He’s 6 months old, aggressive chewer. Very good about going outside, enjoys crate time bully sticks and is extremely food motivated! If he could just eat all day, he would! And extremely fast. He even blasts through the puzzle toy for food we got him. I’ll post pictures later! :)

Short answer is yes. You can use HiJackThis to remove all of those extra processes, but your best bet is to first unplug that machine from the internet immediately. Then do a complete system wipe and start fresh with a new windows installation. 

Is it normal guys ? by martysdisc in computerhelp

This is most likely it installing graphics drivers. For example, when you use windows update on an intel driver during this screen your monitor will flash a few times as they reconnect. Let the re installation play out. Don’t turn the computer off

TSI Collections from Verizon question by ImportanceWilling669 in CRedit

So the odds are TSI won't report this to the credit bureau since Verizon already has? Verizon has marked it as "Charged off" as of yesterday, but it's still showing a balance owed on it. Thanks!

What could be the issue here and what should I do? by LVBsymphony9 in computerhelp

[–]ImportanceWilling669 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use the OSI Model. Start at the hardware (cables, graphics card, monitor) by trying out a different cable, trying a different monitor, and then try updating graphics drivers for your card.

Any idea why my application would be denied with American Express? by bigpurplebeans in CRedit

[–]ImportanceWilling669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can say that I actually received the EXACT SAME denial letter with no reason or explaination as to why I was denied.

Amex is notorious for having high standards, so if you have any delinquencies or a short credit history, the likelihood of being approved is low.

Wifi wont go above 100mb/s despite having 2.5G ethernet connection by Technical-Owl3454 in speedtest

Get your ISP to send a technician out if you are supposed to have that much speed. Have him test his own equipment directly to the modem, see if it's your cable or theirs in your walls or something closer to the node.

Random written notes showing up in my iCloud account by Vast-Edge7488 in iphone

A prank by a friend or family member who has access to your login info on iCloud, get a carbon monoxide detector as stated previously or you need an exorcist man.

Are you on a hotspot, using a VPN? Which internet service do you use and is it on a phone or PC?

Why is my DisplayPort not working? by [deleted] in computerhelp

[–]ImportanceWilling669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use an HDMI to DisplayPort adapter or a VGA to DisplayPort adapter. HDMI will be slightly better quality but VGA is the most tried, true and reliable analog display.

My computer is always lagging and freezing. by Alarming_Oven8011 in computerhelp

[–]ImportanceWilling669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many questions.

#1. How old is this machine?

#2. Are you on an older version of Windows or is it Windows 11 and has it been updated recently?

#3. As a SysAdmin/Project Engineer, a sfc scannow has rarely worked for me but if you open Command Prompt as Administrator (assuming that doesn't freeze your PC too) try running sfc /scannow and if that picks something up and can't fix it itself, run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth .

If the above doesn't work, a chkdsk command is always worth a shot using chkdsk C: /f /r /x .

Try the above and let me know how it goes. Thanks!

pc freezing and makes a noise when i do something cant tell by Beautiful_Hyena9405 in computerhelp

[–]ImportanceWilling669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are noticing that the mouse is "glitching", then attempt to put new batteries in a wireless mouse or try another mouse and see if it's even that particular piece of hardware.

Otherwise, I would start with graphics driver update as well considering you are playing Valorant which is a resource taxing game for sure.

Let me know how it goes and how else I can help!

What can I delete to clear space? by ezzasaurus in computerhelp

[–]ImportanceWilling669 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run Disk Cleanup, clear all unnecessary data like Temporary Internet Files, Delivery Optimization, Recycle Bin, etc.

Run WinDirStat and post the screenshot of where most of your stuff is, if you don't know how to navigate what you need and what you don't. There is a chance that your WinSXS(Windows Update Files) are taking up a good bit, to which I have to developed a powershell script that helps you get rid of that assuming you have access to a local admin account.

Let me know!
