So I have a strange problem. I work at school and our history teacher got a interactive white board. White board has its own computer built in with windows 11 installed. In addition I connected a monitor to it and I have set it to extended display, so she can do work while students watch a movie...
I built a brand new pc a few weeks ago. At first I was having no problems at all, but then once in a while I would get a BSOD. I reverted my overclocking and reset my bios, but it didnt help. Now it has gotten even worse and sometimes I can't even log in. It can sit on the Windows log in...
I'm at my wits' end and hoping to find assistance on an issue I'm having with my PC build. My computer has been experiencing BSOD between 2:30 a.m and 5:00 a.m. every night. The PC functions fine during the day, which I use as a combination workstation and PLEX server. Here is a brief history of...
Hello,
My friend wants me to install W11 on a new NVMe SSD and still keep his original W10 on another drive, then eventually move stuff over to the new W11 installation.
It's a B550 AORUS ELITE V2 Motherboard system with fairly newer hardware, it meets the requirements for Windows 11.

Hey.
I'm dealing with unusually high memory usage on Windows 11, occurring immediately after boot.
As a developer, I maintain a clean system with minimal running applications. Despite this, my memory usage is abnormally high, and more frustratingly, I can't trace the source.
I recently...
Hello.
Laptop Model: ASUS ROG Strix G512LV
Back when I first got this laptop I used to run it without Armory Crate and scored around 2800 - 2850 max. I then discovered that Armory Crate actually boosted performance when put in turbo mode and began scoring 3150 - 3200.
I've just updated to...
Can you suggest a Windows 11 lower-end laptop, or a used laptop with a long warranty (eg 90 days), which can run at regular mode (not battery-saving) for 4+ hrs?
One of the goal is running a 3D 15 year old game, which I could set to low settings and to a resolution lower than native, eg 720p. I...

Hello everyone,
I have been experiencing persistent issues with my Windows 11 system affecting both printing and updates for several weeks. Despite trying various solutions, the problem persists. Below, I outline the specific problems and actions I have already taken:

The title says it all, unfortunately. I recently swapped my Windows over to a larger SSD. The cloning process disabled BitLocker on the new drive and I just went to re-enable it. The process seemed to go well, and I got my identifier and recovery key. I restarted my PC when it requested it and...
So basically I have owned 3 PCs to date and I had all of them running windows 11... But i have been experiencing similar problems for the past 5-6 months... My computer just suddenly stops responding but my cursor still works... I can't do cntrl+alt+del or anything else to the computer other...
I recently did a fresh installation of Windows 11, because I was having issues with Windows. I couldn't reset the installation because the recovery partition went AWOL during a cloning process.
So the reinstallation went well, at least that's what I hoped, but I'm seeing this in Device Manager...
I installed a new GPU (RX 7900 XTX) and a new PSU (Corsair 1000W), then uninstalled the old drivers from my previous GPU, an RX 6700 XT. After the installation, there was no image on my screen at first. It took several attempts before it finally booted to the BIOS, which oddly reported a new CPU...

This is happening on my Lenovo Legion 5 Pro. I remember checking for and updating everything around late August before school started and at the time, there were only two windows updates and both were successful. I was checking system updates today and noticed a huge list of pending installs. I...
Hi,
I created an account on a company's website that required access to my Microsoft account for login. I no longer wish to be a member and would like to revoke their access. However, I’ve been unable to find where to do this. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hello! Like I said on the title , my cpu Intel i7-6700k (6th gen) is not supported for windows 11 and normally I wouldn't mind staying to windows 10.. but I read that after October 14 2025, Microsoft will no longer release security updates for windows 10. I was thinking to format my PC anyway...
I built my PC a year ago and haven't had this issue until recently when I reinstalled Windows 11.
Everytime I either restart or Shut Down my PC it just hangs with the DRAM light on my motherboard being lit up; until I ultimately have to hold down the power button to hard shut down.

Hi everyone,
Pretty simple question here,
Lately, my OS drive died on me. I brought it to an expert an e was able to recover 100% of its content.

Not long ago my power supply failed, and I got a new one (slightly more powerful than needed, as I want to upgrade to a B550 board and Zen 3 CPU soon). I also unplugged and removed everything - including the CPU and 3 SATA drives - so I could mount everything on a test bench for easy access...
Hey guys, I'm currently running Windows 10 and looking to upgrade to Windows 11. I built my PC mid way through 2020 and had my old 2tb HDD from my previous computer mirrored onto a 2tb Sata SSD. I also bought a 1tb NVMe SSD for extra storage, the idea was to continue using the SSD with my...

Hey folks, just finished my new gaming rig build (specs and software versions [1]), and I'm experiencing disappointing system instability. I'm a longtime computer engineer and deeply technical, but I'm a complete novice when it comes to Windows 11 (or Windows in general, to be honest, I'm a...
Hello, I'm encountering an odd issue with my new build. About every 3-5 boots (it seems to be completely random) it will power on, post with the usual progress wheel, but then instead of booting windows, it just gives a black screen. The monitor is still receiving a signal, but its just black...
I have a portable Ubuntu installation that I use on multiple devices. I used it on my Lenovo laptop that had Windows 11 installed on it and both OS worked fine. I don't remember what I did but now I can't boot into Windows but Ubuntu still works. I've tried numerous solutions and even...

For some reason, I can't boot from my SSD which has Windows installed on it unless I have CSM enabled in my motherboard's UEFI settings.
I believe this is preventing secure boot from enabling properly, which is preventing me from updating to Windows 11 due to the secure boot requirement. I'd...
An update from Microsoft turned my computer into a useless brick, because it goes into a blue screen look, ACPI BIOS ERROR

In the Local Group Policy Editor, in the Automatic Update Setting, option 2 is selected – Notify before downloading and installing any updates. I think it's not worth explaining this point, especially due to massive problems after installation (KB5041585). But with this setup, the Update of the...
