Hello community, I'm using a 43" 4K monitor at 100%/1:1 scaling and find the quadrant-snapping feature in Windows 10 to be incredibly useful for maximizing my screen real estate. However, I've been encountering an issue where, after my machine wakes from sleep, hibernation, or re-initializes...

We have a 27" iMac with three additional outputs (1x Mini-DP, 2x USB-to-HDMI) all extended. We use this with ProPresenter 7. Is there any way to mirror the primary screen (the one built in to the iMac) to a third USB-to-HDMI device but continue extending on the three existing outputs?

Looking for recommendations to an Android app for logging fuel-ups / calculating fuel economy based on fuel-up data.

This posting is basically the same thing as Troubleshooting TFTP/PXE with WDS VM and Ubiquiti Dream Machine but using a MoFi Network MOFI4500-4GXeLTE-V3 OpenWrt router instead of a Ubiquiti Dream Machine. Same exact WDS VM, so nothing has changed on the VM itself and we know that WDS and Windows...

As there is not a single article on the internet on this, I thought I would start a thread to see if others have been making similar observations. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad X220 with an i5 CPU. This laptop is at least 10 years old if not somewhere within the 15 year ballpark. When I first got...

Howdy! I have a VM at 172.16.32.4 named CON-MDT running Windows Deployment Services. If I execute the following command on CON-MDT, it succeeds: If I execute the same command on a different machine (such as my laptop or Intel NUC) it appears to do nothing for a while and then presents a...

First: you can no longer use wusa.exe to uninstall patches silently since Windows 8/Server 2016, so this is out of the question. You. Just. Can't. Do. It! Thanks Microsoft (for ingeniously deciding that parameters /quiet and /kb:kb123456 are illegal to use together). Sometimes wusa.exe will be...

Howdy! What is the difference between 4K 42" TVs and 4K 42" computer monitors? Why would I want to choose a TV over a computer monitor, vice versa?

Hello! A friend has an HP Z820 and is trying to get a SATA PCI-E controller to work. The problem we encounter is that after BIOS POSTs and the motherboard's LSI storage controller initializes, we get a black screen with a blinking underscore. Attached is a photo of the box of the PCI-E...

Howdy! I am on an adventure to disable SNMPv1 (unless required by vendor) and configure SNMPv2c/3 (only highest and most secure possible) on 100-300 clients or 20k-100k devices that are SNMP capable. This includes ensuring devices do not use default SNMP strings and credentials. Does anyone...

Howdy! This thread is about aerial cabling when underground cabling is for whatever reasons not possible. To boot this is an area of many firsts and much ignorance for me. Here is a scenario: you have an office building and an almost-all metal 3-4 story garage with CCTV cameras, and the DVR is...

My brother has brought to my attention that many YouTube videos and websites he finds on how to crimp for a shielded CAT5e/6 cable, including the shielded cable that was crimped at his house by the ISP, show that the sleeve is not inserted into the RJ-45 plug. Example...

I live in an apartment on the top-most floor (3rd), and the Wi-Fi on my Netgear N600 WNDR3700v2 is no longer working properly anymore (both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), but is still able to perform all other functions.

Greetings! The problem: GPO-pushed "%UserProfile%\Desktop" shortcut disappears when executed, Event Viewer indicates a 0x80070002 error. Program does launch. This problem prevents the user from launching the program again, or in some cases we have received reports that the shortcut disappears...

There is this older in-house developed program some users use which generates random file path errors from time to time. If they set the program to run in Windows XP SP3 compatibility, the errors are no more. Evidently, we've also found that if we have a shortcut that has "X:\executable.exe...

Greetings! Does anyone with experience using Matrox have anything to say about using multiple NVIDIA/AMD GPUs instead of Matrox? What benefit do you get with Matrox cards? Is it more stable and reliable? Why use Matrox?

Greetings! We have a 3x3 multi-monitor setup that is driven by a single machine with multiple GPUs. When one monitor is powered off, it causes Windows to reinitialize and screws up the arrangement of applications that were already fullscreened. Is there a device out there that retains EDID...

I am also needing the version number of SSH / OpenSSH in the latest HPE image of ESXi. Nevermind. I wasn't able to run the HPE image as a VM (need real HP hardware), and in vanilla ESXI 6 VMware removed the -v version parameter from SSH. They should get a slap on the wrist. My purpose here on...
