I spilled liquid in the bag where I carried my Helios 300 laptop. When I turned it on, I saw the stain you see on the screen and that one USB port wasn't working. I disassembled the laptop and cleaned everything I could with alcohol. I also opened the screen and cleaned inside, but the stain keeps reappearing. What can I do? Is the damage permanent?
Is making this whistle noise, now my scared

Idk how this happened last night when I turned it off it was fine could it be because a heavy bag was on top it like my laptop was inside a bag and my roommate placed her bag on top of my laptop bag when i slept ig or i think something got in the way while closing it last night i don't remember exactly i was sleepy and cant really recall and is it repairable what should I do? How much it will cost
This is my hp envy x360 laptop and its screen is coming off, does anyone know how to fix this?
I tried everything like Alt+Enter, Press & Hold Windows + Left, Right, Up and Down on Arrow & even Windows + P and can’t seem to get it to full screen. What should I do?
Like honestly, it's the first step when you purchase a new laptop or even if you factory reset your device. Why such an annoying feature that only minority can benefit off be that easy with most vital keys like SHIFT?
Or the other useless holding shift for 5 seconds to enable another accessibility feature I don't recall..!
I tried shining a flashlight onto the computer but it seems like nothing is showing up.
Hi! First off, my computer skills is 0. So i'm hoping you guys can help me out.
I'm having issues with my computer from 2019. Since i bought it, my computer can't handle games at relatively "good" graphics. Is it normal that these specs can't handle for example WoW retail and Guild Wars 2 with decent graphics? What can be the issue?
I've been saving up for this PC that was recommended to me a few months ago and I'm pretty close to it, but I've always been wondering if this is a good price for this computer or if there's better for similar
This is the computer I'm looking at and I honestly don't know its power and am just asking if this is a good pc for gaming. For reference, I dont really play incredibly heavy games, but I want to have a pc that can handle some heavy games just in case I ever play some in the future
if there's any flaws with the components itd be cool for someone could point that out to me as well as any tips or tricks to set up my pc when I get one (I heard I have to use Bios or something but I'm gonna have to look into that)
thank you in advance
Hello,
I am currently seeking a laptop and am tired of using AI to help with suggestions. I’m not sure why I thought it was a good idea in the first place since it started hallucinating after 3 replies.
I am mainly looking for:
- Good battery life
- Can support multiple tabs
- Will last me a long time
- Still good if bought second hand
My primary uses will be for Law school (reading, writing, researching with multiple tabs) and working from home (supporting my business software for my current law firm)
PSA. I thought of the Macbook Neo but saw many people on social media say that the space is the equivalent to that of a phone. I am not tech savy so I’m not sure whether that is true but I am also open to someone debunking this for me if this is the right choice.
Thank you!

I have been trying to update my ASUS PRIME Z790-P WIFI motherboard due to my games crashing and getting a popup saying its out of date. I went to the products support page on ASUS’ website, I downloaded the latest BIOS, I extracted the zip folder and ran the BIOS RENAMER. The file renamed to “PZ790PW”, it is a .CAP file. I copied the file into a USB drive that is in FAT32 format. I go into my BIOS, I go to the EZ flash utility to apply the update, I click on the .CAP file from the USB drive, and it keeps giving me an error saying the file selected is not a proper BIOS. My USB is plugged directly into my motherboard, Ive tried downloading previous versions because mine is far out if date, ive looked everywhere for a solution and cant find anything. If anyone could please help!!!
Trying to install Temple OS on an old unused laptop. I've added it to the grub menu by using memdisk and using the Temple OS ISO from the official Temple OS site. On opening in grub, it loads this white text (pictured), makes a *really* loud beep sound, then does nothing. None of the keyboard buttons do anything.
After a bit of googling, it does the exact same thing but minus the loud beep. Here is the current grub menu entry:
menuentry "TempleOS" {
linux16 /boot/memdisk iso
initrd16 /home/user1234/isos/TempleOS.ISO
}
The laptop is running an intel i5 and boots in legacy Bios with secure boot off. There is no SATA port on the outside, but there is a disk drive so maybe I could try that? Random stuff: In bios settings, SATA has two options, ACHI or disabled. Trying to boot directly from usb boot drive failed many many times as it never showed up in boot options menu.
Does anyone know what the dealio is, or will it just not work? The laptop has a disk drive I could try?
Edit: I can't grammar
Hi sorry I’m kind of a noob when it comes to pcs but I just bought a new one off of Jawa from a seller but have kept the same monitor. I plugged it into my monitor and am using my old password and telling me it’s wrong. It won’t bring me to my Microsoft login and just makes me answer security questions but those are wrong too 😭. Idk what to do and I’ve tried troubleshooting and entering safe mode. Pls help !!
i have a ryzen 7, 32gb ram, nvme ssd. not a potato. bought it two years ago and it was snappy
after the last two major windows updates something changed. boot time is longer. random lag spikes that weren't there before. background processes eating cpu for no obvious reason. task manager shows nothing alarming but something is clearly different
i've cleaned up startup programs, checked for malware, reinstalled drivers. nothing helps
the annoying part is i can't prove it's windows because i didn't benchmark before the update. but the timing is not a coincidence and i've seen enough people say the same thing online that i don't think i'm imagining it
talked to two people at work who have completely different hardware and they said the same thing happened after the same update window
is this actually a known pattern with windows updates or am i just noticing normal background noise more than i used to. and if it is real does anyone actually have a fix that isn't "reinstall windows from scratch"
