device manager

A couple days ago my Old Asus laptop got infected somehow. The wireless adapter is not working properly. When I go into the Device Manager, I get the big paragraph that ends with "(Code 52)". Pressing F8 during boot and then selecting "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement" works to get the...

Hello Debugging Gods, my two months old Acer R5-471T-57JD keeps crashing. I got it with Win10 installed but I guess it was updated as I found a Windows.old folder. I've already sent it in and the Motherboard was replaced. Now Memtest86 comes back clean, so I guess that's sorted out. Sfc/scannow...

Hi This has been bugging me since I started using Cortana. Well there is finally a fix that works, not by Microsoft but by someone named Michael Chourdakis at the behest of someone named Wilson Phillips on the Windows help web site. I tried it and it worked for me. Cortana now knows exactly...

A volume control pop-up box keeps appearing top left of my Acer laptop screen where it overlays everything. Nothing I have tried will disable it. Worse still it then sticks the speaker volume slider on 100%. I have uninstalled any likely associated bloat apps. It disappears if I restart, but...

Ran into this problem after the Windows 10 Build 10586 update. My USB mouse just quit working while the optical sensor light remained on. Looking in Device Manager I noticed I had a weird entry "Custom USB Device". Expanding that revealed "USB-C to Display Adapter". Sure enough this was my...

Yesterday I came back to my PC and tapped the keyboard to wake my machine up from hibernation. Went online to do some web surfing and got that "No connection" screen that you get when something is wrong. My first instinct was the reboot the router. Which i did, to no avail. Looking down I...

Hi guys, I'm new in the forum. I would like some help to resolve this problem. This summer I've reinstalled a Windows 8.1 copy on my Asus T100TA and managed to reinstall all the drivers from the Asus support page. However, since that day, my camera provides a BSOD when trying to run it, even if...
