Apologies for the silence for a while, I came up with a temporary solution that hasn't fixed anything, just prevents it from being able to turn off (A macro just clicking control once every minute for a single splitsecond) There's now a new problem, which is that now my audio is fluctuating as...

anything and everything. I already said before, opera, edge, even discord streams - windows media player, all versions of - it simply doesn't matter what it is. youtube, crunchyroll, amazon, everything.

because my computer is a home version of windows, it did not have a group policy. but on a whim, i checked my gpresult and it said, sure enough, that the group policy had been updated the very same day that i started having issues. which was the 12th.. I force installed the group policy editor...

further update: It has started occuring unilatirally now, not even edge is safe anymore. I can't think what could possibly be causing such a frustrating problem.

Yeah, I already did go into the advanced power settings. Everything is set (if it can be) to never, and if it can't be, to 6000 seconds (100 minutes) - yet it's still turning off every ten. i did look through my system section of the events viewer last time it happened, but i coudln't see...

when asked what my favourite game was, and what my experience playing it were, I have five answers. Borderlands 2; a game i first overlooked but then found the spirit of playing with my father. Homeworld; a game given to me by my father when i was young, and a game i've truly cherished and...

On this note i do have an update. It doesn't matter (mostly, which is the odd thing) what i'm watching it on. Personal files on media player, youtube videos on opera, streamed content on discord - it all does it there. But, when i'm watching (so far specifically only from one site but that i...

Hi chaps. Having a tad of an issue here. Last night, for no discernible reason, my computer screens started turning off after 10 minutes, even when i'm watching a video, even when it's full screen, and nothing is solving it. it's not a hardware issue, because moving the mouse turns them back on...

I'd call £50 a budget; ideally somewhere around the £30-35 mark, but the upper limit would be 50.

Hello! I want to avoid sounding like a choosy begger but this might need a little explanation. So, I have autism, and one of my vices, so to speak, is texture - audio too, has a texture. It means that i end up severely discomforted by low quality audio to the point that I would rather no audio...

Well, nobody responded here but a friend of mine did give me one thing I overlooked - check my drivers, update them and remove any unnecessary ones in the device manager. I removed Hamachi and Wippien and alas, one of those was actually the issue. moral of that story? Check your drivers.

Whew. that's not half bad. for a price like that... that's like £570 here. I say go for it. Addendum: You can easily find more stats about the processor and such by looking it up, I checked for benchmark stats and it seems good from my perspective. it's mid-range, but that doesn't mean it's bad...

Okay, I have a shortlist of laptops you might want to check out, in order of price. Bear in mind, I am from britain, and will be using the .co.uk amazon, so if you use the .com version prices may differ. I have removed any options that have below 1 TB of space, and with less than 8 GB RAM. all...

Honestly? for what you are doing with it I would say it's probably a little overkill. that being said, it does sound like a damn good deal to me - though I don't know what the price is as you only said how much off it is. could you give me the exact model number? the Inspiron is a fairly large...

I have been having really long load times on browsers recently. on chrome I noticed that the process it seems to be taking forever on is resolving host. I've tried everything I can think of, clearing DNS chache in chrome, manually setting my internet DNS to a fast one, clearing and resetting my...
