WIndows 11 WIFI Adapter has disappeared
Hello all, Just joined today as I am having a nightmare. Any advice is at all appreciated. Today my wireless adaptor completely disappeared. I loaded it up and there is no option to connect to a wi-fi adapter. I have: Reset the machine. Done a network reset. Used troubleshooting. Uninstalled the driver. Reset my system BIOS to factory settings. Completely re-installed windows. Downloaded the Intel drivers onto a USB stick and re-installed them. I have a Medion PP645-MD61361, it does not have an ethernet connection which makes things even harder. The Intel adaptor no longer shows in my device manager, it's completely gone. However a "Network Controller" has showed up in Other Devices but I can't update it with the intel drivers or the internet as I don't have access to it on that machine. Can anybody shed some light as to what I might have missed please? Thank you, Thomas

I have a neighbor who has an old HP desktop he wants to give to his 10-year-old Grandson to get him started on computers. I set the computer back to out-of-the-box settings and cloned the disk to an SSD. The problem I am having is finding a browser that still works on Windows 7. I have downloaded and burned to CD several that said they would work, but don't. Are there really one that still works on a 7 computer? I saw a couple that said will work, but needs Windows 7 with SP1, which is not available any longer. I see Windows 10 programs are still available, but I don't know if he wants to spend the $$$. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Why does Yahoo keep opening in Chrome Windows 11 computer?
Hi everyone, I'm experiencing a frustrating issue with my Windows 11 computer. For some reason, Yahoo keeps opening automatically in Google Chrome, even when I’m not trying to access it. This happens frequently and interrupts my workflow. I've checked my browser settings and extensions, but I can't find anything unusual. I’ve also cleared my browser cache and cookies, but the problem persists. Has anyone else faced a similar issue or knows how to stop this from happening? Thank you!Windows 11 CPU非対応を回避する方法ってありますか？
こんにちは。 最近、古いPCにWindows 11を入れようとしてるんですが、「このPCはCPUが非対応です」って出てインストールが止まっちゃいます。 ネットでレジストリをいじるとか、ISOを編集するとか色々見たんですけど、正直どれが安全で確実なのか分かりません…。 できればクリーンインストールじゃなく、Windows 10からそのままアップグレードしたいです。 実際にWindows 11 CPU非対応を回避する方法を試した方いませんか？ どの方法が一番簡単で、トラブル少ないか教えてもらえると助かります。 環境：i7-7700K / 16GB RAM / SSD 512GB よろしくお願いします！
