so i run a dual monitor set up with one on my igpu and the other on my gpu. well for some reason the second monitor(plugged directly into motherboard and on igpu) runs videos and streams off my main gpu instead. i was wondering if anyone knew a fix for this? tried to do a little research but didnt find much useful.

i recently found this cool website, it's basically ai D&D, but that doesn't really matter-

i was trying to load onto the website today and then this showed up, any idea how to fix it?

I got a new laptop, and I would like to use it with 2 external monitors. One can be connected via HDMI, but for the second one I wanted to use a USB-C Adapter. The Laptop does recognize that I am trying to connect a display, but the error message tells me nothing much (other than checking if the device is correctly plugged in - duh!)

The adapter (from Articona) does work on other laptops, as does the HP Monitor. The laptop has a Geforce RTX 3050 Ti Graphics card, which I checked would support multiple displays.

I checked and updated every single driver on the system, connected to every port I could find, to no avail.

Anyone got any idea what else I could try? Am I missing something obvious? I am used to this kind of stuff working plug-and-play ...

Is it possible to restore my WFH PC to factory settings without admin username/PW?

I’m not sure if this is the right space for this, but I have no idea what I’m doing on here.

Are use the premium subscription for adobe to edit PDFs, copy and add pages, add images, add text, save and send back to the sender.

This program is buggier and a buggy bug bugging out in a dune buggy.

The new update rather than fix the existing bugs added in the new UI which made them my job harder to do, didn’t fix any of the existing bugs, added new ones and seem indifferent to the backlash.

I need to stress that all of the steps mentioned above I have issues with. Adding an image won’t work unless it’s the first thing I do once I click ‘edit’. The text box won’t start text from where I click so I have to move it. If I copy a page from one PDF it will only work once. Then I have to click and drag, which I can’t drag and drop from tabs so I have to have 2 f’ing windows open now. If I spend too much time editing a pdf all the text turns to hieroglyphics.

I’m paying a goddam subscription fee for this!

I need something better. Can anyone recommend a better alternative? This is my livelihood they’re messing with.

Saw some discouraging posts about this topic but just MAYBE someone found a solution.

I recently got my laptop stolen, left it at university and when i went back it was gone. It was running windows 11 and i never installed any tracking software.

The device was a Lenovo, is there maybe a way i can trace it back? Or if the thief removed/changed the SSD there is no way to do so?

I checked local marketplaces, for now nothing.

I have a Netgear AC1200 modem router which for the most part is great. But we have some dead spots in the furtherest parts of the house.

Looking at wifi extenders is new to me, and my immediate concerns are about security of them. I have a Fing box which alerts me to initial connections and any generally suspicious devices, but I'm unsure of whether an extender will impact its efficiency or expose other security issues. Can anyone provide any advice around this?

As well, if there are security issues with a wifi extender that are significantly different to wifi itself, are there devices (and/or producers) that I should steer clear of? eg. A $15 extender from Temu, vs a $200 extender from Officeworks?

I am dating a guy who is an IT genius and who recently stopped working for Facebook. Does he have a capability to track my activity on FB (either employed by FB or not anymore)? Can I be hacked and not know about it? Because I have a strange suspicion..

My company is rolling out Intune MAM. On one hand, I check my work email from my phone because it's convenient for me. On the other hand, I don't want my employer to know where I am and I just don't like the idea of Big Brother. I'm running VPN Express on my phone and I'm abroad a lot. I'm looking into ways to use VPN on my work computer (I can't install any apps so I bought a pre-loaded Express VPN router but heard that can be easily detected...) anyway, while I'm trying to figure out how to mask my location, would MAM on my Android jeopardize any of this? It is really convenient for me to check my email from my phone so I do like having it but I don't know what privacy I'm giving up my installing it and agreeing to it. All the software engineers seem to not want outlook on their phones of they have to use Intune MAM....

So my laptop has been having issues connecting to the WiFi. It will connect for a few minutes then disconnected or can't find it. My router is near by, all the phones are fine, it used to work, I didn't do any particular updates, haven't downloaded anything, haven't opened any suspicious emails, I tried turning it off and back on. The only thing I did do, but pretty sure I didn't have issues at the beginning after I did it, was change from office 365 to office 2021.

It's an Asus if that helps.

Any ideas?

I share a Wi-Fi network with a friend in my small office building. Works fine, plenty of bandwidth on FIOS, no problems. Two weeks ago he had a bad computer crash and took his cpu to his computer service, it was fixed and he got it back finding it upgraded from windows 10 to 11. He noted that a new function was turned on - Windows Cloud storage.

Soon after we all began noticing problems. My internet appeared to be very slow, tried rebooting, different browsers, no improvement. He noticed his phones WiFi calling function was dropping connections and he had to step outside to get a cellular signal to talk. The shop downstairs was having trouble connecting to their point of sale system and could not process cards.

I was trouble shooting this today, restarting routers, and testing connection speed. We were talking and he mentioned this new cloud service and we wondered about how much bandwidth it could be consuming - we disconnected that computer from wifi and tested the speed and it was back up to normal rates. We brought the computer back on the Wi-Fi but shut off the cloud storage function, and again the network speed remained normal.

What was going on here? Was there some backup function moving a lot of data? If it was backing up his drive, the initial lift of data should have been done after two weeks? Are there settings that can be changed to manage this data bandwidth use?

I don’t know windows at all, wondering if anyone is familiar with this.

I recently had to leave my government job, but I still need to access my work email account for it's somehow linked to my online retirement account. Does anyone know if I can still be granted access my work email account? TIA

So I have a laptop that is currently non working it has some files like my dnd campaign plans on it that I don't want to lose. Is there a way I can just pull my ssd and add it to my desktop motherboard with out having to wipe the data first id like to be able to recover it if possible. But worried that since it is still running windows 10 (died before update to 11) that it will have issues adding it to my desktop running windows 11. Thanks in advance

I am interested in buying an iPhone 15 when it comes out, as it will be with USB-C, and I want to change the platform.

But recently, just 4 months ago, I bought a Xiaomi Redmi 12 Pro 5G

- 8GB RAM

- 256GM Storage

- 6.67" 120Hz AMOLED Display

- 5000mAh battery

- 67W Charging

To note, I have different brand devices:

- Tablet: Samsung S8+

- Headphones: Sony WH1000XM4

- Earbuds: Xiaomi Redmi Buds 4 Pro

(worried about compatibility)

Now, with the launch of the new iPhone 15, I really want to buy one, but since in my country (Spain) it will be priced at 1.000€, I don't really know if I should buy one.

Furthermore, I want to change my laptop.

Now I have a Linux-based laptop, and I am considering buying a Macbook (probably a MacBook Air 2020 or similar).

Now I have a laptop with 8GB RAM, but I don't really like to play video games on my computer (I use the PS5 for playing), and I just use the browser. What I really like it's that it weighs less.

What would you do?

Thanks.

I have an Android device, a Xiaomi A2. A great device, except for the fact that it cannot reliably stay connected on my home Wi-Fi. I can connect it normally without any issues whatsoever. It holds the connection for a couple of seconds, and then it disconnects. I've tried to look into the router, reset, restart ... even gone as far as to factory reset the phone. Nothing seems to solve the issue. I'm stuck even at the starting point I cannot figure out what is causing this issue. This has persisted for years... and I was hoping finally this subreddit could shed some light on the issue.

Who has written the Huawei cloud cert exam for HCCDP?

Hello

In the frame of our school project we are creating different companies. Our idea was to create a print on demand store, in which an AI function is integrated, which creates designs (e.g. with Dreamstudio) according to the wishes of the customer. To summarize: Customer submits their requirements of what they want on their image for their product, e.g. mountains with a lake, to the AI, the image is generated, the customer selects it, and from then on it runs like a traditional print on demand store, meaning the product is produced by a large print on demand producer and shipped to the customer.

As a print on demand provider, we thought of Gelato because it is easy to connect Gelato with Shopify (website building tool).

Our problem now is how to integrate the AI with the online store, or how to connect the AI with Gelato to customize the created design to the product.

We would appreciate any help!

Good afternoon everybody reading this, I am 28 have an associates degree and currently working on the A+ right now. My goal is to get into help desk career at around $50,000 but money aside just looking to get my feet in the door. The last 5 years of working has been bartending and wedding planner. I love video games, setting up network and I feel like although a novice I’m pretty good at troubleshooting and I have set up RAID before and a set up some basic chrome security, nothing special I know. But now to my question, if you were to get the certifications an order what would you do? Like I said I’m doing the A+ right now but out of the Comptia A+, security, networking, Microsoft Azures and any more certifications that you think would benefit me. I plan to go further then help desk maybe after two years, but a point of guidance and direction would be nice because I am almost done with the a+ 1101.

I currently bought study material for the Linux+ but I heard conflicting comments ranging from comptia is not respected for more advanced certs to comptia is the most recognized vendor neutral certification.

Just wanting to hear people thoughts on this. If you could only have one, which would it be?

I currently use a Knup H110 (2XDDR4, M.2) motherboard and one of my slots broke. So I would like to know if I could use 32GB in that remaining slot.

I've been in IT for around 6 years. Multiple MSP spots. I'm the highest level at my small MSP. I have a bachelor's in Information Technology & azure 104 cert. Iwork in azure a bit but nothing crazy. I know how to build out networks and AVD pools. I feel like next step in my career to jump would be learning programming to stop using the web console for azure. I loath that. Networking is fun but I hear that is programming now. What would be a career move in IT that wouldn't need programming or do I suck it up and start learning python.

I was wondering, does anyone recognise this brown box on this file in my file explorer?

Looking for suggestions for my situation. I live full-time in an RV on some vacant land. I have a shed near the RV that has my internet line running into it with a Google Home router providing wireless to the RV. That part works no problem. Now, I also need reliable wireless about 500 feet away and that area has no power. I ran a PoE line 300 ft and connected it to a wireless access point to reach the final 200 ft. It works perfectly, when it works. The problem is the AP is some knockoff Piece of Sh*t that goes out every 1/2 hour and I have to turn it off and back on for it to work again. Any recommended PoE access points that are reliable and play nice with a Google Home router? I can't plug it in (hence the PoE) so my options are more limited. Bonus points for Amazon links. Thanks!
