I think we need more information. "Small" Dells often use proprietary supplies, or often notebook style power supplies.
Sure. I don't know what you are asking here. You say his power supply is gone, then ask if hanging the external drive "off the side" can get it...
If it shows connected but no internet, that typically means the network adapter is fine. Are other networked devices losing connection? I would...
If a USB hard drive, the enclosure is probably helping to suppress noise too. Also, many external USB drives use much slower drives than typically...
I don't know. If I understand the requirement correctly, this is not just a firmware issue. The motherboard must also have the necessary hardware...
Once again I am at a familiar crossroads. I built this machine for Windows 10 when W10 came out in 2015. Just as I did my previous machine for W7...
FTR, over the last 10+ years that I have run first Microsoft Security Essential with W7, and then Defender with later versions, Malwarebytes has...
Understand that could sure be a bunch of marketing malarkey too. But no doubt, in the 5+ years since, drive performance has improved and drives...
Motors always (and most electronics, actually) require more energy to start than to keep running. So it might, for example, consume .5A (500mA)...
Says who? "Max" does NOT mean that is how much it "should" take. That just means it "should" require no more than that.
Ummm, no. It says Defender "detected" trojan spyware. The trojan did not come from Defender. And that's a good thing. That suggests your security...
:( Nothing is perfect. You can always come back with a "what if" exception to the norm in an attempt to prove the whole point moot. It won't and...
That was true 20 years ago with XP, but not anymore with W10. Yes, it can eat up resources, but it has been totally re-coded to run way in the...
Understand hard disk performance degrading does NOT suggest the hard disk is starting to fail. I recommend you run Error Checking on the drive....
Note these are two different things. Disk performance indicates the current activity (reads and writes) or current data transfer rates. This means...
It doesn't. Never has. Something else was going on in your case. When you consider there are over 1 billion W10 systems out there, and each one...
Well, sorry. Hopefully someone else with more experience will stop by with some good advice then. Good luck and keep us posted.
Ummm, no! That did NOT "fix" the problem. It covered it up and exposed your computer to much greater risks! I recommend you enable WF again and...
I have no experience with RDP but I found this: Cannot Copy and Paste via RDP (Remote Desktop) Clipboard (bobcares.com) Hopefully, it will help.
I have seen this several times, and it eventually worked itself out on all but one machine - and that machine was in the Windows Insider program,...
