I restricted some applications running through Group Policy, but every time one of these apps run I get this popup message. How do I disable this popup message while still blocking the apps?

Just got done doing a fresh install of windows after getting a new motherboard, CPU, and Ram and the temps have me a bit worried.

Should I be worried? On my last setup they never went above 40C most of the time.

I'm also downloading the windows update shits because it seems like there's a lot of functionality missing from my computer.

My trusty Nexus 5 which worked without issues on the same old cm11 rom for 2 years shat itself this morning. It rebooted without reason and apparently app configurations for most non system apps were lost, it was low on space (dunno if that had anything to do) and now had about .5gb extra free. The real problem is wifi won't work now, if I reflash the kernel zip from recovery it works again for a while but dies a few minutes after, staying greyed out. This seems to be a semi common issue with this phone and there are like 20 possible fixes so im asking here first. Anyone had this problem before? I have my original efs backup and mac address noted down, im rooted too, currently backing up everything to reflash rom in hopes it works.

Also anyone here uses Colornote? there are some things i'd really like back but there's nothing were autobackups should be, on phones with fat32 filesystem you could just run recuva and have a chance of recovery but this is the first time I have something like this happen on android on whatever filesystem it uses, any app for this?

I wouldent really call it stupid , but anywho.. I have a few "unlimited" LTE plans , and I recently noticed they were slowing some of the traffic on one of my lines when I "tether".. Supposedly, more modern Android OSs have added a "feature" that reports to the carrier if the phone is tethering , and what kind of user agent it has. Anyone know more about this? I need to completely remove it from my os, fuck that shit.

Also, if that doenst work, is there any way I could get around this if I were to pick up a sierra wireless and set it up to route my data through a VPN?

Anyone else here use their phone line as their main connection to internet? I live out in the middle of nowhere , so it is really my only option.

I think Comcast is throtteling me connecting to VPN servers. I get like 2mb down on a torrent, but then when i connect to a VPN (I tried 2, bolehvpn and cactusvpn) the speed goes to absolute shit. Speedtest gives me 10mb down ordinarily, but then when on a vpn it gets down to fucking .5mbps.

Any way to work around this?

Windows 7 will probably work fine for ya. If not, it's really easy to go back to 8. You could also use a tool like classicshell to make 8 more like 7. And in 10 you can disable updates with a registry tweak or tools like ultimate tweaker

>>58350848
yeah i installed os on the ssd, made the mistake of installing some programs on their too because i didn't see the customize button. oh well, i uninstalled the programs now, reinstalled on the non ssd drive. ssd is only for the os.

this may be another stupid question, but install the klite codec pack on the sata drive, correct?

>>58350904
Presumably all of your drives are sata. But I would install any small programs utilities to the SSD. Ideally all your programs would go on there, but since you're strapped for space you have to make judgement calls.

I have a really simple problem, but it seems like it requires a complex solution. I can't think of it, but I really need assistance.

>notice the "N" in the word "New"

I'm trying to find a way to change the color of only part of the letter in any kind of desktop publishing application. Is there a way to edit the color of Times New Roman font rather than the whole letter?

>I'm trying to get the effect of that N in the word New, where it contrasts like that in black and white in this particular font

Can someone figure out a solution? Thanks.

>>58351179
fonts don't have color

they are a set of vectors

but you could find a way to have a rectangle overlay which reverses the colors in that given area like your image

>>58351163
Torrents don't always work very well on VPNs. It depends on a lot of factors. Try checking out forums for your vpn or emailing support. They might have a solution for you, and they should know the specific technical issues of your situation better than anyone. If all else fails try checking with comcast and see if they are limiting traffic.

Yo guys, I bought a G502 mouse on Black Friday from Fry's for $25 but since then they've sent out an email saying they have no definitive date for delivery and that I can cancel my order at anytime.

Is there any poorfag gaming mice for under like $15 bucks you guys would recommend? Not looking for anything too crazy as far as dpi needs but would definitely prefer a bigger mouse with nice ergonomics.

>>58351284

It's stores entries in a flash chip on board the motherboard.
The UEFI just scans EFI partitions for bootable systems, and adds them to the list.
It depends on the system, some are cleared on CMOS reset, some are cleared on "default settings"

I have a SIYOTEAM SD/MicroSD Card Reader Model SY-368 . When I insert a MicroSD Card in it (I have a Kingston and a SanDisk both 2GB) in it it won't read. The "disk" dissapears from my computer and nothing happens. I reinstalled both USB Mass Storage from Device Manager and made sure the SwitchLock isn't activated on the adapter but I still can't acces the microSD.

What do?

I just bought a used r9 fury x but in speccy it only shows as a r9 fury is this right?

Can someone rec me a good book to read to learn discrete mathematics for comp sci? I literally don't know anything about it, but I have basic calculus behind my belt, am taking calc 2 and want to get a handle and discrete math before I go to uni in 8 months. I went to /sci/ and looked around and the only book recommendations I got was a 1000 page textbook and a 400 page textbook, the latter not even discussing graph theory. Basically, I want to be able to understand and create a bellman-ford program.

Please rec me some good discrete math books.

I am considering buying 1070/1080 and replace my 970 because it has coil whine. So what brand is absent of coil whine?

Thanks

Grab GPUtemp, and run a game in windowed mode (alt+enter works for a lot of games) so you can see it.

>>58355055
Check temperature and video card. Then check power supply.

Had this happen twice. Once because my power supply was too weak and another because power supply broke.

Depends on the game, how CPU intensive it is, and whether it's going to use VR. You can look up how CPU intensive particular games are. Four cores will be a limitation for some games.

Hello gents. I have an UPS to which I want to connect some devices, but they're a tad bit too far away.

Before spending half a day changing things around so that I can connect them, I was wondering if it would be possible to get extension cords (no power strips or anything of the kind, just a simple extension) from the UPS to the device itself.

I have a few thousand dollars that I can't spend on anything but a laptop. What should I get? I've had a T43 IBM Thinkpad running on XP since 2013 and it's time for an upgrade, but I know nothing about laptops.

It will be mainly used for work and leisure as I already have a PC for gaming that I built in 2013. Not all of the money has to be used.

Are there any gtx 1070/1080s that have mini displayport?

Free tool to monitor my CPU and GPU temperatures for macOS?

For some reason, mpv has been slow as shit for a while. How could I diagnose the reason behind that?

>>58356851
Depends on what your work is. I can't see breaking $1500 on a non-gaming laptop unless you have some specialty in mind or you just want to blow a shitton of cash slapping an apple logo on it

>>58357063
Nevermind, --vo=vaapi worked.

>>58357174
Yea I had the same thought. I wasn't even looking at Apple because I have nothing else related to it and I've never used it.

Work would be financing or accounting type stuff.

If it helps, the money is coming from my 529. That means I can only spend the money on "education". I'm a graduating senior and I have $6600 left in it, but I'm actually done with paying for college. So I was going to spend it on my books (probably about $300) for the last semester and a new laptop. But there's just no way I'll blow more than $1500 on a laptop.

I was thinking something around $800 will be reasonable. I like reliability, simplicity, and adaptability in my technology. But as I said, I don't know dick about the laptop market.

How do I watch 3D movies in Debian? Do I need the proprietary Radeon driver? Do I just play them with mpv?

>>58357416
>3D movies
What format would that be?
Just try mpv and see if it works first.

>>58357023
Either Speccy or HwInfo should have a MAC port i think

>>58357322
Yeah, $800 usually goes a long way. I'd look for a 256gb SSD+1tb hdd or maybe a 512 SSD. IPS is nice; you don't realize how washed out normal screens are until you step it up. Stepping up to 1440p (2k) resolution is nice because it translates into more screen real estate, so you can see much more of webpages/documents at once. 4k is overkill on laptops but doesn't really hurt (aside from battery life) since you can turn the resolution down. Also backlit keyboards are nice. Make sure whatever you get has a keyboard and trackpad you like. Go to a bestbuy or something and try it out if you can. Get a proccessor that ends in "HQ", otherwise even i7's will usually just be dual cores. If you decide to take gaming in consideration, be aware that the 10xx generation is WAY beyond the 9xx cards, as they're now sticking more or less desktop cards in there and just downclocking them a bit.

I'd start here:

So I live on the 3rd floor of an apartment and the 1st floor has a router which is a TP-Link AC1200 where my own computer has a TP-Link PCI Express adapter AC1300

For some reason, the other computer in my room has MUCH better internet connection than mine despite being a USB AC1000 adapter.

I switched the locations of both computers on the 3rd floor and even then, my internet is still slower.

By that assumption, something is wrong with my computer considering for example, I cannot play Overwatch without rubberbanding to death. Speedtests also show it slow as balls.

Where should I start to figure this out?

you have no right to share or license it, read the fine print on uni regs mang, any work produced for class or on uni equipment technically belongs to them and if they get a hair up their ass over you distributing it or putting a license on it they don't like they can sue you and possibly even kick you out, so talk with your professor about it first and get some sort of documentation that a discussion was had and permission was granted or that your were told you didn't need permission so this doesn't come back to bite you in the ass

not that I can recall at the moment but it's something to keep in mind when working on personal projects that may become moneymakers or have large influence if things go right. and I'm not positive but if they wanted to make a case for it I could see them saying even just using university provided internet to upload shit to a git, counts as using university resources. now obviously this would be very bad publicity for the university but if enough was at stake you can bet they'll be wanting either a piece of the pie or the whole pie.

Now my question: Is bluetooth on Windows 8.1 basically useless?
I have bluetooth on my wifi card and it's enabled, drivers work etc. but when it connects to my phone it can't transfer any files. I found out it's like a security thing with a very complex workaround. So useless there.

Now I'm trying to connect my portable speaker and Windows can't even find the device. Spent like ten minutes trying. Refreshing, restarting etc but never showed up.

1.) Why is bluetooth so fucking retarded
2.) Why is it even more retarded on Windows PC?

>>58359820
Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Yoga is 500 bux more, but it's a Thinkpad, so it's worth it.

>>58358969
You can ask on /diy/ but the consensus seems to be that they're not that useful. You can make cool models but trying to make a tool or utensil or a replacement for something that broke is futile because the plastic isn't very robust.

If I sent back a motherboard to MSI and ordered a replacement, they would only send a replacement if they confirmed that the original motherboard was broken, right?

The system is called RMA; they only send you a new part once the one they get in has been confirmed broken in a way that they can't prove isn't covered by RMA.

True, refurbished is always an option.

>>58359938
You were talking about quality which I took to mean thermal and build quality. If your targets are that low, you can probably use Acer.

Yes, but what flaw in the models I posted holds you back from recommending them?

I have a c++ code that I wrote in a custom text editor, that I'm compiling from the cmd with VS using the "cl" command.

How do I change the Icon of the exe file that the compiler outputs? I have my .rc file, how do I add/link it to my project?

I can't just open the project in Visual Studio and change it from there because I don't have an actual VS project.

Generally electronics that've passed their initial burn-in period (usually 6 months) will survive for a long time. That said, when it does break, expect it to be the capasitors.

Most failures I've had after 5 years was down to BGA balls fracturing due to gravitational stresses.

Is it worth building your own PC if you're not into video games and mainly use it as an internet machine?

The most intensive things I use my computer for are encoding webms and watching films. Is it more economic for someone like me to buy a prebuilt computer or is it /always/ better to build your own?

is SVP still the best option for interpolated 60fps?

>>58360153
Command prompt. Easiest way is simply to go to the folder you want to do it for, hold shift, right click on empty space, open command window here. Can also enter cmd in search or run bars.

>>58360306
>Is it more economic
What do you mean?

Is it cheaper? Generally yes. Labor costs money. But doing it yourself costs time and knowing how to put things together correctly.
Is it better? If it's the same parts, it isn't better.
If you like building things and doing puzzles, I'd say build it. If don't like that, then buy it.

>>58360306
No. Get a chromebook.

>>58360321
Stop interpolating video, it looks fucking awful.

>>58360306
Just buy one premade, much less hassle and you get a complete warranty.

Just fresh installed a windows 7 for the first time on a laptop. Is there a better way on finding and updating drivers, a program of something?

>>58360385
you get much longer warranties on parts from legit manufacturers.

thats really the gain from building your own vs premades. premades will typically be full of garbage parts from literally no-name brands, even "important parts" like the PSU and ram.

>dude HP sux
>get a Dell lmao
ignore this troll, anon

>>58360417
When it fails just get them to replace it under warranty or trade it in for a new one when it gets old.

>>58360452
>bigbox company
>replacing it under warranty after the exchange period is up

EL

OH

EL

>>58360302
>Latitude
>not Inspiron

>>58360380
chromebooks aren't cheep anymore anon, they're now overpriced shit

>>58360432
You're fucking retarded. Business grade laptops are where it's at, be it Dell, HP, or Lenovo. The Latitude line is simply my preferred one of the three so that's the line I recommended.

>>58360572
>consumer-grade trash
Ew

>>58360591
>Ew
>paying $300 more for "business tax"
double ew

>>58360607
lmao what are you smoking nigga

latitudes are pure trash, hinges will break in a couple months of work transporting

>>58360637
So why the fuck would you tell anon to get a Latitude?

>>58360607
>thinking the only difference is the price
Top kek, go be braindead elsewhere.

>>58360637
They've gone downhill? Damn, the last few laptops I've had were Latitudes and they've been amazing.

>>58360650
He didn't, dumbass.

>>58360727
>they've been amazing
that's what you thought because you're a pleb

>>58360676
It's L I T E R A L L Y the same shit with a higher price tag.

>>58360749
No, it's because Dell used to make top notch laptops.

>>58360778
Maybe now but that wasn't always the case.

Since you guys are fighting so much, original anon here. If I'm not going to do gaming and the most I'll probably do is video watching, is an integrated graphics card ok? Or should I get a GT920 added on.

Yes I'm looking at a Latitude.

>>58360829
You'll be fine

If I were to hook up hard drives to another computers(pc2) power supply and have the data cables hooked up to my motherboard(pc1) (while the other computer(pc2) is running), would I be able to read them on my computer(pc1)? Is there any fault in this?

Only asking because I can't fit any more hard drives in my main pc (properl) and the sata power cables I have are not long enough to niggerrig them up another way inside the case.

My mom just bought a Windows PC
What antivirus software should I install? She pretty much has no idea what she's doing.

>>58360970
Nope, that'll work just fine. You can even make use of http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-power-up-an-ATX-Power-Supply-without-a-PC/ to power the harddisks with just a secondary PSU.

>>58361016
No antivirus program is going to protect her from doing stupid stuff. Teach her how to be paranoid.

>>58360970
Hard drives interface with PSUs directly. The motherboard is not involved. If you want to power on a supplemental PSU without connecting it to another motherboard, it can be powered on by sticking a paperclip or LED or something in the green and any black on the big board connector.

>>58361031
Even if that were the case, I doubt she'd be better off without an antivirus program than with one

Green is PS-On, black is GRND. Connecting them powers on the PSU.

>>58361064
Sure, but WIndows Defender is as good as any other except that it doesn't have definitions dating back 30 years because Micorosoft realizes that a 30 year old virus won't run on Windows.

>>58361044
>>58361031
I'd just be using the motherboard to power on the PSU since it's already hooked up and everything. Everything is going to be held in a separate case so I figured I'd just use something that's already mostly together.

>>58361085
Well, in a perfect world you'd make sure both computers were properly grounded, to avoid short-circuits or ESD migrating from one to another, but beyond that, knock yourself out.

>>58361016
Malwarebytes

>>58360407
Mostly just let the system do it alongside windows updates

>>58359947
They're both good laptops. HP has had some issue with their casings in the past, but that doesn't mean it's still a problem. I'd look up reviews of similar models and see if people have been having any problems

>>58361064
Bitdefender has some of the best detection rates, and the free version is old-person proof. Also set dns to norton and make her everyday user account limited.

>>58360829
Integrated graphics is pretty capable these days. It can even pull off some low settings gaming.

What's a good VESA wall mount or desk mount that can extend out to about 20"?

I want to save some desk space.

>>58361228
Problem is though, I have almost no drivers including internet ones. Was just wondering if there was a better way than manually trying to find and install each and every one of them.

>>58361016
But anon Windows 10 is the worst virus you can have.

>>58361434
Go to your mobo/PCs webpage and get them there. Are you not able to get internet on that computer over ethernet? Do jumpdrives work?

Is there a "perfect mouse sensor"?

If not, what's the best we've got so far?

Is there any reason I shouldn't pick up a $240 Fury now? Vega is still months away and I'm tired of waiting.
