IT seems to be causing my SSD hard drive to run at overheating speeds computer only 6 months old I heard you should uninstall it just looking for other opinions THanks for any help
I was not able to find a driver for my version. Installation: Windows 11 pro, international English, 64 bit G441
I've had my pc for around four years and in that time I've never had a reason to move my os to my SSD. However, my hard drive is starting to fill up thus making my boot time longer. Is there an easy way to migrate my os to my SSD without having to download a third-party software?
I have a new G441 and will be copying 1TB of files from old system's drive to new drive via a USB backup disk. I'd like to retain the file's original creation and modified dates? If I do a simple COPY with File Explorer the dates are all changed to today's date. Is there another simple way to do this? Thanks

The drive is initialized and has a partition on it, I can see it…

I have Windows 11, and want to STOP using OneDrive and go 100% to DropBox.

I don't have a Fn key, and honestly wouldn't…
