Speccy Link

N/A

Description of problem

When running multiple instances of a game, namely EVE Online, my screens will freeze. Mostly this will happen when Aero styled windows features like alt tabbing or preview when mouseover the taskbar and it will also not always do it. Altering settings to run at all low for least performance impact makes no difference. This also happens when I try to run other games like WoW in conjunction with EVE but in instances like this, it only seems to be when I try to run those games on separate monitors displaying simultaneously.

When this issue began

Within the last 6 months

Recurring issue

Yes

Date of purchase

N/A

Under Warranty

Yes

Cause/Steps to recreate the issue

Running multiple instances of games or more than one game at a time

What I've tried so far to resolve the issue

Rolled drivers, updated drivers to beta, updating to signed drivers, changing video settings on those games for less performance, running memtests on GPU which have passed, tried to run logs for EVE which have come back nothing indicating it on its own isn't the cause of the issue. Disabled Xbox game functionality in windows

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
