  1. Something is wrong with my PC, how to fix it?


    Almost every time I do something, something breaks, and a fifth of my first monitorWindows apps, desktop, even screenshot stops responding to clicking. I cannot provide an image due to an issue. The Quick Settings button also becomes highlighted. These issues are only temporarily resolved by restarting my PC.

  2. my pc location is showing the wrong location

    I have the same issue. it lists our location at our old house we left 3 months ago.

    it's fine using our phones (which have internal GPS), but all our PC's are showing the wrong location.

    we have 1 on windows 10 and 1 on windows 11, both are wrong.

    they are wrong in edge and chrome.

    they are wrong in the weather apps and anything which uses the location.

    I have followed the common steps of setting the location, of refreshing dns, or ip, I've changed all entries to location I can find.

    even on websites to try to find a local branch, it suggests them near our old house.

    Have just spent an hour on the phone with our ISP (EE) who have nothing more to suggest!

  3. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
