Help some retard handed me a laptop stuck in the Windows 8.1 repair loop.
The SSD isn't on the boot menu anymore just the fucking wangblows boot manager. How do I get it back on there? What would the path for the boot option be?
So I need some help. For some reason, I am blacklisted by 9 different spam checkers like BARRACUDA or UCEPROTECTL1, and I have no idea why. I only use my PC for games, shitposting, news and learning programming, rarely sending mail or files. I scanned for viruses already with Malware Antibytes and with Windows Defender, but nothing was found. I have a Dynamic IP and I live in a student flat, so maybe I share my IP with others? (I have my own cable and router though). How can I remove myself from blacklists?

i have a slightly older version of skype, the one right before the visual update (6.21 i think)
they keep pushing me to update but i don't want to, and now they've gone and disabled skype home. how do i get it back without updating?
also how do i get rid of those update popups? every solution i've found is only temporary and the longest one lasted only a week.
What's the best free password manager?
I'm thinking of moving from Skype, and I looked into a little bit, and I found four different alternatives.
First is Telegram. This looked quite good until I learned that you need a phone number to use it.
Second is Discord. This looks good but i'm skeptical because it seems like it's too group chat centric.
Then LINE. I dunno much about it other than i have a skype friend that uses it also and says it's better than Skype.
Lastly wire.com . This is apparently made by the co-founder of Skype or something. Looks really promising.
Can't decide.
What is by far THE best software for creating a norton ghost-like system image of a HDD fully encrypted with truecrypt? Do keep in mind i want/need to transfer the system image from one encrypted PC to another for storage reasons.
The reason i'm asking is because my system HDD is getting too hot and although i plan on putting in the hdd fan quite soon it also makes these grinding noises occasionally now which has me quite worried and i just want to be on the safe side on this, having a full system image at hand would at least give me the knowledge that i have most of my shit backed up properly (right now i've basically just thrown files that i think are important on an external HDD, but what i want is a system image that i can copy onto a new hdd so that i can just continue where i left off in case my current setup fails for some reason)

>>54753775
>>54753775
Oh yeah and also, does it backup the system image in unencrypted form? So when i get a new unencrypted HDD and then install the image recovery software to put the old image on it, it needs to be re-encrypted again even though truecrypt is already installed on said system image, right?

You don't need to have all of the plugs in a cable plugged into something. Its going to pull only as much power as it needs.

This is by far the most annoying thing I've experienced with my computer:
Recently, my CPU and mothetboard have been running hot, to the point where it just shuts off obviously from overheating. How the fuck do I manage to keep these temps under control while I wait for a new cooler? I tried to put new thermal paste on but it has barely made a difference. What if the cooler doesn't decrease the temperatures?
>>54754853
desktop/laptop?
is it dusty?
does it have a good airflow?
avg temperatures of the place you live or room?
>>54754853

>>54754902

>>54755011
>I cleaned out the tower
You need to clean the cooler itself, not the tower externally. More than 6 months have passed since the last cleansing?

I meant I did that as well, sorry to be vague. I cleaned the heatsink and all the tower but it's so rising and decreasing like crazy.

Are you sure the metal cooler is properly attached? Are you sure the fan isn't being blocked by a loose cable? Is there any strange sound?
Can ICs burn? Do they need to use resistors like LEDs?

Yes, I made sure. It's securely in place, I think the fan is just shit. It started going bad a couple days ago and it's a stock one, too. Just purchased a new cooler to try to solve the problem.

a local NAS is really more for media access across your local network

I think I did something that makes sharing my desktop impossible, no matter what I do I can't get any of the folders to share on network, even though I can read my laptop files and browse through those just fine, I can't go the other way around. I think I might be missing something that would have this all work normally but somewhere along the line I deleted/altered it or something.
Most curious thing is going into network and not being able to browse own computer, but can get into the laptop and do remote desktop or whatever I want
>>54757418
I get the feeling this used to happen a lot more, or maybe I just unconsciously don't even try to bother whenever I come across something even remotely like this

This is a more common thing since around 2010 when seo was more important then your data on the site.So they had to "hide" the data from prying eyes,but still allow google to see them and index them for more traffic.
I dont even bother with shit like that anymore,its always somewhere else down the page

I've been using mumble recently, feels good to be out of the skype botnet.
I was gifted an old monitor for free, it has a d-sub port only but it says DVI is supported without having a port somehow. My graphics card has two DVI-d, an HDMI and a display port so VGA isn't an option.
I bought a VGA to DVI converter but nothing shows up from my PC. When I use pure VGA with my old laptop it works instantly. What's the problem? I'd like to use it as a second monitor but this is such a headache

>>54759565
What kinda converter you got?
>>54759565
Does the monitor has an input selector?(the buttons on the bottom side)
>>54759610It does this by reading values from a multitude of sensors within the engine bay, interpreting the data using multidimensional performance maps (called lookup tables), and adjusting the engine actuators accordingly. Before ECUs, air-fuel mixture, ignition timing, and idle speed were mechanically set and dynamically controlled by mechanical and pneumatic means.
>>54759588
It was one of pic related, I asked a friend and they said DVI-D won't work, only DVI-I cables but that can't be right. My GPU doesn't support DVI-I anyway
>>54759610
I tried pressing the buttons along the bottom but no menu popped up, nothing seemed to happen but it does pop up with ANALOG INPUT when I go full VGA so there has to be some way for digital input right?
>>54759588
Oops didn't attach pic
>>54759674
Shouldn't you have pins on the connector?
>>54759960
Ah, I see, it's a monitor sided one. Yes it will not work - its a passive VGA-to-DVI-I converter. It's just passing the analog signal which DVI-D port is not taking and cant process. You need an active converter to have VGA -> DVI-D connctions and those are not cheap.

Found a solution, it involves copying all the files over from the hard drive to another hard drive formatted for exFAT files. Is there a more efficient way?
Is there a good bootable image for testing a laptop before purchase? I'm going to buy one cash in hand, and, from what I understand, there's no pre-installed OS.
Before I buy it, I want to boot into something to test functionality, so a bootable image that contains a few burn-in programmes would be best.
Is there a good way for me to gain confidence in the hardware without having a long burn-in? I won't be able to do an overnight memtest or anything like that.
>>54760143
I dont think there is much youc an do without stress testing it.
memtest and prim95
>>54760222
I suppose a 30 min prime95 shouldn't be too hard, boot into a linux CD, and run it from a USB stick.
Does memtest have any fast test modes, that are likely to show up hardware defects? We're meeting in a neutral location, so whilst I'm sure he'll sit around for an hour, I can't imagine much longer.

Checking back in, I added some air holes.

What are you doing.Stahp PLZ stahp
I've decided to wait until the 1070 is out before buying a graphics card. But should I buy the rest of my computer components now, or wait until then too?
>>54760305
Wait, unless there's a phenomenal deal.
>>54760305
god damn nigga
Do you buy a prius and then buy a tesla a month later?
Fuck this intel mentality
You dont buy stuff with the notion of replacing it...
>>54760320
no no. I'm building a computer. Should I get everything except the graphics card and just hold onto the parts for a month?
And I just realized that would fuck with any warranties/return policies, so I shouldn't. Thanks /g/.

I fell for the rolling release meme, half of the programs I use for school have shitty bugs. Today I lost an entire page of my research paper due to Evince's inconsistency in saving (I was planning it inside an annotation :^)). What stable distro has the best package manager and biggest repository? I will go with Debian if I have to although I would like to hear some other suggestions.

You dont need lame tier memes to tell someone to dont do something stupid.
Stop acting stupid.

Got resolved. ISP got our backs this time. Wasn't anything me or my family downloaded. Someone ain't using my internet anymore.
Why does Debut video capture stop recording sound after a while? It doesn't do it all the time and I also sometimes I have to fiddle with the settings for it to even be able to record from the speakers despite not changing them prior to them not working

If I were able to copy the contents of an entire PS3/PS4 bluray disk, would I be able to write it back to another bluray disk and have it work on the machine?
I know the answer will be 'no', but can anyone explain why?
I bought a phone last week, it said it had 4GB of memory (with 2,5gb free) but it has like 2 partitions, one says "internal storage" with 1,27gb and there's another one called "phone storage" with 1,22gb. I just downloaded Whatsapp, updated Facebook, and that stuff and one or two other apps (a game and Twitch app) and it already tells me that there's not enough space when i try to download another app. As you can see, i don't know shit about phones, but as far as i can understand there's a partition called phone storage, that can only be used for pics, music, and all that stuff, and only 1,27gb for apps (which is literally nothing, probably with next updates it's gonna be full)
What can i do? Can i somehow use that 1,22gb partition to storage apps also? Did i lose my money?
>>54760526
Thank you.
>>54760884
I've never since this.But i'd imagine the first partition is for system apps etc.And the phone storage being media.If you can,see if you can change the folders in any media app,and see where it is pointed.
>>54760884
Because the internal storage is also split on other partitions.
App partition, image/video partition, audio, downloads, cache, "extras".
Yes you did lose your money for not buying a phone with a MicroSD slot and atleast 8GB memory.
A phone this specs is $99 or less.
Do I need any of this if I am using Gnome 3 instead of Unity?
>>54760951
It has a mSD slot, it's in (the phone came with a 4gb mSD, but i got mine with 16gb) and supposedly everything should go to mSD, but it doesn't for some reason. Am i doing it wrong? should apps download directly to mSD?
I suck at iptables
running centos 7
have an open wifi access point i toggle on with a script (3ds streetpass relay)
i want my firewall policy to:
- permit everything in/out of the ethernet interface p4p1
- deny all but specific MACs on wifi wpl2s0
and preferably, have a way to toggle between whatever the default Centos desktop policy is, and the streetpass relay policy.
The network HAS to be unsecured, by nature of streetpass, but i've managed to get it to permit specific MACs.
problem is, it also drops SSH from the ethernet interface for some reason.
looks something like this:iptables -P INPUT DROP
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i p4p1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i wpl2s0 -m mac --mac-source <3ds mac> -j ACCEPT
is it possible to upgrade from windows 10 pro to windows 10 enterprise using a torrent. I haven't made the upgrade yet but essentially the upgrade path would look like this:
windows 8.1 pro > windows 10 pro (free upgrade) > windows 10 enterprise
i'd rather not do a clean install and have to recover a lot of settings and tweaks that have been done over the years.
>>54760940
Change the folders?
>>54761033
Try ufw.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ufw
>>54761031
You can move apps to the MicroSD manually.
Also a recommendation disable automatic updates on most apps, they dont need them and if they are working correctly they just add ads to them and waste space, a lot.
Which phone you got? should have done a little research about which phone buy.
>>54761048
Check your media player to see where its storing media,or if your gallery has an option to show where to pick up images from
>>54761072
advice if i'm bent on getting w10 enterprise for some reason.
>>54761067
But, should i move apps like Whatsapp, Facebook, Snapchat and so to the SD? or should i leave them in the phone storage?
It's called Avvio, it's a shitty phone i got it for.. well if you're in the US it would be about 80 bucks (300.000 in my currency) i had never seen a phone like that (Avvio, enver heard of it) but it was cheap so i bought it just because.
This one (it's in spanish, but you can perfectly understand the importan info): >http://catalogo.claro.com.co/home/EquipoDetalle/Avvio-793
>>54761069
Will do that now.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 too, it's the one i use (the most), with 16GB of storage, but nit doesn't have any partition or something like that.
does this board ban you for shit posting?
why does my C drive keep filling up? i've cleared up many GB's of data and deleted temp files etc but it keeps filling up
>>54761218
only very rarely and only if you do very severe shitposting
>>54761141
Yes, specially games.
Some apps might have problems with slow SD cads.
But hey, having important apps in your phone is way more important.
