PC crashes every time i touch the tower, fixes itself when i power it off completely
Every time I even come near the tower, like plugging out a usb cable or accidentally bumping it with my foot, it goes into a black screen, but audio keeps working for a couple seconds before all output dies. Also, the fans keep spinning and all my RGB stays on. Rarely it does this without any contact (maybe dust?) I have a feeling it's a power issue but i'm not experienced enough to know Specs: Ryzen 5 5600x RTX 3070 32GB DDR4 3600mhz Asrock B550 Extreme 4 Deepcool LE240 AIO (half sure) Fedora Linux 43 (Kernel 6.19.10) or Windows 11 Pro (happens on both) Unsure what PSU i've got, it could hold off a Ryzen 3 2200g and RTX 3070 before i upgraded though33Views0likes1CommentIs the Windows 10 upgrade still free to windows 11?
Just wondering if the free upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 still works in 2026. My PC is still on Windows 10, and I am trying to figure out whether I can move to Windows 11 without paying for a new license. Is the Windows 10 upgrade still free to windows 11? Did Windows 11 activate automatically with the Windows 10 license, or did Microsoft stop that? Also curious if there are any catches now, especially with hardware requirements. By the way, why my computer still does not receive the Windows 10 free upgrade notice to windows 11? I bought this PC 10 years ago. Thanks1.5KViews0likes8CommentsKonica Universal Print App
Looking for others that are using this app. It seems the app crashes weekly on various models (C300i with latest firmware). We can resume printing by logging in with admin access and re-enabling the app. We also see other issues like jobs printing (output produced) but not going to a completed state. These have been sitting like this for about 30 minutes. When this happens, we have to reboot the printer. We got nowhere working with our local support vendor. We're trying to get national support involved.2.1KViews1like19CommentsHow to stop the popup preview for taskbar icons ?
If I hover over a taskbar icon, I get a popup with a miniature view of the target page. This is very recent. I have no idea how I might have caused that. I haven't been in the registry recently. I use the "StartIsBack" app (AKA "StartAllBack"). It's an app that attempts to emulate the Win XP taskbar. I've been using it for about 50 years without problems.

I am having all kinds of Microsoft account validation issues over the past few days on multiple devices. As an example, just 5 minutes ago, I got a notification saying that there is a problem with my account and it asks me to log back into my Microsoft account. But the moment I try to logon I get this: On the other machines I had to spend at least an hour each time trying to sort this bologna out, and in the end I actually have no idea what actually resolved it. But the symptoms are a bit different each time. This stuff has got to get fixed. That error indicates there were "too many requests" but I have not been in front of this machine all day. I literally tried to logon one time and one time only, yet I get this rubbish.22Views0likes0CommentsWindows 11 Voice Access Toolbar Opens but Mic Button Does Nothing
Hi everyone, The Problem: Voice typing stopped working on my Win11 laptop (shows "disconnected" error). Friend has exact same model and Win11 version and theirs works perfectly. What I've Tried: Win+H opens the old toolbar, clicking mic does nothing. Switched to Voice Access (Win+U → Speech → On). Toolbar appears [attached screenshot]. Clicking the central mic button does nothing—no listening mode, no response. Checked Settings → System → Sound → Input: [Does the input bar move when you speak? Y/N – fill this in] Privacy → Microphone: Access ON, apps allowed ON. Privacy → Speech: Online recognition ON. Gear icon in Voice Access shows [what mic is selected? – fill this in]. Restarted PC, updated Windows—no change.18Views0likes0CommentsW11 (KB5079473) (26200.8037) Something strange when moving or copying file, see attached picture

I'm trying to find trustworthy sources for downloading a Windows 7 ISO in 2025, and I'm concerned about where to look. As support for Windows 7 has ended, I'm aware that finding a legitimate and safe Windows7 ISO download might be challenging. I'd like to ensure that the download is not only genuine but also free from malware or other risks. If anyone has experience or recommendations for reliable websites or platforms where I can obtain an ISO file for Windows 7, it would be greatly appreciated. I’m particularly interested in options that provide clear verification of the download’s authenticity, as I don't want to fall victim to scams or insecure downloads.I believe many others in the community might have similar concerns, so sharing any personal experiences or tips could benefit us all. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Update: I finally found a recommended tool that works fine for me called ISOMate Pro. It allows me to download different versions of Windows 7 ISO image files completely, the download speed is fast, and there are no ads or suspicious links! You can use it with confidence!229KViews19likes11CommentsCan't open Microsoft Edge

I'm experiencing an issue where my anti-cheat software is being flagged as a Trojan by Windows Defender on my PC, and I'm not sure why this is happening or how to resolve it. I've tried to reinstall the anti-cheat software, update Windows Defender, and run a full system scan, but the issue persists, and I'm looking for a solution to prevent Windows from flagging it as a malicious program.32Views0likes1Comment
