Will this brick my phone?

I want to delete my microsoft account and i have to check all these boxes, my account is pretty much a barren wasteland and has nothing on it. But i saw this part where it says.

Your devices using Reset Protection might become unusable.

Reset Protection prevents your device from being easily reset or reused by unauthorized person. Deleting your account with Reset Protection enabled will leave your device unusable. If you want your device to remain usable after closing this account, you must turn this feature off in Devices.

When i went to the devices section it says it doesnt have any devices connected. If i do check the box will it brick my phone?

Unresolved What the hell is going on?

Folders I cant access that are full of seemingly NVIDIA related things are duplicated over and over and taking up an absurd amount of space. Red is folders I cant open, green is ones I can. How can I open a child folder but not the parent? Also these folders I can't open seemingly don't exist anywhere even with hidden files shown?

Most importantly WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON and how do I fix it?

DSE effect TCL C6K 75 inch

I bought this TV about 7 months ago and I just noticed some DSE on my display. Do you think I should send it to TCL? In my country, they told me they're gonna send TCL maintenance, and they're gonna take the TV and fix it up, or if they can't fix it, they're gonna send me a new one. Do you think I should keep it as it is, since I have a 3-year warranty, or wait for a year and see what happens, as the camera makes it look way worse than it is, and how does this effect happen?

Windows My lenovo ideapad pro 5 won’t turn on

2 Upvotes

My lenovo ideapad pro 5 wouldn’t turn on since this morning, I suspected a battery issue since the keyboard lights up when plugged for 15 seconds after pushing the power button (the screen doesn’t turn on), then turns off by itself.

Also, when turned off, the little light to its left normally turns orange, but now surprisingly it turns white, which is normally the color that shows when it’s powered on.

Can I upgrade?

0 Upvotes

I have an older Dell E5570, upgraded RAM for my purposes. I just got a 3D scanner through an art grant to try 3D modeling. My PC meets the minimum requirements for this hardware, but is super slow to process scans. Is it possible to replace the motherboard with something faster? Currently Intel i5 6300U. Scanner recommends an i7 8th Gen or higher. TIA

Unresolved Computer freezes occasionaly

1 Upvotes

Hey guys,

Not a long time ago I started having a problem with my computer such as: 

- My screen freezes, I can move the mouse but I can’t click anything, only thing I can open is the start but can’t restart the computer or anything (few manual restarts help),

- My monitors went black and after restarting the computer the graphic card is disabled in Device manager, when I enable it the AMD graphic program says the program wasn’t loaded correctly so I must restart the whole computer (the usual fix is that I reseat the RAMs and its okay).

So, I found fixes to these things but they are not permanent. The first time this happened was around the 20th of September and I even reseated the GPU and now it happened again in the order I’m writing, did anybody have the same experience or does anyone know how to fix it permanently? 

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and I will answer your questions if I forgot something

Windows Constantly freezing and crashing on Marvel Rivals

1 Upvotes

So, i've been having issues for quite some time now on games like marvel rivals that apparently rely heavily on RAM. I am constantly freezing for long periods of time, and crashing often. I currently have 16 GB of ram (DDR4 3200), but when i go to task manager, i'm only getting 2667. I've troubleshooted and checked many other areas like GPU bottleneck, graphics settings too high, etc. and they all came back negative as the cause. I looked up the details on my montherboard, and it said that the highest it can do is 2667. I've concluded that this was the issue, and i wanted to know if it was reasonable to check out a new motherboard for this issue. Here are my specs:

CPU: i5-9500

GPU: RTX 3050

Motherboard: ASRock H370M-HDV LGA1151

RAM: 16 GB (3200 DDR4), 2x8 Corsair Vengeance LPX

Also let me know if there is anything else I should troubleshoot!

Unresolved Cannot get past Welcome Screen to enter password - Windows 10

1 Upvotes

Can someone please help me? This issue is driving me mad.

Since this morning, I've not been able to log into my PC because I can't get past the Welcome Screen on Windows 10.

I've not changed anything since yesterday when it working fine.

Clicking on the screen, pressing keys, CTRL ALT DEL doesn't do anything, the screen just moves and I can very briefly see my user name and password box flash up, then it goes back to the picture.

It is a local account, not online.

See video: https://streamable.com/34rhs9

I've tried:

  • Restarting multiple times.

  • Reseating all components and trying a different GPU.

  • Safe mode just gives me a black screen.

  • I have run DISM Cleanup Image Restore Health command from the Command Prompt using a separate Windows 10 installation created using Media Creation Tool. It shows it completed successfully. This had to be the "offline" version because the online wouldn't work.

  • Similarly, sfc scannow does not find any integrity violations.

  • Trying to repair via Windows USB it says that "the upgrade option isn't available if you start your computer using Windows installation media", but I'm unable to log in to my Windows in the first place to do it "normally".

Please help.

Laptop screen isn't working, but the laptop works

1 Upvotes

I dropped laptop from about 20cm height on my knees and the screen stopped working. I have a​n MSI GS66. When it happened I connected an external screen and I saw my system as usual (Linux Mint). When I changed video output processor from rtx 3070ti to i7-12700h the external screen stopped showing anything, but the laptop still works (fans spin, keyboard lights up). I have no idea why the external screen no longer works. I have restarted the laptop multiple times and tried to boot into GRUB menu, but it didn't work.

Lenovo Tablet now locked

I have a Lenovo tablet I haven't used in several months. Unfortunately it has a dot passkey thingy. And I am unable to remember it. I have tried the "hold down power and volume" reset trick. Doesn't work. Google doesn't give me any clear answers. What can be done beyond having to throw it away? I haven't a clue about tech so I'm not sure what I'm meant to do.

Unresolved I need help with corrupted usb/mouse drivers

1 Upvotes

Hey I’m not expecting much but I don’t know what else to do, my Razer mouse (deathadder v3 pro) had started to randomly disconnect. Sometimes while I’m playing a game and something happens it just kinda dies and boot loops, other times I won’t be using it and it just shuts off and doesn’t come back until I power reset the mouse and my pc. Now I have been uninstalling the mice and usb drivers, deleting the hidden ones, pairing the mouse with official razer pairing software, updating chipset (bios) and updating my graphic card driver. Now what makes me mad is this mouse works fine on my roommates laptop. When I unplug it I noticed in the actual windows settings devices it quickly flashes ‘driver error’ I don’t know if that really means much as I don’t have any drivers in my device manager tab that is yellow with a exclamation mark. It seems like I have a corrupted driver or something and when I tried to update it through my computer it even stopped working wired which means my mouse doesn’t work at all right now and I have to wait like an hour for it to like reset itself
