everytime I want to use my password and log in its '' we send you a code to another email to verifiy'' or go on the auth app and verify or we sent you a text to verifiy.. I am certain I have forgotten some passwords due to this crap but you never have to enter them instead your forced to do all this other crap you didnt want to do.. I just moved to another andriod phone and setting up outlook made me feel like I wanted to break the phone...then its forcing me to use passkeys

anyone had this? my CPU usage is fine but as soon as I load up a game via steam like RL all of a sudden im in the game im lagging hard I go out and see in task manager chrome is taking all the CPU and nearly all the RAM... only does this when I start to game lol

Hi guys im after a 2.5g usb ethernet adaptor but willing to go 5g if its needed to avoid the 2.5g problems

since people said nearly all are realtek I just wanted to make sure that are the 2.5g still having problems?

if so is my best option to go for 5g?

which I think is RTL8157

apparently ugreen 2.5g has a RTL8156BG which is meant be decent? im not sure, the other option im looking at is WAvlink 5g with pd delivery ( its cheaper than standalone 5g they sell )

tried to get a better price via phone, best price they offered was £56 p month for 250 internet / mix tv / landline I never use.

currently paying £70 a month, only 1 month left on contract

for over 20 years VM was the only provider offering over 30mb lol now so many are doing 1gig in my area EE / SKY etc etc

I think I went through a normal VM number because I couldnt get through the rententions line

any advice?

UPDATE : Thank you everyone, I managed to get through to the retentions line and got 1gig internet + netflix for £24! I removed the Landline / Mix TV as they wanted £11 for the Mix TV which was even less channels that we currently have definitely not worth it!

am I right in thinking on the app you can only see countries/cities and no indication of the server name or number, just says for example paris even though there could be 3 servers for paris you cant choose, it just randomly selects one and doesnt mention which one?

I'm the type of person to never update drivers or maybe I will see a driver saying needs to be updated and I will leave it for weeks months until I think okay Ill do it now because if anything is wrong they would of sorted it out... well

Lately I thought id do something different.. I updated so many drivers... now windows is so slow, some games crash.. everything is just a pile of...

it all started with intel driver update assistant.. it updated GPU / NPU + oneapi zero? / intel bluetooth and wifi ( this one crashed) and I had to reinstall again.. also some small windows update.. anyway.. my PC is basically trash right now.. just right clicking the desktop takes awhile, sometimes in browser it lags and makes beeps and goes.. games are laggy..or pause then go back to normal, my controller loses control lol and the mouse cursor pops up in the middle of rocket league game.. I have to do one click with the mouse and then its back to using the ps4 controller... lol

also speakers make a pop every time it connects or restarts now

im sure many people have experienced this? any ideas what to do?

I uninstalled tons of drivers but it keeps looking like there dont actually get uninstalled? like the intel graphics software I keep trying to uninstall but its still there but you cant open it

Im thinking to uninstall all drivers as best as possible, probs use DDU aswell, I might even uninstall MSI centre since I also updated that at the same time..

if nothing else works I think its time to reinstall windows as much as I hate to do so.. but it leaves me with little options lol im wasting alot of time right now trying to fix this.. gosh do I hate windows..

device : 8 AI+ Polar docked

sometimes the picture looks great has great backlight and looks wonderful and vibrant, amazing... other times it looks abit dull, although the settings are the exact same? i have it in energy saving but it goes nice a vibrant which isnt the character of energy saving

if I click on another setting like dynamic and back to energy saving then it finally sets energy saving, I thought maybe the TV is on its own changing to dynamic mode but I manually selected it and while it does look good, it doesnt look as good as the other setting it keeps randomly going to even when energy saving it active

for context I have it connected to a PC with game mode on, V sync on, when it looks amazing I check the picture settings and see backlight on 100, brightness on 50, contrast 80, Color Saturation 50, sharpness 25 and dynamic backlight control is off, adaptive contrast is off

any idea why it keeps switching modes and having a mind of its own? im not even sure what mode or setting it goes to as it always displays energy saving mode

looking to upgrade from tp link archer c80, its good but had it too long would like an upgrade, realised its single core etc and could be causing issues, not looking to spend too much, looking for future proofing abit, some vpn stuff is a plus etc, dont care that much about wifi as long as its great at processing packages etc but decent wifi is still welcome

some routers caught my eye

tp link ax53 £49

asus RT-BE55 £69

asus RT-AX57 £77

asus RT-AX53U £59

leaning towards the BE55, any advice on which is the best?

thank you

is this normal?

When docked and under heavyish load the white led turned white/pinkish

wondering if the dock is supplying enough power to the Claw, im running 30w PL2 37w

dock is a lenovo gen 2 90w adaptor, but most likely barely 60w to the unit, not sure on that but thats what google says it would provide

if so which one have you found useful?

that also takes advantage of the shared GPU/NPU Ram?

does anyone know the ethernet port adapter used by MSI?

is it realtek or Intel, no info online, for anyone who has one you can check network settings in windows or in device manager it should mention,

also how good is the MSI one vs something like Ugreen?

thing I like about MSI it has 100w adapter with it, the Ugreen you have to buy stuff separately etc

I think I have some sort of throacic outlet.. anytime my neck builds up pressure I get eye pressure and a bunch of floaters.. my vision has tanked since having these symptoms...
