    I have i5 processor with 8gb ram and 2gb of nvidia 940mx can I play assassins creed syndiacate

    Not very well, unfortunately. You'd get limited fps at medium and perhaps even low settings.

    How do I check when a folder IS created?

    Another annoying thing with these type of programs is that they can be classified as a PUP so antimalware doesn't detect it. Windows defender usually does though.

    How do I check when a folder IS created?

    We could prevent the miner from running, maybe even installing, but that would leave the obvious problem that the something that installs it is still in your computer. Try a full scan from windows defender if you haven't already tried that. After that, if you know when the miner will appear...

    Cyber Ransomware (corrected spelling {moderator})

    Call me the necropost master, but if you happen to be victim of ransomware, not paying, unless specified, does not do more damage to your computer as it is already encrypted and your chances of having the skills to decrypt it are very very slim. You have to pay up or reinstall basically.

    How do I check when a folder IS created?

    Someone here was having the same problem. They seem to have located a program called rthdcpl.exe which was responsible for creating the miner program. Try to locate it using task manager. They believe that antimalware couldn't find it because it is a PUP instead of malware.

    Avast Free Antivirus has pop-ups telling me I have 75 unprotected passwords on my PC. Should I be worried?

    I see. I had a hunch that it was a premium service. If you have an encrypted word file there isn't much need for your browser passwords. Perhaps delete the really important passwords stored on the browser for security reasons. Assuming your passwords aren't all the same, that is.

    Avast Free Antivirus has pop-ups telling me I have 75 unprotected passwords on my PC. Should I be worried?

    This forum with the same question links to this FAQ site which says how to disable certain components of the antivirus. Avast is a very trusted software though, and if avast can find the passwords, malware can. Perhaps follow avast's instructions on how to get rid of/hide these passwords? I...

    Which of these two headphones should I choose?

    I'm not so sure the Jabra move has a microphone, I know the Plantronics Backbeat has one though, so the call quality will be better on that one. EDIT: The Jabra move does have a mic, but the Plantronics has a slightly better quality one. I'm not sure if it is worth the extra money though...

    Which of these two headphones should I choose?

    Jabra move wireless is a great value headphone, but in my personal experience it breaks down very easily with use. I returned mine 3 times in a row, all breakages within a year of each other (I could just be really unlucky). The Plantronics headphone you might find are a tad uncomfortable as...

    Is it possible to connect multiple USB ports together to one port for much faster speeds?

    Ah ok. That makes a bit more sense. Anyway, if your computers have a free PCI-E lane you could get a USB2 or 3 adapter. Apart from that I don't think there is much you can do.

    Is it possible to connect multiple USB ports together to one port for much faster speeds?

    Lol. No, not really. If you actually have USB 1 you might have better luck transferring data through Ethernet.

    Can i play Portal 1 on my computer?

    Thanks for the correction, but it does appear to be a driver as well: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/48011/Intel-Graphics-Media-Accelerator-3150-Intel-GMA-3150-

    Can i play Portal 1 on my computer?

    Intel GMA 3150 is the driver software for your GPU. Not your actual GPU. Logical Processors doesn't matter and x86 is just the bandwith type for your CPU. On lowest settings you might be able to run it, but don't expect a steady 60fps. You might occasionally get that though, but only because...
