I want to turn this feature off but I can't because the button to set between the different options is not visible. This visual bug happens in all versions of Windows 10 10586, and it doesn't matter the display resolution. How to fix this visual bug or turn Virtual Memory manually?

View 1 RepliesNot sure what I'm doing wrong but when I look at the MWDA reviews, everyone's surface is picking up the full screen.
My sp4 though, doesn't. there is a black screen around the screen when projected to the TV. I've tried it on my tv (old *** tv) and a newer Samsung TV.
The only way I got it to pick up the entire screen on the Samsung was by adjusting the picture size and stretching it. But it would never fit exact. Piece of the screen would be cut off on the top, bottom and sides.
It's annoying. I've tried changing the settings in the MWDA app but that only makes things smaller.

View 1 RepliesMy laptop touchpad scrolling stopped working this morning after I updated my gpu driver. I went to the packard bell website and looked at the touchpad drivers for my laptop. There is a synaptics one and a elan one.
I have them both installed on my laptop but it still isn't working and there is still no virtual scrolling option in synaptics. These are the options that I have in the synaptics settings:
This is what it should look like:
What do I have to do to get the scroll trackpad feature to work again? P.S, when in device manager, even though there is an ELAN tab in mouse properties, Only the synaptics driver shows up under the mice section in device manager. Does this mean that the synaptics driver is replacing the ELAN and I need them both for the scroll to work.
I got my new Wi-Fi adapter today (TL-WDN4200) and in order to access its 5Ghz connecting capabilities, you have to download the updated drivers off the TP-Link website. I did just that. However when I go to device manager, right click my WiFi adapter and update the drivers. This error message appears when I click on the driver file: [URL] ...
I have windows 10 64 bit. Will that be the problem? since TP-Link has not released any official drivers for Windows 10 yet? Will I need to revert back to Windows 8.1 to access the 5Ghz connection?
I was downloading an app that i know is safe but the last time i downloaded it was with Win 7 , this time with Win 10 i get the below message , should i have this installed and if i do i am kind of wondering why the Win 10 ISO missed it .

I recently upgraded directly from Windows 8.1 64-bit to Windows 10 and I am having some problem with my Ethernet Adapter. My Ethernet Adapter is a Killer e2200 Gigabit Ethernet Controller, which is built in to my motherboard (MSI Z87M GAMING). When I first installed Windows 10, I found both a software suite and just the drivers themselves on the Killer website. I first tried the whole suite, but it didn't really work very well, felt unnecessary, and basically didn't seem to actually install any drivers. I then used the actual .inf file for my Ethernet Adapter to install manually. I uninstalled the driver and software, and then installed the driver manually through Device Manager by saying "have disk" and navigating to the folder and selecting the .inf file I downloaded. This works, but I have to repeat the process of uninstalling and reinstalling the driver every time I restart Windows.
There are additional variables that could also contribute to the problem. I am using one of those adapters that plug into the electrical outlet to extend the Ethernet line to reach my basement. I don't know if this really should have any effect on my problems, but I figured I should mention it. The product is made by TP-LINK. I also have VPN software on my computer, and part of running the VPN software is having it install a "TAP-Win32 Adapter V9" driver under Network adapters in Device Manager. This could be contributing to my problems, but I do need to have access to my VPN. I did not experience this problem at all under Windows 8.1 using the driver install disc that came with my motherboard.
I've recently upgraded my home PC from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I've been using a Realtek USB Wi-Fi adapter to connect to the internet. After installing the new OS and running it for the first time, I couldn't connect to my home network.
After reinstalling the drivers supplies by the manufacturer and reattaching the adapter, I attempted to again connect to the network. The "Verifying and connecting" message displayed, but after closing Settings and returning to the same page, all of the Wi-Fi settings have disappeared, like the drivers have crashed.
The adapter works in windows 8.1 but does not start in windows 10. Device manager shows an exclamation mark. Installing a new driver does not work. The device manager tells me the best drivers are already installed.
View 9 RepliesMessed around with the drivers, now the ethernet device doesn't show up in the network adapter settings, although it shows up in the Device Manager. It is also apparently in sleep mode.So after formatting and installing Windows 10 x64 on my Dell Inspiron 3542, I decided to update/re-install the drivers from the official Dell download page. Windows Update had taken care of the hardware but the versions were outdated, so I set to work. After successfully installing almost all the drivers, I ran the Ethernet Controller Driver and after installing it, the ethernet device was disabled. BTW, the device shows up as "Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller".
I enabled it but it still remained disabled. In the Properties dialog box it gave me the option to disable it, which means that it thinks that the device is enabled, which it is not. It is visible in the Device Manager, so it is being recognized. After restarting to come to the same result, I deleted the driver from Device Manager and re-installed it, which didn't work. (I don't remember if I attempted a roll-back, although if I did then it obviously didn't work either.)
Then I went to the Realtek official website and downloaded the Win10 Auto-installation Program. It asked me to remove the previous installation from Dell, and near the end, it gave me the error, "The Realtek Network Controller was not found. If Deep Sleep Mode is enabled, Please Plug the Cable". And after this, or after deleting and re-installing the Dell driver (I unfortunately don't remember when), the ethernet device disappeared from the adapter settings. Now there's only Wi-fi there.I really want my ethernet back, even though I have wi-fi to connect to the internet. The only solutions I can see are to either get the Dell driver working or to remove the device from sleep mode.
I am trying to start a hosted network on my Windows 10 system, but every time I got something like "The group or resource is not in the correct state." I then ran "netsh wlan show driver" and see that it is using a Realtek RTL8723BS driver which says it does not support hosted network. I also don't see any "Microsoft hosted network virtual driver" in my Device Manager, even if I turn on the showing of hidden devices. Does that mean there is no way I can get a hosted network to run on this device? Is there some way I can get the driver to support hosted network? (I already updated to the latest version of the driver and rebooted, and that did not work).

I have a laptop that is directly connected to a wired WAN internet connection and I share the Internet connection with other devices using the netsh command prompt. Is there any way to see who are connected and more importantly, how much bandwidth each device is using?
View 2 RepliesI'm having quite a bit of trouble removing the generic bluetooth drivers that Windows installs for you. Those have to be gone if I want to install Toshiba Bluetooth Stacks, which I need in order to use my Wii U Pro Controller in my computer. I've gone through a few methods to try this out and all have failed.
I started out by simply uninstalling the drivers on the device manager (or whatever it is called in English). Didn't work, as the drivers were back when I had to plug in my dongle to complete the installation for TBS. When I tried this in Windows 7, it worked flawlessly, yet in Windows 10 this method did not work.
Afterwards, I tried deactivating the forced driver signature, as well as make it so Windows Update doesn't automatically download any drivers it finds suitable. On top of this, I traveled into the INF folder of my Windows folder to do steps that Microsoft recommended: rename bth.inf to bth.inf.old and bth.pnf to bth.pnf.old. With all this, it should in theory work right? Nope, it didn't. Not even after a reset.
My last attempt involved unplugging my PC from the Internet as a first step, followed by everything else listed above and then a reset. The drivers were still back, bth.inf and bth.pnf somehow magically appearing in my Windows folder when I have no Internet access. I'm at a loss as to what I'm supposed to do.
