Plus, basically every laptop out there today comes with at least a 300Mbps adapter that actually reaches halfway across the room, mostly because they tuck decent antennas right behind the screen. A little USB stick without an external antenna? It’s got pathetic range.
It would've been way smarter to just grab a faster, beefier WN722N v.2 with an actual antenna—it probably would've even saved him some cash.
ps:
And if I'm reading the situation right and he's planning on messing around with Kali later, he's gonna be stuck spinning his wheels.😁

Exactly this.

The guy basically grabbed a NIC that actually supports IP sniffing, spoofing, and network monitoring. Most of those standard cards that come pre-installed on a laptop usually lack those specific capabilities altogether. With this setup, he can definitely capture packets, and if he actually knows what he's doing, he might even be able to slip into a network here or there.

fadedsailor17 said:well, if that were the case, the graphics card wouldn't be working at all, but I think it actually is functioning.

I mean, you really can't be certain, right? It might be that the motherboard has finally given up the ghost, or maybe it's the graphics card itself. I guess I had a similar headache once because the PCI slot was getting loose, so I'd just lose the signal every few minutes.

The 1/0 error hasn't been bothering me much lately,

but I wonder if I should try resetting the BIOS?
Anyway, I suppose I'll take a look at the audio issues next.
I actually stumbled upon a thread on some forum about this exact kind of trouble, and they suggested the graphics card might have kicked the bucket. So, I tried launching a game—it actually seems to run totally fine—so I decided to install Speccy to see what the data would show. Everything looks okay on paper, except for one thing... it's claiming my motherboard temperature is 127°C!?!? That can't be right!

It’s definitely possible that the PCI slot on your motherboard has failed. You should have two available, so maybe try moving the card over to the other slot to see if that fixes things.

fadedsailor17 said:No, honestly, the monitor is still just blinking at me. I even tried plugging it directly into the motherboard, but it’s the exact same result...

I was wondering, what kind of cables are you using to hook it up to the TV? Are you using the same port on the graphics card?

Is the PC getting stuck again on that 0/1 switch?

Maybe try connecting it to a TV instead, and while you're at it, check the BIOS settings to see how the video is configured—you might even need to reset everything to default if things seem off. Also, it might be helpful to listen closely to see if you can hear any beep codes during the boot-up error.

fadedsailor17 said:it's hooked up to the TV now—everything seems to be working just fine🤷

Maybe if you try switching it back now, everything might just start working properly again.

brightbadger57 said:So I click on the network, punch in my password, hit connect... and then it just sits there saying Secured, not connected. There's this little ⚠️ icon hanging out on the Wi-Fi symbol and nothing works. Can't even get a webpage to load. It's basically dead...

Well, look, we really need to know who actually made the laptop and which specific version you're running, and also if it works okay with other Wi-Fi networks. Honestly, without more details, trying to guess what's going wrong is probably about as effective as trying to read a crystal ball.

Anyway, those Ralink cards tend to have some real headaches when it comes to drivers for Windows 10, and looking at this screenshot, it seems like...

https://prnt.sc/o3y96i

your drivers are likely the culprit here.

I'd suggest completely uninstalling whatever drivers you currently have installed, and then downloading some fresh ones—but maybe don't just rely on Windows Update or the card manufacturer's site. Instead, try finding the exact laptop model and the specific card model, then grab the official drivers directly from the laptop manufacturer's website and install those.

In any case, it would be far more productive to actually discuss the core matter at hand rather than getting bogged down in whether one prefers the nonsense of Tolstoy over Schopenhauer, instead of debating the nonsense of Dostoevsky versus Nietzsche. 😛

Anyway, you should just stick to 🙂)

Oh, I think it might just happen. I guess you could say the author handles things somewhat like Pupovac does in American politics—she’s essentially an ethnic businessman. In her own way, she seems to be a gender-based businessman, at least that's the impression she left on me.

Kate Gonzalez11 said:So,

I just picked up a new Gigabyte Aorus AD27QD monitor.
Under the monitors section in my Developer Manager, it’s just showing up as a Generic PnP Monitor.
My Windows is fully updated to version 1903, I've updated the chipset and GPU drivers, and I even flashed the latest firmware onto the monitor itself. I've already tested both DisplayPort and HDMI connections.

The error message is:

Device DISPLAY\GBT2701\5&2a0a636e&6&UID4359 was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match.

Last Device Instance Id: DISPLAY\GBT2700\1&8713bca&0&UID0
Class Guid: {4d36e96e-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
Location Path:
Migration Rank: 0xF000FFFF0000F100
Present: false
Status: 0xC0000719

Does anyone have any advice? Honestly, I'm starting to feel pretty frustrated. Microsoft wasn't helpful at all, and now I'm stuck waiting on a response from Gigabyte...

I have a bit of a feeling that maybe something might have gone a little sideways during the setup. Perhaps you could try finding some kind of utility that can read the EDID just to see what information the monitor is actually reporting back to Windows.

Zachary Mendoza2 said:Look, you aren't some malicious person, so I suppose anything can be forgiven. Still, I’d suggest paying attention if several users over on the IRS forums tell you that you're talking nonsense; it might just be that they have a point. I guess persistent rambling about silly things can be just as punishable as posting stuff with bad intentions. As far as I'm concerned, it's perfectly fine if you get a partial ban, I just didn't want to say I hadn't warned you.
Nica, please do this man a favor.

Thanks.

Regarding what other users are saying, I guess it really depends on which specific users we're talking about, right? 😁

And since I may have been trolling just a little bit, I should probably apologize for that. 👍

Sending my very best regards and warmest wishes to you all 😁

Could someone please lift my partial access to the natural forums?

It isn't that I have some burning desire to post over there all the time, but honestly, it’s just such a hassle having to log in and out every single time I want to check what the IRS is up to.

I mean, aside from that one little hiccup, I haven't really done anything foolish on the IRS site.

🤷

Richard Ross11 said:Well, if French is actually his native language, then I suppose there might be a little bit of a connection to "Sarl"...
At least, that’s how it sounds to those of us coming from the hilly parts of the North America.. 🙂

If you ask Vuk, he’d probably say it’s Šarl. And honestly, a šarlatan would be his perfect colleague.

vividlynx68 said:Lando Norris seems to be looking absolutely fantastic. It’s probably a bit tough to really judge how George Russell is performing in that absolute wreck of a car, but honestly, seeing him alongside Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc makes me think we might actually have a lineup of incredible drivers for the future. I guess even Alexander Albon isn't looking too bad either.

It really is such a shame that Norris isn't driving for one of the top-tier teams right now. Or maybe if he didn't have Fernando Alonso breathing down his neck while dealing with Sainz being his protégé. I suspect the Spanish influence in the paddock might just eat him alive.

steelmaker83 said:I suppose McLaren is finally showing some real progress, and they'll likely be fighting hard for that 4th spot in the constructors' standings. If they actually had a top-tier driver behind the wheel, I think they'd be much more competitive, but as it stands, this is probably how things will play out through the end of the season.

I really do believe they'll have an absolute superstar driving for them next year. 👍

The little bird just flew away!🤣

stormybadger8 said:It was honestly such a fantastic race, though I have to say, the finish felt like a bit of a letdown, almost like a total anticlimax 🤦

Just typical Italian business.

Norris 👍

ha ha ha ha

Classic Ferrari behavior right there, I guess.

😵

neonfox65 said:It honestly seems to me like you might be nursing a bit of a complex regarding him and Tibi. I suppose you all seem to think that he or I actually care about being the youngest winner of the PP🤣—but if I may ask, does achieving that somehow translate into extra points or a championship title? It feels like everyone driving for Red Bull Racing or their junior teams is suddenly better than Max in your eyes, and I guess that level of resentment just doesn't seem to have any limits🙂

Just a heads up, it’s a bit like how Mom wanted Max to DNF, but instead, she ended up getting Sainz to DNF. Let's hope we don't end up with a DNF for the mustache🙂

I have a feeling Lando Norris might be the one to break the record👍

cosmiccyclist8 said:they're drawing these long-term conclusions that seem to shift every single time qualifying rolls around 🤣

Well, I don't think you can really wait for qualifying to see that. I mean, honestly, seeing Sebastian Vettel struggle like that is basically a definitive diagnosis in itself, if you ask me.
