[Windows] Acer Predator 15 experiencing issues after HP Printer tech connected remotely to PC to assist with printer installation

Occasionally my HP ENVY wireless printer fails to update and I have to have HP remotely connect to my PC to assist with a full re-installation. Typically this entails them ending a bunch of tasks and making tons of adjustments that I don't understand. This last time the tech connected to my computer, it took him 1 hour to make the changes and i had to give him a ton of administrator privileges in order to make changes. Now I am slowly noticing issues. First off, my NUM Lock key no longer shows an animation on my screen when locking and unlocking the numeric pad. This is a small inconvenience, but I have been dealing with it. The button still works, just doesn't show any sign of doing anything when pressed. In addition, I saw that he had disabled Steam. Being a gamer, that really agitated me, so i figured out how to enable the app so i could play games again. Third, predator sense doesn't work anymore. The app simply refuses to load. I click on it and then it animates like its going to start up, but nothing happens! I need this to work in order to adjust my processor speeds and to check my temperatures! The last time all of this happened, i ended up backing up my whole computer and reinstalling EVERYTHING from my recovery drive. I really dont want to have to do this again. Any ideas on how i can fix this? I am computer savvy, so explaining wont require much. I have searched my laptop for any signs of LogMeIn, which is the program I believe they used to connect with my PC and i have come up with nothing thus far. Also, my computer is only about 3 months old, so age shouldn't be a problem.

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
