I have a Win 10 PC at work, and a Win11 laptop at home and would like to access the work PC from home. If I leave the work PC on with AnyViewer running, I am able to access my work computer from home. I also set up WOL, which works well. The place I am stuck is logging in to Windows. Is that...

I would like to be able to have a monitor with 3 inputs: VGA, HDMI, and DVI-D and have the monitor detect which input is active. There would only be one input standard working at one time. This monitor would be on a stage, so we could not push an input button or have a remote (unless it was on...

I don't know where to even begin looking for this. What I need is low cost, or better yet, free software that will do the following: A user would log in to a database or website and leave a message. The software would then email a copy of the message to a list of users that have their email...

I bought an MSI laptop a few months ago. It was advertised to have an nVidia Geforce GTX 1660 Ti graphics card. I have an external monitor that I use connected with HDMI and that works just fine. I am using Win10 Home, but a few days ago I wanted to experiment with a few Linux live USB distros...

I have a 2 year old desktop computer. Nothing fancy, i3, Win10 Home, 4GB memory, 1TB HDD. It has started to take 1 to 2 hours to boot up. Sometimes it boots up no problem. Other times it takes hours. I'm not sure where to start looking and am not even sure this is a hardware problem or software...

Just looking to see if these companies are reputable. I know there is a small percentage of people that will bad mouth a company if they got mistreated, but would like to know if either have a good or bad reputation for things like slow shipping, poor customer service, etc. I probably made it...

I am looking to upgrade to a new laptop. There are two laptop companies that I have heard of and need a "thumbs up or thumbs down". The two are Computer Upgrade King and Pro Star. Also, if there is another that needs to be in the discussion, I would like to know about them too. Later today I can...

B00nie, the WLS approach sounds like it might work. My application is in a church. The stage has a VGA connection that goes from the stage to our soundboard, but there is no audio in VGA. When we have guest speakers, they usually bring their laptops to use on the stage. We have an HDMI to VGA...

I need to get audio from a computer (via 3.5mm audio jack) across the room at 55 feet away into a sound board. Running an audio cable would be easiest, but am not able to do that. Any ideas? Wifi, BT, or something else?

I was thinking more along the lines of a hosting company called Hostinger. Does anybody have any good or bad experience with them?

Looking to possibly replace InMotion hosting. I'm not unhappy, just need to find an equivalent that saves me some money. I am paying $166 per year for hosting, backup, one domain, domain privacy. In addition to those things, I need unlimited storage, at least 2 mysql databases, and FTP access. I...

I have decided to get in the attic and run a cat6 from the main router (AC1200) to a second router and use it in AP mode. I am looking at two routers to buy and both are about the same price. Which one is the better router? Both are TP-Link. AX1800 (Archer AX21) $100 or AC2600 (Archer A10) $110

Our current setup: AC 1200 Router RE230 Range Extender (RE) Our church has a router located in an office and the wifi signal must go from the office, through a cinder block wall, and reach to the far end of a big building 75 feet from the wall. The current router just barely reaches, so we...

I experienced something that I have not seen before. I have a desktop with Win10. I have a small tally light that is plugged into the computer's USB for power. The computer has USB 2.0 and the tally light uses a USB-C connector. When I shut down the computer, the light stays lit. If I want the...

I need to start program 1 then pause for 15 seconds then start program 2 and start program 3 Have all this run without the user seeing the command window (invisible mode) and start this batch file with a hot key
