    Question Best Laptop Temperature Monitor Program?

    If you're looking for a simple, lightweight program, try Core Temp 1.17.1 . I believe the standard version is free, as I don't recall ever paying for it, and I have used it forever. It tells you what each core's temperature is and it allows you to enter a maximum temperature which, if...

    Question Possibly Incorrect Category for Post, but ... .scr or .asw to video format?

    Hello all (mods, if there is a better category for this question please advise or move post? TY). Not sure where to post, but I have an image file I added simple animations to, and made into a screensaver, with a third-party app. If i can get it into an .avi format, I can use another app to run...

    Question My laptop is not turning on

    This may not be the correct solution, but if you have another compatible power adapter available (friend; order one and return, if not), try that. I had no idea it could happen until it happened to me, but sometimes the adapter fails in a way where there is still power getting through or maybe...

    Solved! Mirroring Laptop How-To? (If even possible)

    Thank you, both. I found a "Todo Transfer" program which at first glance seems to tout itself as being able to do what I'd like, but I haven't really studied it enough to say. If I do happen to use it or find out it can, I will update.

    Solved! Mirroring Laptop How-To? (If even possible)

    Hi all! Is there a way to mirror an ASUS to an MSI? Basically, I would like for the MSI to be as much a duplicate of the ASUS as possible. I believe that their specs are nearly identical. MSI GT70 2OD 039US - Dragon Edition 2 - 17.3" - Core i7 4700MQ - 32 GB RAM - 1 TB HDD + 384 GB SSD...

    Solved! Internet Speed Conundrum

    Yes! For one, he was correct in that the ASUS is only seeing the 2.4 Ghz connection. He also mentioned some changes I can perform to the router protocols which I hope to tackle once the 5Ghz issue is resolved and his help, if he's kind enough to reply again. Thank you!!!

    Solved! Internet Speed Conundrum

    Yes, of course; however, I am going by our past experience and results. Plus, the difference, while not negligible, should not be this steep. :(

    Solved! Lenovo Dead? Display? Hard-Drive?

    Ello. Still need a little more help, please. I used two recovery programs. The first, ICare, just showed me around 550 recoverable partitions, but did not say what was in each so I didn't know which to recover. The second, EaseUS took about 5 hours to find all recoverable files, but when I...

    Solved! Lenovo Dead? Display? Hard-Drive?

    Just an update ... So it seems as if it was a hard-drive failure. :( I have connected the hard-drive from the Lenovo to the ASUS via the USB to SATA cable and it SEES two drives. One is my old D drive which I was able to copy the files from; and the other, I am guessing is what used to be...

    Ahhh! Got it. Thanks so much for all the information. My USB to SATA cable was supposed to arrive today but there were delays with the carrier apparently. Hoping beyond hope it'll work.

    Solved! Lenovo Dead? Display? Hard-Drive?

    A way to copy the laptop's registry from the router somehow? Sorry if I'm confused. This is a brand new router we connected the day after my Lenovo ... became ill. ;) I do still have the old router though. Let me know please if there is a way to get info. off of it or if I misunderstood...
