Hi everyone. I'm pretty new to KVM Switches and I'm just wondering what the easiest way would be for my desired setup. Right now I have 3 monitors, 2 of them are connected to my gaming PC and 1 is connected to my laptop. I don't like having 2 keyboards and mice to control both PC's so the...

Basically, I partitioned my 450GB ssd so 50GB is allocated to Windows, and the other 400GB is used for Ubuntu. I'm pretty sure I used the 400GB partition but how do I know it's on that partition? I want to make sure I"m using the right partition or I'll run out of space.. Thanks for your help...

The quality ended up being on "16 bit, 44100 Hz (CD Quality)" and changed it to "24 bit, 192000 Hz (Studio Quality). Music sounded great with that little change! I tried the other enhancements but the sound seems like it's "fake" and doesn't have a good soundstage compared to my laptop and...

Hi I'm just wondering if I should get a DAC/AMP or a sound card to get better quality sound. Right now I'm using ATH-M50X's and they sound wonderful with my Samsung Galaxy S7, and HP laptop (w/ Beats Audio), but my computer is running a basic audio configuration with a MSI motherboard. I also...

So recently my wifi would be fine, but at some points it would be able to even connect, and if it did the speeds would be insanely slow. I decided to take apart my laptop again and it turns out there is only one wire/cable connected to the wifi card. Knowing from my experience with laptops...

I'm just wondering if I can have 2 separate SSD's, with Windows 10 on one and Ubuntu on the other one. I want Ubuntu to be separate from Windows 10 for more security, so if I boot from the "Win 10 SSD" would I be able to see the contents within that "Ubuntu SSD" or would it be encrypted if I...

That was so easy! Thank you so much!

So I have a SSD for my Windows boot drive, and a hard drive dedicated for Windows 10. I have recently put in my old laptop HDD for Ubuntu 15.10, installed it, but I can't find it in the boot menu. I have checked in Windows 10 Disk Management and all 3 drives show up, the SSD, HDD, and the one I...

I have been interested in servers, and I'm thinking about building a homeserver to backup my gaming computer, and my laptop. I will also put media on there (Movies, Pictures, etc) on my server. I'm just wondering what's important when building the computer, the things to look for. I just need...

So I had a command prompt step-to-step guide on how to clean the drive, format it, and assign the drive a letter to get it prepared for a bootable OS flash drive. Here are my steps All I did was clean my old laptop hard drive (to be used as a backup for my SSD in my laptop), and now it doesn't...

I have been having this issue a while back. So I have recently did a fresh install with Windows 7 64-bit since I thought Windows 10 was the issue. I would randomly get computer freezes when I would try to load 4 or more tabs open (I haven't had this issue when I first built this computer). So...

I'm wondering if I should get a amp externally and then an actual sound card in my computer. Would that improve the sound quality compared to just getting a sound card? Also I want a dac/amp for my speakers which are the AV30's. I want to improve the quality of both my speakers, and my...

I have recently been getting studdering with playing Dota 2. Also the load times for youtube has been really slow recently too. My card usually runs 70 degrees celcius if I don't turn the fan on and 60 degrees with the fan on. I know this card is really old.. but I think it's time to switch the...
