Disk drive 100% help
Having an issue with my hp 17-by1022 I bought from micro center a year ago. Unfortunately walking into my office my cord caught the door handle and yanked the laptop out of my hand.

Black Screen Issue with Windows Power Settings
So I've been experiencing this weird issue that whenever my monitors turn off (doesn't happen when I change it to never turn off in Power Settings) the display drivers crash. My GPU is the RX 6600 XT. I RMA'd the card before and the manufacturer said it wasn't the issue so I'm at a loss to what could be causing the…

Spam email or someone using my email when shopping
I recently received an email that contained a receipt for items I did not purchase. I don't know if this is phishing scam or someone chose to hide their identity using my email. How do I report either one to MicroCenter?

New Samsung Odyssey G7 having DisplayPort connection issues
I recently purchased a Samsung Odyssey G7 28" 4K/144hz monitor [LS28AG700NNXZA] from MC and I've been having a weird issue with it: About once a day, the monitor will lose the DisplayPort input, go black for just 1-3 seconds - and immediately reconnect. A minor inconvenience, but very annoying. I've made sure the cables…

Can you rebuild your prebuilt in a new case?
Hello! I've had my G468 for a while now and was thinking about changing my setup. I was planning on just transferring the components into a new case. I don't see anything wrong with doing that, or how it would mess anything up, but I just want to make sure it's okay! P.S. I believe I don't have a warranty on it.

ASUS VG27AQL1A Went Berzerk!
I bought this monitor about a week ago and up until tonight it has been fantastic.

I don't even have to google it to know…
