View 4 RepliesI'm using static IP for Network #1 which is 192.168.1.110
But when I try joining another network let's say network #2 with a router address like 192.168.43.1 i have to change network settings and use another static IP 192.168.43.10
Can't i just ask windows to use static IP 192.168.1.110 when i try to connect to network #1 and 192.168.43.10 when I connect to network #2 without having to manually configure it every time ?
I really have to use static IPs when connecting to those two particular networks...

View 1 RepliesI went to see my daughter and after she resumed her computer from hibernate (it had been off for about 2 days) a message popped up saying its ip address had been detected in use by another computer.
I suspect it was my cell phone that when in range asked for an ip address and the router, thinking the hibernated laptop wasn't using that ip address any longer gave it to my cell phone. Then after her system resumed from hibernate, it continued to use the ip address it had when it hibernated.
Does windows renew its dhcp ip lease on resume? Can it tell if the lease expired?
I am having problems setting up remote desktop. I can not find the program in windows firewall to enable it. was just wondering if this would be due to my copy of windows 10 is not activated?

I went on steam sound test and all I heard was : Static/buzzing noise.I tried reinstalling realtek HD audio drivers which didn't work.Unplugging and plugging in the mic didn't work either.Changing mic boost settings didn't work either...
The mic is not a USB mic, it is plugged in to the front of the pc using the mic and headset ports.The sound however is working fine.Mic works perfect in my mac when using some kind of turn 2 cables into 1 thing. The mic does pick up sounds but it seems to be losing pretty much 99% of it's quality on it's way into the speakers/headset.
My home screen is almost static, all of the tiles is static and not live. Only people tile has a little animation and the tile from calendar show some information. All other tiles show the "brand" and work as simple icon.
If I choose someone and turn off the live option and switch back doesn't happen.

When I play videos on Youtube or Vimeo or music on SoundCloud (which is as much as I tested), I hear a static sound. It happens the most often for YouTube, maybe 10 seconds, and less often for Vimeo and SoundCloud. This impacts headphones (Beats) and speakers.
How can I fix this static sound? I'm using, for all my audio stuff, IDT Audio.
New computer built, using Windows 10. I'm getting static on every audio device/browser/software. I am also 95% sure I updated all drivers. But Microsoft denies me a right to have service due to custom build, and Kingston just blames Windows, as does Gigabyte.
Motherboard: Gigabyte G1 Gaming GA-Z170X-Gaming 7 (rev. 1.0)
OS: Windows 10 build 1151
Headset: Hyper X Cloud 2 with the latest Firmware update.
And a shitty Logitech that has the same problem.
Tried the audio jack on the mobo, case's front USB headers as well. Everything is static.
When I start a HD movie, or just have windows or Kodi on, I get this static noise, and when I play a video it gets even louder. It sounds like the volume is turned up really high. When there's sound from the movie you really can't hear it, but when it's a quiet part or only talking, it's audible.
However, since I watch shows and movies mostly with headphones, it's really an issue, it is very audible and disturbing. I've noticed that when I move my cursor in Windows I get a faint "extra" static sound.
I use a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse combo. I've tried disabling WiFi, Bluetooth, changing drivers, change where I connect the power cord in the wall.
This is not an issue with my xbox, or my old non-windows, non-pc media player. There was a very faint static on the old media player, but that can be attributed to many a thing, but wasn't a problem.
System:
Fanless htpc.
120W psu.(it's located at the opposite end of where my hdmi is connected, and uses an external block as a transformator.)

I've had my Inspiron N4110 laptop for a while now and it seems it might finally be kicking the bucket. It works fine for a while and then it just starts flashing rainbow colors on the external screen I have it hooked into and static horizontal lines on the main display. This happens maybe once or twice every week. The fan kicks into high gear and I can't do anything, so I have to restart it. After the restart, it is usually extremely slow and cannot operate for the most part. In its most recent episode, it has worked pretty good. Before its most recent episode, I was able to figure out a few things. (its running windows 10 btw)
Using CrystalDiskInfo, I was able to figure out that the hard drive is okay
I used Auslogics Disk Defrag Professional to see if it was fragmented, but its only at 2%
I used the command prompt and ran sfc /scannow to determine that there are no system file errors
I used Auslogics BoostSpeed 8 to do a registry cleaning, and its fine.
Right before its latest episode, I removed a USB without doing the safe extract thing, but I doubt hitting that would have worked. This was happening before I upgraded to windows 10, but it has been happening more frequently lately. I'm running a virus scan with Malwarebytes and will post the results soon. I have not been able to determine a cause for this. I took a video of the problem ....
I got mine with everything installed. So if I uninstall and reinstall Realtek, I might mess this up more. I don't even know what version I have and I can't understand the terms used in the instructions.
Should I just wait for a system update form Microsoft. Or do I really have to uninstall my audio software?
A couple of weeks ago my PC started having issues. It started by the screens (2) flashing static when I would wake it up from sleep. I would have to reboot to fix it. Then when I would reach the login screen and enter my password I would be greeted by a black screen with just a mouse cursor. I though it had froze, but it turns out if I wait 15-20 minutes the desktop would eventually load. I tried restoring from a previous point but it didn't work and caused more issues. Suddenly none of my apps nor the store worked.
I tried an image restore and it seems to have fixed my app issue, but I'm still having screen issues and a long boot time. If that wasn't frustrating enough, I tried to install the latest Nvidia drivers today and as soon as I begin installing I get the blue screen, it has to restart and I get this message: PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA. I upgraded to Windows 10 when it was first released and have had no issues up to this point. I'm wondering if this issue wasn't all caused when I installed the last set of Nvidia drivers they released on 8/31/15.
I've tried a sfc scannow and it came up with nothing.

Okay, this is a really weird one. For the last 2 months I've been experiencing this reoccurring issue on my new Dell XPS 13 laptop where 1-2 times a day, the audio will suddenly get extremely staticy. It generally will last at least 1 minute but sometimes significantly longer, and will affect all audio, including Windows alert sounds and even the "Playback device" test sound. This affects both the internal laptop speakers and any AUX device. I have not experienced the issue when audio is played through HDMI/DP, but I haven't been able to test it enough to know for certain.
However, there is one exception that I have only discovered today: the audio issue does NOT affect any files played through Win10's new default player, Groove. I have played exactly the same audio file on both VLC and Groove "even concurrently" to confirm.
I've posted a link below to an MP3 recording of it: [URL]
I've spoken to Dell and we have tried countless fixes that I've tried to list below, but the problem persists:
Fresh reinstall of Windows
Replaced motherboard (twice?)
Uninstalled Realtek audio drivers
Updated BIOS
Tried changing all settings in the Realtek HD Audio Manager
Probably 4-5 other issues
I have Realtek Audio HD driver for sound installed on windows 10. For about a week, my laptop ran with no problems. However, last night there was no sound output into my headphones. I unplugged my headphones, plugged them in again. Still no sound.
I tried my headphones on different computers and phones and sound worked normally. I then tried a different pair of headphones on my laptop and no sound was coming out. The speaker is still functioning normally.
I have since restarted my laptop multiple times, and each time I restart a message saying that "You have changed your settings in BIOS setup. Would you like to restart your computer to apply these changes?"pops up.
Sometimes, my headphones somehow come to life, and sound is able to be played. However, when this occurs there is a lot of background static noise, although the sound quality itself is very good.
Windows 10 is great and all but I've come across a really annoying issue: [URL] ....
For whatever reason, there's a lot of graphical glitching/lag while using Chrome, and only really in the address box. What's strange is I've reinstalled Chrome, reinstalled my AMD Radeon R9 280X drivers, and then gave up and tried using Chromium (which works but has weird graphical glitches on the web pages sometimes).
Microsoft Edge works fine and Chrome's web page rendering is also fine. How to fix this?
I got an email from someone I have several addresses for, with the Mail client showing just the name of the sender, not the address the mail was sent from. I want to reply to a specific address, but also to know which address the email came from in the first place. In Live Mail I could check the email details and get lots of info about the email, including what address it was sent from.
View 9 RepliesWhen opening my address book in Word 2007 to copy in an address, I get the message "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request.."
This has worked repeatedly in the past. I have no problem using the address book in Outlook and Outlook is the default mail client.
I recently installed the free upgrade from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10, but cannot remember if the last time my address book worked correctly was before or after I upgraded.
After I install cumulative security update 911567 for Outlook Express when i try to open it Address Book I receive an error message that resembles the following: Unable to open Address book. Address book may not be installed correctly
View 1 RepliesI have an email address, let's say it's tomjones@yahoo.com. Well in Windows 10, almost any time I try to type it, whether on my yahoo email or on any webpage, it comes out tomjones8@yahoo.com. At first I thought maybe I was accidentally hitting the 8 and adding it in myself, but now I'm very careful when I type it and it's like Windows auto-corrects it to that.
I may have once typed that into a form- I sometimes do just add a number onto my real email when I'm filling something out and want to make a dummy email, but it's like now Windows has decided that is my true email. It's causing serious problems because now if I ever miss that auto-correct it's done, I may send someone a bad email address. I read about turning off auto-correct and I don't want to do that, I just want it to recognize that tomjones@yahoo.com is valid.
Is there a way I can remove my email address from the user login?My user name is listed along with others who use the computer. I am prompted to enter my password. I would rather my email address not be shown.

View 2 RepliesOn my Microsoft account I use my personal email and two work emails. On Windows Phone 8.1, I can reply to emails and it will send it using the address the email was sent to. So instead of say dan@live.com, the From will read dan@work.com.
I need to be able to do this with the Windows Mail app in Windows 10. But I can't find how or even if it's possible. Is it?
How or where can I change my registered email address for windows 10 preview?
From the start when Windows started with their preview I did an registration with a email address in used in that time.
Now, running windows 10 as an insider and geregisterd with a Microsoft account and using a new Microsoft mail address, in settings my PC is saying: Get Insider Preview builds.
Now I'm thinking if I make my geregisterd email the same as the one I'm using with the Microsoft account, this will be solved.
