I've followed multiple guides on how to fix them but I'm at a point where I'm lost and need some help.Here are the DMP files as usually told dump files these are all from BSOD that I've had and could actually back up (the rest are missing due to me completely wiping the computer or the files being deleted.

Hello,My name is Liam and I have a MSI Katana 15 B13V VGK Laptop with Windows 11, version 24H2 installed on my device.A few days ago I started my laptop without doing anything strange and suddenly my Realtek drivers were gone.

So far I've only seen it affect Discord and Edge. The problem has existed ever since I updated to Windows 11 24h2.

When using Discord it appear almost every time I swap between DMs/server channels or when clicking on an image. Discord also sometimes completely freezes when I begin typing, the application is still functional (what I was typing appears when it unfreezes) but the entire UI freezes.Things I've tried:- Running "sfc /scannow" foundView the full article

So i just recently got this weird glitch on my screen where i couldn't click anything on a certain point on the screen. This invisible thing was moving to wherever on the right side of the screen but now that i scaled it up, it's not moving. I would like to know how to remove it and is it something to do with a game or graphics driver? I've already shut off all my games and tried ending tasks but it is still there.

After all this was completed I decided to install the SSD from my old windows 10 PC as an additional drive in the new one, most files remain intact, installed games were able to be scanned by steam and used without reinstalling, as well as many of the video files I'd made stored in my Videos folder within the Users directory.The only thing that I've noticed as missing is my entire pictures folder, which has a lot of stuff I've worked on, some of which I had backed up but foolishly not all....IView the full article

My audio keeps cutting out after launching an application. Everything would seem fine but after a few seconds all audio would cut off and whenever I tried to watch a video it would start to buffer. Everything else works fine except the audio. I have searched online for posts related to my issue and found some. One that is very similar to mine talks about how every time they tried to launch Minecraft bedrock edition it cut off all audio and YouTube would start to buffer. I have tried troubleshooting, and it says it couldn't find anything wrong. I have updated my audio driver. All of the issues View the full article
