Hey guys, computer ???
Old HP win7 machine, new 32" monitor, RGB adapter to the new HDMI? input....this monitor is a Best Buy Insignia brand.....and so when the computer feels lonely, it wants to shut down....
being as it's a LED screen in the DIM/brightness setting, they call it backlight....I want to keep the computer from turning off/shutting down.... so instead of cutting off the monitor, to let the computer shut down the ethernet cable instead, ie....disconnect from the .net so to reduce the time for the idiots have to mess with my machine...... Like windoze this morning, they went blue screen right in the middle of something took over the machine, warning to not shut down....screw THAT!!! turned off the power, waited a minit, and it came back on with the blue update screen, I tried it again, same shit, hit the reset button, same shit....pissed me off but I forced to let them have their way.....bastards, don't update my DAMN MACHINE, it's slow enough already..... so how to achieve the above?? |

Set updates to notify you, NOT to install.

I don't know how else to describe it man, sorry.....it's like the hard drive is all the time wirring and clacking, when nothing is going on.....like the machine is diverted to doing anything else BUT what I want....I have Malware Bites, and whatever MSFT has forced the machine to take on..... |

ok 2 things:
1) download and run ccleaner 2) download and run malwarebytes if you need help with that let me know. let me know when you're done. And then we'll move on to other fixes. |
