After hard-reboot, windows takes forever to start up, keeps freezing every few seconds, and all text is missing.

Hi, I left my computer running for about a week since I needed to convert several videos, and I finally restarted it the other night, due to performance problems while trying to play Left4Dead 2. While playing L4D, the PC started stuttering really badly, and eventually, explorer totally froze, and my desktop turned all white for a second. Finally, the game froze, and so did every other running app on the PC, but I was still able to move my mouse. I had to perform a hard-shutdown. This morning, I turned it on, and it froze for a while on the Windows 10 screen with the spinning loading circle. It took about 30-40 minutes, but the login screen showed up. It took about 10 more minutes to login, but now the operating system it practically unusable. Everything's executing very slowly, it freezes (including mouse movement) every few seconds, and worst of all, all of the text is gone. Desktop icons, window titles, right click menus, even task manager isn't showing any text, just blank interface windows. I don't know what to do, as trying to reset the PC using built-in diagnostic tools fails, and I kind of need to use it again by Monday, as I have class assignments I need to work on. Any advice for this very specific issue?

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
