    Possible hacking


    Hi, I keep getting texts from microsoft with a verification code, 5 in the last 24hrs. I haven't signed into anything I'd normally get a verification code for and now I've had a phone call that I didn't answer, but when I looked up the number, it seems to be microsoft trying to do the verification via call instead.Clearly someone is trying to access one of my accounts, but I have no idea what they're trying to access.Is there a way to find out what account the verification attempt was for so I can change my password.Many thanks

    :)

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    I received a message when I signed on to my computer that I was possible hacked and personal information retrieved. Was given the following number to call 800-364-7125. Is this a scam?
