Hey mastodon
Most of you are tech savvy
My SSD that has a windows 11 install on it is reading as "NTFS" and refuses to boot. Instead it loops trying and failing the automatic repairs

Every time i do an "sfc /scannow" on command prompt it says it finds and repairs corrupt files.
It is lying to me.

I've tried 'dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth' Doesn't work

Does anyone have any idea on how i can fix this?

Het is iets met de drivers of de geluidskaart gok ik, maar ik gebruik al sinds 2001 geen #Windows meer. Dus kan ik op afstand haar niet van dienst zijn. Dus Mastodon; doe je werk!

Does anyone have ideas for how to fix a laptop after its screen was taken off? We don't want to put the screen back on bc it's broken, but snipping those wires made it so the computer won't start.
Apparently the wires they snipped were bundles of insulated wires and there was a bit of a spark when they snipped them, so I'm afraid there was a short. Would that make the laptop unfixable?

Fellow IT folk... what's the going rate (CAD$) for miscellaneous IT work? Setting up computers, troubleshooting, email issues, website issues, etc... Been out of the sideline/freelancing for a bit and curious.

The time has come.
I need your techy help!!
I was given a monitor from the office to plug in my laptop.
The laptop doesn't realise I have a monitor.
I thought it was a cable problem so I bought a new cable.
Same issue.
Any troubleshooting idea??
TIA

Can someone ? trying to burn a CD in xfburn on my laptop. My internal optical drive is faulty (tried to install an OS from it and it was super slow and failed multiple times before I found my external drive).

The program does not identify my external optical drive as a possible burn device. How do I get it to display the external drive?

Does anyone here duel boot Windows and Linux? I think I did it wrong and am figuring out how to fix my mistake! If anyone can help me I would be very thankful! #linux #ubuntu #windows #pc #computerhelp #askfedi #duelboot #computer #helpme

If anyone is super bored or wants to ... could you tell me what the risks of running FSCK are and what "Seems to contain garbage" means?

I used a live cd os to grab my data so I'm all good. I just want to unfuck my disk.

For added context when I turned on my laptop I went to open Libreoffice. Libreoffice did not open after several minutes and clicks (firefox did tho)... rebooted and it gave me this.

That's it.
My fucking desktop will not stay on.
I need help.
I need a long term computer that will last, but I'm not in any situation to save up a thousand dollars, or even 500 dollars, to be able to afford anything I can just find in a store. I need something that will run Windows 10, with 512gb memory and probably a 4 core processor, I don't exactly know.
My budget is either 300$ up front or 75$ every month for x amount of time.
My goal is to stretch it out as long as possible, but this machine is gonna be my work AND leisure center, so it's gonna get used ALOT.

And no, I do not live anywhere remotely close to a MicroCenter.

How do you all recommend I go about this?

Ik zat daarnet aan mijn laptop en het geluid werkt niet meer. Het staat op. Muziek speelt. YouTube werkt. Toch krijg ik geen klank. Volgens mijn instellingen staat alles aan. Dus het zou moeten werken maar het werkt niet. #computerhelp #goedeavond

Android15 beta 3 - Private space is missing for me. For me, there is still one tab saying "Security & privacy", and the option is not there.

When I type private space in the search bar on the home screen, I don't find it there.

When I search within settings, I don't find it there either. any help / any tips for me? thank you.
