    Backups, backups, backups. You should never have only one drive with important info on it! Not only do I have at least 2 backups of everything in my home, I also have a complete backup HDD laying...
  2. [ubuntu] Re: Laptop keyboard is partially unresponsive when connected to AC (22.04)

    That charger converts AC to DC. It also converts either 110V or 220V down to something less than 20V. If a diode went bad, then the AC isn't being totally converted to DC. If the dropping coil...

  10. Re: Flickering screen and screen going blank issue

    I don't know what told you that the 470 driver was recommended. And why the server one?? I would go with the 535 driver and NOT the server one. nVidia's site says that you can even use a newer one...
  11. [ubuntu] Re: Need help to investigate screen flickering and then going blank problem
