I'm having a big problem trying to install Windows 10 on my computer. I'm getting an error right at the beginning of the install process that reads "A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB, or Hard disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD, or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now.". The pane in the background does not show what device it it trying to load a driver for, so I have no clue whatsoever what it is looking for. The computer I am trying to install this on had Windows 10 on it once already (so I know that Win10 is compatible with this com Continue reading...

After upgrading from Windows 10 1903 to 22H2 (still on 10) I started having problems with searching for files on my system, I use the normal Windows search and there's some bug or something. The thing is, when I search for some files, say in downloads, the file type shows up fine, like in the first screen shot, but when I enter any file type into the search, it shows up with a completely different type of file name (WMP11.AssocFile.WAV). Here are some examples, when I search for wav files, mp3 and jpg, they all display differently, I know it's not critical but it confuses me and I often get co Continue reading...

windows 10 Locked out of my laptop after BIOS update, PIN erased
by Guest Chris Diyco- 0 replies
- 9 views
I've seen this asked many times, but I can't find a solution. I bought a laptop in 2021 for a single purpose. I only use it a dozen times a year. When I bought it, it had me create a microsoft account and set up a PIN. The laptop is rarely on the internet and it kept telling me I had updates that needed to be installed. So I made the mistake of finally doing the updates. This included a BIOS update apparently. After the update, it tells me my PIN has been wiped out and I have to reset it. I tried to log into my microsoft account, but I don't have the correct password. It eventually locked me o Continue reading...

I have 2 LG monitors I would like to connect to my Windows 10 desktop. The backs of the monitors have a VGA port and another white pin port.I connected the first monitor using VGA to VGA blue 15-pin cable. It is working fine. Unfortunately, I only have one VGA port on the back of my desktop so for the second monitor I have to use a VGA to USB3 cable. I am getting the picture but the resolution is very large and I cannot get it to look like monitor 1. I also get an error saying the port on the back of the desktop is not a 3.0. I went into my device manager to ensure it is a 3.0 USB port. I Continue reading...
