  1. Nope. I have not. I hardly know how to use that type of thing, never experimented with that type of thing.
  2. Yeah, no I don't have that. So do you think I should try and fix this, or upgrade to a better one that for sure will be able to handle what ever I throw at it.
  3. Yes, I am running the factory installed windows 10 from dell. And yes, I do have antivirus protection. And no, I do not have any cryptocurrency mining software.
  4. WMI Provider host is at 40% Windows explorer is at 33% Sigar_port is at 11% The rest are at 0-0.3%
  5. I'm getting this weird thing with my Dell Inspiron 15 5559 laptop - I've had it for over a year now (since oct 2016) and its been running just fine. I mainly program on in (web development) and I do normally have around 7-10 windows open at once. I also edit videos for my youtube channel (@1080p res) and then it gets fairly warm, not surprising. But recently for school I have been learning how to cad using Autodesk Inventor Pro 2018. Now... I'm not sure if its just a coincidence that since I've started CADing its been getting really warm or not. I've been really concerned.'' Yesterday I was using my laptop for some cad and programming, then when I had to go, I closed the screen and threw it into my backpack, went home, then about 1/2 an hour later I pulled it out again. When I pulled it out, it was EXTREMELY HOT. Like, HOT to the touch. I could hardly even hold it. So I turned it off, took out the battery and expelled all the power out of it, and let it cool. 10-15 minutes later when it was cool, I turned it on again and it seemed fine, but when I went to check in task manager, I saw that the cpu was at 100%, the hardrive was at 100% and the memory usage was at 7 of 8gb. This was on idle, not natural right? So im not really sure what to do. I dont know if I should get a new and better laptop, or just try and fix this. Any ideas?
  6. I'm getting ready to build a PC (my first tower PC) and I want to know -- 1) What are the chances that something will go wrong (aka part failure to work) 2) What do you do when that happens 3) How risky is it to build a pc 4) Is it possible to spend say $750 on a PC (like i'm going to) and nothing works at all and you totally waist your money 5) Does Newegg have a good return and or refund policy? Thanks.
  7. Hello, for the past couple of years I have been saving up for a gaming/editing pc. The time has come and I'd like some advice on my build. Here is the list of what I currently have picked out If you could just give me some tips, helpful suggestions or anything of that sort will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. (Upgrades I plan to add in the future when I get more money: SSD, AIO Cooler, 1 more 8gb ram stick.)
