    Question Realtek USB 3.0 Card Reader Shows up as an Unspecified Device

    Well, that didn't work. I put in a new SanDisk 32GB SD card in and it is not recognized on my Win10 or Win11 pc.

    Question Realtek USB 3.0 Card Reader Shows up as an Unspecified Device

    Uh oh....Without a card. Now I am going to take a wild guess and say that is my problem.:)) That kinda makes sense. I didn't want to remove the SD card from my car until I was sure that the USB adapter would work.

    Question Realtek USB 3.0 Card Reader Shows up as an Unspecified Device

    USB3.0 SD card reader doesn't show up in File Manager. It appears as an Unspecified device in Devices and printers, and under USB Controllers in Device Manager. I've only used it once about a year ago to update the Maps in my car so I don't think it is bad/broke. This is on my Win 10 PC. I...

    [SOLVED] Samsung SSD 840 EVO possible cause of system freeze?

    My PC constantly freezes when playing games, when not doing anything, and whenever it feels like it. Some of the time I will hear a buzzing sound that lasts for maybe 15 seconds when it freezes. I put in a new power supply yesterday thinking that was it but it isn't. I have gotten a few BSODs...

    I currently have a Logitech keyboard and mouse. I bought new ones today. Under the Keyboard and Mice entries in Device Manager there is the Logitech driver as well as a HID compliant yadayada driver. Should I uninstall both drivers and then install the new Logitech drivers and reboot? I've...

    [SOLVED] Jerky Games and Poor Graphics

    I see that the driver was updated on the 16th and you say everything was good until the 19th. Are you sure about that? That looks kinda suspicious. Also, the latest driver for Win10 64 bit is 10/19/20. You have the previous one 9/16/2020. Do you experience the same problem in all of your games...

    Well if you don´t have this behavior, there's no reason why I should:) I forgot about the good ole F5 trick. That's better than clicking off somewhere and back on again. Thanks helpstar!!

    [SOLVED] Windows Explorer Change of Behavior

    In the past, when you deleted a file from a folder, it would immediately disappear. When you copied a file to a folder it would immediately appear. Now I have to move to a different folder and then back again to see the results. Anyone else have this problem? It's not really a problem, but it...

    [SOLVED] Not sure where to post this, but computer is randomly lagging and freezing.

    This is a great post. Great info here. A friend of mine had the same lagging/freezing problem on her HP laptop. What I noticed was the Windows Update was always running when I looked at it. I let it run until all updates were applied. Then rebooted and checked for Updates again. It found more...

    [SOLVED] Help with upgrading monitor to possibly a Samsung CRG5 Series 27" LED Curved FHD G-Sync Monitor

    Thanks jay32267 for the reply. I spent a couple of hours this morning researching monitors and saw where people who had the Nvidia cards and free-sync monitors seemed to have lots of problems. So I figured if I got the GSync monitor I could hopefully eliminate unnecessary problems:)) I...

I want to start getting into the more serious PC games that are offline so I am upgrading my system. I have...
