    Windows 7 Pro drives not showing up

    So I have an issue that happens on two computers. Both have the exact same specs and programs installed with Windows 7 Pro. The issue is that the drives do not show up in windows explorer randomly. They will work fine for a couple of days, then all of a sudden the drives quit showing up. The...

    Yahoo Mail news notifications?

    I recently switched from a Galaxy S5 running Android 6.0.1 and Yahoo Mail app 5.6.5 to a Nexus 6 running Android 6.0.1 and Yahoo Mail app 5.6.5. The issue I am having is that I keep getting Yahoo News notifications through the Yahoo Mail app. I didn't have this issue on the Galaxy S5. Only on...

    VR headset for virtual showroom?

    Let me start by saying I have zero experience with anything VR. But my bosses think I am a tech wizard because I build my own computers and can run/program CNC machines. Well they came up with an idea of creating a virtual showroom to display all of our products. We have a couple of salesmen...

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    Would the Netgear R6250 be a good choice? There is a seller on eBay that has them refurbished for $64 shipped. And I guess my version of stable is much more forgiving than yalls. If I only have to reset it once every 2 or 3 months then I am fine with that. I have had other routers besides the...

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    Good morning. I am about to buy two of the new Chromecast to do some streaming on my TVs. But I highly doubt my current router will be able to keep up. It is a 12 year old Linksys WRT54g. Got it when I moved from dialup to DSL. I am out in the country and have CenturyLink so I dont have insane...

    40" 4K monitor for productivity?

    My desk is 27.5" high instead of the industry standard of 29". Plus I had planned on taking the stand off and building a custom stand that would place the bottom edge about .25" off the desk. I don't think the height will be an issue. Never know though. The monitor would be placed roughly 24-30"...

    40" 4K monitor for productivity?

    Currently I am using a 24" 1920x1200 and a 20" 1600x900 side by side. I am looking at getting an AMH A399U from eBay to increase productivity at work. I will be using it as 4 separate 1080p screens essentially. Is this easily doable with Windows 8.1 Pro? I would still want the start menu in the...

    No display

    Ive tried removing the GPU completely and running the onboard video. Still nothing. Everything is plugged in tight and securely. Any other ideas or has my motherboard completely died? The ethernet port died on it about 3 weeks ago. This is everything that is in my computer. The power supply...

    XL PCI NIC?

    I forgot all about this thread. The cards work well in Ubuntu. However they aren't even recognized in Windows 8.1. They served their purpose though. Just used them long enough to make sure 100% that the ethernet port had gone bad on the motherboard before I RMA it. They are definitely relics...

    XL PCI NIC?

    So I'm 99.9% sure the ethernet port on my motherboard went bad the other day. I've updated everything in Windows 8.1 and tested it in Ubuntu MATE. It still doesn't work. But just to be extra thorough before I RMA, I borrowed a NIC from one of the tech support guys at work. He gave me two...

    Microsoft Register Server?

    I went to the folder that it is trying to access but the only thing that is in there is folders for Adobe, Brother, Microsoft, and Sun. I have my folder options set to show all hidden files yet I still cannot see what it is trying to access. I searched the full file name with no results.

    Microsoft Register Server?

    So a coworker used my personal laptop today and now I am getting the "User account control" pop up for Microsoft Register Server every 90 seconds. This coworker is notorious for clicking on anything and installing anything so I am wary of clicking Yes on this just in case it is a virus disguised...
