  1. My computer randomly started showing gibberish letters.


    When I booted my computer, all my desktop application names, file names, even my time started showing gibberish letters. I don't know what to do, I googled lots of answers but none of them worked. I tried updating my graphics driver, updating windows, etc. I don't know what to do, sometimes if I boot up my PC, instead of showing gibberish letters, all text becomes invisible and my time disappears. Even control panel text would become invisible. I feel like there's no choice but to reinstall windows but at the same time I don't want to do this, but to me there seems to be no other way to fix th

    help. USB drive isn't assigned a drive letter.

    Any usb flash drive I plug into my computer isn't assigned a drive letter. The physical drive shows in the "safely remove hardware" but it doesnt show up in disk management. I have tried to populate the volume thru the safely remove hardware properties window and it does pop up in the list but it doesn't stay there. This isn't a format or assign a letter problem. It's more complicated then that. Maybe one of the services needed for usb drive management was disabled? Suggestions needed. btw external usb harddrives work fine.

    Windows 10 computer suddenly starts displaying windows and typing gibberish in them

    We have a Dell Alienware computer running Wndows 10 that will sporadically and randomly start bringing up windows and then typing gibberish in them. When this happens, the sound that it makes when plugging something into a USB port occurs. One time,
    it brought up a DOS window and started typing in my husband's uername, but usually it is something like 'wcczzzzzzccccccccc'. If he brings up his email, it will start typing gibberish on its own. He has a game he can't play because the computer will start
    randomly moving things around, or typing into available dialogue boxes. We have tried everything we could think of, including removing the dongle for the keyboard and trac ball and bringing down our home network, but nothing makes any difference. At first,
    we thought it had to be connected to the internet for the problem to occur, but this doesn't seem to be the case either. Rebooting may make it stop for a while, and sometimes it will go for days without happening. If anyone else has ever reported this problem
    before, I am unable to find it by an internet search. Any advice would be much welcomed. Will reinstalling Windows 10 resolve this?
