Hello House of Techie,
Please, since I've upgraded my pc from Win 8.1 to Win 10 Home Edition my brightness adjustment is working abnormal i.e inverse function: dim button make it bright while bright button makes it dim. What can I do?

It is unprofessional and a technical bluff to advice someone who is not trained to disassemble laptop devices to do so by themselves. Of course you should know better that an accidental pulling-off of a motherboard chip can put paid to the life of the laptop.

Even at times , trained engineers get into trouble just by disassemblying a laptop and coupling it back only to find out it has developed more issues.
So let's be careful on the advice we give clients here .

Taking out the fan is probably one of easiest replacements to undertake.
If he feels it's too technical, he would seek professional advice..............
If he has no clue, YouTube videos are plentiful to teach and direct...............

deji2009:








It is a 50/50 situation. I wouldn't advice someone to open his or her laptop; the minium i
can ask a user to do is open the memory or hard drive compartent (if within reach). If anything goes wrong
such as no display, no power and so on. The user will blame the technician. Although the user cant
get the technician because all we do here is give advice and no one can physically blame us. However,
I will feel bad if something like that happen. We are all different and unique. To protect yourself, it would
be better to ask the user to take it to a technician.

Good morning house, pls I have an issue with my deskstop monitor, the colours are not displaying well, how do I resolve it? Thanks

win10:


Navigate to your graphic properties and customize your choice... to navigate, right click(as if you want to refresh) and then select your graphics options there
OK Sir, I will try that but I m thinking maybe its d graphic cable

win10:


Oops! sorry.. i thought it was a laptop.. Since it's a desktop, i should definitely be the VGA cable(the cable that connect the desktop to the monitor).

midps007:
i have changed the vga cable yet same thing, it displays but the colouration is different from the normal display

win10:


Ok.. the fault could either be from the monitor or from the desktop it'self. To be sure, try to connect the desktop to another monitor or to a TV(with the VGA cable). if it displays properly, then you can confidentially say it's the monitor's fault, but if it doesn't, you can also say it's the desktop fault.

chucksbadt:


how many users are on that system?
only the Administrator account is permitted to make modifications/install apps on a system
The easiest way to know the number of users on your system is by typing USERS on the start menu and then click MANAGE USER ACCOUNTS

midps007:
I have changed the monitor yet same thing so u mean the graphic card can never be the issue?

Abeg nairalanders make una reason my matter o. After my laptop sudenly stopped charging two days ago i had to take it to a local repair shop, the engineer there told me that the power Ic is burnt and he will have to replace it. Then he told me that it will cost 7000 naira, Pls is this price reasonable or am i about to be duped?
My laptop specs are: Dell inspiron 15R,
core i3
6GB Ram
500GB Rom
2.0ghz
64bit
intel HD4000

sotall:
Well the cost of fixing laptops varies from engineer
to engineer. Though there is a maximum amount
which an engineer should charge to fix your laptop
and this depends on the fault, every engineer
names their price according to their own terms.
Hence all you have to do is bargain. if you feel it is
expensive, try another engineer and compare
prices.
On the other hand, if you are in Lagos, you can
bring it to my office at Ikeja, my charges are
pocket-friendly and affordable

Lionbite:

how much will you do it for me
