  1. MSI laptop keeps crashing

    Big amen to this with my MSI laptop also. (y)
  2. Solved New laptop, constantly running fan, high core temp?

    Just a side note. Some like to poop on manufacturer utilities but personally love MSI Dragon Center on my laptop. It allows manually setting throttle points for the fans. After experimenting when I first got it with the settings, it now stays around 80-85 when heavily loaded. Sure it is a laptop...
  3. Solved bsod every 6 hours

    Might also check Task Scheduler to see if something is activating every six hours. Could also see if disabling scheduled tasks one at a time has any effect. Seems strange it appears to be time based.
  4. Microsoft continuing the story of early DOS development

    Old is new again. Time for some extremely pixelated games!
  5. How to stop downloading/installing updates?

    @Ceelix Hostile replies are never good, especially when the user was identifying even a possible issue. That would turn me off completely.
  6. Solved Windows 11 update

    Hilarious, it was dead and now it lives again! That's one way to do it.
  7. Mom's new HP Pavilion Desktop: BSOD when Idle

    @jessewilliams56 Please mark as solved if your #22 post has permanently fixed the issue. Thank you.
  8. Mom's new HP Pavilion Desktop: BSOD when Idle

    RAM mismatch to hardware can cause all kinds of weird issues. Glad you got it sorted and the seller knew how to correct it.
  9. Why did the screen become black?

    I don't. I was showing what Intel reports if the display output is set correctly to the nVidia GPU.
  10. Why did the screen become black?

    This is what Intel Command Center shows since I have primary GPU set to Nvidia.
  11. Why did the screen become black?

    I'd try the newest. If that doesn't work I would delete all the drivers and uninstall the graphics card. Makes sure Windows update is enabled and reboot. Take any precautions you feel are necessary like copy of latest driver, restore point, etc. Just guessing you have a CPU with video also...
  12. Why did the screen become black?

    You mention you've used 3 different drivers. Are you presently using the newest? Gaming or Studio?
  13. How many of you use a Mini PC or a laptop for your primary system?

    Closed lid laptop with external keyboard, monitor and Bluetooth mouse here. Keyboard sits on closed lid with laptop tucked under the monitor. It never goes anywhere.
  14. Win Update KB5079473 Windows 11 Cumulative Update build 26100.8037 (24H2) and 26200.8037 (25H2) - March 10

    No issues with my laptop using the Nvidia GPU with HDMI monitor connected. Does have the Intel GPU of course but I have the RTX3060 selected as primary.
  15. Should I disable IPv6 or not?

    Good point. WireGuard uses peer to peer so keeping IPv6 enabled should make it a bit faster it would seem.
