Yea this one is fun. I cannot find a fix let alone find a mention of this issue anywhere. Whether it's YouTube or Prime Video, if I am watching something that isn't 16:9 (my native res) my system lags quite a bit, you can hear the audio distorting. If I enter fullscreen, it completely freezes...

I have been thinking about making my own rust server. I dont really feel like paying 20-40 bucks a month for a server so I guess i can run it myself. Though I was thinking, if you need my IP to connect, can't some determined teen decide to DDoS me and think hes the coolest kid ever? Is there any...

I just upgraded my cpu and now when i try booting my pc all the fans spin up and all the lights turn on ans thrn everything turns off a split second later. I put the cpu in correctly for sure so idk what to do.

So my friend trolled me with one of those prank viruses, but it left one small problem in my system. Every .txt I have on my computer has had it's icon changed, like changed by even a new .txt has that icon, so I guess the virus just changed the default icon.. how can I change it back to the...
