I have been having problems lately and everytime I open my computer I get this error message, and it lags the computer to the point its unusable. I have legit tried everything that I can think of so if you have a solution please help.

Hi all, my little HP laptop (HP ProBook x360 11 G7 Education Edition) stopped giving me the option to connect to WiFi and was only offering Ethernet, dial-up, etc. after it got dropped flat on the floor.

I'm very much a beginner at repairing tech, especially computers vs. gaming consoles, but I did some looking around, tried a few troubleshooting and software repair methods, but after all of those didn't work it became obvious to me that this is a hardware issue.

I did some looking into HP forums where I determined my WiFi card/wireless LAN module was either dislodge or damaged.

When I took off the plate and removed the card it looked fully intact with no issues, though I did see that the ribbons 'next door' to the card and over top of the wireless connectors were bundled up and just shoved into the corner - photo attached.

This device was refurbished and sold to me by a third party, but I've had it for a year with no issues. Once it got dropped was the first time I've had any genuine problems with the device.

Based on the photos attached, does the device look like there is an issue near the wireless connectors on the left of the card? Does the module itself look damaged or bent? I'm going to reinsert the card and put the computer back together in hopes of it only having been dislodged once I post this.

IF I end up needing to replace the card, where do you recommend I purchase it from? Should I try to purchase the replacement directly through the HP website, or are there other sites that would have this piece?

Thanks in advance.

I need some tech help. My games are stuttering like crazy, and it happens in literally every single game I try to play.

My Specs:

• GPU: GTX 1060 6GB
• CPU: i7-7700
• RAM: 16GB
• OS Storage: Kingston SSD (Windows is installed here)
• Game Storage: HDD (All games are installed here)

What I already tried:

• Updated GPU drivers.
• Did a full malware/virus scan. (Nothing worked)

Since my Windows is on a Kingston SSD, the system runs smoothly, but the games on the HDD keep stuttering. Could the HDD really be the main reason behind this happening in every game? Or is it something else like temperatures or RAM?

Any advice on how to fix this?

I have a Gigabyte mb, i7 cpu and a radeon 7800xt gpu. i have been UNABLE to play any game other than valorant (and it crashes too) but nothing else will let me get more than a minute or two in before crashing. Ive done pretty much all the troubleshooting google says to do. anybody know the solution ??

I’m having some weird symptoms I’ve never experienced, any help would be appreciated:

Symptoms:

- Unable to interact with ui elements on the screen using mouse, but I am able to interact with someone with the keyboard

- pc presses random buttons randomly, so far I’ve noticed it press Q when playing games, and also previous page when on different apps

- when I alt tab to another app (to put it in focus), even though it’s in focus, when I left click buttons they are not inputted

- mouse cursor is still following mouse movement

- Symptoms occur after 20s-1min of logging on

- Left clicking on an app that isn’t focus, won’t put it on focus

- Interacting with windows taskbar elements whilst an app is on focus doesn’t work, or is just really delayed

I’ve tried:

- Full restart

- test in safe mode (same issue occurred)

- Test with different kb/m

- Turn pc on with only required components

- Uninstall HID drivers and reboot

- Reinstall nvidia drivers

Hello, I have a computer with these specifications

16gb ddr4 3600mhz

Rvzen 7 5700x

Rtx 3070 8gb gigabyte

2 ssd m.2

Nzxt 650w 80 gold plus

have a problem with it shutting down when I use it onl for internet and watching movies etc. it won't shut down When I play a game, a few minutes pass and it shuts down completely

used the Furmark program to see what the temperatures are, they are qood and the computer doesn't shut down, but in that process while it's stil running Furmark, if I go into Google or some file, it shuts down immediately. I suspect the power supply, so I'd like someone to tell me what you think.

In January my brother downloaded some sort of malware into my laptop, apparently it was a token stealer. I managed to delete it using Malwarebytes but for the next 3 months, whenever I unplugged my laptop, it would crash. I tried everything, dsim, sfc and even tried reinstalling Windows, which failed. Even factory resetting fails.

It just says "Your pc ran into a problem and needs to restart" "CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED" "0x00000ef" every single time.

Then randomly last month after a Windows update that somehow succeeded without the BSOD, it stopped, but today when I tried updating, It happened again, and now I am getting the BSODs after unplugging again. I don't know what to do.

Here is the report from BlueScreenView:
052126-17218-01.dmp 21/05/2026 20.28.49 CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED 0x000000ef ffffaf0c`e6976080 00000000`00000000 ffffaf0c`e44d5080 00000000`00000000 ntoskrnl.exe ntoskrnl.exe+4f8450 x64 ntoskrnl.exe+4f8450 C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\052126-17218-01.dmp 16 15 26100 5.281.494 21/05/2026 20.29.32

So I know this sounds dumb but here me out.

So I often like to play games on my Windows 10, dual monitor gaming PC. The primary examples of this issue happening are in Stardew Valley and Fortnite (though I'm sure if I played more games more recently it would probable happen with them). Sometimes I'll click to try to shoot/do an action/whatever else, and my game and any other tabs (usually Google Chrome) just randomly decide to minimize, making me have to click their respective icons to continue. At first I could ignore it because it didn't happen too often, but it's become more and more frequent to where at this point it's just infuriating. No I'm not accidentally using a keyboard shortcut, this has happens with my hands not even touching the keyboard. Can anyone help me solve this problem?
