please sir,i use a dell latitude e6400 and when i checked online for the specs i was told that it has a nvidia quadro 160m gpu but whenever i run dxdiag or check display adapters i only see intel mobile(r) graphic 4 series express,pls help me is it that my laptop didnt come with it?

What you saw Online doesn't necessarily have to be the same with what you have.

The graphics card your laptop has is Intel's.
Though it could have the two undecided ...But it can't work simultaneously.

This could be caused by a third-party program, a malware infection or faulty drivers.

You should consider reviewing your installed apps, perform a malware scan, update drivers and also disable runtime broker.

To disable runtime broker:
Go to Start menu, select Settings, then open System, select Notifications & Actions. You should turn off the option "Show me tips about Windows". Reboot your PC.

same thing, but I noticed normal ram usage on my guest account I.e(35%) but on my main account it will reduce the ram to(20%) after double clicking a movie or copying files and start rising and falling(20% to 90%)

Go to Control Panel, select Bluetooth then Uninstall. In case you couldn't find it, you might have uninstalled it unknowingly after system upgrade or something else.

To install, check online for Bluetooth driver that's compatible with your device. If you still have the installation file in your PC, it should be in your "C" Drive, e.g, "C:\SWTOOLS\DRIVERS\BTOOTH\FOLDER_NAME\Setup.exe".

Alternatively

Go to the Device Manager, Expand Bluetooth, and you will see the model of the bluetooth adapter that is installed, click on Update or Uninstall.

You can also check "Network and Internet" > "Network Connections" > "Bluetooth Network Connection", right click and Enable (if Disabled).


I want to believe the Bluetooth has worked well in the pa.
Don't know if it has worked well in the past, bought it last week, refurbished system. Tested everything but funny enough didn't test the Bluetooth feature. Ll try out what u suggested and ll get back to u. Thanks u v been helpful. I sincerely appreciate ur concern

Oh! OK. You're welcome.

It's also possible your PC doesn't have a built-in Bluetooth adapter, if that's the case...you should get a bluetooth usb adapter.

Ran a windows network diagnostic tests and the results are you have no preferred wireless network, a network cable isn't properly plugged in or may be broken, and problem with wireless adapter or access point. Could one of these be the cause of the Bluetooth problem. And I also went to device manager and did what u said. I expanded the Bluetooth, but didn't c the model adaptor there. Instead I saw generic Bluetooth adapter and Microsoft Bluetooth enumerator only. And when I clicked on both of them, their device status read, this device is working properly. But it isnt

Yes, It could be. Like i said earlier, I think the PC didn't come with a built-in Bluetooth adapter and according to the diagnostic test, I doubt if you can connect to a wireless network (Wi-Fi) either. Can you?

Did you check "Network and Internet" > "Network Connections" to enable?

Open command prompt as an administrator, then type ipconfig /all and hit Enter, let me see what you have.

Suddenly, i noticed that when i plugged it d charging indicator will b blinking; instead of it 2 stay in Red colour when it waas charging, it was showing Red nd Green colour at d same time which means it is charging nd @d same time, it is full.

It may be your battery or the charger, try to find another charger to test it or another battery.

Did you mind the space before "/all". It should be ipconfig spacebar /all

Note: I didn't say you should type the "spacebar", but punch it on your keyboard.

Try these options:

Go to Mouse Settings>Buttons tab>Double click speed>Slide cursor towards Fast>Click on folder with your left click button.

Your left click button should be OK if it opens well.

Otherwise, slide cursor back towards Slow.

Alternatively,

Go to Device Manager>Expand Universal Serial Bus Controllers>Right click USB Root Hub> Click Properties.

In Properties box, click the Power Management tab, Uncheck Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power .

Note: Repeat these steps for each USB Root Hub present.

having a little problem switching over to admin, I have no idea how to switch over to admin, instead I tried it as a user and this is what it says: the default is to display only in address, subnet mask and default gateway for each adapter bound to tcp/ip. For release and renew, if no adapter name is specified, then the ip address leases for all adapters bound to tcp/ip will be released or renewed.
Example: ipconfig... show information
Ipconfig all... show detailed info
Ipconfig/renew....renew all adapters
Ipconfig /renew El*... renew any connection that has its name starting with el.
Ipconfig/ allcompartments/ all.... show detailed info about all compartments
Sir, I left out about 2 examples.
