I have plugged a usb stick into my router's usb port and installed some programs on it, so i can access them from anywhere on my network, however, some of these programs will not run, stating that "There is not enough free memory to run this program". does this refer to my router's RAM or something? my PC is plenty powerful to run GPU-Z, i'm pretty sure. what's even weirder is that some programs i installed do run, such as FurMark and HeavyLoad, for example. Heavyload did say that it detected being run inside a VM, so maybe my router is emulating these programs or something? anyway, i'd love if someone could help me solve this issue.

i've been trying to turn on Core Isolation and it's telling me that i have an incompatible driver. i tried looking for it in device manager and through the command line and found nothing. the driver file is "VAud_VDM.sys" and it's made by a company named "e2eSoft". from a quick google search i found that it's a virtual sound card. does anybody know how (and weather or not i should) delete this driver?

this is a follow-up to a previous topic of mine. I searched aliexpress for a 5Ghz wifi adapter and found the 7265hmw. I just wanted to make sure: is it gonna be compatible with my laptop? it's an Asus x541uv, which currently has the Realtek rtl8723be (pcie version). other 5Ghz adapter recommendations will be appreciated too

might be one of those, i didn't check the connector type on my model.

I have an old laptop (Asus X541UV) and it keeps disconnecting from my wifi network. my brother's laptop has been doing that as well, so I figured that the problem might be the fact that both laptops only support 2.4Ghz wifi and not 5Ghz. my question is: is it possible to change the internal wifi adapter from the 2.4Ghz one to a 5Ghz one (dual band)? I'd plug in an external one, but this laptop's model only has 2 USB type A's and one type C, and one of the type A's isn't working, so I don't want to connect an external one. recommendations for 5Ghz wifi adapters will also be appreciated

well i dont know weather that's true or not, but my Gigabyte ga-x79-ud has this option and i doubt that it supports any Turbo Boost 3.0 CPU's.

yeah, just a light oc though.

my motherboard has a feature that allows for per core overclocking. also, yeah, i know that it's basically meaningless but why not get as much performance as possibleif you can?

hey all, i was watching linus's video about the ryzen overclocking software and noticed that the program he uses tells the user which cores are better and which are worse. I was wondering if anyone knows about a core benchmarking tool for intel cpus? I have an old i7 4820k and it's a bit slow for todays standards so i want to get all the performance i can get from it and it'd be easier if i knew which cores can overclock better.

I'm planning on getting a new SSD for my brother's old laptop to bring some life back into it. i tried plugging an SSD and the battery seemed to drain faster. i know that SSDs generally consume less power, but i just want to be sure. he currently has a very basic 2.5'' 5400RPM HDD inside it and i'm thinking about upgrading it to a Kingston A400 or a Sandisk SSD Plus (both 240GB). will i see a significant drop or improvement in battery life?

so i have this old PC and it worked fine just a little bit ago but now it doesn't POST with no beep codes. i tested each of its components and they all seem to be fine, so i'm left with either the mobo or the cpu being the problem. now it has one of the later core 2 quads (cant remember what model) and unfortunately i do not have another mobo that supports it, so i cant really test it by placing it in another mobo, however, i DID try it in one of the motherboards that do not support it and it at least showed a message saying "this motherboard does not support this cpu". that should mean that it detects the cpu model number, right? which means the cpu is working, right? is my mobo the problem here?

hello, so i have an old computer with a Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3R board in it. it always had some problems with detecting RAM channels, but today i pulled it out of the closet it was sitting in and decided to pop in some more ram into it. i fired it up and for some reason i only had 4GB (instead of 8). so i looked in the bios and it shows this: looks like it detects all 4 slots, but disables slot 3 and 4. i played around with the amount of ram (number of sticks inserted) and swapped slots and what i found is that it will always have only 2 active slots, regardless if they're of the same channel, and the slots will always change when i remove sticks. in short, my motherboard only allows 2 slots to work at one time. EDIT: experimented with it a little more and discovered that slots 1&2 are the only ones that get disabled when slot 3&4 are populated and vice versa. does anybody know why this happen? and how do i fix it??

alright, so i solved the problem: i set the bios to "fail safe mode" and tried booting to my installation disc. this time, instead of a blank screen for all eternity, it showed an error code: 0xc0000225. i looked it up and didn't find much except that it's a generic error code' however' i did find a person who suggested turning on IOAPIC in bios, and it seems that before it was disabled, however, with fail safe mode on, it was enabled. the problem was that the MPS version (something that is only available when IOAPIC is on) was set to 1.1, and my computer needed version 1.4, so i set it to that and viola! everything works like it should again my guess it that mps (MultiProcessor Specification) 1.1 only supports 32 bit processors, and thus forced my processor to run on 32 bit mode or something, hence it wouldn't run 64 bit apps, hence it won't install 64 bit OS's. also, one my DVD rom seems to be going bad, so i swapped it just to be sure.

The activation servers for windows XP have been shut down, so the internet option isn't gonna work... the phone option should work, although sometimes when you change a lot of hardware parts, windows XP just "forgets" that you have ever inserted an activation key, and the code that you dial in to the phone service is based on that key, so what it currently gives you is a generic code that does not exist. your best bet is to try to enter a different valid key if possible and then try the phone service once again. you might also try to enter oobe (out of box experience) mode, although i'm not sure if you can do that without having access to windows explorer. you might be able to use it through a windows PE disc.
