Able to "log in" on MBP but then nothing loads and it restarts

So bit of background, I noticed that browsing on Chrome, opening new tabs to websites, new page, settings would always result in a crash. I wasn't able to do any browsing without either quitting chrome and starting it up again, or restarting the mac altogether.

At this point Firefox would also take ages to load sites, and respond when I'm typing sites into the address bar and appear with the big spinning ball of death. But then it would eventually respond again.

This happened many times over the past few days and normally a restart of the mac would make things dandy again.

Kept happening, so decided to reinstall Chrome. It would uninstall fine, I used AppCleaner, but reinstalling using the dmg came up with two errors, "no such package" and "bad signature" (or something along those lines, can't reemmber the exact wording).

Thought I had some sort of mac malware/virus, so tried BitDefender from the App Store telling me everything was ok.

So still without Chrome, (and now without Videostream for Chrome (an add-on) and Chrome Remote Desktop, as I uninstalled these), I decided to do a restart to see if that would fix things.

Now on bootup, I can login fine, it accepts my password, but then the loading bar appears and nothing loads, and the mac restarts.

Any ideas guys? I have checked Disk Utility already and everything is fine and I don't seem to have any Time Machine backups on the MBP itself, it just says "Searching for backups" for ages :(

EDIT: MBP 2015 15" i7 16GB RAM, Running latest macOS Sierra 10.12.5

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
