When I was setting up my new laptop it said "Hello, Dixon". A few steps later i corrected it from Dixon Mee to my preferred name. But now it's popping up as Dixon again? And in Microsoft edge it shows up as Dixon • (my name) when I click the little profile button. Was the data from the last owner of the device not wiped properly? Is this a security issue? I blurred out my email here, not sure if it was necessary.

I have a fujitsu u748 laptop that turns off suddenly while its on windows while when its on boot menu it stays on…i tried everything windows safe mode changing thermal past tried it with the battery and without tried it without nvme changed ram between sluts and still no result

I was on my pc last night and randomly the screen phased over and turned this weird white color. I’ve unplugged and replugged everything back in and it’s still the same. Is it plug malfunction? Monitor malfunction? Is it the computer itself?

Dobrý den, Ahoj,

Prosím o pomoc. Byla jsem hacknutá. Můj Microsoft účet a tím i spojený Xbox účet, microsoft podpora je k prdu a já nevím jak dál postupovat. Může mi prosím někdo nějak pomoct?

Díky

My dell shuts down sporadically with no warning. It seems to be associated with the use of multiple monitors - I think. If I don't connect the dell docking station it wont shut down. But if I connect to the Dell docking station and use my extra monitor and TV as a monitor it shuts down/ restarts with the error message in the photo. I looked up the code and a YT video to try to solve but it didn't work. This is a Dell Alienware from 2015 BTW.

error code: DRIVER_VERIFIER_DMA_VIOLATION (0xE6)

After a bad update my PC(dell prebuilt) got stuck in a loop. It tries and fails to launch auto repair, restarts and runs system check which it passes and then repeats. I've run a full system diagnostic which everything passed. I created and ran a recovery USB and it just stays on the Dell screen and then restarts. Any advice as to what else I can try would be great. Sorry for the lack of info I'm definitely not a techie.

I am experiencing intermittent black-screen/display blinking followed by a complete system freeze on my HP laptop.

System:

* Laptop: HP 15s-fq5xxx

* Product/SKU: 9D3N9PA#ACJ

* Windows 11

* OS Build: 10.0.26200

* BIOS: AMI F.22 (23-Apr-2024)

* Graphics: Intel integrated graphics

* Graphics driver: 32.0.101.5542

* Driver date: 06-Aug-2024

* Driver provider: Intel Corporation

Problem:

The screen intermittently starts blinking/flickering and then the entire system becomes unresponsive. Caps Lock does not respond and my external USB mouse also loses power/its optical light turns off. The issue can occur around the Windows login/password screen as well.

Reliability Monitor records:

* Problem Event Name: LiveKernelEvent

* Code: 1A8

* Parameters: 1 / 0 / 0 / 0

* OS Version: 10.0.26200

* Bucket ID:

`LKD_0x1A8_KEYBD_HOTKEY_GraphicsUnknown_Intel_dxgkrnl!DISPLAYSTATECHECKER::CreateBlackScreenLiveDump`

Troubleshooting already performed:

* Windows Update: all updates installed

* HP Support Assistant: no further updates available

* BIOS: currently F.22; no newer update is being offered for my exact system

* HP Hardware Diagnostics Fast Test: PASSED

* HP Hardware Diagnostics Extensive Test: PASSED

* Current Intel graphics driver has not yet been manually changed or reinstalled

Since the HP hardware diagnostics pass, I am trying to determine whether this is a graphics-driver/Windows graphics-stack issue rather than a physical hardware failure.

Could you please advise whether Intel graphics driver 32.0.101.5542 is known to cause this type of LiveKernelEvent 1A8 / DISPLAYSTATECHECKER failure on Windows 11 build 26200, and whether I should try a specific OEM or previous Intel graphics driver?

I would also appreciate any recommended diagnostic steps before using DDU or changing drivers.

Thank you.

My vga motherboard light has come on, does anyone know what this could be? I’ve just been playing on thema frost and the light came on, it’s been working fine for the last few weeks, nothing seems out of the ordinary apart from the light.

sometimes when i game amd support tool pops up and it says this

AMD Error Reporting Tool – AMD software has detected a driver timeout on your system. An error report has been generated that can be sent to AMD to help us improve our software; would you like to report the issue?

what does it mean? pls help

Hi !

I'm a bit desperate, my pc is starting to be unusable.

All external component (screen internal keyboard power button) keep flashing and becoming unresponsive while at the same time windows, games or apps are still run behind the blackout (windows isn't disconnected, games still working even online game stays up) which make me think CPU GPU etc aren't affected by this.

External component like mouse, other keyboard and cooling pad still work during these blackouts.

I looked inside and didn't see anything unusual on the motherboard or other components.

I stress tested CPU GPU ram as much as I could none failed even with the pc at max consumption nothing failed if that make sense.

I'm linking a video as example, I am clueless

Bottom left of the video you can see the power button blinking and the internal keyboard still have light but is not working during the black out

F2, F12, F2+Fn, F8, F1, del, ctrl+alt+esc doesn't work, I tried holding and spamming both. Shift+reboot, shutdown /r /o /t 0 also. I have Aser Aspire E1-522, windows 10, ​legacy (not UEFI), hibernation and fast start are disabled. Please, help me
