PLEASE HELP!!! So i’ve been seeing a lot of people with this issue but nothing quite like mine. when i open my laptop, it shows a screen that says my password is expired and must be changed. so i click yes to change it.

Then I have to unplug the HDMI cable from the laptop to have it show on the Monitor 1. This happens whether I have thView the full article

Hello,I have an HP laptop that currently runs on Windows 11. Since about a week or so, I am constantly having browser issues. Pages that I want to access dont load (get a blank screen, no content), or the functionalities on different sites dont work properly (e.g. preparing for assessment testing, these mock-tests are supposed to calculate results at the end, but my browser just stops loading it at around 80% progress of calculations, not loading the end result).

This has been happening for around 2 days now and it seems nobody knows what the problem is. Recently I changed my graphics settings from performance to dx11 and it told me to restart the game, so I did. When the game closed, it didn't restart but on the task manager it said the game was open. So I ended the task and relaunched the game. After playing for a while I decided to get off the game, when I did the computer went to the home screen then a few seconds later, it blue screened. Now this happens every time I close the game. I will provide what I can so that this problem can be resolved.StView the full article
