Description of problem

My monitor is a GN246HL. The issue I'm having is that when I run it at 144Hz, a popup shows up saying I need to use the cable provided (which I do not have).

The monitor runs at 144Hz perfectly fine, except for that annoying pop up.

I am using an active DVI-Display port cable that I purchased off Amazon from Tripp Lite.

If it weren't running at 144, I would assume a pin was bent or that the cable was defective, screenshots provided:

Yes

Date of purchase

Cause/Steps to recreate the issue

Switching between 60Hz and 144Hz in Nvidia's control panel will recreate this issue for me.

What I've tried so far to resolve the issue

Switching between both monitors and the 3 Displayport slots on my GPU.

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
