Hey, thanks very much! I genuinely appreciate your help. It's not surprising that I can find no official documentation for those settings, given that many engineers, especially hardware engineers, are often disinclined to write these up for the average hardware dummy like myself. Thanks again!

I am perplexed by many of the Advanced Property settings for the on-board Qualcomm Atheros AR8162/8166/8168 PCIE Fast Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.30) on my Toshiba Satellite laptop running 64-bit Windows 10 Version 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1288). What I'm looking for are the best settings to both...

It's provided by IPVanish as the main, most secure connection technology, and it works fine on my Windows 10 computers and on my Second Generation Fire TVs.

Thank you, sinisterDei, for your reply! See, the thing is, it is absolutely necessary to have a Realtek Bluetooth driver installed so that the Microsoft work-around can work. I've found several such drivers (mostly from station-drivers), and spent a lot of time trying to install any of them...

I am utterly unable to upgrade my home-built desktop running 64-bit Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 due to the known issue with Realtek Bluetooth drivers described here: Updating to a new version of Windows 10 on devices with some driver versions for Realtek Bluetooth radios BUT The solution...

Thanks for your reply! I don't think it's a Windows 7 Pro issue, since the exact same thing happens with all of my Win 10 Pro systems as well,

I have a couple of Windows 7 applications that can use a touchpad for gestures (primarily Pot Player). So I bought a small, external wireless USB touchpad for this purpose. But Windows Explorer always just grabs and dominates it completely. But I emphatically do NOT want Explorer to use it at...

Yep, you make a lot of sense. Thank you! Just ordered a replacement,,,

Last week, I was happily coding away on my best machine that's about 7 years old when it just shut itself off and stayed utterly dead. So I ordered the same model mobo for a replacement, and I just finished putting it all together, and now it will only stay on for a second before shutting off...

Probably I'm stupid, but I've been trying for days to upgrade the firmware of my Aten CS1764a 4-port USB KVM without getting anywhere close! Here's a link to the manual: User Manual (pdf) For example, what do you think they mean, exactly, when it says: "Disconnect the CS1762A / CS1764A from...

BINGO! That fixed it! It doesn't make any sense that these settings would suddenly change and prevent wake-ups without any changes whatsoever, but I don't care about that now that it's working again. Enormous thanks, gimp! :)

Thanks, gimp! I'll give that a try and report back

Thanks, EchoWars! I hope you can find it.

Additional Info-- output of "powercfg –devicequery wake_armed" command: HID-compliant system controller (002) Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller HID-compliant consumer control device (008) HID-compliant vendor-defined device (022) Logitech USB TrackMan Wheel (009) HID Keyboard Device (027)

All of a sudden, my 64-bit Win 10 Pro (v 1511) desktop will no longer wake up from sleep via my USB keyboard or mouse. It worked perfectly for the last year until yesterday, no matter how many power cycles it went through. I shut it down last night, but after I booted up this morning and later...

Hello I wish to perform a secure erase/format on my Plextor PX-G256M6e v1.04 PCIe m.2 ssd drive. Whenever I try to do so using their software utility Plextool v1.1.5, it produces an incomprehensible (because of terrible translating skills) error message: "Security frozen lock might be...

Update: Problem essentially RESOLVED! :) There were major electrical storms here most of the night, and given my luck, I figured that a lightning hit would strike right at the worst moment and make things far worse, so I naturally waited several hours before continuing to troubleshoot this...

Okay, thanks, Lunas

Thanks for the info, drescherjm. I didn't know that...

Hey, thank you Shadohh for your helpful reply! I was beginning to wonder if I'd get one... I will do exactly as you suggest and report back.

Thanks for your reply, but if that's the case, why does MemTest86+ insist after about 20 hours of repeated heavy-duty testing that the RAM is utterly, 100% perfect? Also, there are no negative customer reviews for that RAM.

Update as of Monday morning:[/b So I've done more research and it turns out that the lack of option ROM space is probably the biggest problem. It's why the three disk adapter cards and the disks attached to them tend to appear and disappear at random. And that's probably involved somehow in...

After replacing the previous 4x1GB DDR2 DIMMs with 4x2GB DDR2 DIMMs in my Asus mobo, the machine started behaving very weirdly! Note that these problems arise well before trying to load Windows. Here are the symptoms: (1): The PCIe graphics adapter will work fine every other boot-up, but on...

Hey, I found it! First, out of frustration that I couldn't find BIOS rev 1001 for the Asus P5WDG2 WS Pro motherboard, I actually ordered a brand new BIOS chip with that BIOS version already loaded into it. I ordered it directly from Asus eStore, so I was confident it was going to be good. I...

I've been searching for that also, and like you, I found all the links to be dead, too. I want to upgrade the P5WDG2 WS Pro BIOS to support an Intel Q9650 Quad processor but the latest official Asus BIOS (v905) is reportedly not compatible. If I ever track it down, I'll definitely report back...
