    [SOLVED] Problem with making a small local network

    The reason you're having trouble is because the N150 is a router, which isolates itself from "upstream" devices. This is by design, since otherwise everyone in your neighborhood would be on your home network via the link to the cable company network. The simplest way to deal with the issue would...

    2 Aux inputs to one output (wireless headset) is this possible?

    You're wanting to plug the TV's sound out to the PC's audio in, then listen with headphones? Why not just put the headphones on the TV? You can, of course, do what you said (if I am understanding it right). The PC's audio mixer is where you would control sound levels of the various sound sources...

    Win 7 Power Plan

    Balanced should have minimum processor at 5% for the default, at least that's what it is on every Win 7 system I have.

    PC to LG TV via HDMI - Corrupted display over time

    Although my LG 43" TV isn't a 4K, about 3-4 weeks ago we had it start blinking on and off like that, which kept getting worse until the HDMI port on the TV stopped working altogether, leaving the "no signal" message bouncing around on the screen. We switched to the other HDMI port and after a...

    Bios doesn’t see my SSD or HDD

    You have power cable connected to the drives as well as the SATA cable? Where are you looking for the drives? Drive connection is pretty simple. There are no settings necessary for the BIOS to be able to identify connected drives.

    Will the Ryzen 5 1500x and the GTX 1050 ti bottleneck when video editing and playing games?

    I think people generally misunderstand this whole "bottleneck" thing. When dealing with a cpu and a video card, the issue is whether your cpu can pass enough data to the video card to "keep it busy" or the video card can process the video data as fast as the cpu is capable of. It's better to...

    Graphics, memory or CPU issues?

    There's no compatibility reason why those parts shouldn't work together smoothly. I'd say that issues with the Windows installation and drivers are the most likely source for your problems. Have you tried running it with only one monitor?

    External Hdd as Main Hdd

    I mean that you can boot to an external drive by setting that drive to be the boot drive in BIOS Setup. If the external drive is an eSATA drive, it is easy, and it will be pretty much like an internal SATA drive. If the external drive is USB, it may take another step or two in BIOS, and it will...
