    Question Intermittently losing 8gb of installed 16gb ram.

    Question Intermittent black screen

    I've been putting up with an intermittent black screen that pops up every hour or so and usually lasts 3-4 seconds. I'm dual booted and this happens under Windows 10 Pro64 more than Ubuntu 18.04 but it does happen on both. I've swapped monitors to no avail. I stopped using the onboard Intel...

    About once a week I seem to be encountering a problem with my home network where some devices lose connection to the internet and/or LAN.
