I have neither the time nor the expertise to find the root of this problem. It seemed to me that it was the onboard graphics of the motherboard, so I decided to bypass that and install a video card. I installed a Gigabyte Geforce RTX3050. Since then, I have not had the rebooting problem. I...

I installed and used the NZXT cpu/gpu monitor. It show my temps never exceeded 40 C, and not over 8% use. And that was while watching the videos that usually cause the reboot. The FurMark test, I ran it for 15 minutes and apparently I don't know what to look for. No directions came with the...

Thanks. I didn't know there was a WD Dashboard. I've installed it and it tells me everything is up to date and running fine. Thanks.

I've been having trouble for a long time with video playback. When I view videos from Facebook or YouTube, my system will eventually reboot. All my drivers are up to date. Windows 11 is up to date. The bios is up to date. I think that I will try to add a video card and stop using the...

Yes. It would not run. So I ran the other recommended one.

here is the compressed file.

My computer reboots a lot. It seems to happen when I'm on the internet, via Chrome. Any help would be appreciated.

I wish I could. A cat5 is all there will ever be, due to the locations involved.

Fiber goes to my router. A cat5 cable goes from the router to a 10 year old Netgear 8 port switch and then to my A/V equipment and a WiFi repeater. It all worked well for a while. Now, there are intermittent outages from the WiFi and a slowdown in my FireTV. Both are connected to the 8 port...

On a new build, I realize I have allocated my drives wrong. I have a 2TB SSD and have allocated it. Then, I added data to both, and now I want to change the size of those drives. Can I do that? If so, how? Thanks in advance. Windows 11 Home

Success!!! Win11 loaded and is running. Thank you all for the help. Thanks for being patient with me and my lack of expertise. I think I can handle it from here. (Maybe) Again, thank you all...........

A bit of progress! After removing then reinserting the battery, I was able to enable the Intel PTT and it stayed enabled after rebooting. Then, Win11 loaded a bit further then stopped and asked which partition to load onto. #1: 15.0 MB or #2 1863.0GB. When I chose #2 it said "we couldn't...

If I try it by removing the battery, what should I do when I turn it back on? Anything special?

I have not tried. I am reluctant to do so, since I really don't know what I'm doing.
