Chrome issues with XPS 15 touchpad

Hey r/techsupport, I have been experimenting with a bunch of browsers for quite a while. I have been switching between opera, microsoft edge, and chrome for the past few months and am trying to make up my mind on which one to use primarily. I loved using chrome on my older MacBook Pro because of the nice, smooth scrolling. When I upgraded to a dell xps 15 the scrolling in chrome compared to microsoft edge had a noticeable difference because of issues with microsoft's precision touchpads. Microsoft edge feels super fast and has almost instant response. I have researched this all over the internet and cannot come to a conclusion as to why chrome has this atrocious scrolling on a windows precision touchpad compared to a mac touchpad. I know windows touchpads aren't that good but that doesn't explain why edge is so responsive. I really liked using chrome before because I use google docs and drive and youtube all the time and would like to continue to use the easy account management chrome has. Opera's scrolling is better than in chrome but nowhere near like microsoft edge. I have tried all the scrolling extensions for chrome like smoothscroll and a few others. I have also tried messing around in chrome:flags and I cannot get the same scrolling experience as I get in microsoft edge. I do not need to use chrome for the extension support as I only use adblock and edge has an adblock extension and opera has a built in adblock. So, is it worth sticking with chrome and dealing with the atrocious stuttery, slow scrolling? Or, is it worth switching to edge for good and leaving chrome behind me?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

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
