Responding
to a question about computer hardware and drivers.
Posting:
Do not respond with rude or negative comments.
Responding with Google it, buy a new computer, insults or any mention of pornography, does not help the person with there problem and only causes spam.
If you do not know the exact solution, do not respond with dangerous steps.
Giving suggestions is a great way to help, but giving wrong suggestions that could damage computer components or make the problem even worse is not needed.
