech, he plugged the new PS to the existing cable extensions already plugged into the hardware. At first it didn't work. So he tried using the new cables and removed all original cables. He also reset the motherboard, I saw the CMOS battery come out. When he started with it like...

Nope. I haven't touched the hard drives. Earlier today I was playing the Sims and the computer froze. I had to hold down the power button to turn it off and it never came back on. I took it to a shop and replaced the power supply. When I got it back home, I had to point apps to their data...

Impossible? That's what I thought! I think there actually may be some renaming of drives, swapping c's, d's and e's but it's still looking weird. Something, got unpartitioned or deformatted or, something. It didn't look like this before. Also, I've actually managed to find most of my apps on...

I replaced a power supply in my system and it appears to have wiped a whole partition. "My PC" now shows 3 drives like it normally would, but the drive that contained all my programs has been somehow unformatted. I've done nothing to the hard drives, so my question is why is one of the drives...

Cool idea I'll look at it and get back

If they've kept tabs on my location somehow sure it could definitely be that I can imagine. How to know though? lol

Tell me more about the third you listed. I can understand how a compromised online account could result in data loss or a financial attack. Whatever this is, could possibly be some kind of direct control. Can software like that be installed through the net without being downloaded and...

I've replaced the devices before. It's like I'm being targeted by this individual(s) even if I replaced the whole computer, it will work normally for a couple of weeks and then start acting hacked. Security software isn't catching the cause though. I might be a little behind the times, but I...

I met someone at a previous job that employs an entire tech company to do his bidding. I think he or one of his lackeys are hackers and may have some sort of scripts or other sneaky software on my devices. I've had weird things happening across my android devices and windows 10 machines since I...

Update: I used the sysinternals process monitor. I can't find anything that sticks out as unusual. Anything scrolling when the issue occurs appear to be legit. I checked event viewer in Windows and the only event I can find recorded by anything on the system when the problem most recently...

That's right it doesn't minimize the same program. I have been in at least a couple completely different full screen apps and it's happened when using edge and chrome browsers as well(not maximized). If it happened right now while typing this reply to you, the text field would lose focus as I...

Firstly thank you for your time reading this and trying to help. I have a Windows 10 machine which I purchased new for the purpose of 1. making sure that it's fresh with no malware or hackers and thinking a new computer would run at its best. 2. primarily running full screen apps and media as...
