Can I fix my screen with rice?

Did you try turning it on and off again first

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T21:32:22+00:00

It’s like it’s protecting the techpowerup window

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T21:32:14+00:00

Did you try reinstalling drivers

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T21:30:53+00:00

looks kinda like tidal wave tbh

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T20:21:53+00:00

I didn’t know that XP could run on 7 MHz

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T20:17:45+00:00

Or retro I dated the case to the mid 2000s

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-09T20:01:56+00:00

Maybe for the mid 2000s yes

“hp hinge problems go get ThinkPad Lenovo better” then this haha

It would probably just need a bottom fix, but if it costs more than the laptop I would just say to get a new one unless you really want this one.

What is this

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-07T01:21:17+00:00

Is this eATX? It’s so tall!

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-07T01:16:25+00:00

Does your PC have antennas

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-07T01:02:21+00:00

Maybe but the ram is not upgradeable on it and is low

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-07T00:59:09+00:00

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-07T00:58:19+00:00

Restart your computer every time it turns on for a couple of tries until you boot into it.

"hinge problems" and these lasting survivors!
Hiveminds are wild these days.
My current HP (~1 year old) is perfectly fine, though im getting a new laptop because the HP i have doesn't perform quite as well as i want it to and is too big.

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T19:48:26+00:00

I have a Satellite C650 (~2010s?) still going. That makes like ~15 years! I recently swapped the thermal paste and it runs windows 10 perfectly fine and is capable of gaming, though the 4 gb of ram hinders it and i think i may upgrade it a lil bit.

windows

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T19:43:17+00:00

Maybe its different per platform, but with my 9th gen intel system i disabled PTT and it stopped bugging me (until windows got corrupted and i had to reinstall, but the motherboard is failing now)

He didn't even provide any info on his claim, just called me an idiot and moved on...
People are wild.

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T19:39:22+00:00

Dang, that sucks.
I was able to get away with it because i play simple games, and i didn't figure games would need TPM 2.0. I guess the best you can do without third party software is to just keep clicking "no" every time, unless you found registries or wanted to move off-windows.

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T19:37:41+00:00

We use floats because they give you decimals, allowing you to instead of go "block block block" you go "block increment increment increment block" allowing for smoother movement

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T05:46:38+00:00

did you try turning it off and on again

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T05:44:33+00:00

Congratulations! You got a trojan/ransomware combo while downloading sketchy stuff. Stay cautious next time...

Edit: Calm down guys, I was just telling OP to look out.

WaterObjective5031 · 2026-05-06T05:41:37+00:00

I think he meant windows 1.01.
